For those who believe connection is worth celebrating.
Minneapolis Wedding Photographer
Mpls | minn + costa rica +Worldwide
You want your day to be so much more than beautiful photographs.
You want to be celebrating with your favorite people, fully present in the moments you've spent months dreaming up, and creating memories you'll carry with you for the rest of your life.
The laughter during dinner. Holding hands throgh the heartfelt speeches. The hugs that last a little longer. The friends you haven't seen in years.
The quiet moments in between and the surprises you never saw coming.
My job is to make sure you have space for all of it.
I'll guide you when you need it, step back when you don't, and create photographs that feel natural, honest, and true to your experience.
Rooted in Connection
For couples who care more about connection than perfection.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Laura! She captured all the raw moments of our day so perfectly..

What minneapolis wedding couples say
All of the photos reflect the love.
Laura went above and beyond to capture our wedding day. We had a few special requests, like some photos with our dog and photos of each table, and she took these in stride. We wanted the focus of the photography to be on our families, since we are rarely in one place at one time, and I feel like she succeeded in this 100% - all of the photos reflect the love and importance of family togetherness.
GINNY & CODy
IMPRESSED BY HER CREATIVITY AND STORYTELLING
Laura was great and was truly invested in our whole story. We were so happy with our photos. they really captured us. We were continually impressed by her creativity and visual storytelling, her plans, and her preparedness.

Super creative and fun
Laura was so wonderful as the photographer for our wedding. She made us both feel so comfortable and made everything feel as natural as possible. Laura is super creative and fun to be around. She made my wedding day better and hiring her was the best decision I made for my wedding day - besides saying I do to my groom!

'He says it was love at first sight. I just remember thinking he was cute but I was also mostly very sleepy...'

When a study-abroad trip to Costa Rica leads to love and creating a family...
hola, I am Laura.
Hola, I am Laura.
Hola! I'm Laura, a Minneapolis wedding photographer documenting the people you love most and the moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours.
For over a decade, I've had the privilege of photographing weddings across Minnesota and beyond. Along the way, I've learned that the best photographs happen when people feel comfortable enough to be themselves.
You'll have natural portraits that feel like you, family photographs you'll treasure for generations, and the freedom to enjoy the people and moments that matter most.
I'll guide you when you need it, step back when you don't, and help create an experience that feels easy, relaxed, and true to your day.
The result is a collection of photographs that feels less like a gallery and more like a time capsule of one of the most meaningful days of your life.
I'm here to help you remember all of it.
