Minnesota Elopement Photographer
a wedding day spent exactly your way
There’s something deeply meaningful about choosing a smaller, more intentional way of getting married. Whether it’s just the two of you on a mountaintop, or a quiet gather with your closest people, elopements and intimate weddings create space to breathe, feel, and be fully present.
Maybe you’re drawn to something more personal, where the focus is on time spent together rather than timelines to follow. Maybe you want a day that feels less like a performance and more like a reflection of who you are — unrushed, unfiltered, and fully yours. You don’t need a crowd to make it meaningful. All you need is honesty, love, and the freedom to spend the day in a way that makes sense to you.
That’s where I come in. As your Minnesota elopement photographer, I document these kinds of days with a quiet presence — looking for the real stuff: the glances, the laughter, the stillness. The joy of waking up slowly. The emotion of reading vows in private. The warmth of sharing a meal with the few people who mean the most. There’s a certain kind of magic that unfolds when you strip everything back and make space for what truly matters.

Hello, I'm Tom
I’m a Minneapolis, Minnesota photographer specializing in weddings and elopements. I have a love for intimate imagery, cozy knits, and a great laugh. For more than a decade, I’ve been in pursuit of turning imperfect moments into meaningful memories to be re-lived by many.
I fell in love with photography by flipping through film negatives my grandfather took for my family, - simple, seemingly-mundane moments turned into forever memories. Many of these moments, now framed and decorating my walls, have inspired me to create the same for others. Photography is often all we have left of life’s most meaningful people in our lives, and it’s an honor to capture them for you.
I have a love for nostalgia, and seek to make imagery to be enjoyed for decades. When I’m not behind a camera, I’m often trying new recipes, knitting something cozy, or finding ways to feel like a kid again.
