Do you photograph weddings in Spring Park?
Yes. Spring Park sits roughly 30 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, inside the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro. I photograph weddings in Spring Park and know the venues, the light, and the timing quirks that come with this corner of the Twin Cities.
Spring Park is the boating heart of upper Lake Minnetonka — Lord Fletcher's, Al & Alma's charter cruises, and marina waterfront make it the metro's easiest place to put a wedding actually on the water.
Couples choosing a Spring Park wedding photographer usually weigh up nearby suburbs too — Mound, Orono, Minnetonka Beach, Navarre, Wayzata, all covered by my metro-wide flat rate with no travel fees. If your session is in Spring Park 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 Spring Park?
Portraits in Spring Park lean on the Spring Park Bay waterfront, Lord Fletcher's on the Lake, Al & Alma's charter docks, Thor Thompson Bay. 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 Spring Park and downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul.
Which cities near Spring Park do you cover?

What the day includes
What does wedding photography coverage include in Spring Park, MN?
Every Spring Park collection covers three parts of the day: bridal portraits before the ceremony, candid documentary coverage throughout, and the ceremony and reception into the evening. Collections start at $3,100 for four hours.
- Bridal portraits: 20–30 minutes before the ceremony, by window light, in the getting-ready suite or on the venue grounds.
- Candid, documentary coverage: most of the day, directed only for posture and light.
- Ceremony and reception: processional to recessional from two positions, then speeches, first dances and the open floor.
How each part is photographed is explained in my wedding photography style, and it is the same in Spring Park, MN as anywhere in the Twin Cities area.
Local details
What licences, permits and park rules apply in Spring Park?
Spring Park is one of Hennepin County's smallest cities, wrapped around a bay on Lake Minnetonka's west side, and its event permit names weddings outright.
- Does a Spring Park wedding need a special event permit?
- The city's special event form lists weddings among the events it covers. Under the 2026 fee schedule a single-event permit is $100, or $250 with live or amplified music, and an escrow of $250 or $500 applies when the event is on public property. Applications should arrive at least 45 days ahead. Source: City of Spring Park 2026 fee schedule
- What are the rules for music and alcohol at a Spring Park event?
- With live or amplified music, you must send written notice to every property owner within 350 feet at least 10 days before the event. If alcohol is served, the permit needs an alcohol security plan and a liability insurance certificate naming the city. Source: City of Spring Park special event application

What is it like to photograph a wedding in Spring Park?
Spring Park is tiny but it is the center of Lake Minnetonka's boating scene, and that makes it a genuinely distinctive wedding location. Al & Alma's runs charter cruises that double as floating receptions, Lord Fletcher's sits right on the water, and the marinas along Thor Thompson Bay give you working-dock backdrops you can't stage anywhere else in the metro.
Boat weddings need different technique. On a moving charter I shoot wider and faster, brace against the rail rather than trusting stabilization, and plan formal groupings for the dock before boarding rather than on deck. I also watch the wind forecast closely — a 15mph afternoon on Spring Park Bay changes what's possible, and I'd rather adjust the timeline in the morning than improvise at 6pm. Noerenberg Gardens in Orono is five minutes away and is my go-to backup for still-water portraits.
Which Spring Park venues and locations do you photograph?
