Jessica Knighton Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $7,900
  • Serves Crystal Bay, MN

After celebrating my own 16th wedding anniversary, my partner and I have truly been able to reflect on what is important on a wedding day, and I'm here to bring the wisdom to you! I believe that digital photography and images are a HUGE gift and can provide us with so many more memories than we were previously able to retain. And, just like reading a physical book vs. an e-book, prints hit different. You're not photographing your own wedding — you're trusting a professional to lead you through the best experience you can have and to give you the best art you can get.

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).

Just got married at Brookview and had the most amazing experience. Kailyn was great to work with, answered all of our questions (we had a lot!), and made sure all of the details were ready to go. There was rain right before the Ceremony and the staff was so proactive about wiping off chairs and helping us make the decision to move our cocktail hour indoors. With unexpected rain on my wedding day, I was so appreciative that they were on top of these sorts of things and I didn’t have to worry. We catered the Taco Bar from Three One Six and got so many compliments on the food. Guests were so happy and it is truly a beautiful venue. Overall, if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. It was a perfect day and a perfect venue. Thank you Brookview!

Hey there! I'm Eric, an outdoor-loving, laid-back wedding photographer based in the Midwest who lives for capturing those real, unfiltered moments that make each love story unique. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll probably find me hiking trails or discovering new local breweries.

The best photos happen when couples feel completely at ease and free to be themselves.

Quinn and I were blown away by our photos. The entire experience felt effortless, like hanging out with a friend. Eric is incredibly laid-back and easygoing, which made the session so enjoyable.

Our customized attention to your hair, skin and makeup will ensure that on your special day, you will be uniquely, meticulously beYOUtiful. Primping included.

You cannot go wrong with Primped! I had Lindsay for makeup and Allie for hair - they were wonderful! They did my hair, 4 bridesmaids, my mother-in-law, and my mom’s hair. I cannot say enough about how great they both were! We were able to meet and do a trial before the wedding to discuss the look I wanted both in terms of makeup and hair, and they both ensured I was completely comfortable with the end results. All of the other women who had their hair and makeup done loved the end result. Allie and Lindsay were both excellent about ensuring everyone had as much or as little "extra" in their makeup or hair. For instance, my mother-in-law is not as comfortable with a lot of glamour, so Lindsay and Allie were great about ensuring her hair and makeup were more natural compared to some of the others. They are both also just such kind people who were a welcome addition to our morning of getting ready - everyone had rave reviews for them. Primped is a wonderful company with great people who work for them. My hair and makeup lasted all night and I loved the way I looked :) The cost is definitely worth it - you won't regret hiring them!

Betsey and her team were absolute stars from day one. In a few words, professional, hardworking, and experts. I trusted everything they had to say. I went in to my bridal makeup and hair trial having an idea of what I wanted, but no idea on how best to execute. Betsey took the reigns and worked with my skin to achieve an exceptional look. Her team was incredible with hair too! Giving feedback has always been a little challenging for me, but calling Betsey up a few months before the wedding to discuss some changes to make was no issue. She came prepared with blotting papers, energy, and all the equipment necessary to tame the whole crew - even the ones that wanted last minute lashes and lipstick and hadn't paid yet. Luminous Beauty was on time, set up and tore down efficiently, and were strategic in their timeline for applying things like lipstick to achieve maximum impact for photos. Sitting in their chairs was like sitting in your own little bubble with them. You feel like you're the only person in the room, and they treat you with so much kindness and consideration. My mother and mother in law were not prepared with their look, but with some targeted questions by Luminous Beauty, they were looking like their best selves and were all extremely happy with the outcome. Luminous Beauty also showed us all how to insert and remove my veil which was a little tricker than expected! But we did it and it was an absolute success!. Everyone looked incredible that day, and we owe it all to Betsey and Luminous Beauty. An incredible team.

STUDIO x SARAH was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding day beauty!! From the very start, her communication was prompt, and she brought such great energy to every interaction! She was incredibly flexible, taking the time to do a second makeup trial with me when I wasn't quite sure about the right look. Her attention to detail and ability to turn my inspiration into reality was truly impressive. She is a great listener, very receptive to my feedback, and made wonderful suggestions to achieve my desired look, enhancing my hair with creative ideas. Beyond her talent, Sarah also has an authentic, compassionate energy on the wedding day, noticing when I needed a moment and discreetly getting my Maid of Honor to help me settle. I felt so taken care of, and my hair and makeup turned out beautifully. I wanted an elegant modern make up look, and an updo for my long curly hair that was somewhere between Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice and a Greek goddess. She NAILED IT. BOOK BOOK BOOK! This is who you want doing your hair and make up!

My husband got married here in August of 2023 after the remodel and it was so beautiful. The Plymouth room was so beautiful and perfect for dinner and dancing. The balcony was also fantastic for guests to have space to hang out outside during cocktail hour. The garden was so exquisite that we did not need any decorations! There was plenty of parking for everyone and easy for guests to find. We worked with Nicole and she was so organized and answered all of my questions to make the day so smooth. We had the best experience at Plymouth Creek Center and would recommend this venue to anyone who wants a ceremony and reception in one beautiful spot!

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.

"We are so happy we hired Sharon for the ceremony and cocktail hour for our wedding! During the planning, Sharon was incredibly communicative and helpful-- she played several pieces via zoom which really helped us conceptualize the ceremony. Undoubtedly, she is a gifted performer. Additionally, she was so accommodating with my family and had several suggestions we incorporated into our ceremony. She even accompanied my aunt on the flute for a lovely duet during our unity candle. She went above and beyond to make my day perfect; I received so many compliments! I HIGHLY recommend hiring her!"

Hi! I'm Anna and I’m a queer wedding photographer who specializes in LGBTQIA+ weddings here in MN and all over! I’m an adventurous soul who loves to get lost in the wilds of nature. I approach my photography the same way. Every shoot and every wedding is a new adventure. Sure, we might have a basic roadmap, but I want us to be open to exploring the lesser-traveled trails and the secret paths that line our route. That’s the kind of thing that’s going to make your wedding totally unique to you two! I'm a human just like you and I want to make all HUMANS feel totally comfortable around me and my camera. So let's connect and share some kindness!

Anna was absolutely amazing to work with! She was so generous with her time and resources helping us think through the logistics of the day, and was really thoughtful about the way she made sure she knew what things were most important to us. Not to mention the finished product of all of the photos was so incredibly beautiful! We were especially excited about the nighttime lantern pictures, and we're blown away by how cool those turned out! She made us as well as our family and friends feel so comfortable. She went way above and beyond our expectations, both in how she was to work with day-of as well as the finished product. We are so glad we chose Wildly Connected!

We hired WPI for my makeup for our engagement photos in September and for hair and makeup for our wedding (including a trial in February) on 4/25/25 at Edward Anne Estate. Amanda was the artist I worked with and I can’t say enough great things about her! Working with her for our engagement photos and my wedding HMU trial, she took the time to ask detailed questions and fully understand what I wanted/the look I was going for. She was great at communicating and providing a safe space for me to give feedback on what I liked/didn’t like, took detailed notes and photos, and made sure I loved the final result. On the day of my wedding, she was such a calming presence and helped me through the roller coaster of emotions you have as you’re getting ready for your wedding. She made me feel comfortable, listened to feedback, and made sure I was completely happy with my final look. We just got our photos back and I am obsessed with how my hair and makeup turned out and how it lasted all day! I can’t recommend Amanda enough for her skills but also her as a person! The rest of the team did an amazing job the day of, my bridesmaids and mothers all looked beautiful, they were on time, and professional, and made the morning run smoothly! WPI was great to work with from start to finish and I would highly recommend them to any future brides!
