Frequently Asked Questions
Do you shoot Minnesota elopements?
Yes — elopements are some of my favorite weddings to shoot. I've documented elopements at Gooseberry Falls, Split Rock Lighthouse, Tettegouche, Palisade Head, the Boundary Waters, and downtown Minneapolis courthouse ceremonies. Two-hour to full-day elopement coverage available.
How much is a Minnesota elopement photographer?
Elopement collections start at $1,800 for 3 hours (courthouse + dinner coverage), $2,800 for half-day adventure coverage, and $4,200 for full-day North Shore or Boundary Waters elopements with travel and a sunrise/sunset window.
Best Minnesota elopement locations?
North Shore favorites — Gooseberry Falls, Split Rock Lighthouse, Tettegouche State Park, Palisade Head, Cascade River. Twin Cities favorites — Minnehaha Falls, Stone Arch Bridge, Theodore Wirth Park. Off-the-beaten-path — Boundary Waters Canoe Area, Itasca State Park, and Banning State Park.
Do you help plan the elopement timeline?
Yes — every elopement package includes a planning call where we map out ceremony time, sunrise/sunset windows, hike-in time, vendor recommendations (officiant, florist, hair/makeup, lodging), and rain backups. You hire me, you get a planner too.
Will you travel anywhere in Minnesota?
Yes — the entire state. North Shore, Boundary Waters, Duluth, Brainerd Lakes, Bemidji, and southern MN bluff country. Travel is included on the half-day and full-day collections; a flat travel add-on covers anywhere outside the Twin Cities metro for the 3-hour collection.
