Bemidji Wedding Photography and Video Photographers Capture Natural Photos. Our Bemidji Photographers Catch Magical Moments & Emotions.

I’m a Bemidji Area Photographer who specializes in local photography at outdoor wedding venues. I have 20 years of experience and have photographed over 1500 weddings. 500 of these weddings were in MN and ND. Then in 2010 I started a new wedding planning business in Maui. My company Affordable Barefoot Maui wedding provides beautiful beach photography and simple romantic ceremonies. Since moving to Bemidji 5 years ago I have continued doing wedding photography and performing ceremonies. In addition to doing weddings at more traditional local wedding venues I have created a complete wedding package that includes ceremony and photography at people’s home or at one of the many gorgeous local area beaches. This can often save couples 10 to $20,000.! Some of these couples after their elopement ceremony choose to have a simple reception and dance. Imagine a beautiful outdoor wedding ceremony that includes 150 photos that doesn’t break your bank account!

One of the aspects of my job that I love the most is encountering couples years after their wedding.  On May 7th, 2024, as I was concluding a wedding ceremony at Makena Cove, I was pleasantly surprised to hear my name being called. Turning around, I was delighted to see Matt and Stephanie, a couple whose wedding I had officiated on May 7th, 2022.  They shared with me that they had returned for the second consecutive year to commemorate their anniversary at the very spot where they had exchanged vows, and to capture a photo with the picture from their wedding day. Every year they’ve take a photo holding the photo from the previous year! Such a fun and heartwarming tradition! #mauiwedding #mauiweddingplanner #mauiweddingpackage
5.7.24 Morning wedding at Makena Cove this little fellow swam up and climbed ashore. This was the first time I've ever seen a deer swimming in the ocean!  I've been photo bombed by Turtles, Whales, and dolphins during weddings but never deer...until today!
The dress has pockets! #weddingdress #mauiweddingplanner #mauiweddingpackages
