Destination Wedding at Bluebelle Venue | Bemidji, MN

Becca and Chris headed north to Bemidji, Minnesota, where they hosted an intimate destination wedding at The Bluebelle Event Venue. The outdoor ceremony space tucked away in the trees was the main highlight when they toured the wedding venue, but unfortunately the rainy weather pushed them indoors. Surprisingly, the indoor space was equally as incredible....

Minnesota Wedding at Crooked Willow | Abby + Logan

This blog features a gorgeous Central Minnesota wedding at Crooked Willow. Crooked Willow is a renovated farmstead turned into a premier wedding venue in Osakis. Abby and Logan embraced the rainy day and enjoyed outdoor photos with umbrellas in hand. But also took advantage of the fun indoor scenery Crooked Willow provides. They started their...

Church Blessing + Wedding Celebration | Wayzata, MN

Casi and Nathan eloped in January, but wanted to complete the wedding with a blessing in the Catholic Church/School that Casi works at in Wayzata. They began their morning at Hotel Landing with their small wedding party and immediate family members. We snapped a few portraits across the street before hopping in a Limo to...

Minnesota Micro-Wedding | Jay Cooke State Park & Juliane James Place

Bethany and Ryan decided an adventurous Micro Wedding in northern Minnesota was the perfect fit for them. They both love Jay Cooke State Park so they found an adorable cabin nearby, Juliane James Place. It is tucked away in the woods in the countryside of Finlayson and suitable to host micro-weddings. I would love to...

Destination Wedding | Barcelo Maya Palace, Mexico

Holly and Tom’s destination wedding at Barcelo Maya Palace in Riviera Maya, Mexico was one for the books! They kept it intimate with just 28 of their closest friends and family members. Even though it was small, this group knew how to party! The day started off with a relaxing morning at the spa, followed...

December Wedding at a Northern California Vineyard

Jordan and Shanigne hosted an intimate wedding celebration at Tenbrink Orchards December 14, 2024. They truly were more excited about the marriage than “the big wedding” so they kept it small and family-focused. Everyone who attended meant a great deal to them and it showed. A DESTINATION WEDDING AT TENBRINK ORCHARDS Jordan’s mom Vanessa and...

A beautiful Fall Wedding at Stonewall Farms | Willmar, Mn

Melissa and Michael hosted the most intimate and beautiful Fall wedding at Stonewall Farms in Willmar, Minnesota. There wasn’t a set of dry eyes as they exchanged the most heartfelt vows ever heard in the 22 years of me documenting weddings. This particular wedding story is one of hardship, loss, and second chance love. It...

Small Destination Wedding at Olema House | Point Reyes, Ca

Point Reyes National Seashore is one of my favorite locations for coastal elopements and destination engagement sessions. It has rolling hills, a rugged coastline, beautiful beaches and wild animals living in their element. Ever since the first time I visited, I dreamt of documenting a small destination wedding at the Olema House. So when Frank...

Central Minnesota Wedding | Kayla & Braxton

Kayla and Braxton hosted a Central Minnesota Wedding so that all their friends and family could join in on the fun. They began the day getting ready at a family member’s home in Rice, Minnesota before heading a couple miles down the road to their Church. Following the ceremony the wedding party hopped on a...

Pierz Minnesota Wedding | Documentary Style Photography

After photographing weddings for 22 years, both traditional Minnesota weddings and intimate destination elopements, I realized my strength is interacting with people, making them feel comfortable, and helping them look their best through subtle but confident posing guidance, but honestly… my passion lies in documentary style photography. Where little to no posing is used. It’s...
