Did you know that I shoot Minnesota weddings too? While I only take on a limited amount each year, I do offer wedding photography as one of my services. You can find more about my wedding services here https://bethjphotography.com/wedding-photography/

Kelsey and Jeff make such a beautiful couple! Kelsey and Jeff got ready at a nearby hotel and took a shuttle bus to the country club. The couple was hoping to have the wedding outside but it was one of those bitterly cold and windy fall days so they moved the reception inside. While I know it wasn’t what they planned it still turned out beautifully. The couple and their wedding party and family even braved the cold for some outdoor photos.

The couple had a lot of neat little touches, like individual bottles of syrup made from a family member with their names and wedding date on it. The flowers, and the LOVE lit up were also a lovely touch. I also loved the colors she had picked out the gray and purple were perfect fall colors.

Kelsey made the most beautiful bride, she had a gorgeous dress, and on the bottom of her shoes she had “I do” written in blue letters for her something blue. She has a timeless beauty to her and was a dream to photograph.

Blackberry Ridge is a beautiful venue and the grounds are quite lovely, I wish we could have utilized them a little more, but I was still happy with the outdoor shots we got.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer for 2018 yet, I still have quite a few dates open, and I would love to talk to you about your big wedding day!

Did you know my business relocated last year? I moved to Zimmerman, MN which is closer to Elk River, Becker, Monticello, Otsego, Maple Grove, etc. I am still serving the St. Cloud area as that is only an hour away from me, and I still visit there.PINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEWhat can I say about Amy? Other than I don’t think I have ever met a young lady with a more sparkling personality. She was so adult like and just hilarious, she made her session so fun. Did I mention she is stunning? That hair, those freckles, gah! She had the best “serious” face I have seen in awhile. Amy did one of my shorter sessions but we still packed a ton into that session. We did her session at Bend in the River park, near Rice which has a ton of variety. I loved that she brought her electric guitar and wanted to get a few pictures with that.

Isn’t that field amazing?! Its one of my favorite spots I have ever shot at, and I try to use it every time I am at that place. Depending on the time of year there are various wildflowers that bloom there too. Although we had to withstand tons of bugs and bees!

I am now booking for this summer and fall in Elk River and all the surrounding areas. I travel statewide. email me at – [email protected] to book your session now.

Yes, I photograph guys too! I had the honor of photographing Tyler’s sister too, I love when I get to work with siblings, I really enjoy getting to know the Minnesota families. It was really important to Tyler that we photographed his two loves, his car, and the family dog.
PINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEPINIMAGEWe took Tyler’s car to my favorite urban location in St. Cloud and it made the perfect backdrop. He was the first guy I have had bring his car, and it was so fun! I love when seniors want to incorporate their hobbies and passions into their sessions. I have photographed Minnesota dancers in dance studios, swimmers underwater, soccer players in soccer fields, basket ball players on the court, many a senior with their pets. I adore when they bring pets with, while I know some photographers wince at the idea, I think its fantastic and adds a lot to a clients gallery.

After we did some urban shots we headed to my favorite farm and did some more casual shots and introduced the dog. I know most guy teens dread getting there picture taken…they still do as adults! That is why I do offer a basic session, that is only an hour in length for the guys. It allows for two outfit changes and is sweet and simple. It takes place in one location, and I have many ideas for awesome locations, but I am also open to your suggestions. Basic sessions are only offered on the weeknights.

Class of 2019 I am now booking for 2018. I have limited availability so don’t wait until the last minute to book a Minnesota senior photographer. Why settle for ordinary senior pictures when you can have extraordinary ones.

I look forward to getting to know the people in my community and serving them for many years to come! I have loved our first year in Zimmerman, Minnesota. Our neighborhood and the schools have been amazing so far.
