Minneapolis Backyard Wedding Photographer

Oh my gosh! I was so lucky to be able to photograph the wedding of Michael and Jamie! They are such a sweet and adorable couple! They had a fabulous DIY backyard wedding at Jamie’s parents home in the suburbs of Minneapolis.It couldn’t have been more perfect! The weather was picture perfect and there were so many adorable details that Jamie incorporated in her wedding reception decorations. Don’t you just love the suitcase for the cards? ADORABLE! I love a wedding that has a lot of great details for me to photography. Their wedding had so many personal touches. The flowers were beautiful! The pink and green hues worked so well together and complemented the setting so well! There were signs posting the way as guests arrived and ended with a cute sign that read, “As two families are becoming one, we ask that you choose a seat and not a side.”. A couple of my favorite images from this wedding are the snapshots of both dads during the ceremony. I have to say that backyard weddings are some of my favorite. I might be biased though… I had a backyard wedding… 13 years ago this month! Where does the time go? Minneapolis Backyard Wedding Photographer | Michelle Tanner

Thank you, Jamie and Michael, for having me out to capture your perfect wedding day!

Meet Michelle

“I’m not sure which is harder,” says Michelle Tanner. “Going to the dentist or talking about oneself.”

Luckily, Michelle’s work does much of her talking for her: fresh, clean, modern. “I work actively to stay up on modern photography trends, but ultimately want to create a timeless product. I love the storytelling aspect of photography. I want you to look back on your images and be taken back to that moment, feeling the same feelings you did when the picture was captured.”

Michelle also understands it can be overwhelming for couples and families to pick a photographer who best complements their personalities. “There are numerous photographers in the Twin Cities area, and we all have tons of passion for what we do,” she says. As to Michelle, her emphasis is on great composition, without forced posing. She possesses a real knack for being in the right place at the right time, capturing natural moments as they happen. Her eye is quick and the shots are crisp, meaning images stand on their own without need for extreme editing or re-touching.

On the professional side, she aims for best possible communication – both timely and clear – before, during and after the wedding or session. She strives for optimism, honesty, organization, flexibility and – as much as possible – a stress-free day for you! Ever-calm amid the storm, Michelle remains “invisible” as needed, but can easily step up to guided directing at a moment’s notice.
