I’m all about those candid, meaningful moments—ones that show your connection and the joy of the people around you.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

My name is Meredith. I’m a self-taught photographer, an avid hiker, and a person who loves getting lost in their own city. 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.

Cross Lake Media went above and beyond to make our entire engagement seamless. Meredith highlighted our interests during engagement pictures. She met with us prior to the wedding to make sure everything was in order. Her and Shawna kept us on our schedule on the wedding day. Her editing is phenomenal. She lets the natural beauty shine, while adding her artistic style to each picture. She cared for us as a couple, not as “Just another client.” 10/10 recommend!

Ever since I can remember, I've been captivated by the power of a single moment to tell a whole story. As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

5 STAR REVIEW! We had such an amazing experience with Prest1ge Photography! It was a toasty, sunny, fast-paced wedding day, and Caleb remembered to do all the shots we had asked for, and many more at a comfortable pace. Time flew and we went longer than expected, but he was gracious, easy to work with, and didn't allow anything to stress him out. Choosing Prest1ge was the best decision we could have made!

Hey there, I'm Brianna! I am an film lovin', free-spirited, traveling photographer. I'm based out of Minnesota and available for wherever your love takes us. I'm all about documenting love stories in a creative, documentary style that captures all the real stuff—candid moments, quirky expressions of love, and genuine personalities. My style comes from a balanced blend of documentary and editorial influences.

Brianna is beyond anything we could have imagined from our wedding photographer! We were very picky when we set out to look for wedding photographers - we wanted our photos to feel authentic and genuine to our personalities and we wanted a photographer who matched our overall wedding vibes. Brianna far exceeded our (very high) expectations. Brianna perfectly captured the beauty of every moment of our day. Plus, the super 8 film is stunning! It is amazing the emotion that Brianna captures in her work. And, as if it couldn't get any better, we felt such a genuine connection to Brianna. She was incredibly affirming to both me and my partner. I simply cannot imagine a better experience than the one we got with Brianna. If you are looking for a photographer who is responsive to your requests, a true artist, and affirming of queer love then look no further because Brianna is a perfect fit! - Annie Olson

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
We highly recommend Lily and her work is amazing! She took our engagement photos and then our wedding photos on a rainy day and they turned out so good. I have received so many compliments on my photos and we aren't sure how they turned out so incredible in the rain, but she is magic! If you are looking for a fun time and moody, earthy photos Lily is your girl! She is incredibly talented and won't let you down.

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!

My wife and I have done shoots with Caitlin for our engagement as well as for our wedding/post-wedding. We plan to have her take my wife’s maternity photos as well! We both cannot say enough good things about Caitlin. She makes the shoots super fun and she personalizes the experience to us as the couple. She listens to the ideas we have about what kind of photos we want and she makes them come to life. She has awesome ideas about poses/settings and the photos always turn out great. Caitlin is a great editor and the finished product is unmatched! For us though, the biggest plus is that the shoots are low-stress and enjoyable. I don’t normally like having my picture taken but I’m always excited for us to have a shoot with Caitlin because I know it will be fun! I’ve also been in a wedding party for my cousin that Caitlin photographed. It was cool being able to see how hard she works and how consistent the experience is when I wasn’t the one primarily being photographed. If you choose to have Caitlin as your photographer, you’ll definitely be glad you did!

Homeschoolin, Home birthin, and Holistic mama that loves to capture Life and Love in it's truest moments and forms. My business has been a decade in the making from falling in love with photography in high school, to now... My love for Milkweed and my time spent living in Iowa has inspired my business name. I used to live near a conservation center with fields of milkweed. My children and I spent many days enjoying this haven of beauty and were blessed to see thousands of Monarch butterflies migrate to the Milkweed. I realize how fleeting these moments are and would love to capture your story!

So easy to work with and professional! My labor went very quickly so photos were in the immediate postpartum. I love how each detail was captured so intimately to tell the story, so I can look back on those moments. She respected the environment and helped in any way to make sure I felt cared for-above and beyond being a photographer. We also did some newborn/family photos a few days later and she was very patient with my full of energy toddler, all while capturing the sweet details of our newborn. All of the photos are beautiful!! When I asked for a few edits to the gallery it was done and updated for me quickly.

She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles.

Writing an about me page is a terribly revealing experience! Who takes the time to think "Who am I?" or "How would I describe myself to other people?" The temptation is to brag and be pretentious in order to convince you that I'm important, but instead I looked at my life and made some amazing discoveries. My life revolves around people. I love people. When I need to make a decision the people that it will affect are always the number one priority.

Tim was absolutely the right choice for our wedding weekend! He made an effort to get to know everyone, he was punctual, focused, and kept us on track - all while having fun! He came with ideas and knew how to get the perfect photos! He delivered sneak peeks within days of our wedding and the full album before even a week had passed!

Over the past decade, I’ve transformed simple moments into unforgettable memories, working with over 30 couples each year. I take the time to get to know you—what makes your love story unique—and bring that to life in your proposal or wedding. Whether you want picture-perfect, luxe poses or prefer a more intimate vibe where a hug says it all, I’ve got the experience to capture it. From intimate elopements to grand celebrations, my goal is to create a personalized experience that reflects your love, your way.

Katrina from KJensen Images was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the very first call, she helped us feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, guiding us through poses and shots with ease. Katrina is hands down amazing at what she does - she can take your vision and turn it into lifelong memories. As a couple of newbies when it comes to photo shoots, Katrina made us feel like pros throughout the entire process. I highly, highly recommend her for all your photography needs!

Hi, I'm Alex! As a newlywed myself, I was in your shoes not too long ago. I've been in the industry for the past three years, and celebrating and capturing your love is my passion. I believe God gave me a gift that I am blessed to share with everyone, allowing you to keep these cherished memories forever!

Alexandria photographed both our engagement and wedding photos. In both experiences, she was punctual, flexible, kind and fun to work with. Her work is phenomenal (and reasonably priced!), and I couldn't recommend her more for your special moments! You can tell she loves what she does and puts maximum effort into ensuring your photos reflect gorgeous colors and truly capture the emotions. Her attention to detail is superb; throughout both experiences, she would kindly advise on hair and positioning to help my hubby and me look our best, in addition to having ready recommendations for the engagement photo venue, outfit ideas, wedding details, and photo books, among other things. She was a true asset to our wedding and I am so glad I had the opportunity to work with her.

I'm a Wedding and Portrait photographer based in Marshall Minnesota, with a love for travel! Ever since I saved up enough babysitting money to buy my first digital camera, I've had a passion for documenting life! I've become passionate about serving couples, families, and individuals, to tell their stories through images. There are so many exciting events in our lives and my goal is to save those images, emotions, and experiences for you to have for a lifetime.

Courtney Bicknese Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first conversation, Courtney's communication style was open, direct and genuinely kind - she took the time to understand our vision and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. The quality of her work is breathtaking, with a level of detail and innovation that truly captured all the special moments of our day so we could simply enjoy them to the fullest.

I've been a wedding and portrait photographer for almost 8 years. I was drawn into weddings after shooting my first one and loving how fun it was to hang with people on their best day ever. They're surrounded by their family and friends and so much love and happiness. I feel very fortunate to have a job that I love so much, that it doesn't feel like work. I'm married to my favorite person in the world and we love to travel. We have 3 kids, one son in law and 2 little grand babies that we completely adore!

You don’t know it yet, but you need Julie. She is absolutely amazing. Stop your photographer search here and choose Julie. She makes you feel so comfortable and that you’ve know her for years. Her passion for photography does not go unnoticed. Julie’s photos are of high quality and we absolutely love the natural brightness of her edits, even on gloomy days. Julie was so so easy to contact, was flexible and literally took stress off my plate. I cannot thank her enough. She was a huge part of our big day and wanted to make sure everything went as planned. She’s like a personal attendant and photographer and best friend all in one. You need Julie. We cannot wait to work with her (and her husband and team!) again! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

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.

True Visionaries that believe all love matters. We're Megan & Alec, A Midwest based Photo + Video duo ready to capture and tell your stories as we see them. We are lovers first and parents second, but both are equally as important. With those relationships as the foundation to our lives we understand more than anything the importance of a singular image or film. The tangible gift that we get to create with you and your loved ones is completely priceless and we hope that we can encapsulate emotions while holding space for you during our time together.

Beyond amazing. Megan & Alec are incredibly caring & talented visionaries. What they do the day of a wedding to ensure everything goes smoothly is way more than I could have ever expected. From video calls, to timeline creation, to helping with small details you would never even think. They are both super attentive & great listeners. We received a small preview the day after our wedding & are even more in awe of their work now than we were before. 10/10 in every way possible & I wouldn't hesitate to book them for any life event or photoshoot. What they are able to do together as a team is just truly out of this world & I am SO GRATEFUL they were the ones to capture our most memorable day yet.

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!!!
