INITIMATE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER FOR THE RULE BREAKERS,
THE ADVENTURE CHASERS, AND THE WILDLY IN LOVE.
ABOUT US
I’m a Minneapolis wedding photographer, and this will be fun!
Documenting moments is my story. All of the natural and candid images should feel familiar and comfortable when you look through them. I want you to relive the amazing day that you had.
I also seek out unexpected images – making extraordinary images is my specialty. Let’s create images that are bold and full of emotion and space!
But Woubee’s, images speak for themselves! Why bother writing all this? Because what you can’t see directly is the special sauce that sets me apart as a photographer. It is the core of what’s made me a successful wedding photographer, making clients happy for so many years.
My special sauce is this:
I care about making your wedding day awesome. Not just your photos, but your whole day. Making the photography comfortable, effortless, and fun. I’ll handle the photo stuff so you can be fully-present for your wedding.
Trust is the foundation of any great relationship – for us, it enables me to capture the raw emotions, quiet connections, hilarious interactions, and bold imagery that I’m known for.
Let’s cut to the chase – everyone has a budget and I respect that you have one, too. I always try to keep my pricing straightforward and simple because lots of things about planning a wedding are anything but simple!
My approach to pricing is simple: I should understand it, and you should, too. That means I try to keep things simple, flexible, and client-centered.
Couples who work with me have many different priorities around their budget. Some would like a few hours of coverage, or a whole day, or albums for all parents, or no engagement session, or some combo! I tailor the photography package to each couple and their wedding journey.
ALWAYS INCLUDED
– Online gallery of your special day
– High resolution files of your wedding images on CD/Flash after final payment
– Guidance about planning your logistics, wrangling relatives, and feeling great in your photos.
FAQ
I’m a documentary storyteller – showing happy and natural images of the two of you, fun and comfortable images with your wedding party and family, joyful candid images, and timeless documentation of day, all with an eye towards bringing the environment (be it a moody warehouse, a snowy prairie, or cabin in the woods) into the images. I’m also know for my “camp counselor” voice – making family formal portraits happen quickly and beautifully.
You’ve read all the way to this part of my page, so photography is clearly important to you! Booking your photographer is something you’ll want to do as soon as you have your wedding date confirmed. Most out-of-towners book within a few days of getting in touch
To hold your date, you’ll need to finish a contract (online) and return the deposit (typically 50% of your agreed price). The balance is due on the day of the wedding Album has been dilvered. If you are ready to book, just get in touch so I can send you the paperwork.
Look, you may not have many professional photos taken of yourself. That makes engagement sessions are totally a fun time to get used to being in front of the camera, getting to know each other, and make use of locations or weather that would be difficult on your wedding day.
That said, you totally might not want or need engagement photos, and that is cool, too. Either way, the photos I take on your wedding day will be a singular amazing experience and I’ll make sure you look comfortable and at your best.
Engagement photos are about all the other days you spend together.
Yes. One of the most important parts of wedding photography is having a lot of tools available no matter how the day unfolds. Some of those tools are managing people, anticipating moments, and general good cheer. Some tools are tangible (like lighting, and lenses, and composition techniques). Sometimes I have to dig deep into my bag of tools and sometimes I don’t, but I’m ready with ideas no matter if your wedding is on a yacht, in a cave, or in a snowstorm.
You are doing a lot of planning to get the vibe of your wedding just right, and that is what I want to capture – the feeling of being there, the emotions, the laughter. I also take photos of the pretty details, but mostly of the people you’ve invited to share with you. The number of wedding images can vary depending all those things, but typically a full wedding is over 1000 – 2500 final images.
The hilarious thing about planning your wedding is that it is totally unique to you and your people and your vision, so you probably won’t totally know the number of hours until you get closer to finalizing all that stuff. I will totally work with you to hone your timeline and make sure that the events and people you want captured are on target. Typically, weddings benefit from full day of coverage.
The majority of what I do is to document the day that you plan and capture the story of your wedding day and the people there. That said, I take immense effort at each wedding I photograph to make sure that the family groupings are beautiful, happy, and efficient. It’s kind of a big deal to get married, so let yourself feel it. Taking family photos should be a PART of your wedding, so enjoy being with the people that mean so much to you, and let me worry about getting you all into place. I come from a big family and I know that family photos require a plan, so I’ll send you some info about putting together a list, and some ideas for navigating family.
