Hey there! I'm Eric, an outdoor-loving, laid-back wedding photographer based in the Midwest who lives for capturing those real, unfiltered moments that make each love story unique. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll probably find me hiking trails or discovering new local breweries. My approach blends documentary-style storytelling with a touch of editorial flair—meaning I'll capture both those candid laughs during toasts and those naturally romantic moments during golden hour. The best photos happen when couples feel completely at ease and free to be themselves.

Tracy & Kyle are fantastic artists and teammates! They made our wedding experience such a fun journey every step of the way and we were blown away by how fantastic all of our photos turned out in both our engagement and wedding day photos. We met with them in-person twice for consultations and felt so comfortable talking with them and sharing our experiences as fellow wedding-industry workers. The rate at which we received our photos after our engagement shoot and our wedding was perfect! They sent a few samples that showed the quality and attention to detail, and the remaining complete albums were sent within a week! So fast but so much attention to detail and great editing. We also loved their blog posts as a way to share photos with friends and family and we enjoyed browsing other couples' albums as well! As a same-sex mixed race couple, we really appreciated their wide portfolio of diverse couples of LGBTQIA and BIPOC clients.

Is simple really. I want to capture real moments and create beautiful portraits for you. Portraits that you will enjoy looking at long after your wedding. I believe that wedding photography doesn't have to be boring. I don't want to just give you pictures. I want to create works of art that you will be proud to hang in your home. Building friendships & relationships are another goal of mine as well. If I have created a story documenting your day, we had some fun doing it, and your friends all say your wedding photographer was amazing then I accomplished my goal.

From the very first time that I worked with Nicole, we've developed a relationship that goes beyond simply being colleagues in the wedding industry. Nicole is personable, friendly, dedicated and she clearly LOVES what she does. I've had the opportunity to work alongside her at a few wedding receptions; she and I have also traded referrals for events as well. I am a BIG fan of her work; the turnaround is VERY fast, in my experience. I have been so impressed that I also became a client, hiring her to do a photo shoot of my children for a surprise birthday gift for my wife. In my humble opinion, you can't go wrong with Nicole and Little Mac Design.

Hey there, I'm Brianna! I am an film lovin', free-spirited, traveling photographer. I'm based out of Minnesota and available for wherever your love takes us. I'm all about documenting love stories in a creative, documentary style that captures all the real stuff—candid moments, quirky expressions of love, and genuine personalities. My style comes from a balanced blend of documentary and editorial influences.

Brianna is beyond anything we could have imagined from our wedding photographer! We were very picky when we set out to look for wedding photographers - we wanted our photos to feel authentic and genuine to our personalities and we wanted a photographer who matched our overall wedding vibes. Brianna far exceeded our (very high) expectations. Brianna perfectly captured the beauty of every moment of our day. Plus, the super 8 film is stunning! It is amazing the emotion that Brianna captures in her work. And, as if it couldn't get any better, we felt such a genuine connection to Brianna. She was incredibly affirming to both me and my partner. I simply cannot imagine a better experience than the one we got with Brianna. If you are looking for a photographer who is responsive to your requests, a true artist, and affirming of queer love then look no further because Brianna is a perfect fit! - Annie Olson

I'm a Minnesota-Based Wedding and Boudoir Photographer and believe in documenting the moments that matter most to you. Most days you can find me hanging with my three boys in yoga pants and my favorite baseball hat. And, of course, sipping my creamer with a slash of coffee. I’m not a girly girl, I don’t do the color pink, and can’t braid for the life of me - hence why God blessed me with boys. It’s those boys who are the heart behind my business.

Christina Naselli was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication style was clear, kind, flexible, fun and respectful throughout the entire planning process, which made her a pleasure to collaborate with. Christina created a thoughtful wedding day timeline for me and was happy to modify it based on my feedback to ensure we were aligned. She also provided incredibly helpful tips and advice and assisted with coordinating my wedding party. On the actual wedding day, Christina kept me calm with her upbeat energy. And most importantly, the quality of her work is stunning - the photos perfectly captured all the special moments of our wedding and we could not be happier. I cannot recommend Christina highly enough!

I own a wedding venue and we do over 80 weddings per year. We see a lot of photographers each year and it is clear that there are people who own expensive cameras and then there are photographers. A true photographer has an eye for the right light at the right angle at the right exposure at the right focus at the right distance. Michelle is one of the true photographers. She does great work with a creative eye for detail. To top it off she is great to work with. Pleasant and professional with none of the arrogance. If you can get on her calendar, do it.
