Kelly Morin Photography 
White Bear Lake, MN
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

Welcome to my little online corner! I'm Kelly, a wedding, family, and brand photographer based in Minnesota. My goal with photography is to capture YOU! Your love. Your adventures. Your snuggles. Your chaos. Whatever it is that makes you, you, I want THAT to come through in your photos. I’m always looking for ways to direct less and simply create an environment for you to be. For many years I shot exclusively with film and although I shoot with it less now, my style is still very film driven. All editing is done to emulate film. It’s timeless, not trendy. You’ll never look back and cringe at that year’s filter trend.

the suite seat

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves White Bear Lake, MN

One of my favorite parts of working with brides is putting to rest all of their fears about why they might not be able to have the style they’re envisioning to complete their look. Hair too fine, not long enough, won’t hold a curl… I’ve heard it all. And I love the look on my bride’s face when we work together to make her “impossible” vision come to life. I consider it a high honor to style a bride for a day in which she’ll be memorialized in photos for all time. When you’re in the suite seat, i promise you’ll love what you see in those photos. Enough about me. Let’s talk about your hair!

Kristy is the absolute best of the best!! From my very first email with her until the day of the wedding, she was nothing but kind, punctual, professional, and everything in between. Not to mention, she did an incredible job on not only my hair, but on all 5 of my bridesmaids as well. Everyone's hair looked amazing, and stayed that way all night! I would recommend Kristy over and over again!

Hey there, my name is Grant Fitzgerald. I am an wedding videographer, photographer, actor and husband living in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I have always had a ridiculous obsession with love. This fixation on love culminated in my sophomore year in high school when I met the love of my life. We married nine years later.

Grant somehow is able to capture moments, be everywhere all at once, and still keeping such an ease about him that makes the video-shooting process effortless, comfortable and without even realizing he's there. We love working with Grant because we know that the entire event is in amazing hands getting captured while we work tirelessly behind the scenes. It's in the name, not videos - but 'films.' That's what you'll get with Fitzgerald Films - films. Highly recommend on checking him out!

Awarded Best of Zola
We used Green Mill Catering for our wedding this April, and I can't say enough good things about them! The biggest feedback we got on our wedding was that it was the best food they had ever tasted. We had a hard time choosing during the tasting, because everything was just so good! They are really flexible with the menu arrangement, and even made a custom-requested dessert for us. They accommodated every request and question, and were so patient as we debated our choices. I wish I had more photos of the meals, but the presentation was equally as great! Everything was truly delicious, but we especially recommend trying the almond crusted chicken, the mashed potatoes, the crab-stuffed mushrooms, the coconut chicken skewers, the mini walleye cakes, the Swedish meatballs, and the mini shooters.

Our team sets the stage and orchestrates the flow so you can simply enjoy the experience, stress-free.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kastina Morrison is the epitome of event excellence. We hired Kastina & Co. for day-of (really, month-of) wedding coordination for our outdoor ceremony at a non-traditional farm venue. Kastina dove right in, offering a curated list of 5-star vendors, brainstorming for decor, and setting several meetings to keep things on track. We had a lot of cannabis elements (a very new thing in Minnesota), but Kastina was able to help us find the right partners to stay compliant and classy. The best part, aside from Kastina’s immensely positive and creative spirit, is her organizational skills. She created many invaluable documents, including an incredibly detailed run-of-show that outlined our wedding down to the minute. Every single person, whether it was a vendor, a wedding party person, or a family member, knew precisely where they needed to be when. This document alone was worth its weight in gold as it allowed me (the bride) to enjoy my special day, and helped ease the mind of my anxious MIL (not an easy feat). On the day of, Kastina and her team worked their tails off to ensure things went off without a hitch - including repairing a wind-damaged tent. It could have spelled disaster for our reception, but somehow Kastina saved the day. And I didn’t even know it happened until the very end of the night. She’s just that good. If you’re considering hiring Kastina & Co., do not hesitate. It will be the best decision you ever made. Our wedding even made it into Minnesota Bride magazine thanks to Kastina’s brilliant execution!

He arrived early and helped our whole wedding run extremely smoothly. He checks in just enough to make sure everything is going well, but lets you enjoy the day to its fullest. Beyond that, the band is seriously SO talented. Wayyyy above and beyond your average wedding cover band - they are some of the most talented musicians I know. They are also experts at making the dance interactive for your guests - we had a packed dance floor the entire night (a feat for a Sunday wedding)! The pricing is very transparent, and you can pick and choose the combination of things that works for you so you are not paying for a bunch of things you don't want. 10/10 would recommend!

A’bulae is wonderful! My husband and I do not live in town so we chose the Essentials Package with A’bulae so it would make the planning easier. It really did help everything go smoothly! First, the A’bulae venue is gorgeous and perfect for any weather condition (which helped me not to feel stressed!). The people working at A’bulae respond to emails promptly and professionally. They also help lay out a day-of schedule and handle a lot of the planning. They reach out and meet with the couple several times throughout the wedding planning process to put everyone at ease. Another plus is their in-house decorations, linens, chairs, and tables they set up for weddings. They have several options you can choose from. Further, while A’bulae does require you to use their in-house catering, the food is amazing. All the apps and entrees we chose were delicious. Above all, my favorite part about A’bulae is how they allow you to personalize your wedding as you see fit. My husband and I made our own monogram and cake topper, we made a slideshow to scroll during the social hour, my husband played piano, and we did an about-the-couple trivia game on the screens. It was really fun and made the event special and unique to us. A’bulae worked really hard to make this happen. Even when there was a slight technology issue, they called someone to figure out the solution remotely, and they had the problem solved very quickly. The team worked hard to make everything seamless. Overall, we had an amazing experience, and I’m really glad we chose A’bulae.

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Meg made us feel so comfortable from the moment we met her. Our photoshoot felt like just hanging out with a friend, we were so at ease I almost forgot we were in front of a camera! If you’re looking for a photographer to make you and your partner feel special, and get some BOMB photos, I highly recommend Meg!

We worked with Antigone and Kafe 421 to plan an outdoor wedding and reception for 25 in October 2020. From start to finish, the 421 team was approachable, professional, and efficient. Antigone was creative and accommodating in planning not only lovely menu, but also a safe, COVID aware way of serving our guests. She also arranged to have a rental company rep meet us on site for an outdoor planning meeting, so we could all make decisions together on a tent, tables, chairs, etc. The extensive and varied menu choices made our reception dinner a very special one. The 421 crew were a delight to have on site. They clearly enjoyed their work, were friendly in their service, and anticipated what needed to be done. Antigone and team provided an organized framework, delicious & well presented food, and unsurpassed service, all of which gave us the gift of enjoying our party. We loved working with Kafe 421!

I recently had my wedding at North Garden Theater and could not have been happier. This was such a gem to find. Ryan and Tina were amazing to work with, so responsive and helpful. You can tell they really care about making sure your event goes perfectly. Tables, chairs and linens came with the rental, which most places do not do. We got to customize the lighting, the dance party lighting (which is extensive with fog machine!), and the entire layout. They have a bar onsite and the cocktails were great! They were able to serve our guests very quickly. We used multiple Spotify playlists for our music and Ryan was on point switching between them at the right times. The facilities were amazing too; large dressing room to get ready, and nice big bathrooms that they continually cleaned throughout the night. They are also big on reducing waste so we were able to use all compostable cups, which we also had our caterer use all compostable plates and silverware. I really do not have enough great things to say about Ryan, Tina and NGT; they made such a magical day for us!!!
