Xsperience Photography

  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Fort Ripley, MN

Trisha puts her heart and soul into this business. She loves bringing out the best in people, making them feel comfortable, and showing them how absolutely perfect their own little story is in this big ole busy world. She craves adventure, loves to travel and believes the prettiest pictures are captured on film because they are real and perfectly imperfect. She can't decide if she wants to be an adventure photographer or a fine art wedding photographer so she combines the two styles and makes it her own.

Trisha did such an amazing job capturing our wedding. She was such a warm and lovely presence to have on our day, and the photos are just to die for. She brought her daughter as her second photographer who took amazing polaroid photos and shot our beautiful wedding video. Outside of our wedding day, Trisha worked closely with us leading up to the day. She made time to travel to us before the wedding for a complimentary engagement shoot, and put in effort to get to know us. Her work speaks for itself but know by booking her, you're also getting an amazing collaborator to help you plan your special day.

Tim Larsen Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Fort Ripley, MN

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 Larsen Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. Tim's communication was on top of everything - he responded quickly to emails and calls, and kept us informed every step of the way. The quality of his work and value were the best we could have had. Not only did Tim capture incredible photos that we will treasure forever, his rates were very reasonable. Tim is so personable, witty, and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. He really contributed to making our wedding day go smoothly. In addition to taking fantastic photos, Tim helped create a seamless schedule, provided vendor recommendations, and went above and beyond in many little ways. We can't recommend Tim highly enough for wedding photography services. His professionalism, talent and friendly demeanor lead to photos we never dreamed we could have. Thanks Tim!

When you become my client, you become my friend. I'll be your photographer, but I'm also your hype girl and biggest fan. I'll fix the lipstick smudge before you can even ask, I can even sew a rip in a wedding dress before you walk down the aisle (yes, I am speaking from experience!), and you can catch me on the dance floor at your reception.

Lexi was the best decision we made! From our chilly engagement session to the wedding day, she made us feel at ease and guided us through everything with warmth and humor. She captured every moment—both big and small—with care and creativity. She even surprised us with printed Polaroids on the day, which was so special! Her photos are stunning, and we truly love them all. Lexi is talented, thoughtful, and an absolute joy to work with!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Hey there!! My name is Alexis and I'm so glad you're here. 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.

I had Alexis (and Sam) photograph my wedding at the Avalon Events Center on 6/13. She was awesome every step of the way, from having a huge bag of wedding kit items, helping pose and manage family for photos, and coming up with ideas for photos to make use of the large gap of time we had between the ceremony and the grand march. I don't think I saw her and Sam put down their cameras the entire 8 hours they were there on that day, so I'm excited to get the full gallery of photos! She was also able to rush us out for some awesome sunset photos when we only had a few minutes to get them. Cannot recommend her highly enough! Her price is extremely reasonable for the great quality of service and photos she provides.

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

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.

It's amazing how one day someone walks into your life, and suddenly you can't remember how you ever lived without them! It's been my life's mission to beautifully capture every couple's love story along with every new chapter in their lives (from proposals to growing families). Studio Delphianblue was founded in 2013 and is a fully woman-owned company based out of Burnsville MN. We DO travel outside of the Twin Cities metro area! I absolutely LOVE photographing proposals, engagement sessions and weddings, and my passion is reflected in my photography work.

From the first time we spoke, Danielle at Studio Delphianblue demonstrated her commitment to capturing our wedding perfectly. She was very easy to communicate with, and answered any questions we had. We didn’t know exactly what we wanted at first, but she asked all the right things to help us create a vision and guide us through it. She was thorough, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. She truly went above and beyond, ensuring we got all the shots we wanted and some we didn't even know we needed! The quality of her work is exceptional - she is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and brought a fun energy to the day. Every photo we've seen has exceeded our expectations, and she even uploaded our sneak peek photos quickly so we could share them with our loved ones. It honestly feels criminal to try and pick just one to attach to this review! We highly recommend Danielle and Studio Delphianblue to anyone looking for an amazingly talented photographer.
