Welcome to a world of modern romance and timeless elegance, where tales of both the young and old are beautifully captured. A picture is worth a thousand words - I'm inspired by the charm of old films reimagined in the present, I weave the old into the new with the timeless elegance and meaning.

Her vision and attention to detail were beyond what we hoped for, and it's clear she is passionate about her work. Not only did she take our engagement photos, but we’ve also gained a lifelong photographer—and a true friend. She’s incredibly detail-oriented, guiding us with how to pose, angle our heads, and position our arms, making sure we always looked our best. Our entire bridal party loved working with her and appreciated her direction. If you're looking for a photographer with a modern, romantic, classy and elegant style, Irina is your go-to!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I recently got married on the north shore of Lake Superior, and we hired Toly to capture our special day. He was amazing from the start! He was passionate about capturing the best photos possible and had a particularly great eye for scoping out spots with the best lighting. He for sure exceeded expectations - we genuinely could not imagine our wedding without him. He provided us with our photos about a month after the wedding, and we were able to see sneak peaks before then. The photos he delivered were absolutely spectacular! Would highly recommend!!

Jeff Dose Photography

Maple Grove, MN
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Offer

I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I love being out doors, visiting new places, and photographing people that are a little crazy for each other. I believe each person and every relationship is overflowing with worth and value and my aim is to draw that out and capture it in frames. My hope is that, years from now, you’ll look at the photos of your wedding and be reminded of the awesome relationship you have.

My wife and I got married in June 2023. We met with a few photographers and never had a doubt it would be Jeff! Organized. First and foremost the pictures need to look good, sure. However, that all depends on if everyone is where they need to be in a timely manner. Jeff did a great job keeping everything organized but in a very nice way. Other weddings I've been in people seem to be rushed and the pictures show that, but that's not the case here. The photographer needs to be "on it" and Jeff certainty is. Creative. My wife and I look back on our wedding photos often. I believe a huge part of that is how different and unique each photo is. It was great taking pictures at so many different locations to let Jeff's artistic side really show! Professional. Jeff was always willing to meet and plan with us as much as we needed. Anything specific he was open to make happen. He treated everyone (in the wedding party or not) with so much respect. We received many complainants on this! Photo Quality. The quality is exceptional. Seriously, the best there is!

Maple Grove, MN

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,800

Fueled by equal parts strong coffee and French 75's, I spend my days capturing the kinds images that convey distinctive emotion through intentional moments and create elevated images you'll treasure for a lifetime. I showcase your story and love in an exceptional gracious way. I believe in real moments, heartfelt conversations, love stories that grow stronger through the storms and the kind of joy that can be found in the simplest of moments. When I'm not tearing up during the vows you'll find me in the kitchen whipping up a new recipe, dancing to Sinatra with my husband, or snuggling with my mini me.

Working with Rohana was one of the best experiences. She was fun, professional, hilarious, and prepared. Her photos were incredible. She was an essential aspect of the wedding team.

On the day of the wedding we decided to tweak a couple of things and she executed them all with perfection. My wedding day was the hottest day of the year and still my makeup stayed flawless from morning to night!

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.

​From start to finish Jess was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and collaborative. Her skills as a photographer, editor, and creative professional were immediately apparent-- and very much appreciated when we received the photos of our special day. Jess was eager to meet us where we were at and come alongside us in achieving our vision for our wedding. She was adaptive and accommodating. We really cannot praise her highly enough. Put simply, she was an instrumental part of our wedding being a success. And now we have tangible memories that we will cherish forever. Not insignificantly among them, the absolute pleasure of working with Jess. Thank you!!

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting our wedding at The Van Dusen Mansion, and it was truly a dream come true. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was the perfect place for us. The mansion is absolutely stunning, and the team’s professionalism made the planning process smooth and enjoyable. After placing our deposit, we received a clear and detailed planning timeline, which the team stuck to from beginning to end. Monica, the venue director, was incredibly responsive and genuinely excited to work with us. We were planning a hybrid cultural wedding, which can sometimes be daunting for vendors, but Monica embraced it wholeheartedly and made us feel supported every step of the way. We also appreciated the flexibility of being able to tour the venue multiple times without any pushback. By the time our wedding day arrived, it truly felt like we were inviting guests into our own home. One thing to note: the venue requires that the get-ready rooms be cleaned out before the ceremony begins. This was a bit inconvenient as things got hectic, and we recommend couples assign someone specifically to manage that, as we did lose track of a few personal items after the event. The only other downside is that you're required to use their exclusive catering partner, Mintahoe (we've left a separate review for them). Overall, we couldn’t be happier with our experience. The Van Dusen Mansion is a stunning venue with a fantastic team, and we’re so grateful to have celebrated our special day there! Photo cred: @storytellercoweddings

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!

From the moment we first visited the hotel, we were impressed by its elegance and beautiful spaces. The staff was welcoming, and overall atmosphere was perfect for our wedding. A special shoutout goes to our event manager Becca! She was absolutely Phenomenal. From out initial planning meetings to the big day itself, Becca made everything seamless and stress-free. Her attention to detail, organization, and communication were outstanding. She listened to our vision and went above and beyond to bring it to life, ensuring that every aspect of our wedding was executed flawlessly. On the day of the wedding, Becca was a calming presence, coordinating with all the vendors and making sure everything ran on schedule.
