The Magic of courthouse Weddings
What I love most about a Downtown Duluth courthouse wedding is how intimate, stress-free, and effortlessly romantic it is. With its historic charm and stunning Lake Superior backdrops, it’s a beautiful way to say “I do” without the fuss.
Whether you're eloping or keeping it simple, the courthouse and surrounding cityscape offer timeless, heartfelt photo opportunities. It’s love, commitment, and breathtaking moments—without the overwhelm.
Meet your photographer
Hey, I'm Asher, stoked you're here!
I’m based in the beautiful city of Duluth, Minnesota. Running this wedding photography business is literally my dream come true.
I’m passionate about creating and documenting our visual history. We live in a time where taking photos has never been easier, but how often do we accidentally take the moment for granted?
When I’m behind the camera, I take seriously the responsibility that is photographing your family legacy.
My hope is that you'll cherish your wedding photographs for years to come as a family heirloom.

Over the years, I have obsessed over my client experience, from the first time you contact me to when you finally have all your images in your hands.

this is why i do it...
"Asher is the ultimate photographer. He captured the goofy vibe of my husband and I while managing to take beautiful posed portraits and candid shots throughout our ceremony and reception.
He went above and beyond to calm our nerves, and seamlessly coordinated family photos, shots with friends, and found cleaner after my bouquet transferred highlighter yellow water right onto the bodice of my dress.
When you book with Asher, you're guaranteeing that you'll have a full gallery of photos that capture your event AND have a friend who's on your side and will make sure everything goes smoothly. I cannot recommend working with Asher enough!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Let's look at an example timeline:
4:00pm - Family Photos (if applicable)
Ceremonies start just after 4:30, so arrive a little early and let's take some family formals! As these can be some of the more "boring" photos, they are also some of the most important photos we'll take on a wedding day.
4:30pm - Ceremony
Ceremony time is 4:30 p.m. unless otherwise arranged. The St. Louis County Courthouse closes at 4:30 p.m. so be sure you are here on time to get into the building.
5:00pm (approximately) - Newlywed Portraits
After the ceremony we'll head back outside and take some portraits as the sun begins to set over the courthouse. It is seriously STUNNING and one of my favorite spots in town to take photos!
6:00pm - Optional Cocktail Hour / Reception at my Studio
Once we wrap on pictures it's time to PARTY! If you'd like, you can add-on a 2 hour reception at my photography studio, just two blocks from the courthouse.
If you want to take things up a notch, you can also ask me about floral, decor, and catering options!
Got more questions? Don't worry, I got you!
