Quick Answer

Who is the best Maplewood wedding photographer?

Honey Deww Photography's Emma Ziegler is a five-star Maplewood wedding photographer. Over 200 Twin Cities weddings since 2018 and regular coverage at Keller Golf Course, Bruentrup Heritage Farm, and Maplewood Community Center. Collections from $3,100 — no metro travel fees.

Do you photograph weddings in Maplewood?

Yes. Maplewood sits roughly 15 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, inside the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro. I photograph weddings in Maplewood and know the venues, the light, and the timing quirks that come with this corner of the Twin Cities.

Maplewood shares a border with St. Paul and Lake Phalen — couples get east-metro pricing with downtown-adjacent portrait spots.

Couples choosing a Maplewood wedding photographer usually weigh up nearby suburbs too — St. Paul, Oakdale, North St. Paul, White Bear Lake, Little Canada, with travel included within 40 miles of downtown Minneapolis. If your session is in Maplewood 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 Maplewood?

Portraits in Maplewood lean on Keller Golf Course, Bruentrup Heritage Farm, Battle Creek Regional Park, Lake Phalen. 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 Maplewood and downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul.

Which cities near Maplewood do you cover?

I photograph weddings, engagements, and portraits across the Minneapolis–St. Paul east metro. These are the Maplewood-adjacent Minneapolis–St. Paul suburbs I cover most often — every city links to a dedicated local guide.

Also serving the wider Twin Cities metro — view all Minneapolis–St. Paul locations.
