Hiring Ashley was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She’s bubbly, kind, and makes you feel like you’ve been friends forever. The day of our wedding went by so fast, but every single image she captured brings me back in an instant. She not only captured our love story, but captured our friends and family beautifully. Every silly moment, tender exchange and happy tear was published in our gallery — and for that, I am forever grateful.

Hi, there! I am Allie, an internationally published fine art photographer. What's unique to my craft is the focus on small details to tell the complete story of your love. From your candid laughs together to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small. We’ve had so many sweet couples from around the world trust us - from our own backyard in MN to the Coasts & even Internationally. I've had the honor of being nominated as the Top 3 Photographers in MN & the experience of photographing over 150 weddings. But each feels completely unique & gives me the joy of butterflies

First, we were immediately drawn to Allie’s timeless, bright, and airy photography style. From the moment that we spoke with Allie during our phone consultation, we felt very comfortable with her and knew she would be the perfect fit as our wedding photographer! Allie photographed our engagement session in downtown Stillwater, a boudoir session (Allie also designed a keepsake boudoir book that I gave to my husband as his wedding gift), and our wedding day. Throughout all of the sessions, Allie was kind, warm, patient, gave us helpful prompts/poses, and guided us every step of the way! Whenever I had questions regarding photography, Allie was very responsive and provided wonderful customer service. She also helped us to create a detailed photography timeline and shot list for the wedding day. On the wedding day, Allie and her second shooter were very professional, prepared, and helped to keep everyone on track, including the bridal party and our families. After the wedding, we received way more photos than we were expecting in our online gallery, which were beautifully edited with her special touch. Allie exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond in all areas. We’ll cherish our photos for years to come and highly recommend Alexandra Robyn Photo & Design!

Madison + McKenzie are best friends turned business partners. Since 2017, Mckenzie + Madison has photographer more than 65 individuals. In 2017, Mckenzie received a Canon Rebel T7 camera as a Christmas gift. This began the journey. As a senior, she was taking photos of other friends and family. One of these seniors included her best friend, Madison. Since then, they have been inseperable! About a year later, Mckenzie asked Madison if she would want to start a business together. Of course, Madison said yes.

My Husband and I found Lavenderie through Facebook and decided to go with them for our wedding in 2023. They were very affordable and their website and portfolio fit our style. They were very open and understanding to my ideas and what I wanted for my wedding. They brought their own ideas for the photos that I loved and ended up being my favorite ones! We decided to use them again for our maternity photos and they turned out amazing as well! Definitely a jack of all trades for any photo session you’d like to do! They know great places and are very easy to talk to if there’s something you’d like to change! Can’t wait to book my family photos sometime this year! Definitely recommend if you want a relatable, innovative, affordable photographer!

After years of watching Jasmine in the business, Jacob joined as a wedding videographer to put his experience as a storyteller to work. We now travel as a couple to capture love across the states, no travel fees wherever your wedding is.

I love a good love story. There’s nothing I enjoy more than photographing the kind of love that sets the soul on fire. Or capturing the excitement that comes from saying ‘yes’ to forever with your best friend. I’m empowered by the couples who are passionate about life but don’t take it too seriously. The ones who crave adventure and aren’t afraid to blaze their own trail. Who value connection and intentional conversation while making the time and space in their relationship to grow in love and as individuals.

Emily - and her husband, Dan - are an absolute joy to work! They put as much effort into trying to be helpful, and to be a friend to you, as they do into getting incredible photos. They’re easy to communicate with, fun to be around, as professional as they come, more creative than you can imagine, and the end product will leave you breathless!

Hey there!! My name is Alexis and I'm so glad you're here. I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in Hankinson, ND, with ties to Minneapolis as well, so I am in MN often and will gladly come wherever you are! I love the all things outdoors, especially forests and couldn't live without coffee.

Lexbe Images was a dream to work with for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication style was great - they were incredibly responsive, reassuring, and clearly passionate about their craft. On the day of the wedding, they were quick, flexible, and creative, capturing unique and memorable moments that we'll cherish forever. The final photos were simply amazing - the quality of their work is truly comforting, and we're overjoyed with how they helped make our special day so perfect. Lexbe Images' skill sets were invaluable, and we couldn't recommend them more highly.

Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life. I believe that you should choose a photographer that you feel a connection with, and whose style of images resonates with you. If you choose to work with me, I promise that not only will you love your images - but you will also have an enjoyable and relaxed experience throughout your entire wedding day.

Jen was so fun and easy to work with! From our engagement session to the day of the wedding- Jen delivered everything I was hoping for and more! She helped plan our day of timeline and answered any questions I had about the logistics of everything, which is a lot when it comes to a wedding! I was so pleased with how our engagement pictures turned out, I had no worries when it came to the wedding photos. The very next day after our wedding, Jen shared about 50 individual photos as a "sneak peak" and it was SO nice to share them with family right away. I have seen many photographers share a collage of photos, and this was a full album! Jen really went out of her way to make our sessions with her extra special. She got us the perfect location for our engagement pictures and made sure to cross off every photo request on my list of the day of the wedding. I am really looking forward to working with her again in the future!
