Serving Somerset, WI and the surrounding St. Croix Valley
Somerset, WI sits roughly 40 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, inside the St. Croix Valley on the metro's eastern edge. I photograph weddings, portraits and families in Somerset, WI and know the venues, the light, and the timing quirks that come with the St. Croix Valley area.
Somerset's Apple River backdrop and barn venues make it the go-to when Twin Cities couples want a 40-minute 'destination' feel.
Clients choosing a Somerset, WI photographer usually weigh up neighbouring towns too — Hudson (WI), New Richmond (WI), Stillwater (MN), and I travel to all of them. Travel beyond the metro is quoted up front, so the number you see when you book is the number you pay.
Somerset, WI landmarks I shoot around
Portraits in Somerset, WI lean on The Barn at Stoney Hills, River's Edge Golf Course, the Apple River, Village 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 — and with the drive built into the timeline rather than bolted on.

Licences, permits and park rules in Somerset, WI
Somerset sits right on the St. Croix, which makes it easy to end up with a licence from the wrong state. The ceremony location decides which one you need.
- How do you get a marriage licence for a Somerset wedding?
- Apply in person at any Wisconsin county clerk's office. St. Croix County charges $100, cash or check only. There is a 3-day waiting period, so apply at least four days and no more than 60 days before the wedding; the licence is valid for 60 days. Source: St. Croix County marriage licence information
- Can a Wisconsin licence be used for a ceremony in Minnesota?
- No. A Wisconsin licence covers a ceremony performed in Wisconsin only. If the ceremony itself is across the river in Minnesota, you need a Minnesota licence instead. Source: St. Croix County marriage licence information
