Serving Burnsville and the surrounding south metro

Burnsville sits roughly 20 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, inside the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro. I photograph weddings, portraits and families in Burnsville and know the venues, the light, and the timing quirks that come with this corner of the Twin Cities.

Burnsville sits at the crossroads of I-35 and Highway 13 — I can bounce between a Buck Hill ceremony, Crystal Lake reception, and river-bluff portraits in a single day.

Clients choosing a Burnsville photographer usually weigh up nearby suburbs too — Eagan, Bloomington, Savage, Apple Valley, Lakeville, all covered by my metro-wide flat rate with no travel fees. If your session is in Burnsville but your portraits are downtown Minneapolis or on Summit Avenue in St. Paul, that's a routine day rather than an add-on.

Burnsville landmarks I shoot around

Portraits in Burnsville lean on Buck Hill, Crystal Lake Golf Club, Ames Center, Cliff Fen Park. 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 Burnsville and downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul.
