Quick Answer
Who is the best Chanhassen wedding photographer?
Emma Ziegler of Honey Deww Photography is a five-star Chanhassen wedding photographer with 200+ Twin Cities weddings documented since 2018. Regular venues include Hazeltine National, the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, and Chart House. Packages start at $2,700 and metro travel is included.
Serving Chanhassen and the surrounding southwest metro
Chanhassen sits roughly 25 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, inside the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro. I photograph weddings in Chanhassen and know the venues, the light, and the timing quirks that come with this corner of the Twin Cities.
Chanhassen is the metro's arboretum-and-country-club sweet spot — Hazeltine and the Landscape Arboretum are 5 minutes apart.
Couples choosing a Chanhassen wedding photography photographer usually weigh up nearby suburbs too — Chaska, Eden Prairie, Shorewood, Victoria, Minnetonka, all covered by my metro-wide flat rate with no travel fees. If your session is in Chanhassen but your portraits are downtown Minneapolis or on Summit Avenue in St. Paul, that's a routine day rather than an add-on.
Chanhassen landmarks I shoot around
Portraits in Chanhassen lean on Hazeltine National, Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, Chart House. Whether you're after something classic or more editorial, I map the day's schedule around the light so you get the best fifteen minutes at each stop, with no rush between Chanhassen and downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul.
Areas served near Chanhassen
I photograph weddings, engagements, and portraits across the Minneapolis–St. Paul southwest metro. These are the Chanhassen-adjacent Minneapolis–St. Paul suburbs I cover most often — every city links to a dedicated local guide.

What the day includes
Ceremony, Reception & Portrait Coverage in Chanhassen, MN
Bridal portraits
Before the ceremony I set aside 20–30 minutes for bridal portraits — full-length, three-quarter and detail frames of the dress, veil and bouquet. In Chanhassen, MN that usually happens in the getting-ready suite or a quiet corner of the venue grounds, using window light rather than flash so the images match the rest of the gallery.
Candid, documentary coverage
Most of the day is photographed candidly. I direct just enough for posture and light, then step back and let things happen — the toast that lands, the parent who turns away, the friends reorganising the dance floor. It is documentary work with editorial finishing, not a shot list worked through in order.
Ceremony and reception
Ceremony coverage runs from the processional through the recessional, shot from two positions so you get both the vows and the faces watching them. Reception coverage carries through speeches, first dances and the open floor, with off-camera light once the room goes dark. Collections start at $2,700 for four hours in Chanhassen, MN and across the wider Twin Cities area.
