Our year is off to an amazing start, and we have so much to celebrate! We were awarded The Knot’s Best of Weddings award for 2024, and are so grateful to be included in their Best of Weddings Hall of Fame! Our work was also featured in Minnesota Bride’s Fall and Winter issue as well as in their Spring and Summer issue that was just released!
We were also incredibly honored to be featured in the Hutton House’s Newsletter’s Vendor Spotlight last month! Having now captured over 350 weddings, the Hutton House is the venue we have photographed at the most! It is easily one of our all-time favorite venues, and their staff is phenomenal to work with! To say we were excited when they reached out is an understatement; we were absolutely giddy after seeing their post on social media:
In addition to this incredible vendor feature, we are humbled to look back on a few of the emails we received this past year from our incredible couples and families! Here is what they had to say when we shared their images with them:
