Serving Hudson, WI and the surrounding St. Croix Valley
Hudson, WI sits in the St. Croix Valley — roughly 30 minutes from downtown Minneapolis and inside the St. Croix Valley (Minneapolis–St. Paul metro's eastern edge). I photograph weddings across Hudson, WI weekly and know the venues, the light, and the timing quirks unique to this corner of the Twin Cities.
Hudson is Twin Cities-adjacent (30 min from downtown Minneapolis) with Wisconsin licensing perks — Willow River State Park's waterfalls are unmatched for portraits.
Couples choosing a Hudson, WI wedding photographer usually also compare nearby suburbs — I regularly shoot in Stillwater (MN), River Falls (WI), New Richmond (WI), Somerset (WI), all covered by my metro-wide flat rate with no travel fees. If your ceremony is in Hudson, WI but your portraits are downtown Minneapolis or on Summit Avenue in St. Paul, that's a routine day for me, not an add-on.
Hudson, WI landmarks I shoot around
Portraits in Hudson, WI lean on The Phipps Inn, Willow River State Park, Hudson House Grand Hotel, Troy Burne Golf Club. Whether you're aiming for a classic St. Croix Valley country-club look or something more editorial, I map out the day's schedule so you get the best 15 minutes of light at each stop — no rushing between Hudson, WI and downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul.
