My name is Kerri Kurz and I can't wait to meet you! Before we meet I want to tell you a little bit about me. I have a degree in Professional Wedding and Portrait Photography from Hennepin Technical College and I have been creating photographic memories since 2002. I continue my education by attending classes and seminars throughout the year. Attending these classes helps me stay on top of the latest trends in the business and allows me to give you the best creative gift I have to offer!

Kerri Ann was communicative from the start of the whole wedding process. She helped us, as we were wedding planning, make a mock schedule of how the day could flow. She was always willing to go the extra mile for us. She accomendated us when we said we wanted our engagement photos in Duluth, Minnesota. We met with her a couple of weeks before the wedding to make a plan of all the different photographs we wanted as a couple and she was attentive and made notes to ensure we got all the photos we wanted for our special day. On our wedding day, Kerri and Ava, helped so much with us staying on schedule and getting all the photos we wanted. Ava helped get all the groomsmen photos while Kerri got all the bridal party ones. Having 2 photographers helped so much on the day of. We got our photos back really quickly and they all turned out amazing. It's hard to pick a favorite as well as which ones we'll want to hang up since we love so many of them. Thanks so much, Kerri and Ava, for all you did on our wedding day!

Jessica Knighton Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $7,900
  • Serves Fort Ripley, 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
We had a wonderful experience with Jessica Knighton Photography. Even though we booked last minute, Jessica was kind, communicative, and incredibly helpful the whole way through. She went above and beyond—helping coordinate the location and even providing beautiful florals. Our wedding photos turned out absolutely stunning, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

Adam and MB are the absolute best. They photographed our fall wedding 2024 at the St Paul College Club, as well as an engagement photo session the summer in Minneapolis. They are transparent about pricing, and very generous with their time and attention to detail. All of our photographs are amazing. I’m not one for family photo sessions, etc. But Adam and MB are so fantastic that I plan to work with them in the future - just to keep them in our lives. We would give them 6 (or a hundred) stars if we could.

Hello, I’m Rachel! I am a wedding, portraits, and events photographer based in Minneapolis. I’ve been a professional photographer since 2012, and have experience photographing over 500 weddings. I think I have the best job in the world. My approach is to capture the story of your wedding day, from start to finish. Because no two couples (or weddings) are exactly alike, I customize my approach specific to you. From the moment we connect, it’s my goal to help you feel at-ease. I'll help you plan your day, work with you to find the best locations for photos, guide you through poses, and we'll make it fun!

Rachel did an amazing job for both our engagement and wedding photos. I knew she was the right fit during our first meeting in which I could see her organization, professionalism, and expertise. I felt completely as ease throughout our wedding day knowing we would get all the pictures we asked for, and more. She was so kind and helpful (and did a great job wrangling a large family/wedding party). Our pictures are beautiful and I can’t recommend her enough!

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!!

My mission is to provide not only exceptional and quality photographs, but to be the trusted advisor and give a noteworthy experience to every couple. I'm here to uplift you and capture your genuine selves with stunning images. My photos are true to color and I shoot a mixture of both candid and posed shots so you have a variety of images to look back on. Cheers!

I don’t have enough time for all the good things I have to say about Rachel! We had her take our engagement pictures first so we could get comfortable in front of the camera and with each other. Working with her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was so friendly from the moment we met her, and she instantly made us feel at ease in front of the camera, which is something we didn’t expect to happen so naturally. Throughout the entire day, she was so kind, patient, and reassuring, all while clearly knowing exactly what she was doing. We’re not naturals when it comes to photos and she knew exactly where our hands should be, which side to look or stand, she posed us perfectly. She captured every angle, every detail, and every emotion without ever making anything feel forced or staged. We genuinely felt cared for, and it shows in the photos. We couldn’t be happier with our experience or the memories she preserved for us. We will forever have a special place in our hearts for the amazing memories that Rachel created and we look forward to using her for every picture opportunity in the future!!
