I am a certified photographer. I specialize in lifestyle images, which also includes engagement and wedding photography. I find great joy in the art of capturing the merging of two lives as they become one. I understand the importance of capturing the beauty, emotion, and intricacies of the day so that they can be remembered forever. It is an honor for me to work alongside you and your family and capture this monumental milestone. My sessions are filled with laughs, crazy stories, and adventures. I can't wait to meet you! I also speak Spanish.

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!!

We had an incredible experience working with Chris for both our engagement session and our wedding day. From start to finish, he exceeded every expectation we had. For our engagement photos, he made the entire shoot so fun, especially because we were able to include our pets. They turned out beautiful. It was the perfect start to our wedding journey. On our wedding day, he was just as impressive. Not only was he punctual and professional, but he also took the time to review our shot list and make sure we stayed on schedule. We took photos before the ceremony and family photos afterward, and he worked so efficiently that we actually ended up early to our reception. We received 50 sneak peek photos by Monday, and they were absolutely stunning. We love that he gave us access to all of the photos he took- he gave them to us on a flash drive and gave us a drop box link so we could immediately share it with friends and family. One of our favorite parts of working with him is that we get to keep all the photos he took, not just the edited ones. It truly feels like we get to relive every moment of the day. With his experience (including having shot at both of our venues before), he made everything feel effortless. We never had to worry—he knew exactly where to be, what shots to prioritize, and how to capture our day perfectly. We are so grateful we chose him and can’t recommend him enough.

Graduated with an A.A.S. in Photography and B.S. in Information Systems. I like to remain as true to the day as possible so you will see there is very little filtering in my photographs. That being said, I do retouch what is requested. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my kids, dogs and husband.

Kat and Kayla took my daughter wedding and reception pictures. Both were professional at the same time very cordial to all the guests. They were patient and knew when to take those magical pictures. All my guests were comfortable following there directions. I have seen the pics and there are excellent quality. I would definitely give them a 5 star rating.

Happiness looks amazing on everyone, and my style is centered around just that. If you're looking for joyful, genuine images that are as unique as you are, then you've come to the right place!

We worked with Hilary as the as our second shooter on our big day! We didn't know her beforehand, but she instantly won us over with her awesome skills and friendly personality. Hilary has a wonderful eye for detail. The pictures truly speak for themselves. Every time we look at them, we're reminded of the emotions and memories we felt on that special day. She's got the skills, the eye for detail, and an amazing personality to match. We're so grateful to have had her as part of our special day, and we'll cherish the memories she captured forever.

My name is Meredith. I’m a self-taught photographer, an avid hiker, and a person who loves getting lost in their own city. If I am not photographing, you will either find me in one of two places, a coffee shop or out in nature usually eating my favorite snacks in fish form (Swedish or Gold), or belting anything from musicals to early 2000s country (yes there is a difference) to 90’s hip hop jams.

Awarded Best of Zola
Meredith is amazing! She's so easy to work with, she kept up with my neurotic emails and texts. She's great at communicating all details and scheduling. She is just the most down to earth soul you'll meet. She did a fantastic job at corralling my family for our group picture. I have a HUGE family, and it's not easy to get us all in one spot (especially with children and babies all over) But Meredith was so patient with us. She managed to get AMAZING shots in the chaos. Everyone loved her aura. She really captured the love that was shared that day. I am forever grateful for her capturing our special day.

I've always had an interest in photography, but my passion really took off when I had my first child. There is something special about capturing children in the moments of pure joy. The special moments in people's lives, sometimes lasting only an instant, are the reason I decided to pursue a career in photography. I live for taking that perfect candid shot. Weddings, children at play, engagements, all of them offer their moments, maybe even one, that you can never get back. My goal is to always capture those moments you can look back and reflect on for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jake is SOooo great to work with and I couldn’t recommend him and Two Oaks Photography more. He took our engagement photos as well and was so easy to work with, he had great ideas for poses to try and entertained all of my ideas too. I knew when I got those pics back that I definitely made the right choice for a wedding photographer! He was with us ALL DAY and night on our wedding day, going to both the bride and groom locations of getting ready and then never missed a beat all day (and night when he even took pics at the bar after the reception!!). He brought in a second photographer too which put me at ease that literally every moment of our day was being captured. Jake is the best and definitely comes highly recommended by me and my husband!!!

Hey there, I'm Bethany. I love meeting people, celebrating people, and making people feel awesome. My photography is all about authenticity and a sense of adventure! I'm a love-obsessed individual whose passion and joy come from telling visual stories. I use a natural approach to photograph every smile, tear, and embrace shared on your special day. I believe that by being unobtrusive I can capture moments that aren’t staged, and are full of life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Bethany was the photographer for a wedding I planned. She was already hired by the couple when I came on board and I hadn't worked with her so I wasn't sure what to expect. I really appreciated her communication ahead of the day by letting me know what she needed in order to get the shots she needed but was also able to work within the timeline we needed. She was able to hit up three different locations on the day for photos with a ton of ground to cover and she got it all covered! The pictures were definitely amazing and overall she was just to work with.

I'm a Saint Paul-based intimate wedding and elopement photographer, immigrant from Venezuela, mom to a semi-feral rescue dog, extroverted introvert, and proud Leo (duhhhhh). As someone who grew up hating rom-coms and avoiding all things lovey-dovey, no one was more surprised than me when I found myself photographing weddings and crying at every ceremony and father-of-the-bride speech. My cold heart melted, and now I can't imagine doing anything other spending the day with two folks who are madly in loooove.

We had such great experiences with Kat! She did our engagement and wedding photos, and she made us feel comfortable from the start. Throughout both days with her, Kat kept the mood light, the experience fun, and kept us and our wedding party on track. The schedule Kat helped us make for our wedding day was so helpful, and she held us to it on the actual day to keep us on time. We've been so happy with the photos we have from our wedding season, and can't wait to share them with our families and hang them on the walls of our home.

I have a passion to share raw and real moments between people. I want to be able to tell stories the way our eyes experience things. Keeping them as authentic as they can be. When you look at my images I want you to be able to feel all of the emotions behind the image itself.

Hannah Kristine Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Her communication style was easy, focused, helpful, and communicative from the very beginning. The quality of her work was truly professional, producing beautiful and special photos that captured all the important moments of our special day. Hannah prioritized making sure I was comfortable and okay on my wedding day, always being so sweet and helpful. She created a detailed timeline and made sure she knew exactly which photos were most important to us. I didn't have to worry about the photography at all during the wedding because I had full confidence that Hannah would be taking amazing shots. She helped us feel confident and natural while she was taking the photos. Overall, Hannah Kristine Photography provided an amazing experience and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful photos we have to remember our wedding day.

On the day of the wedding, her team was incredibly helpful, and kept our wedding party on track as we moved between locations. They stayed calm and confident, guiding us through each shot with fun and thoughtful prompts. The final images are absolutely stunning - the perfect combination of staged, candid and detail shots.

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
​Working with Jessica Knighton Photography was hands down one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. From the first time we reached out, she was the most helpful a human could be—from walking through a possible timeline before we even committed to hiring her to sending her wedding guide with tips and tricks and suggestions for other vendors and going along with our not-so-conventional pool party engagement shoot, she made two awkward introverts feel so comfortable both with and without her camera pointed at them. Of all the variety of vendors I spoke with, Jess exceeded every expectation in a way nobody else was able to. She was so kind checking in with us throughout the entire planning process, delivered both our galleries so quickly, and most of all DELIVERED with the best photos to help us remember our day. We simply adored every single one of the photos... like, in a wanna lay on the floor and scream about it, sing her praises from every mountain top even though I'm not a hiker, accidentally send her a thousand and one heart-eyed emojis, bend the knee because forget Sansa Stark she is MY queen of the north type of way. They all feel so very "us" in a way that would be almost frightening if it wasn't so impressive. In a year, or five, or ten or fifty, I can't wait to look back and remember all the little details, how much love we felt, and how much fun it all was. It'll be easy to do because it's written in every picture a thousand times over. I would recommend working with Jess in every universe. She's truly the best in the biz. ​Especially if you have a two year old niece as your flower girl who isn't so sure about the whole "photos" thing, because she'll probably be very sure of Jess and even smile a time or two. If you don't believe me, ask literally anybody in my family (we still talk about how great she is a frankly concerning amount).

I bring a calm energy to the day, help build a relaxed timeline, and make sure the focus stays where it belongs: on you two soaking it all in and having the best day ever.

Keighla, her photos, and her work quality are the BEST! From the start, she is super responsive - the first sign of a quality vendor. Then throughout the planning process, she guided us through our day of timeline and logistics with ease, giving us tips and guidance on all things wedding. We were okay not taking engagement photos until Keighla suggested that we do them in order to get comfortable in front of the camera and meet her before our wedding day. So smart! We loved taking those photos and are so happy we have them forever and it was so much fun getting to know each other. Keighla is your biggest photo hype girl when she’s behind the camera and she makes you feel so comfortable. She will keep your day on track and will be by your side from getting ready to dance floor and everything in between. When we got our photos back, we swooned over them! We still do to this day. She captures the best moments in the most beautiful way. Recommend Keighla’s Fresh Face Photos 100%!

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

Awarded Best of Zola

It felt like having a close friend capturing our day, not just a photographer. The photos are breathtakingly beautiful and so true to life— just authentic moments and natural colors that perfectly captured the feel of the day. Every time we look at them, it’s like reliving our wedding all over again. Eugene was a pro at blending in seamlessly—catching the little candid moments while still guiding us gently through the posed shots when needed. He made everything feel so effortless and fun! If you want stunning photos and a photographer who makes the entire process stress-free, we can’t recommend Eugene enough!

Mercy is amazing! She came to our home to take newborn photos, and didn’t rush us, and let me take time to feed our new baby in the middle of the session so he would calm down and be settled for pictures. She got us sneak peeks about a week later and the whole gallery a couple weeks after that! She was helpful suggesting different poses and working with the inspiration pics I had sent her before hand. She is also so sweet to be around and made us feel super comforting while taking pictures, I highly recommend Mercy !!
