Minnesota Professional Wedding Photographer- Design Studio by Stacy

Congratulations!!!

You're engaged!

Let's pop the champagne, update your social media status, adore

the new bling, set a date .... and plan a wedding!

I am so excited for you as you embark on this crazy journey and I am here to help! Having photographed over 140+ weddings, I have the experience to help make your day the best and your vision become your reality.

Hiring a professional photographer for your wedding and engagement is a big decision! I believe that you are not just hiring someone to snap a few pictures but rather you are hiring someone to document one of the most special days of your life. These pictures will live on for generations. Plus, your photographer will be a big part of your day and you want to make sure to choose someone that you are comfortable with and will help make it the best day!

We start your experience getting to know each other with your complimentary engagement session. This is a fun time with so many different things we can do! Where should we go?!?! Often, guys come into this with little excitement BUT we have a great time where the couple gets to canoodle and kiss and every once in a while smile for the camera. I also use this time to teach some basic "poses" that will help make your wedding day go so much more smoothly!

After the engagement photos are done, we will be in contact with questionnaires and e-mails that will really help me know EXACTLY what you want and what you imagine for your wedding day. As the wedding photographer, it is my job to help you create a wedding timeline that will allow for everything that you would like to capture on your wedding day. But I am very realistic with you and make sure you know what things could come up and I always have backup plans!!!

By the time that the wedding day arrives, I am always so excited because I get to watch my new friends get married and help make my clients dreams come true! I will capture you looking your best, with the best lighting and poses that flatter you! We will have a fun time capturing the wedding party and enjoying the day together. It is my job to help make your wedding day run smoothly, keep everyone on track, and make the most out of every situation. My wedding photography style is all about having fun and helping to create a stress-free, happy environment. I work hard to not miss any important moments and capture them the best way possible. I tend to be a notorious "over-shooter" so that when I am done you will be able to relive your wedding day years later.

The Wedding Experience

Client Love

"Stacy does such amazing work. We are so happy with the choice we made to have her capture our most special day. She takes so much pressure off of planning by creating a wedding day timeline, a list of shots to capture, and a list of things to not forget for the day of. She communicated well throughout the whole wedding process and always asked if she could do anything more. Her quality of work is beyond amazing, and she went above and beyond what was expected of her. We got our photos back so quickly, and have so many great options to choose from. BOOK HER, you won't regret it. "

I am not one of those photographers who just shares a few of their best photos. I want you to see what kinds of photos you should expect to get in all different kinds of venue and weather situations. Scroll to see examples and if you want more, check out the Weddings Continued tab in the menu.
