ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
HELLO, HELLO
Hi, I’m Adrian! I’m a visual artist, film-lover, and enthusiastic foodie based in NE Minneapolis (but my well-worn suitcase is always ready).
As a lifelong artist, I view each wedding as a completely unique chance to paint with light, document the fun, and to deliver those “I didn’t even know you saw that!” moments in a thoughtful and creative way. The goal? To showcase your wedding’s unique flavor using both traditional and nontraditional images - because you shouldn’t have to choose between photos of your grandma and an artist’s touch.
If you want a relaxed photographer who feels like an old friend, takes inspiration from fine art, and leads you on a lighthearted wedding photo journey — you’re probably in the right place.
A NOTE
As a firmly people-first business, Adrian Steinbach Photography proudly supports LGBTQIA+ rights, celebrates diversity in skin tone and culture, and practices environmental stewardship for future generations. You are welcome, loved, and supported here.
Don’t take my word for it; take theirs.

FAQs About Minnesota Weddings
We see that you’re based in Minneapolis! Do you work in other areas too?
Absolutely! I’ve taken photos all around the world — from North Shore Elopements to Weekends in Mexico to formal Paris wedding venues! Wherever you’re getting married, I’m happy to be there with you.
We’re looking for inclusive wedding vendors! Do you photograph LGBTQIA+ Couples?
Yes I do! I love and actively support the Queer Community, and only recommend wedding vendors who share the same values, whether you’re in Minneapolis, on the coast, or abroad.
Can you help us figure out where to take wedding portraits in Minneapolis or Saint Paul?
Of course! I always enjoy recommending a unique set of photo locations according to your venue, accessibility requirements, and overall preferences. This is part of the overall photo planning process!
“I still can't believe she was ours for the elopement & weekend. In addition to the absolutely stunning photography, she was such a help in ways I didn't even know a photographer would be”
