Welcome Lovers
for the heartfelt, in love, timeless and intimate lovers
A Minnesota & Wisconsin -based wedding photographer & videographer that incorporates a documentary approach to capturing destination, intimate, and outdoor weddings.
If I'm not working, you can catch me cooking new recipes and searching fashion styles & popular items online... Jo West is my new obsession. You can check my Amazon storefront HERE as well as items still available from my online boutique (now closed sadly but you can still purchase things directly through me * coming soon on this site). You can also find me fishing, at the pool, or golfing at the country club with my love Corey, or trying out restaurants & coffee shops, hiking in state parks, or running at the gym. My 2023 goal is to cherish and be more present in my own life moments, making the little things as special. This summer I hope to head to the Wisconsin est coast and sit and enjoy the beach more. My past has allowed me to live in South Carolina, and Nashville - giving me the travel bug. I love that this business lets me not only meet new incredible people but also explore new sights and locations

I am based in Owatonna, Minnesota & Madison, Wisconsin.
Sydney you're in two places at once? Well, I currently live full-time in Owatonna, however, I have family in the lower west Wisconsin area, as well as the Green Bay - Eastern Wisconsin coast, so I consider myself still local to the area as I am back there frequently and have many clients and connections in the Wisconsin Area.
I've traveled around the states and internationally to capture love stories. I've recently traveled to the sunny beaches of Punta Cana & Mexico, to the cold and icy waters of North Shore Minnesota, and to mountain views of the Grand Tetons in Yellowstone. If you're a world traveler like myself, then I am down to capture your destination or elopement wedding anywhere you wish to say "I Do".
PRINTS BY SYDNEY
A collection of my selected film works, made available to you in fine print. From my adventures worldwide, to the connection I experience in my backyard. I hope you find as much inspiration in my photos as I did while capturing them.
