Father. Husband. Quiet, creative type. I love creating wedding videos because the pure happiness and joy that every couple experiences never gets old. I've always been enamored with capturing raw emotion. That's why I like to joke that I'm a wedding ninja; I like to work in the shadows. I don't do too much set-up or too many poses, because I want you to be you. I also will do everything I can to make sure your wedding day goes flawlessly. I've been known to fasten boutonnieres, hold babies and save ceremonies from audio troubles.

On the day of, Jen was fantastic and kept everyone in line to make sure all the pictures we needed were done in a timely manner.

Erica did an outstanding job photographing our wedding earlier this month. We initially reached out to her because we heard she had photographed another wedding at our venue and we are so thankful we did. Her work is amazing and she is so fun to work with. Neither my husband or I enjoy having our picture taken but she made the whole day carefree and fun. She had a schedule for all the photos and everything went smoothly. We even ended up with extra time which allowed us to get some fun night shots in during the reception. I would highly recommend Erica to anyone looking for a photographer!

Hi, there! I am Allie, an internationally published fine art photographer. What's unique to my craft is the focus on small details to tell the complete story of your love. From your candid laughs together to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small. We’ve had so many sweet couples from around the world trust us - from our own backyard in MN to the Coasts & even Internationally. I've had the honor of being nominated as the Top 3 Photographers in MN & the experience of photographing over 150 weddings. But each feels completely unique & gives me the joy of butterflies

Awarded Best of Zola
First, we were immediately drawn to Allie’s timeless, bright, and airy photography style. From the moment that we spoke with Allie during our phone consultation, we felt very comfortable with her and knew she would be the perfect fit as our wedding photographer! Allie photographed our engagement session in downtown Stillwater, a boudoir session (Allie also designed a keepsake boudoir book that I gave to my husband as his wedding gift), and our wedding day. Throughout all of the sessions, Allie was kind, warm, patient, gave us helpful prompts/poses, and guided us every step of the way! Whenever I had questions regarding photography, Allie was very responsive and provided wonderful customer service. She also helped us to create a detailed photography timeline and shot list for the wedding day. On the wedding day, Allie and her second shooter were very professional, prepared, and helped to keep everyone on track, including the bridal party and our families. After the wedding, we received way more photos than we were expecting in our online gallery, which were beautifully edited with her special touch. Allie exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond in all areas. We’ll cherish our photos for years to come and highly recommend Alexandra Robyn Photo & Design!

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!

Our one and only day, July 27th, 2024, that no one can ever take back and redo. So we needed a comoany we could trust, and that wasn't a one size fits all. This company, you don't have to pick your DJ, they match the perfect one for you, and they did. It took a lot of trust and confidence put into them for this. But they nailed it. Told me they never go home early. That was also true. Danced all night. But, BUT.....The DJ's voice was amazing. Out grand march.....holy mazing! This DJ made it like we were stars and that set the mood and expectation for the rest of the night and man, did they deliver. They played every song we wanted, our guests music, and also picked ones that fit us very well. I'd say, over all A. Wouldn't look anywhere else as they have 23 DJs that fit every aspect of every wedding. Nice and job well done.

We loved having our wedding and reception at The Jerome! The staff and the venue itself we perfect - we loved the atmosphere and received so many compliments about the entire day! Our Day of Coordinator, Raleigh, was wonderful to work with from the day we toured through our wedding day! Thank you!!!! If you are looking for a charming, beautiful and unique wedding venue, this is it!

WOW, where do I begin. Kasey and Tyler are masters at what they do! From two different engagement sessions to our wedding day, they knew exactly how to get the "perfect shot". Our wedding day came with a small amount of "conveniently timed" rain (during our first look and wedding party photos!), and they knew exactly how to work with what we had (a tall tree to hide under and an umbrella..). The attached photo was taken during a downpour rain and it STILL looks beautiful!! They were incredibly organized and all photos were pre-planned so they had a set plan in order to avoid wasting time. They listened to what my husband and I wanted, and made sure we were taking care of ourselves (eh-hem, reminding us to eat multiple times throughout the day..). They were so easy going but didn't have a problem putting their foot down if a random family member or other vendor were "problematic" (per the brides request!!). I cannot wait to work with them again! THANK YOU Kasey and Tyler for being the best in the business!!! 3

Hi, I’m Libby! I’m a laidback photographer who loves capturing real moments and genuine connections. Whether it’s a wedding, engagement, or elopement, I’m all about creating photos that feel like you. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me exploring the outdoors, eating pizza, being cozy with my husband and pets, or planning my next adventure!

Libby Aos Photography is absolutely fabulous! From the very first interaction, Libby was warm, friendly and made us feel completely at peace. Her communication style is top-notch, and they truly went above and beyond to ensure our engagement was captured perfectly. The quality of her work is simply stunning - the photos are cinematic, strong, and absolutely gorgeous. Libby made us feel like models, teaching us how to pose naturally. She's a true genius behind the camera, and the final photos exceeded our wildest expectations. We still have family members raving about how beautiful the photos turned out. If you're looking for an engagement wedding photographer who will deliver exceptional results and make your special day feel even more magical, I highly recommend booking Libby Aos Photography. You won't be disappointed!

Is simple really. I want to capture real moments and create beautiful portraits for you. Portraits that you will enjoy looking at long after your wedding. I believe that wedding photography doesn't have to be boring. I don't want to just give you pictures. I want to create works of art that you will be proud to hang in your home. Building friendships & relationships are another goal of mine as well. If I have created a story documenting your day, we had some fun doing it, and your friends all say your wedding photographer was amazing then I accomplished my goal.

Wow, Nicole is simply amazing! Her work is stunning and got so much more than I ever expected! Her attention to detail and professionalizm is beyond my expectations! When hiring Nicole, you can certainly tell her what's important to you, but know that her skill is far better than you will ever dream of! The creative juices flow from this one... Nicole you are a ROCKSTAR!

Harmony was founded when we were searching for a DJ for our own wedding. We realized that the ideal DJ is someone who is passionate, experienced, and talented. Ultimately, what we were searching for was peace of mind, so we could be present for our loved ones and dance the night away! We get that you're searching for that too... ​ By focusing on your entertainment experience, we have grown into an award-winning boutique of DJs. Our passion is to bring people together through music and dancing. We'd love to hear your story & vision, and give you the ultimate entertainment experience.

Josh was absolutely AMAZING to work with. Honestly I cannot say enough good things. My husband and I have been to many weddings, and one thing we have learned is that the DJ/dance floor can make or break the night -- Harmony DJ DID NOT DISAPPOINT. They kept the party going the entire time.
