Owner & lead photographer of Honey Deww Photography — a Minneapolis wedding photographer who also shoots portrait, boudoir, and newborn sessions across the Twin Cities and Minnesota. The studio has been booking since 2018.

Minneapolis, MN Booking since 2018 200+ weddings

Hi — I'm Emma, a Minneapolis wedding photographer who founded and leads Honey Deww Photography, which has been booking since 2018. I photograph weddings, engagements, boudoir, maternity, newborns, and families across Minneapolis and the Twin Cities. I lead every wedding, including the two-photographer collections, and every email and edit comes from me, which means you get the same person from your first inquiry through your final gallery. See my wedding photography collections.

My background is in editorial-documentary photography. I lean into real moments — the way a partner laughs mid-vow, the quiet second before a first look, the calm of a sleeping newborn — and edit every frame by hand in a warm, true-to-life color palette. No AI presets, no overcooked filters, no trendy looks that won't age well. Just photography that still feels like you in twenty years.

I serve all of Minneapolis, St. Paul, the entire Twin Cities metro, and I regularly travel throughout Minnesota (the North Shore, Brainerd Lakes, Stillwater, Duluth) and western Wisconsin. Destination weddings are welcome too. Recent work is in the portfolio and the wedding highlight reels, and what past clients say is on the reviews page; writers and planners can find the press kit too. If you want to chat about your day, head to my contact page or text/call me at (651) 829-5756.
