Why I Love North Dakota Weddings
There is so much natural beauty in North Dakota with the green rolling hills, lakes and rivers and plenty of farmland. I’ve been able to appreciate the surrounding landscapes and truly can make breathtaking backdrops for weddings. There’s so much more here to admire than you’d think! I promise that if you are planning a wedding in North Dakota, you can still create that stunning wedding of your dreams!
North Dakota Wedding Venues

Engagement Photos in North Dakota
Still early on in your wedding planning process and curious where to have your engagement session done? There are a few hidden gems here that I love to take my couples and capture such an important occasion! Here are a few of those locations that you can choose from.
When to Plan a North Dakota Wedding
Deciding on what time of year plan your wedding can really set the tone for your day and you want it to fit what you’ve envisioned! Due to weather, the best time of year is typically summer. You won’t have to worry about the chance of a snowstorm (most likely!) and can enjoy a warm, sunny day.
You can always plan a late spring or early fall wedding as well if you would like slightly cooler temperatures. But you will want to have a backup plan in case of bad weather. So typically, I do like to recommend a summer wedding to my couples!
North Dakota Wedding Photographer
I’m Tessa, a wedding and portrait photographer based in North Dakota, available for travel. I love love. Seeing the little smirks, hearing the belly laughs, and watching your families grow is so much more than a job to me. Being able to photograph your wedding, your growing family, and your high school senior is such an honor and I cannot wait to capture these moments with you.
If you’re looking for someone who is fun, but can be quiet when the moment calls for it, someone who will laugh with you, or cry with you, or someone who will constantly let you know how good you look during your session, then we need to chat! I cannot wait to meet you.
XO, Tessa
