Hi friends! So blessed and excited you’ve found your way over to my page! I’d love to start by introducing myself, and sharing just a bit about me! I am a self-taught hair and makeup artist, that also was blessed with the opportunity to work with big beauty brands to gain knowledge of skin types, skin shades, and how to work with just about any client that walks through my door! I am a dog mom to my fur baby, Lane and a fiancé to the love of my life, Kent. Beauty is my passion and I’d love to get the opportunity to chat all about it with you and make your day an absolute success!

As a wedding photographer turned bride, finding the perfect hair and makeup person was VERY high on my priority list when I started wedding planning. I had worked with Ashley previously as she had done makeup for some of my past clients, and I loved her work. When I reached out to discuss my own wedding needs with her, she was wonderful! My wedding is out of town and she made the travel arrangements and costs easy and straightforward. I had my trial in preparation for my engagement photos and Ashley hit it out of the park, and has been there since to throw suggestions or idea photos my way, and keep in touch during the last of my wedding planning. She was easy to talk to and listened when I told her tweaks or suggestions I had throughout my trial. I would highly recommend working with Ashley for both hair and makeup!

Professional third wheel, people lover, incredibly loud singer, and consumer of too much popcorn and candy, in that combo. I'll sing & dance to just about any song, have approximately 12 shades of lipstick in my purse at a time, and take pride in drinking over a gallon of water a day… lol #hydrated. I’m obsessed with dogs and love booping their noses. Very blessed to have been running this business since I was 14 years old, and eagerly got my videographer husband, Scott on board once we got married in May 2018. Since then we've added 7 amazing associates to our team and are proud to serve clients well no matter what their day looks like.

Kiley is the BEST! The only photographer my husband and I will hire. Photography was a top priority for me on our wedding day and I knew I needed someone who was going to capture everything I wanted. You only get your wedding day once! I’m so happy we went with her, I can’t stop looking at the pictures! We added videography to our wedding and am so glad we did. They made us feel so confident and comfortable the entire time! I can’t wait to see what else she photographs for us over the years. Thanks again, Kiley!!

Light and bright, timeless photographs and videos for weddings and couples. ND, New England & CA based, available for travel. I describe myself as kind of Type A, kind of Type B. When it comes to photographing your wedding, I take a mixed approach of being a "fly on the wall" and guiding when appropriate. Lots of times my couples see their galleries and noticed things they had no clue even happened during the day. Candids and true documentary style photographs are what I strive to provide, as well as traditional photographs and poses.

Mariah, with Mariah R. Photography and Film, was so amazing and made me feel like a true princess/queen on my wedding day. Prior to the wedding day, she communicated openly with me about everything and made sure I was ready to go. She provided me with example timelines to help plan my day which was extremely helpful!!! Before heading to my location, she had messaged me and asked if I needed anything before she arrived. Once Mariah had gotten there, she calmed my nerves, reassured me when my anxiety was heightened during the chaos, and communicated with me about every thing I needed. She captured my day perfectly. She was my number one supporter through the whole day! I just can’t boast about her enough. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend her to capture your special moments. You seriously won’t regret it.

As both a photographer and writer, I've found my niche focusing on the bits that make up each love story and wedding day. The quiet moments, the fierce ones, the happy and nostalgic ones. While I make sure clients get all the shots they need, my focus is to simply capture the day as it happens, documenting the moments that will fade from memory as time goes by. My style has a modern twist on classic photojournalistic-style—true to life color with a bit of mood, at times sharp and others soft, with creative composition and approach.

Zoe did an amazing job with our wedding photos. She was super easy to work with and did a great job capturing genuine moments of our big day. 10/10 would recommend!

I never saw myself having a wedding. Never imagined the venue, the flowers, or the centerpieces. Never had any ideas about what my hair would look like or the dress I would wear. One night I was sitting with my mom and she said “I see you getting married on a beach somewhere, with just a few friends. Then afterwards we have a bonfire and music, and we laugh all night.” It’s like she was living in my brain- that felt so right to me- and I had never seen a wedding like that. I didn’t know that kind of thing was allowed? From then on that’s the only way I’ve pictured my wedding to be one day. That’s what I want to help my couples find.

I'd like to chat with you a bit and tell you a few things about myself. If I could, I'd be doing this in person while sitting on my front porch overlooking our breathtaking 64-acre ranch in Hillman, MN that God has blessed us with. So, imagine we are doing that while I invite you into my world for just a bit. I'm Mindi with Mindi Jennings Photography. My husband, my boys and I own Pleasant Pastures Weddings & Events on our ranch property. We also run a small herd of cattle and sheep. I have taken my love of photography and created a business. I like to keep things simple, authentic & fun with true to color photographs.

Always helpful, responds quickly, and produces amazing work.

Capturing your story and making your memories last forever is why I love what I do. I get to meet new people and experience their life for a brief moment. Learning about who or what they love. Sharing memories and experiences together.

Alex Rae Photography was a wonderful photographer for our wedding day. Alex was quick to respond to emails and phone calls, always providing clear communication. On the wedding day, Alex was able to go with the flow when needed but also confidently take charge to guide us through portraits. The photos turned out beautifully, capturing all the special moments. Alex made the entire process easy and comfortable. We felt at ease in front the camera and the photos reflect the joy we felt. The quality shows in the final edited photos and the value was well worth the cost. We would highly recommend Alex Rae Photography for your wedding or special event photography needs.

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Being part of my clients story, is where I have found my calling. Capturing moments in your life, freezing those memories, and making them stay alive each time you look at your photos, is truly what makes my time rewarding. There are never too many questions or emails, because everything I provide for you should be exactly as you envision, but better.

Honestly, our big day would have not been as amazing if it wasn’t for Cori. She literally is so amazing! She captured every detail and every unplanned beautiful moment wonderfully. She’s professional, fun, makes everything less stressful, helps out where she can even outside the photos and video just to help ensure your day is as beautiful as possible. We had a lot of hiccups on our wedding and she helped far past what was needed and it made the biggest difference for me personally more than she even knows. She’s level headed and helps you get back focused on your special day. The day, the pictures, the video all AMAZING!

Hey guys, we are a collective that has come together to better serve our community. They say “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” Benjamin and Kelsey met at a coffee house when Kelsey was a cute girl with a camera in hand. Needless to say, they discovered that they had a mutual passion for more than just photography. We are chasers of our next adventure. Whether that be on a windy mountaintop, or in a deep valley for intimate quite moments. We are obsessed with capturing images of our couples that truly resonate with them.

If you are of the opinion that the photographer is one of the most important roles in your wedding, you are looking in the right place. Ben of Boxcar was exactly what I wanted in a photographer: easy to work with, flexible, personable, adventurous, respectful, responsive, passionate and generous. In addition to being an all-around great guy, Ben also knows how to use a camera. I'm not sure I am qualified to try and classify his style, but I would say it has a certain photo-journalist quality to it. A quality that conveys realism, but is also very artistic. Long and short of it is, I highly recommend this guy. You will not be disappointed.
