Do you photograph weddings, portraits and families in Richfield?
Yes. Richfield sits in the south metro of the Minneapolis–St. Paul area. I photograph weddings, portraits and families in Richfield and plan each day around the venue, the light and the timing that come with this corner of the Twin Cities.
Richfield is a first-ring suburb between Minneapolis and Bloomington, where Wood Lake Nature Center's marsh boardwalks suit portraits and a city Green Space Permit allows small ceremonies of up to 30 on open space in a Richfield park.
Clients choosing a Richfield photographer can book the nearby suburbs on the same terms — Minneapolis, Edina, Bloomington, Fort Snelling, with travel included within 40 miles of downtown Minneapolis. If your session is in Richfield but your portraits are downtown Minneapolis or on Summit Avenue in St. Paul, that's a routine day rather than an add-on.
Where do you take portraits in Richfield?
Local places to plan a Richfield day around include Wood Lake Nature Center, Veterans Memorial Park, Augsburg Park, Bartholomew House Museum and Richfield History Center. 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 Richfield and downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul.

What licenses, permits and park rules apply in Richfield?
Richfield couples get their marriage license from Hennepin County, city permits govern small ceremonies in Richfield parks, and Wood Lake Nature Center is unavailable to rent while its new main building is under construction.
- Can you apply for a Hennepin County marriage license without both of you at the counter?
- Hennepin County lets both of you apply in person at a service center, or one of you in person, as long as the absent person's signature is notarized and you bring a copy of a document proving their age. There is also a remote option: mail the completed application, notarized supplemental forms and a check or money order to the Director of Licensing – Remote Marriage at the Hennepin County Government Center. The fee is $125, or $50 with 12 hours of premarital education, and fees are non-refundable. Source: Hennepin County — Marriage license
- Do you need a permit for a small ceremony in a Richfield park?
