Your Story is
Worth Telling
Your wedding film & Photos will live beyond you
Think about that for a second. Your flowers will dry up, your decor will be donated or thrown away, no one will probably remember the food you had at your wedding 5 years from now, but your photos and video will live forever and carry your legacy along with them.
Have you ever sat down with your parents or grandparents and flipped through their wedding album or watched your parents’ wedding video? There is something so incredibly humbling and powerful about looking into your family’s past. Imagine sharing that same experience with your kids and grandkids someday. What a gift that will be.

What Steph + Nic Had to Say After Watching Their Wedding Teaser for the First time...
“Oh my goodness, Sarah. We just watched the video and cannot believe that that was our wedding, but at the same time it feels like it was exactly the wedding we’ve always dreamed of.
To see it from a different perspective than living it is like living it all over again. I have no words other than, we’re in tears. We had a shot of tequila with our shot ski. So amazing – we can’t thank you enough for capturing the day and capturing all these moments. We’re probably gonna watch this about 100 more times.
Thank you, Sarah.”
– Steph + Nic
Couples & Engagement
LOCAL Starting at $650
Not sure if you need an engagement session? Engagement sessions are great practice for the wedding day. Plus, you basically get to cuddle and have fun with your bestie the whole time, all while getting beautiful photos in the process! If I’m shooting your wedding, I always recommend my couples schedule an engagement session so we can get to know each other and get you comfortable in front of the camera before the big day!
Video engagement sessions are also a great way to document your story of how you met and are such a fun way of sharing your story with all of your family and friends – perfect for your wedding website. We’ll adventure around and get some beautiful cinematic footage of you two and you’ll have the option of writing and exchanging letters, or doing a more off-the-cuff, raw interview style session to capture the story of how you met to share with your future kiddos and grandkids one day.
Adventure Sessions
LOcAL Starting at $950
When we go out for an adventure session, it’s more than just a photoshoot—it’s an actual adventure! Sessions typically last 4-5 hours and involve hiking, exploring, getting out in nature, and some kind of fun adventure that the two of you would have even without the cameras around. Whether you’re hiking up a mountain, kayaking, or ATV-ing, I’m here to document who you are as a couple.
If that’s not your speed, but you still love the idea of the documenting a whole afternoon, maybe we spend a day hitting up your favorite breweries in the city, exploring a record store, or flipping pancakes in the comfort of your own home! More than anything, adventure sessions are meant to give us the time to do whatever speaks to you.

The Process
Chat with me
Fill out my contact form to set up a Discovery call with me, and we can chat all about your wedding plans to see if we’re a good fit. I’ll answer your questions and write up a custom quote based on your needs.
Booking your date
When you’re all ready to book, I’ll send over a contract and invoice plus create your custom client portal so we can keep everything in one place. All I need is a 30% retainer and a signed contract to hold your date.
Planning
After booking, you’ll get my exclusive wedding planning guide full of tips, tricks, vendor recs, and inspiration to help you along the way. We’ll keep in touch over the months to make sure everything’s in place before the big day!
I’m not just here to Shoot your Wedding….
I believe in loving people well. When you book with me, I will treat you with the same respect I treat my dearest friends. By the end of our time working together, I hope we feel like old friends. In fact, you’ll probably still be getting texts from me years later congratulating you on your first baby or wishing you a happy anniversary.
If you need help securing permits, finding an Airbnb, or coming up with unique ideas for your wedding day, I’m your gal. I want to serve you in any way I can, whether that’s pulling burrs out of your dress, handing you a beer, or fixing your makeup. I will be there for all of your most precious moments, serving you along the way.
I’m not here to take your money, shoot your wedding, and leave. I’m here to help you along the journey to make your dream wedding come to life and hopefully become the best of pals while doing so.
FAQ
To officially book your date, I ask for a 30% deposit and a signed contract to hold your wedding date. I book on a first come first serve basis and only take a limited amount of weddings a year, so if you’re ready to move forward, don’t wait!
Fill out the inquiry form and set up a discovery call with me and I’ll write up a custom proposal based on your needs. (Starting prices are listed on the Pricing page).
For wedding photos, it can take anywhere from 6-8 weeks. I also send out sneak peaks the same week of the wedding to hold you over!
Wedding Films: Because of my unique and intentional creative process, the process of creating a film can take me anywhere from 40-60 hours. Depending on the time of year, turnaround time can take anywhere from 4-6 months to ensure your film is not rushed.
Absolutely! I have shot many weddings and have planned my own, so I can help with figuring out your timeline, how much time it takes for photos, etc. Whether it be helping with timeline decisions or even if you can’t make up your mind about decor, I want to help! Also, if you need recommendations, I have a recommended list of my absolute favs that I send to my couples after booking!
YES! I’m based in Minneapolis, MN, but am always up for exploring new places.
Travel expenses are included in my custom packages so you won’t have to worry about any added travel fees after booking.
For copyright purposes, I license all of the music I use through MUSICBED – a music licensing platform for artists. Even Netflix, hulu, and ABC use it so know you’re in good hands when it comes to quality! Picking music is also a huge part of my creative process, as I don’t like to choose just any random love song. I was actually a musician FIRST before I was a filmmaker and I have a strong passion for music and storytelling! I can sometimes spend even a whole day just choosing the music for a film! So know that your music is selected with care and love. I spend a lot of time with you at your wedding, and I can usually get a really good idea of the whole overall feel of the day. I use that emotion from your wedding day to help me in choosing your music!
YES! I have had the privilege of getting to know so many wedding professionals from previous weddings and other shoots! I only recommend those I truly LOVE, so you get the best quality experience. Once you book you’ll get access to my wedding guide which includes a list of all of my favorite vendors!
Yes! I’m super flexible when it comes to payment plans. I usually split up your total between 3-4 payments, but don’t be afraid to ask me if you need something different and we can work something out.
Yes! I always highly recommend you see at least one full gallery from your photographer before booking them to get a full picture of what your photos could look like in different lighting scenarios. Here’s a link to some fully galleries to view: Engagement Session, Fall Wedding, Summer Wedding
Get in touch with me on my contact page and we will set up a phone call where we can nail down your vision and I’ll help you figure out how much coverage you might need.
Most traditional weddings need 9-10 hrs of coverage and elopements I typically recommend at least 8 hrs.
Absolutely! I love researching and helping my couples find a location that suits them! Let’s hop on the phone so I can hear all about your vision and help you find a few locations tailored to your specific vision.
Yep! On the wedding day I shoot video and one of my photo associates from my team will take photos and I edit them.
It’s a great way of getting consistent style in both photo and video. Plus, having a photographer and videographer who get along will eliminate a lot of stress on your wedding day and overall get you better photos/video.
DISCOUNTED RATES – I offer 10% off when booking both photo + video together!
