Are you frustrated with combing through page after page of the same old cliche'd wedding photos? Looking for something classic and timeless but with a bit of an edge? We got you. I've been creating wedding day memories for over a decade now. New Orleans. Chicago. Minneapolis. The PNW. NYC. We travel all over this country, and even internationally, when the right opportunity presents itself, documenting love stories for our amazing couples. Our goal with each new wedding, is not to be just good or “good enough”--the goal is to be world-class, one of the top wedding photography teams in the world. Each couple helps us accomplish this.

Working with J. Roman was a dream! We won an engagement shoot with J and quickly knew we wanted him as our wedding photographer after an engagement shoot that was so fun! He delivered hundreds of photos that we loved. His range is amazing; from moody and dark, to vintage and chic, to glam and bright, all the versions of photography you crave for your big day, J covers! We were open to J's eye when it came to moments and he worked seamlessly on our big day--him or his team never felt intrusive to a special moment. The raw emotion of the wedding day was captured so beautifully-we get to relive such a momentous day over and over through his art. He was incredibly professional, was very easy to work with and was so helpful in planning. J has delivered amazing results: 2500 photos for our wedding, which we received in exactly 3 weeks. We received the first short video within 4 weeks of the wedding as well for his photography and videography package. So grateful that we booked with J Roman and would recommend his over and over again!

In all facets of my work, I always strive to tell a story. For weddings, that means telling not only the story of an event - but one of two people who’ve spent countless hours together. Your photos should be a direct reflection of your relationship - timeless, emotional, and authentic. I believe in keeping things simple and work in a way that allows you to appreciate your day and its details, while I capture everything in a modern journalistic style. I want you to be able to relive the moments of your wedding, both seen and unseen, with your photos. Photography isn’t just my career, it’s my life, and I can’t wait to make it part of yours.

Josh is the full package! You don't need to worry about a thing with him, he just gets it. He can tell what you value and care about and knows exactly how to capture the moment. He's cool calm and collected, and helps to guide you without making your day feel like a goofy photoshoot. On the lead up to your day, you can expect direct and clear communication. Photos arrived exactly on schedule. Expect lots of compliments from anyone who sees your photos!

Bonnie Drake Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Hamel, MN

I've been passionate about documenting and creating since I was a little girl running wild in the suburbs of St. Paul. I would steal my parent's film camera and take dozens (okay maybe hundreds) of blurry photos of our dog. In high school, I spent babysitting money on a polaroid and then finally my beloved point and shoot, which was my favorite accessory for a night out! I was gifted my first DSLR in my early twenties, and that changed the way I looked at the role photography played in my life. What was always a beloved hobby became my passion, and I've never been happier.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are SO glad we hired Bonnie for both our engagement & wedding photos! Not only are her pictures gorgeous, fun, and full of natural personality, but she is just a total joy to work with! We were both a little nervous being in front of the camera, but Bonnie made us completely comfortable to be ourselves and made it feel like we were just hangin' with a pal. Our entire family loved her too! She was fun, friendly, respectful, and super great at her job. We all secretly wish we could be friends with Bonnie cause she's one super cool lady and an amazingly skilled photographer! Highly recommend!

Welcome to my corner of the internet :) I’m a couple’s and wedding photographer based in Minnesota! It is SO nice to meet you :) A little bit about me… I’m a wife, daughter, sister, and friend. I grew up in MN and I love bringing light and positivity to my relationships. I love making people laugh, but if you ask me to tell a joke on the spot I can guarantee you nothing. I enjoy cozy nights with a cup of tea and lo-fi tunes, but also wild dancing and driving with the windows down.

A friend of mine recommended Catie’s services after doing a couples shoot and I am so grateful she did. From the beginning, Catie was easy to talk to, very straight forward, professional, and extremely kind. The minute we met at our engagement shoot we immediately hit it off. It felt as if we had known her for years. She is very passionate about her work and is always making sure to do whatever she can to make your experience seamless. She does an amazing job preparing for the big day and gives you the opportunity to connect to ask questions and share your thoughts so you are both on the same page. Not only is she a genuine person who cares about you as a couple, her work is flawless. We absolutely LOVED every single photo we received. There were so many friends and family who still continue to comment on our photos and rave about the amazing job that she did. Overall, if you are looking for a photographer who does amazing work but also cares about you as a couple, I would highly recommend Catie and her services to anyone looking for a photographer!

Heather Hanson Wedding Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Hamel, MN

My art is dedicated to capturing genuine, raw human emotion through playful and experimental photography. With a background in photojournalism and 14+ years of experience photographing couples, she tells the story of both the wedding day and the couple in a unique combination of candids, details, and portraits.

Heather is such an amazing photographer to work with! We did both our engagement and our wedding photos with her and both of them were such fun and unique experiences! Heather is the BEST if you're looking for something very personalized, unique and off-beat, and she really knows how to capture the unique spirit of your wedding. On the day, she knows how to manage your time and keep the day going smoothly. I also just want to mention she is the BEST at beautiful candid moments. So many photographers can be great at beautiful posed shots, but fall down when it comes to capturing those in-the-moment photos. Hers are well lit, beautifully framed and really speak to those special moments that really make your day memorable. 10/10!

Hey there, I’m Eric! Originally from Nebraska, I now reside in Minneapolis with my wife, three dogs, cat, and a bunch of reptile friends. Outdoors is my passion, whether hiking, biking, climbing, or camping, rain or shine. While I love capturing weddings in the heart of the Midwest, I’m always ready to travel across the country for a unique celebration. Elopements, especially, have a special place in my heart—there’s a thrill in capturing those intimate moments, wherever they may be. I've found love in documenting portraits, especially of couples, discovering a certain magic in their connection and the uniqueness of each love story.

Having Eric as a photographer is like hanging out with an old friend. He put this camera-shy couple at ease immediately, made us laugh, and always had great suggestions for posing to help get the best results possible. He came prepared with ideas for shots and scenes, and his videography was so unobtrusive we almost didn’t remember it was happening! He is quick to respond to questions, has an amazing eye for color and composition, and is generally just a really positive presence on a day that can otherwise be pretty stressful. Don’t sleep on Eric — you’ll be so glad you hired him!

Welcome! I’m Britt and I am the gal behind the lens at Render Photography. I love traveling, napping, embarrassing my kids, and horses, whiskey, and LOVE. My idea of a life well-lived is one where I get to help others see the love they have in their lives, and to give them something that helps them feel it and remember it more fiercely. I love stories and I’d love to help tell a chapter of yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stop looking for another photographer!!!! Just stop. Don't waste your time with anybody else, you want Britt from Render Photography. Britt has now photographed us on three separate occasions, including our wedding. We were married in the dead of Minnesota winter. She came prepared for indoor and outdoor photos and had fantastic ideas. She worked with us prior to the wedding to ensure that we got photos with all of our family members, which was very important to us. (Pro tip: make this list BEFORE your wedding day. Don't worry, Britt will remind you.) Not only does Britt have an amazing eye for light, but she will also help to pose you and your family/wedding party/friends/dogs to help accentuate your best looks. Read that again - yes, I said dogs. Britt works well with humans and just as well with furry friends. Britt was absolutely integral to the success of our wedding. Make no mistake, she's the reason we started on time. She's professional to the core while bringing a light and warm energy to any space she enters. Are you silly and light-hearted? She's got you. Are you dramatic and serious? No problem. When you work with one of the best in the business, your personality is captured regardless of how you emote. Give yourself the gift of beautifully captured memories by working with Britt. It will be one of the best decisions you make.

Photography is more than a career to me, it's my passion. I want to give you an inspired photographic experience. ‍ Your wedding images should tell your story, not mine or anyone else's. The images should evoke the raw and honest emotions of the love you share. Through my lens, I strive to faithfully translate the love and emotion you feel into timeless and genuine images, so five, ten, or fifty years from the future you can relive that day the same way you experienced it. The timeless photographs will become your treasured and preserved works of art, ready to be gathered together in an album or hung on your walls.

  • Serves Hamel, MN

Capturing your beautiful & intimate moments is why I do what I do. Whether it's the brush of a hand, a first look, or an inside joke whispered at just the right time... I am constantly seeking to capture those beautiful moments. Those real, stunning and timeless moments that make up YOUR relationship. However, I pride myself on being more than a wedding photographer – As someone who has been an intimate part of over 200 weddings, I vow to be your number one hype woman, your timeline planner, your moment of zen, your personal cleavage taper, your family wrangler, your time pauser, and your memory keeper.

If you are still looking for a photographer (no matter the occasion) stop right now and hire Mycah!! Mycah did our engagement pictures, COVID small ceremony, and finally our real wedding & reception in July 2021...and every single picture is beyond perfect. I am still getting compliments to this day of how wonderful Mycah was during my whole wedding. She knows how to get everyone's attention and listen to her directions for big group photos -even that family member that tries to control the situation! We had a huge group of friends, not a wedding party, and Mycah was able to get the most amazing pictures of the entire group (think 35+ people! ). She thought of every picture that I would never think of asking her to take. She is the kindest, easiest to talk to, most caring person you want at your wedding to take your pictures. We are not the most comfortable people in front of the camera and are super awkward but Mycah makes you feel at ease AND you end up looking so natural when you get your pictures!! I have no doubt that I will be asking Mycah to take photos of my family for the rest of time. She is super talented at what she does and you will love every picture she takes!!

Hi all, I’m Erin! I’m a wedding photographer based in Minneapolis but I’m always up for a destination or travel wedding/elopement. I feel my favorite images are always ones that are captured vs manufactured and embracing the true interactions between the couple, their friends and family. I LOVE love and I’ll probably cry at your wedding, all those feels get me.

I can't imagine anyone better to work with for our wedding pics. Erin effortlessly met our vibe and helped us keep everything calm, cool, and moving right along. She was essential in helping us nail down a timeline that maximized our priorities but also resulted in an incredible variety of photos that perfectly captured the day. We ended up with so many photos we loved that our moms scheduled a day to reminisce on the wedding and go back through the pics together. Everything 10/10, can't recommend enough!

I love capturing the moments that aren't posed or planned but that are special and YOU. I want you to be able to FEEL something when you look at my images. Your special day is unique and should be captured in a way that makes you remember every little moment as it was.

Macie does an amazing job capturing all of those special moments between poses. The moments that are raw and make you feel something when you look at them. The photos that Macie took on my wedding day tell a story and I am forever grateful to her. The photos are beautiful and edited wonderfully. I get to relive my wedding day as many times as I’d like through those photos. Also, Macie is a such a kind and genuine person. She is easy to work with and does an amazing job.

I want to create with you a time capsule: a way to transport you back to your wedding day and how it all felt. I believe photography is the purest form of storytelling. I live for the unrehearsed, beautiful and genuine images. Those filled with pure joy and even tears. I also know how to help you treasure those family photos (your family ROCKS!) and capture all the details that become so precious. Your story is AMAZING and I can't wait to be there to celebrate together!

Laura has captured every part of our wedding journey from the proposal to our engagement photos to our wedding day. She is the sweetest soul and consistently puts out amazing photos. My husband and I are not natural in front of the camera but she always made us feel so comfortable. We brought our dog to both our engagement photos and our wedding. He’s not great in front of the camera either but she was able to get some of my favorite shots of both days with him behaving for 30 seconds at a time.

I’VE BEEN A PROFESSIONAL THIRD WHEEL FOR 10 YEARS. Yup, crazy I know! I've joined countless couples in their adventures of love. Why? People are my passion. Photography sprouted out of my desire to connect with people and make it known to the world that every human has equal worth and beauty. I dabbled in photojournalism before I fell in love with weddings. When I was in Kenya I had the privilege of documenting a few weddings, and that's when there was a SPARK.

She is never short of creative ideas so if you don't have your own, you're in safe hands!

I've been shooting unique, non-traditional, very-traditional, queer, straight, weird, normal, sexy, just-plain-fun weddings for over a decade now. Don't think your wedding falls into that category? Don't be so sure. Your unique love deserves to be documented whoever that may look. If you want bad-ass photography that stands out, all while having fun doing it, we're what you've been looking for. Let's connect. We'd love to hear your love story.

I haaaate having my photo taken. I was super anxious about the whole process going into it. It takes a certain amount of trust to let someone photograph you... Jay and his Bellocq team were A from start to finish. We were blown away by A) the sheer amount of photos given back (they don't cap their packages at certain photo counts) and B) how seamlessly the entire collection flowed together from start to finish. We couldn't have asked for more. We will definitely be re-booking them for our family photos (first baby on the way!!!) in the future. Jay is incredibly kind and fun to be around, and just puts you at ease. That is the first thing you'll notice when you meet. Can't recommend Bellocq enough!!!

Here at Vick Photography, we want to give you the ultimate wedding experience from start to finish. We live for the happy moments that keep you curious and we are here to listen, laugh, and create intentional photographs for you. I have been photographing weddings for over 15 years and can't wait to bring you into our Vick Photography family.

This is long because we can’t figure out how to describe how amazing Vick is- If you’re searching for a photographer who is a true artist, will make you laugh, help you remember to take a breath and savor the little moments, aid in corralling your family (including the furry kind of family members) and friends, and go above and beyond in every way to help the wedding process proceed seamlessly seriously stop searching. Andrew Vick is the real deal. He made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera, and did so much for our wedding aside from taking beautiful pictures. He helped everyone coordinate, fixed dresses, captured all the moments we wanted, and especially the ones we didn’t know we would look back at and absolutely treasure. It has taken us a long time to try and write a review that will accurately describe his incredible work, and what a wonderful person he is. This review still doesn’t do him justice. Words can’t describe how amazing our experience with him was.

She even had a pulse on when I could use a water throughout the day and would deliver it to me without me even asking. She is always one step ahead of anything and truly everything all day long. She is a calming presence, stayed on the timeline without an ounce of stress involved, always checked in to make sure both my husband and I were not feeling rushed. She seriously is the absolute best! The best part is that her photos are absolutely phenomenal and speak for themselves, she is so talented. Looking through our wedding photos allows me to relive the best day ever, all thanks to Emily!!

From the get-go, Andrew was a delight to work with - he shot our engagement photos and helped us find and arrange a venue for them - and immediately set us at ease. He goes above and beyond to get the perfect shot, the perfect lighting, the perfect pose. On our wedding day, Andrew took the lead on finding locations for photos around our venue, posing us/our bridal party/our family, and finding moments for candid shots at the reception. Multiple family members have reached out after the wedding to tell us how much they enjoyed Andrew's approach and how at ease they felt with him. If you're considering Andrew for your special occasion, book him - we can't recommend him highly enough!

Maurissa is such an amazing human being! We could not have asked for anyone better to be our wedding photographer! We knew we loved her the minute we met her for our engagement session last winter. She is very outgoing, friendly and honest! She has been very responsive in communication from the beginning. Maurissa goes above and beyond just being a photographer. She made sure everything was lined up, provided a timeline for all the vendors, made sure to get every "must have" photo. Maurissa also helped make sure we enjoyed OUR day. I was very worried about the timeline and being behind on everything but she made sure to remind me that there is no timeline and this was our special day so anything we wanted she would make happen and the guests would be okay entertaining themselves until we were ready! We also got our sneak peaks back already and are so obsessed and cannot wait to see the rest. Maurissa will definitely be showing up in our future because we love her!!

We are a husband and wife team photographing weddings since 2010. We're total geeks that love music and films. When not photographing weddings, we love playing with our dogs and cats, watching music videos, cartoons, and horror movies, and photographing other things.

Tracy & Kyle are fantastic artists and teammates! They made our wedding experience such a fun journey every step of the way and we were blown away by how fantastic all of our photos turned out in both our engagement and wedding day photos. We met with them in-person twice for consultations and felt so comfortable talking with them and sharing our experiences as fellow wedding-industry workers. The rate at which we received our photos after our engagement shoot and our wedding was perfect! They sent a few samples that showed the quality and attention to detail, and the remaining complete albums were sent within a week! So fast but so much attention to detail and great editing. We also loved their blog posts as a way to share photos with friends and family and we enjoyed browsing other couples' albums as well! As a same-sex mixed race couple, we really appreciated their wide portfolio of diverse couples of LGBTQIA and BIPOC clients.

We love, love, loved working with Keighla for our engagement photos, wedding #1, and wedding #2 (2020 covid bride here). I truly wouldn’t have known how to navigate the covid wedding process without her. Beyond that, though, she made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and our relationship, love, and personalities really shine through in her work. Keighla’s work is TIMELESS ART, that is not over-edited like other photographers I’ve seen. (She also photographed both of my husband’s siblings’ weddings as well… our family can’t get enough!)

Dakota Layne Photography

  • Serves Hamel, MN

I am the heart and soul behind Dakota Layne Photo. Based in western Wisconsin, my love for photography started as a seven-year-old girl as the flower girl in a family wedding and has now become an extension of who I am. I approach my clients from a place of empathy - understanding who they are, what is important to them, and how I can bring their story to life in a significant and meaningful way.

From the moment I inquired with Dakota, she was prompt. We instantly jumped on a call and we literally talked for a hour! I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer! Throughout the planning process, she consistently reached out to check in. Her thoughtful and uplifting voice messages were such a light midst the stresses of wedding planning. I would get so excited when I saw her name pop up on my phone, her bubbly personality and genuine care in her messages meant everything to us!! Our engagement photo day was a scorcher--95 degrees and pure sun!! But Dakota made the absolute best of it, even as we took breaks to cool down. Despite the sweat and crazy heat, our photos turned our magazine worthy--seriously stunning!! In the weeks leading up to the wedding she checked in almost daily, which was so reassuring. Her online website and questionnaire were very thorough and incredibly helpful. At one point, I even called her to vent about a difficult wedding situation (that had nothing to do with her), and she listened and reassured me through it all! She is truly a wedding industry professional!! On our wedding day, her presence was incredibly pleasant and everything flowed perfect. We fell a bit behind due to hair and makeup, and she continued to reassure me that we would be just fine. Her photography style is absolutely stunning, with great attention to detail that captured every important moment for us. We received our sneak peeks just a day or two after the wedding which was one of my favorite memories ever!!-- getting to reminisce on the stunning photos with my now husband on our first day of our honeymoon. It meant the world to us! The full gallery was delivered within the timeframe discussed in our contract as promised, I even had a few questions about different angles and additional photos and she delivered on all of my requests. Her gallery website was very easy to use and share. Overall we had a 1000/10 experience with having Dakota as our wedding photographer. Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also so personable and was one of the best decisions and investments we have ever made! When it is your special day, you want to be surrounded by the absolute best, and that is Dakota!!
