β€œTracy & Kyle are fantastic artists and teammates! They made our wedding experience such a fun journey every step of the way and we were blown away by how fantastic all of our photos turned out in both our engagement and wedding day photos. We met with them in-person twice for consultations and felt so comfortable talking with them and sharing our experiences as fellow wedding-industry workers. The rate at which we received our photos after our engagement shoot and our wedding was perfect! They sent a few samples that showed the quality and attention to detail, and the remaining complete albums were sent within a week! So fast but so much attention to detail and great editing. We also loved their blog posts as a way to share photos with friends and family and we enjoyed browsing other couples' albums as well! As a same-sex mixed race couple, we really appreciated their wide portfolio of diverse couples of LGBTQIA and BIPOC clients.”

Is simple really. I want to capture real moments and create beautiful portraits for you. Portraits that you will enjoy looking at long after your wedding. I believe that wedding photography doesn't have to be boring. I don't want to just give you pictures. I want to create works of art that you will be proud to hang in your home. Building friendships & relationships are another goal of mine as well. If I have created a story documenting your day, we had some fun doing it, and your friends all say your wedding photographer was amazing then I accomplished my goal.

At Studio Twelve:52, we believe your wedding day deserves to be captured as authentically and vibrantly as you experience it. As a married photography duo with over 14 years of experience and 600+ weddings documented, we specialize in creating true-to-life/timeless imagery that tells your unique love story. Serving Minnesota and beyond β€” we combine a 50/50 fine art approach with a documentary eye to capture every joyful, heartfelt, and beautifully unexpected moment while creating stunning portraits as well. Our couples are modern romantics with impeccable taste -valuing experiences, personal touches, and, of course, their beloved furbabies!

β€œWOW, where do I begin. Kasey and Tyler are masters at what they do! From two different engagement sessions to our wedding day, they knew exactly how to get the "perfect shot". Our wedding day came with a small amount of "conveniently timed" rain (during our first look and wedding party photos!), and they knew exactly how to work with what we had (a tall tree to hide under and an umbrella..). The attached photo was taken during a downpour rain and it STILL looks beautiful!! They were incredibly organized and all photos were pre-planned so they had a set plan in order to avoid wasting time. They listened to what my husband and I wanted, and made sure we were taking care of ourselves (eh-hem, reminding us to eat multiple times throughout the day..). They were so easy going but didn't have a problem putting their foot down if a random family member or other vendor were "problematic" (per the brides request!!). I cannot wait to work with them again! THANK YOU Kasey and Tyler for being the best in the business!!! 3”

I am the heart and soul behind Dakota Layne Photo. Based in western Wisconsin, my love for photography started as a seven-year-old girl as the flower girl in a family wedding and has now become an extension of who I am. I approach my clients from a place of empathy - understanding who they are, what is important to them, and how I can bring their story to life in a significant and meaningful way.

Awarded Best of Zola
β€œFrom the moment I inquired with Dakota, she was prompt. We instantly jumped on a call and we literally talked for a hour! I instantly knew she was going to be our photographer! Throughout the planning process, she consistently reached out to check in. Her thoughtful and uplifting voice messages were such a light midst the stresses of wedding planning. I would get so excited when I saw her name pop up on my phone, her bubbly personality and genuine care in her messages meant everything to us!! Our engagement photo day was a scorcher--95 degrees and pure sun!! But Dakota made the absolute best of it, even as we took breaks to cool down. Despite the sweat and crazy heat, our photos turned our magazine worthy--seriously stunning!! In the weeks leading up to the wedding she checked in almost daily, which was so reassuring. Her online website and questionnaire were very thorough and incredibly helpful. At one point, I even called her to vent about a difficult wedding situation (that had nothing to do with her), and she listened and reassured me through it all! She is truly a wedding industry professional!! On our wedding day, her presence was incredibly pleasant and everything flowed perfect. We fell a bit behind due to hair and makeup, and she continued to reassure me that we would be just fine. Her photography style is absolutely stunning, with great attention to detail that captured every important moment for us. We received our sneak peeks just a day or two after the wedding which was one of my favorite memories ever!!-- getting to reminisce on the stunning photos with my now husband on our first day of our honeymoon. It meant the world to us! The full gallery was delivered within the timeframe discussed in our contract as promised, I even had a few questions about different angles and additional photos and she delivered on all of my requests. Her gallery website was very easy to use and share. Overall we had a 1000/10 experience with having Dakota as our wedding photographer. Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also so personable and was one of the best decisions and investments we have ever made! When it is your special day, you want to be surrounded by the absolute best, and that is Dakota!!”

It's amazing how one day someone walks into your life, and suddenly you can't remember how you ever lived without them! It's been my life's mission to beautifully capture every couple's love story along with every new chapter in their lives (from proposals to growing families).

She was thorough, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. She truly went above and beyond, ensuring we got all the shots we wanted and some we didn't even know we needed! The quality of her work is exceptional - she is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and brought a fun energy to the day. Every photo we've seen has exceeded our expectations, and she even uploaded our sneak peek photos quickly so we could share them with our loved ones.

There are so many reasons why I love weddings: I love all of the little details, the way you get to express who you are as a couple, and the excitement of capturing your special day! My job as a photographer is to witness your story. I realize your story is unique to you and your fiancΓ©.

Not only did we love her for her attention to detail, willingness to go above and beyond at our engagement shoot & wedding, how she made us feel comfortable, her efficiency (we got to enjoy our wedding and not spend hours taking pictures, but still have every shot we want!) - but our family and friends even commented on how lovely she was! Talent, kindness, thorough, communicative, collaborative with us and our vendors - I cannot recommend Tonya enough! She impressed me from the start when I met with her for our consultation and she had a presentation of the packages, recommendations, and even a sample timeline. Thank you Tonya 3”

If your looking for a laid back, easy going, fun, and creative photo shoot experience then Call us today to schedule your session! I look forward to capturing your photos so that you can enjoy them for years to come.

β€œJosh Anderson Photography was the absolute best choice for our wedding photographer. His communication style was amazing, honest, up-front and true throughout the entire process. The quality of his work and value was simply beautiful, mind-blowing, perfect, amazing, and unbelievably pretty. He was absolutely amazing with the whole process, truly helping to coordinate pictures which is extremely difficult with large families. He made it smooth and easy to finish all of the pictures that I wanted done. He also took extra pictures that I would have never even thought of that turned out beautiful. He was there to capture every single moment! I would recommend him to absolutely anyone wanting the most perfect pictures- there is no one better in the business than him!”

Welcome to my little corner of the internet! My name is Jacquie & I’m a Minnesota based but always willing to travel wedding, senior, & lifestyle photographer who loves Jesus, iced black tea, sunshine, slow mornings, and a good read. I never fail to laugh really loudly or really quietly with that little weezy noise, dance crazily to songs that someone would usually slow dance to & of course to ones that have a solid beat, I sing when I talk & am the person who sings a song that goes with what someone is saying (kind of like a Pitch Perfect riff off, but only with myself), and I wholeheartedly love what I get to do everyday.

β€œAlways such a joy being able to work with Jacquie!!! She's such a hard worker and always makes everyone around her feel so comfortable and the best looking selfs in every photo :)”
