Welcome

This is where real life and true love meet a beautiful backdrop, whether here in Minnesota or off on a far-away Adventure in the mountains. Our goal is to capture the moments and emotions that represent your unique personalities and the connection that binds you. Yes, Every picture has a story, but only some tell a beautiful story you wish you could relive again and again. When looking at your photos, you should feel the same joy and love you felt when the images were created.

the name

XSPERIENCE

I know what you're thinking...doesn't she know how to spell? You're actually looking at a 3rd grade spelling bee contender lol, so yes. The name represents two people coming together (x) and my last name spencer, mixed up of course. Most importantly I knew i wanted my business to focus on the experience as much as the images created.

LGBTQ+ friendly

Love is Love. And it is beautiful in all shapes, sizes, & color. We are genuinely honored to capture your love story, and not only respect your uniqueness and all it's beauty, but embrace it.

AUTHENTICITY: def

you are true to your own personality, values and spirit, regardless of the pressure you're under to act otherwise

captured the magic

I seriously do not have the words to describe how amazing Trisha was throughout the entire experience. She was so good with the kids and with all the guests. She is so humble, and Oh my God, the pictures are something from a magazine. She is professional and just perfect at what she does. No one could have captured the magic of my special night like Xsperience photography!

picture perfect day

Trisha planned our picture perfect wedding. With Covid making it difficult, the idea of eloping sounded like a great idea. We had a blast on our road trip to Idaho, and Trisha picked the perfect location with an amazing mountain view and lake. Being able to exchange vows in such picturesque views and our son present, made it the most special day. And then to end the night skipping rocks as a family...sooo fun!!

she brings sunshine

Trisha captured my daughter and new son-in-law’s destination engagement photo shoot in California AND wedding at The Atrium in Wisconsin. She is amazing. The photos were beautiful. But, more than that, Trisha is a joy to be around. She brings sunshine to the day, is professional, friendly and very smooth. Capturing spontaneous moments as well as formal pictures. She works very hard and somehow makes it look effortless. She truly enjoys her craft- and it shows through in the photos!

Why elope?

After photographing over 400 traditional Minnesota weddings, I learned that most are quite stressful. incredibly expensive, and the bride and groom have very few precious moments together. Sadly many times I arrived and said, "How excited are you guys?!"...and heard, "honestly, I can't wait for this day to be over".

So why elope or have a small wedding?

It's authentic and true to you.

Those closest to your hearts can still join in on the fun.

Photographic moments naturally occur without a forced shot-list needed.

Evening light, scenery and genuine feelings of joy = pure magic!

Your wedding can also serve as a honeymoon.

You start your marriage feeling more connected than ever.

how we feel about photoshop and overly retouched photos

Every photographer is an artist at heart and thrives in different settings. Our number one goal is to ensure everyone is happy in the end so being up-front and honest is our way to make sure we are a good fit. After all, this is bound to be one of your most memorable days.

We believe it is our job to Document your special day as beautiful as "it" is and "you" truly are, therefore we edit true to life with a hint of dreaminess. real may not always be "perfect", but it's real, and That is what we value.

Get to know us more....

Let's face it...you spend as much, or more, time with your photographer than anyone else on your wedding day. Definitely invest time in getting to know them and their style. You don't get to re-do it!! Well...I guess you could do a vow renewal which we LOVE by the way!!!!!
