Valerie was amazing to work with! She photographed our wedding and was so kind and detail oriented. The photos came out great, and she was more than happy to adjust some of the editing for us when we asked! We even purchased the package that included scrapbooks and we procrastinated following up with it, but over a year later she was still eager to make them for us and hand delivered them to our door with the sweetest note and goodies. Anybody would be lucky to work with her!!

That being said, I do retouch what is requested. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my kids, dogs and husband.

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.

McKenzie and Maddie are the best to work with! We did our engagement pictures & wedding pictures with them and they made everything perfect. Their turnaround time is amazing as well, we had sneak peaks of our wedding THE NEXT DAY, and had all of our pictures back IN A WEEK. I’ve never heard of that type of turn around time! They make it such a joyful experience to take pictures and are so easy to work with. They are open to doing whatever you are looking for and have such good communication with their clients. I can’t imagine having our family photographer be anyone else! Definitely book them if you have the chance!!

We now travel as a couple to capture love across the states, no travel fees wherever your wedding is.

Where do I begin, Charby & Co is the most amazing photographer to work with. As me and my husband were planning our elopement we had no idea where to begin.

She was very insightful of the location we picked, and she had many recommendations for places near by during our stay. Charby & Co exceeded my expectations when it comes to her amazing, talented, beautiful work! I will forever be grateful that she was my photographer for one of the best days in my life. The entire experience was breathtaking and she made me and my husband so comfortable in front of the camera. She truly made our elopement so special and our pictures speak for themselves.

If I am not photographing, you will either find me in one of two places, a coffee shop or out in nature usually eating my favorite snacks in fish form (Swedish or Gold), or belting anything from musicals to early 2000s country (yes there is a difference) to 90’s hip hop jams.

I've had the privilege of working with Meredith at Cross Lake Media for a couple weddings now, and she's been nothing shy of an amazing vendor to work with! As a videographer, she's given me all the creative reign I need to successfully do my job all while being able to do hers as well. She's both professional and personable, and I am so glad the photographer community has brought us together.

Jason Snorlax Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Mankato, MN

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

In addition to how talented she is, she brought a sense of calm and joy to the day. Her friendly demeanor and approach made us feel like we were in the best hands possible. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and compassionate photographer to be a part of our celebration.

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.

Hello! While I have always had a passion for photography it wasn't until 2012 that I realized how much I TRULY loved it. My husband handed me a DSLR camera and I started calling on my friends to do photoshoots. Next thing I knew, Markina B. Photography was born and it's been going ever since. What I love about being a photographer is that I get to see emotions, expressions, memories and joy-fullness through my lens. I get to capture and create art out of it for my clients to hang on their walls or to give as a gift. Photography is my true passion in life and I will never not love it.

Markina is absolutely amazing in every way! My (now) husband and I met with Markina to discuss engagement and wedding photography, which is something that we were extremely anxious about because we wanted the best! After our initial conversation with Markina, we immediately knew she was the one! Markina helped us with our timeline, setting up our photo lists, and she took the most amazing pictures!! My husband and I are normally not very comfortable in front of a camera, but Markina made us feel completely at ease. She guided us through each pose and kept everything moving smoothly. We are so pleased each time we work with her. Markina’s positive nature and flexibility in her work make her the best photographer to work with. I recommend Markina B. Photography to everyone!

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time.

Awarded Best of Zola
What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. You’re planning the day that you’ve been anticipating your whole life and yet you only get one shot at it! By the time you get the hang of it, the planning is over! My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience.

I absolutely LOVED working with Sarah as my wedding photographer! From the moment I booked her until the final gallery was delivered, I couldn't have had a better experience. Sarah made everything so fun, made me feel like her most important client, and most of all, genuinely cared about what my husband and I hoped for in our wedding photos. She brought so much energy to our day, and was an absolute joy to hang out with all day. My husband, not one for all the details and photos, even had the best experience of his life with her. Best of all, we are in LOVE with each and every one of the photos from Sarah! Each one perfectly captures a memory and a moment (in the most beautiful possible way) that my husband and I will treasure forever. We cannot recommend Sarah enough!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

Rigg & Co.

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,400
  • Serves Mankato, MN for additional fees

With over a decade of experience, I believe your wedding day should reflect who you are and the journey you share. Whether an intimate mountain elopement, a seaside ceremony, or a grand celebration, my focus is to capture your love story – the genuine, heartfelt moments that make your day unforgettable. I work closely with you to ensure each image feels natural and meaningful, letting you relive the day’s emotions. Based in Minnesota and ready to travel, I blend seamlessly into your day, preserving every detail with care. Let’s create a timeless collection that truly reflects your love and the legacy you’re building.

Oh my lanta. Where do I begin? If we had to get married again, my first task would be to see if Rigg & Co was available and if not, I’d change my wedding date. I couldn’t imagine not having her there! First, Kate listens to what you want. My husband and I really wanted a lot of candid photos of us and our guests. We had an intimate wedding with our closest friends and family so it was important to us that she captured them in the moment! Mission accomplished and more. Second, Kate is so talented and also just a fun human to be around. There’s no awkwardness or that “is this a good pose? Am I doing what I’m supposed to?” feeling because she makes you feel so comfortable! It was like she was just a part of the family and fit right in. She really was there at every moment - the rehearsal, up very early the next morning to go to the farmers market where I picked out my flowers, the ceremony, the dance, everything! Looking back, I’m extra thankful for her and the long day she put in because every moment was captured beautifully and exceeded my expectations. It even rained during our ceremony and the way she captured us during it was magical! I also can’t leave a review without mentioning the video she made! I was blown away by this. The video is so well done and thoughtful and really special to us as we got married during COVID and we had people who could not attend. This video allows them to see all of the intimate details of our wedding without actually being there. We even hired her years later to do family photos with our doggo! She’s the best. I feel like I’m rambling but it’s really because I cannot say enough positive things about Kate - hire her!
