“Christa is absolutely wonderful to work with. She’s kind, professional and extremely reliable. She kept us updated through the process. Highly recommended!”
Feeling comfortable in your wedding portraits is important. You need guidance and support so you can relax and be yourself. I’m here to help with that.
I also want to photograph you in the moment savoring the romance of your relationship and all of the amazing, beautiful feelings you feel getting married.
Before your wedding we’ll be communicating, because you’ll need timely responses to questions and help with details like your timeline or plans for wrangling your relatives.
On your wedding day you want the in between moments captured too. The candid things that happen without planning. It might rain, or snow, your hair and make up might run late, and I’ll be there to support you with solutions that get you amazing pictures.
1. Send a me message and I'll send you my wedding guide with information on package options.
2. We'll have a conversation about who you are together as a couple and how you envision your wedding day.
3. You'll get answers to all your questions and guidance on which photography options make the most sense for your wedding.
When should we book you for our wedding? As soon as you know you’re ready because dates are booked when they’re booked, and sometimes they’re booked fast.
What do we need to book our date? Your retainer, which is a non-refundable 25% of your wedding package. Plus a signed online wedding contract.
What if we need to reschedule our wedding due to the pandemic? I have a flexible rescheduling policy that will make it easy for you.
“I cannot put into words how thankful I am that Christa was our photographer for our wedding. She made everything smooth sailing- from helping us plan the time of events the day of, to getting our pictures done in time for the ceremony, to getting us beautifully edited photos. 100% would recommend her services!!” -Ashley

That's okay. I find most couples don't have their schedule figured out right away. I'll help you figure out how much coverage you need based on experience, and we can always adjust your coverage before the wedding day if we need to.
Yes. Full day wedding packages come with an engagement shoot, so if you want engagement pictures we'll do them.
A lot of couples I photograph feel this way. My goal is to give you confidence and capture the way you naturally are together. I'm here to guide you through your engagement pictures. The style of posing I use allows you to focus on each other instead of always looking at the camera.
In Belle Plaine, Minnesota which is halfway between Minneapolis and Mankato. I enjoy being in a small town with the ability to travel to most major cities in Central and Southern Minnesota.
Yes. Travel within about 2 hours of Belle Plaine, MN is included for weddings. This covers the Twin Cities, St. Cloud, Mankato, Stillwater, and Rochester areas. If you need more travel, let's talk about it.
I started my photography career in 2008 at a studio. In 2012 I outgrew my studio position and decided to opened my own business so I could shoot more weddings. I've done over 100 weddings and have over a decade of experience as a working professional photographer.
I'm always excited to travel somewhere new and bring a fresh perspective to your venue. I can do a tour with you, so I'm familiar with venue spaces and lighting conditions before your wedding day. I also do a lot of research on your venue to plan for your wedding.
My goal is to deliver pictures that feel complete in telling your wedding story.
The final number of pictures you receive depends on how long I’m shooting and what events happen during the wedding. Generally you can expect to receive at least 500-600 pictures from an 8 hour wedding with two photographers.
Yes. I want the colors and light in your pictures to be natural and beautiful. Natural skin softening is done if you need it. However, I don’t do things like give you a tan, cover tattoos, erase every wrinkle on your face, or drastically modify your body.
My turnaround time varies by season. Typically, you’ll be able to view your photos online about 6-8 weeks after your wedding. I know you'll be waiting and wondering how your wedding pictures turned out, so I'll also post a little preview to social media a few days after your wedding, and provide you with a high resolution version of the preview too.
For engagements and other shoots editing time is 3 weeks.
Yes! Please do. You get printing rights. You can download your files and use your preferred printer. You also get access to my professional lab with your gallery.
Yes! You're welcome to share them on your social media accounts.
Yes. I have liability insurance for this reason.
I can build a personal package for you to make sure you get the printed items you need (like albums), and the coverage you need for multiple days of celebration.
