My Philosophy

 

Everyone To Be Seen, Known, Loved

 

 

Your story deserves to be remembered in the way that feels right for you. That’s why I offer both photography and videography—so you can choose timeless images, cinematic films, or both.




What You Can Expect


A relaxed, natural experience that puts you at ease

Guidance when you need it, space when you don’t

A blend of candid storytelling and intentional artistry

Images and films that are timeless, not trendy

 

Before I ever photographed people, I photographed place. Cross Lake Media was shaped on long days wandering Minnesota’s state parks, learning how light moves across water, how quiet moments tell the biggest stories, and how being fully present changes the way you see. Each of my packages is named after a park that marked me—Itasca State Park for couples and lifestyle portraits rooted in connection and ease, Tettegouche for elopements that feel wild, intentional, and deeply yours, and Franz Jevne for all-day wedding coverage inspired by vast water and the feeling of home. These collections are an extension of where I began and how I work: grounded, story-driven, and centered on documenting love as it truly feels. Lastly, Whitewater,  known for it’s stunning fall views, it is for the storytellers for futrure generations as you relive your life in video.
