About us

We are a husband and wife team currently based out of Minneapolis, MN. We love fun adventures, traveling to new places, meeting people and learning about their unique experiences, which is a big part of why we love photography!

Erica & Neil met at Whitewater State Park while Erica was on a camping trip with her family, and Neil had a summer internship at Whitewater. So yes, Neil met and spent time with Erica's entire family the weekend they met each other! It was a bit embarrassing for a recent college grad girl! Their first date after that weekend was at a place called the Wow Zone where Erica beat Neil pretty badly in bowling and laser tag, and then Neil returned the favor playing mini-golf! That fall, they made a few trips back to Whitewater and fell in love among the beautiful bluffs, trails, and scenery. About a year later, Neil proposed at Whitewater on a camping trip and they could only think of one gorgeous place to get to married - Whitewater State Park!

Photography has always been a love of mine, and one of my favorite parts of photographing people is capturing true emotions and feelings. I love it when clients can look at a picture from 10 years ago, and still feel the same emotions from that day through the photograph!
