welcome,
i'm andi
If you love reality TV (The Bachelor and Survivor are my favorites), can’t say no to a good coffee run, and believe life is better with a little laughter mixed in, we’re probably going to get along just fine.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me with my husband and my fiery red headed little girl, soaking up time outside, wandering farmers markets, or listening to an audiobook while juggling all the everyday chaos.
I’m also an elementary school teacher, which means I’m calm under pressure, organized, and always ready to step in when you need someone to take the lead.
I love love, I love people, and I’m here for the real moments, the happy tears, the belly laughs, and everything in between.
Rooted in the softness of the countryside and inspired by the structure and style of the city, my work lives at the intersection of emotion and elegance. I’m here to document not just what you see, but what you feel—those fleeting, honest moments that often go unnoticed until they’re framed.
As your photographer, my biggest goal is to make your experience feel fun, stress free, and completely taken care of. I’m based in Minnesota, but I’m always down to travel wherever your love story takes you. I photograph weddings all across the state, from small town celebrations to Minneapolis and everything in between, and I love getting to explore new places with my couples.
Whether you’re planning a classic Minnesota wedding day or dreaming up a destination celebration, I’ll help guide you through the process, build a timeline that flows smoothly, and make sure you feel calm and confident every step of the way. No matter the location, I’m there to capture your day in a way that feels timeless, emotional, and truly you.
Based in Minnesota, but always ready to travel
I didn’t know what came first, how to build a timeline, or how to make everything flow without feeling rushed. It felt exciting… but also overwhelming. And I remember thinking how badly I wished I had someone in my corner who could just say, “Here’s what matters, here’s what doesn’t, and here’s how we’re going to make this easy.”
That experience stuck with me.
Because now, on the other side of it, I get to be that person for my couples.
That’s exactly why I created the experience I offer today. I help you build a clear plan, a timeline that makes sense, and a wedding day that feels organized without feeling packed. I make sure you have breathing room to slow down, soak it all in, and actually enjoy the day you’ve been dreaming about.
Because your wedding shouldn’t feel stressful. It should feel fun, meaningful, and like the best day ever. And I’ve got you every step of the way.
When I started planning my own wedding, I honestly had no clue where to begin.
that's me
"andi is genuinely a good human"

Growing up, I was always the one messing around with a little point and shoot camera with my friends, taking photos of anything and everything. I didn’t know it then, but I was already falling in love with capturing memories.
In college, I took a photography class and completely fell in love, especially with the dark room and the magic of watching images come to life. Studying abroad and living overseas only deepened that passion and taught me to see the world differently, paying attention to composition, light, and the little details.
After college, before teaching became my full time life, photography became my creative outlet. And somewhere along the way, it turned into so much more.
Now I get to do what I love for a living, documenting real love stories and the moments people never want to forget.
How it all began...
Because you deserve more out of your wedding experience
You’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. From the moment you book, I help guide you through the process with clear next steps, planning advice, and support along the way so you feel confident and excited instead of overwhelmed.
Not sure where to start?
Good news, that’s exactly my style. I’ll give you gentle direction when you need it, but I’ll never make you feel stiff or overly posed. My goal is for your photos to feel natural, emotional, and truly like you.
Want photos that feel real, not forced?
That’s where I come in. I help create a timeline that makes sense, keeps the day moving, and gives you breathing room to actually enjoy it. Less chaos, less stress, and more time soaking in every moment with your favorite people.
Want a wedding day that flows smoothly?
I’ve got you. I’ll help you plan your day in a way that prioritizes both beautiful photos and real moments. You won’t feel like you’re spending your entire wedding day taking pictures. You’ll feel like you’re living it, and I’ll be there capturing it all as it unfolds.
Not sure how to plan for photos and still be present?
I love working with couples who want real, heartfelt photos that capture their day exactly as it feels. If you’re ready to laugh, soak in every moment, and not stress over the little things, we’ll vibe perfectly. I thrive on your energy and love capturing genuine connection—glances, laughs, and those in-between moments. If you’re up for creating images that tell your unique love story, I’d be thrilled to work with you.
