Eric Turner Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN
  • Offer

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.

I’m someone who usually avoids being in photos and never let anyone, not even my partner, take pictures of me. But working with Eric completely changed that. Quinn and I were blown away by our photos. The entire experience felt effortless, like hanging out with a friend. Eric is incredibly laid-back and easygoing, which made the session so enjoyable. If you’re camera-shy or nervous about having your photo taken, I can’t recommend Eric enough. You won’t regret it.

Valerie was amazing to work with! She photographed our wedding and was so kind and detail oriented. The photos came out great, and she was more than happy to adjust some of the editing for us when we asked! We even purchased the package that included scrapbooks and we procrastinated following up with it, but over a year later she was still eager to make them for us and hand delivered them to our door with the sweetest note and goodies. Anybody would be lucky to work with her!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about our photographer/videographer from sound originals. Our photographer was on it. She paid attention to details, she hyped us all up and never made us feel awkward, communication was excellent, she even helped me put my veil on. Above all else the photographs she captured exceeded every expectation I had. I am the kind of person to take a million pictures of myself and hate them all, but I looked beautiful in every picture. My confidence after seeing those pictures has skyrocketed. She was a true gem of a human, the sidekick every bride needs. She knew when I had enough of posing for photos and wanted to get back to the party, and she never made us feel bad about it at all. I wish for every bride to have an amazing team behind them and just know if you choose to go with sound originals, you will.

Bellagala Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN

Your photographer will be one of the most important vendors you select, period. The photographers that Bellagala has hand-selected all have a photojournalistic base but have also developed their own sense of style, and a skill set that is unique to each of them through years of shooting weddings. Each of our wedding photographers, even at the Apprentice level, are subject to a thorough evaluation process before being invited to join the Bellagala team, and we ensure they have a solid record of client service and a strong creative portfolio. We promise you will love their work.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked Andrew Parfenov through Bellagala as our wedding photographer and couldn't be happier. We were looking for a photographer with a strong visual voice and a good mix of non-traditional/dramatic portraits and photojournalistic (candid) photos in their portfolio. Andrew brought the drama, the joy, and so much more! From the get-go, Andrew was a delight to work with - he shot our engagement photos and helped us find and arrange a venue for them - and immediately set us at ease. He goes above and beyond to get the perfect shot, the perfect lighting, the perfect pose. On our wedding day, Andrew took the lead on finding locations for photos around our venue, posing us/our bridal party/our family, and finding moments for candid shots at the reception. Multiple family members have reached out after the wedding to tell us how much they enjoyed Andrew's approach and how at ease they felt with him. If you're considering Andrew for your special occasion, book him - we can't recommend him highly enough!

I’m McKenzie, a photographer who embraces my couples who desire physical visual memories of their connection at any level, so you can have the stages of your relationship captured to look back on and remember all of the little things that feel so big; the way they brush your hair out of your face or beam at how beautiful you are, or even the smallest thing like a hand on your thigh. All of these things help you feel exactly how you felt in that moment. If you are here, you desire a photo gallery that makes you feel something.

With a passion for storytelling, I weave together posed portraits and candid moments, creating a visual narrative that defies traditional portrait photography. Each frame is an invitation to relive the most intimate and cherished moments of your life. At the heart of my approach is a commitment to authenticity. I strive to go beyond the surface, capturing the genuine emotions that make each story unique.

Madison and I met when she hired me to do her wedding flowers but since then we have worked together as collaborators on several wedding projects! She is sweet, funny, kind and wonderful at creating and sticking to realistic timelines. She captures the day as it really is and doesn't make you do corny poses or funny prompts like some other wedding photographers. Her style is dreamy fun vintage and she often brings several cameras so that you can have some photos that are digital as well as film. I am very excited to see that she is leaving her day job and spending time doing what she was meant to do, being a creative!

Loui Photography LLC / Loui + Co

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Hayley and I are wedding videographers (Sublime Exposures Films). We meet photographers all the time and know what it's like to work with normal ones, bad ones, and now even great ones. Meg of LouiPhotography was the most decisive AND remained flexible. She was the most communicative about what she was going to do and why, and was extremely transparent. We're originally from Fargo, and working with her made us want to move to the cities to hang with the real professionals. Thanks for making us feel so welcomed and working with us so well to make our jobs easy. All teams should be able to collaborate like that to make the day the least stressful for the brides and grooms as possible and we shall always strive for this standard. Hope to work with you again soon!

Lindsay Miller Photography

  • Starts at $3,100
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN

Hello and welcome! My name is Lindsay and I am a Saint Paul based photographer. My style is a mix of candid, photojournalistic, traditional and artistic. With those techniques in mind, I do my best to tell your story. I believe every story and individual is unique, and therefore should be captured that way.

I had the opportunity to work with Lindsay Miller Photography at an October 2020 wedding. She was the photographer and I was the videographer. She is so wonderful and let me surprise our couple with an even more special full length video - one that showed the whole day through Lindsay's beautiful photos!!  Since I only shot the ceremony, I'm so ecstatic that she was kind enough to team up on the full length video so the couple could watch their entire day, including the parts I wasn't there to video. Her work took that video to the next level and I'm so happy to have gotten the chance to showcase her fantastic work. She was a dream to communicate with, replied in a timely manner, and is such an easy going person to work with. She truly is a dream photographer!

Two Oaks Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN

I've always had an interest in photography, but my passion really took off when I had my first child. There is something special about capturing children in the moments of pure joy. The special moments in people's lives, sometimes lasting only an instant, are the reason I decided to pursue a career in photography. I live for taking that perfect candid shot. Weddings, children at play, engagements, all of them offer their moments, maybe even one, that you can never get back. My goal is to always capture those moments you can look back and reflect on for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jake is SOooo great to work with and I couldn’t recommend him and Two Oaks Photography more. He took our engagement photos as well and was so easy to work with, he had great ideas for poses to try and entertained all of my ideas too. I knew when I got those pics back that I definitely made the right choice for a wedding photographer! He was with us ALL DAY and night on our wedding day, going to both the bride and groom locations of getting ready and then never missed a beat all day (and night when he even took pics at the bar after the reception!!). He brought in a second photographer too which put me at ease that literally every moment of our day was being captured. Jake is the best and definitely comes highly recommended by me and my husband!!!

Morey Lindquist Photography

  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN

Born in the French Alps and growing up together with my 4 siblings, in a stone house on the side of a mountain, it wasn't difficult to be moved by the beauty that surrounded me. It wasn't long until I turned to imagery as a means of interaction with the visual world around me and to use it as a means of communication with others. I hope to use the power of the image to make a difference and be a part of something bigger than myself. Camera in hand I hope to give you a chance to share and relive your special moments of life through the images we create together. Lets make something.

Morey was awesome! He has a very calm and professional presence and we will definitely be using him again in the future. Photos that we will have in the frame for years.

NYLONSADDLE Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN

My love for photography began as a sophomore in high school taking black and white photography. Following high school I lived abroad for a bit and once back in the states started capturing friends weddings. I started my business in 2014 and have never looked back. I capture with both digital and film and believe photos are one of the most important things we have to hold on to for lifetimes to come. I love freezing memories in time and hope my couples feel the same.

We couldn’t be happier with selecting NYLONSADDLE PHOTOGRAPHY for our wedding photos! Nicole did an excellent job wrangling our large family & wedding party as well as capturing all the details and the vibe that was so very us. As the bride, I missed a lot of the little details of the day and I’m so thrilled to have those captured as well as the big moments so beautifully documented. In addition to digital photos, we chose to add on a roll of film to our photos and the results were just stellar. It was perfect and we are over the moon with the results! On top of all that, Nicole was just so much fun to get to know. We would love to work with her again in the future!

Hey there, I'm Bethany. I love meeting people, celebrating people, and making people feel awesome. My photography is all about authenticity and a sense of adventure! I'm a love-obsessed individual whose passion and joy come from telling visual stories. I use a natural approach to photograph every smile, tear, and embrace shared on your special day. I believe that by being unobtrusive I can capture moments that aren’t staged, and are full of life.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't be happier with our photos from Bethany! Not only did she bring wonderful energy to our day, but she managed to get every photo we hoped for on our list and more. On a day that could have been stressful and overwhelming, Bethany was a positive and focused presence, and made all of our family and friends super comfortable. We knew we loved Bethany's Kodak-inspired aesthetic, and were so excited when we got our gallery full of timeless, romantic, and beautiful photos. She also turned around a mini gallery for us right away, so we could share highlights with those who couldn't be there on the day. We recommend Bethany to all the engaged couples we know, because she's not only a talented photographer, but someone who really cares about capturing the memories of your special day.

Nikki Jilek Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves West Saint Paul, MN

I’ve loved art for as long as I can remember. In fact, I spent more time sketching, and creating things than paying attention in most classes (oops). I’ve found that art has always been a way for me to communicate with the world. Where my words fell short, creating things came in handy. Photography is simply an amazing extension of that. To me, photography is a way to capture memories and intricate details that God has created, to tell the story. And my desire is to capture feelings and candid moments that you can look at and instantly connect with - for years to come. People matter, and everyone has a story to tell!

Nikki and her sidekick did an amazing job capturing photos of our wedding day from beginning to end. We opted for the 2nd photographer and were so glad we did. That allowed us to get a large volume of pictures from multiple angles. Plus when the wedding party took a photoshoot tour of Minneapolis with Nikki, her partner captured photos of the cocktail hour at the wedding reception. The photos came out beautifully. Nikki also worked super well with our videographer, grabbing complementary shots. We have a great set of candid pics. She also composed tons of fun and creative setups for the bridal party that turned out wonderfully! For Christmas, we took (600) of the best shots and built a photobook for our parents as gifts. They were an instant hit and something we'll treasure forever. We're so glad we went with Nikki and would highly recommend you having her photograph your wedding!
