MAKEUP ARTIST ONLY Hello! My name is Ashley. I am a professional Minneapolis makeup artist with over eight years of experience. I worked for MAC cosmetics for almost 4 years and that is where I grew as a professional makeup artist.

  • Serves Maple Grove, MN

If you're looking for a stress-free day that you can truly enjoy and someone there to capture all the moments you were hoping for and more...can I just say HEYO!! More than anything, it is my pride and joy to guide you from our first meeting to your final gallery with ease and support. Our preparation will ensure that your day is centered around the two of you instead of literally anything else. As your wedding should be!

Awarded Best of Zola
​Working with Jessica Knighton Photography was hands down one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. From the first time we reached out, she was the most helpful a human could be—from walking through a possible timeline before we even committed to hiring her to sending her wedding guide with tips and tricks and suggestions for other vendors and going along with our not-so-conventional pool party engagement shoot, she made two awkward introverts feel so comfortable both with and without her camera pointed at them. Of all the variety of vendors I spoke with, Jess exceeded every expectation in a way nobody else was able to. She was so kind checking in with us throughout the entire planning process, delivered both our galleries so quickly, and most of all DELIVERED with the best photos to help us remember our day. We simply adored every single one of the photos... like, in a wanna lay on the floor and scream about it, sing her praises from every mountain top even though I'm not a hiker, accidentally send her a thousand and one heart-eyed emojis, bend the knee because forget Sansa Stark she is MY queen of the north type of way. They all feel so very "us" in a way that would be almost frightening if it wasn't so impressive. In a year, or five, or ten or fifty, I can't wait to look back and remember all the little details, how much love we felt, and how much fun it all was. It'll be easy to do because it's written in every picture a thousand times over. I would recommend working with Jess in every universe. She's truly the best in the biz. ​Especially if you have a two year old niece as your flower girl who isn't so sure about the whole "photos" thing, because she'll probably be very sure of Jess and even smile a time or two. If you don't believe me, ask literally anybody in my family (we still talk about how great she is a frankly concerning amount).

When we began planning our 2024 wedding, Watson Block was the first venue we toured, and we immediately knew it would also be the last! Watson Block's intimate space and Art Deco vibes was perfect for our small (50 guests) wedding. Gaby was so easy to work with, being extremely communicative, professional, and patient with all the questions we had throughout the process. Watson Block's relationships with its partner caterers also made it a one-stop shop for our venue, food, and bar needs. Not only is the space gorgeous and the service top-tier, the price was remarkably affordable, especially given its location in the heart of Minneapolis!

I strive to create heirloom, film-inspired images that celebrate genuine emotions and joyful moments. I live in a charming Tudor house with my husband, our two little girls, and our cat, Goose. In my free time, I enjoy camping, cooking, and getting lost in a good book.

Hello my name is Stephanie, I have been a licensed cosmologist for the last 10 years! I started working in a lot of blow dry bars for about 6 years and that brought me to doing bridal hair. I truly love styling hair!!! I have been doing bridal hair for the last 7 years and I love it!!!! I will always do my best to give you the style you are looking to achieve, but I will also let you know what will work best for your hair. I also specialize in hair extensions and sell bridal hair accessories. Look forward to meeting all you beautiful brides and hopefully being a part of your beautiful day! :)

I couldn't be happier with the incredible work Stephanie did for our wedding. With much of my wedding party having long, thick hair, I was worried about finding someone who could create a style that would not only look stunning but also hold up throughout the entire day. Stephanie exceeded all our expectations, creating perfect styles for all of us! From the trial session to the wedding day, she was professional, attentive, and truly understood the look I wanted to achieve. She worked her magic on my hair, creating beautiful curls and a style that remained flawless from the first photos to last call. Not only did she make my hair look amazing, but she also worked wonders on my bridal party. Each of my bridesmaids had different hair types, and she tailored their styles perfectly, leaving everyone thrilled with the results. Her calm and friendly demeanor made the getting-ready process enjoyable and stress-free. She even helped my sisters learn how to best put in and take out my veil, along with other personal touches for each of us that truly were above and beyond. I received countless compliments on my hair, and I couldn't recommend Stephanie more highly to any bride.

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.

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
Bonne was our photographer for our wedding in April 2022, and we are SO HAPPY we found her. We considered photographers that had a second shooter, but honestly didn’t feel like we missed out at all as Bonnie did such a great job. Bonnie is so nice and has a way to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. We did an engagement shoot which was a great way to know Bonnie and get some beautiful pictures for our invitations. We lived out of state at the time and Bonnie was super flexible to accommodate our schedule when we were visiting and recommended a great location. On our wedding day, Bonnie was very professional and organized which kept us on schedule while also making sure we weren’t worried about timing or about missing out on photos. We really wanted to be at our cocktail hour and she made it happen! But what really stands out is Bonnie’s eye for picking out great locations and capturing photos in the moment. The portrait shots were well framed and the candid photos really captured the emotions of the day. We snuck away with Bonnie to take some golden hour photos and they turned out so well! Bonnie had scoped out locations around our venue the day before which allowed for us to quickly sneak away to an awesome local. She is so talented! We love our photos and would recommend her to anyone!

Since the beginning, hair and make-up has been my passion as well as being “upside down.” It has been on my mind and a fiber of my being since four years old. I was cartwheeling into hair and makeup for friends and family. Just an active, outdoorsy gal that loves to enhance all beauty.

Had some difficulty with communication in the beginning since I was in Utah planning a wedding for Minnesota, but Sarah was always willing to answer my questions and provide the additional clarity I needed to calm my nerves as well as ensure I was understanding all services provided. The contract could use a little work since that’s where most of my confusion stemmed from, but not a deal breaker. Sarah was personable and fun for our trials and actual day of application, all my bridesmaids enjoyed their looks and how easy it was to ask for personal tweaks to our looks. Highly recommend!

After touring multiple venues in Minneapolis, the Lumber Exchange was the perfect choice for us. Without knowing exactly what our "dream wedding" would look like, the team at the Lumber Exchange guided us through planning in a way that organically created the PERFECT day and night for our wedding. The venue's new chef, Ali, was so incredible and worked with us to make a few changes to an already-DELICIOUS menu (we asked for a lighter sauce to go with the salmon) and the guests said all night that it was some of the best wedding food they've ever had! The parking ramp attached to the venue was great for guests to easily access an otherwise-intimidating downtown excursion! The bridal and groom's suites were both beautifully maintained and secure for the day and evening making it so comfortable to get ready and celebrate! Also, between the parking ramp rooftop, the stunning staircase and light shining in from downtown through the massive windows in the Dylan Room, the venue provided so many amazing photo opportunities. We were so at ease for the entire process, and we would recommend this space to anyone looking for a classy venue that is SO well-run, all of the typical stressors one might encounter in planning a wedding are completely taken care of. A special thanks to Hannah Fox who was our assigned (included in the cost of the rental) coordinator and Shannon who was the manager of the building for both our rehearsal and the entire wedding day. They were a dream team one can only........dream of! Attention to detail, charming personalities and complete support of all ideas we had!

My mom and I suddenly were inspired to hire a live pianist for our social hour at my husband and my wedding. It was last minute because some covid restrictions were lifted and we found out we could actually celebrate. Sharon was absolutely wonderful and accommodating.

My hair normally wont curl so i was nervous my hair wouldn’t cooperate because its hard for me to get any styling to stay, but she worked her magic and my hair turned out even better than I hoped! She laughed with us as we got ready and made the morning so enjoyable! Highly recommend using her!!!

The venue itself is truly a magical space - it feels like stepping into a fairytale, from the stunning murals and chandeliers to the intricate woodwork.
