Today is officially THE day. 🍻

Maria + TJ - it is your wedding day and we are SO excited for you both (ps. hugs and cameras are already ready to go). ✨📸

Reminiscing ~ We had the best time documenting these two during their engagement session at Modist Brewing Co. (shout out to their team for approving our request and being so dang awesome the whole time 🤘)… the epic murals, the beers, the laughs, the almost-kisses/snuggles in front of walls that are honestly just as colorful and fun as their energy. It was SUCH a good time, and we will always cherish this time of getting to hear more about your story and fave breweries / places you’ve been as a couple, it absolutely made us even more excited for everything.

We cannot wait - see you SOON!!!⚡️

[ Also, already know it’s going to be an epic day with the Dos Goats Plans wedding coordination team present as well. 🫶🎉 ]

Bonus Wedding Theme: ✨GUS✨

Picture this… Gus showed up in a bow tie, posed in the flowers, made his presence known during the ceremony (peeking out during the kiss), had his grand moment leading his humans through the entire wedding party like the dignified gentleman he is, and then his face spent the rest of the night on a giant stick on the dancefloor while his signature cocktail, the Cranberry Zoomies, kept the party going. 🍷✨

Tart, fizzy, and lovably wild. Just like Gus.

Courtney and Pavel celebrated their love with a stunning winter wedding at Minneapolis Event Centers [The Riverside] complete with deep red florals, candlelight everywhere, fresh snow falling outside, and the kind of joy that filled the room until the very last song.

But they also knew that a wedding without their golden boy wouldn’t be really their wedding at all… so obviously they went all out including him.

This is exactly why we do what we do. The love between two humans is everything. And the love a family has for their dog, who is absolutely a member of that family, is just as much part of the story. We will never not be obsessed with getting to document all of that love + joy. 🐾

Courtney and Pavel, thank you for letting us be there and celebrate alongside you. Your day was EVERYTHING. 🤍🤍🤍

+ Gus, we think about you often, buddy. 🫶

April is Limb Difference and Limb Loss Awareness Month. 🧡

I’ll be sharing more in-depth as we go, but for now, a little snapshot and why we are named Studio Twelve:52. 📸

Doctors said these hands would never hold anything.

March 8th, at 12:52 PM. 4 lbs 11 oz. I was born with Amniotic Band Syndrome. Shortly after my breathing/heart stopped, I was brought back.

ABS means fibrous bands wrapped around my hands, feet and left leg while I was developing, limiting or stopping their growth completely. My fingers all woven and stuck together, my left leg visibly shorter with a tight band. The doctors panicked.

They didn’t allow my mom to see or hold me for several hours. In that time, my other parent and his family wanted to put me up for adoption. My aunt (mom’s sister) held me first. Then my Nana.They chose me without hesitation.

When my mom finally got to see me she didn’t hesitate for a second, even after doctors said I’d probably never walk, run, hold objects properly, or function “normally”. She said none of that matters. We’ll find our own way.
And so we did.

I relearned to walk more than once after leg surgeries through Shriners, who did everything at zero cost to my family. I had my first hand surgery at one year old, and that right hand is still my dominant hand today.

At 16, walking flat footed for the first time, I launched my company. Full time by 18 + never looked back.

Music photography brought me to Tyler. Two kids who love music and dogs, turned into a life, a business, and a home of 6 pups together.

19 years with a camera in these hands (16+ professionally). 600+ weddings. 300+ bands. An MMA era. All of it led me straight to you, you reading this.

So why Studio Twelve:52? Because 12:52 is the moment I was born and then was almost gone before my adventure even started. Every time I catch it on the clock it’s an instant little bolt of gratitude. Every. Single. Time.

Gratitude doesn’t begin to cover it. I wouldn’t trade a single thing.

To everyone who cheered me on and trusted me / Studio 12:52 with their most precious moments along the way. With the most grateful heart, thank you. I am so glad this journey has brought us together.

Two photographers. 🤍
[ Married Co-Lead Team]
One signature storytelling style.
Countless love stories captured.

Crisp, clean, bold color. Absolutely timeless.
Captured true to life, exactly as it felt.

The sweet, soft moments. The blissful chaos. The subtle hand squeezes and happy tears. The dance floor energy. The crazy “wait, I can’t believe you caught THAT!!!!” moments…
And yes… the dogs stealing the spotlight exactly as they should. 🐾

After I reached out to one of our past brides recently, she said,
“I’m stunned you remember us after ten years!”

Truthfully… how could we not? ✨✨✨

Today = 11 Years Married 🤍 14 Years Together ✨
… and somehow it still feels like we’re just getting started all at the same time… 🥰

We’ve l seen each other through so many versions of life already: the heartbreaks and the victories, the late-night laughs that made our faces + stomachs hurt, the seasons that stretched us, and the quiet moments that reminded us what to love and be loved really means to us.

We’ve built a life together from scratch… one with six rescue dogs (+ Yuna in heaven 🌈🤍🐾), three cats (who truly just act like bonus dogs), big dreams, and a whole lot of heart… and sarcasm (mainly on your part). 🤣

I’m so glad there’s really never been a dull moment... From spontaneous cross country road trips with our pups to late-night jam sessions, debating who has better taste in allllll the things - coffee (your Dunkin vs my Starbucks), music, movies, tv shows, anime, restaurants, vehicle colors - you name it… we’ve experienced/captured so many love stories together, traveled for weddings + can you believe all the incredible pups we’ve met through our cameras?! - Challenging each other in video games / board games, and laughing about how our thermostat has become the ultimate marriage mediator while still fighting for the blankets (not only from each other, but usually Loki) - life together has been everything we imagined and more…

It’s a wild and epic adventure, as much as it is a safe, easygoing comfort... It’s truly a beautiful and wonderful mess - and it’s ours. They always say “marry your best friend,” and turns out… that really is the move. And can confirm first hand, it totally checks out. With that being said… I can’t wait to see where our story takes us + our pack next…

I love you. 🤍

*** Lastly, this story isn’t just ours (and not just because of the furbabies). It’s woven with all the hearts we’ve met along the way - friends who became family, couples who became lifelong friends, and the families we’ve gained through each other and have continued to grow. Every bit of love and support has shaped the life we have now and reminded us of the kind of love we want to keep living and also giving back every single day. So, thank you 🫶🤍

Evelyn + Jake 💐 … + just a few of our manyyy favorites from their intimate wedding at earlier this year. 🤍

… You two!!!! I gotta admit, every glimpse you share of your new chapter living in Italy as newlyweds has us feeling all sorts of nostalgic/sentimental — We miss you two already (so many fun memories made/documented), but what an incredible adventure you’re on! We cannot wait to eventually catch up and hear all about it. 🫶✨✨✨✨
