FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY for EXPERIENTIAL WEDDINGS IN MINNESOTA & beyond
LET’S MAKE WEDDINGS STRAIGHTFORWARD
You’re a busy human with a life outside of wedding planning.
Let me help with that.
If you’re looking for a lighthearted photographer who has an eye for the “in-between” moments, a knack for fun candid photos, and a love for showcasing each event’s unique personality on both digital and film — you’re probably in the right spot!
“When I tell you that Adrian made the whole thing completely stress-free and fun I mean it 100%”
I cannot stress how much I dislike getting my photo taken, much less photo shoots. When I tell you that Adrian made the whole thing completely stress-free and fun I mean it 100%. We just got our full wedding photo set back and we are BLOWN away! from the first image we knew we were going to be impressed. if you are looking for someone who is down to earth, stress free and is top notch at their craft, look no further. 1000/10 would always recommend Adrian!

the process
-
Fill out any contact form on the website or email me directly at hello@adrianstein.com. You’ll receive a response within 1-2 business days.
-
In order to craft entirely custom options based on your values, we’ll need talk more about what you need.
If you’re truly short on time, feel free to let me know before our call. Most consultation calls are only around 15 minutes.
-
You’ll get a custom web-page sent to you within 24 hours of our call. This page will include notes, FAQ’s I think may be helpful, and a selection of packages that have been specifically created for you (ranging from “minimum coverage you’d need” to “everything you could want”).
-
Once you decide on a package, the contract will be sent to your inbox, as well as a link to pay your retainer.
The invoice, contract, and any due-dates or reminders will be automatically sent to your inbox so you’ll never need to fish for information.
-
If you want an engagement session, we’ll start sorting out the details within about a month or two. If not, you can expect a brief pause in communication, followed by check-in emails starting around the 6-month mark (9 months for destination weddings).
Photo planning includes things like photo preference check-ins, chatting about mood boards or design decks, and sorting out family photos. My goal is to be intimately familiar with how you want your wedding documented.
-
I guide my wedding-day workflow around the priorities we’ve previously discussed:
I’ll be right in the middle of the action whenever needed — getting fun candids and blending in with guests to get those those “I didn’t even see that!” photos, and fade into the background during softer moments like the first look and ceremony.
-
You’ll get sneak peeks within a few days of the wedding, and the rest of the gallery within 6-8 weeks of the event (along with at least a 24-hour warning beforehand).
This way, you can schedule a date night to sit down and experience the wedding gallery in an intentional way with your partner.
Bespoke packages will be crafted based on your unique wedding plans, values, and location(s)
Because you shouldn’t settle for anything less than intentional.

Getting married now but having a reception later? Eloping at a courthouse so you don’t have to worry about legal logistics for your destination wedding? No matter the reason, I’ve got your back. Elopements begin at 2400 for 90 minutes of coverage in Minneapolis or Saint Paul. Other locations available for a small travel fee.
YES, your civil ceremony can be added to your destination wedding package!
“You could tell she genuinely wanted to capture what was most important to us and what we envisioned”
Adrian was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with to capture all moments from our special day! We appreciated her attention to detail and her variety of equipment, such as using film. She was super professional throughout our meetings leading up to the wedding day and very thoughtful in terms planning the day of schedule. You could tell she genuinely wanted to capture what was most important to us and what we envisioned. Adrian made us feel so at ease while posing for the camera and definitely was able to get family members comfortable too. We would highly recommend her to anyone around us in need of a photographer for any occasion and would love to work with her in the future!
