Vanessa and Sharri are not only two of the most gifted photographers, they are also two of the…read morekindest people we have ever met. Planning a long distance wedding is never easy, but checking in with the girls was always fun and easy. There was not one interaction with them where we did not end up laughing for some reason, including on our wedding day! I appreciated their planning beforehand with a questionnaire outlining all the details and information of the day (that helped me get organized myself!) along with their constant professionalism. For two incredibly awkward photo people (my husband and I), Vanessa's infectuous laugh and upbeat personality combined with Sharri's calming and collected demeanor, were able to bring out the best photos of both of us. Our photos are amazing, there are so many great ones that it's hard to pick which ones to frame! We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have outstanding photos taken, and also have some fun in the process. We will be in touch with these girls in the future without question!

We were married in Zihuatanejo, Mexico over spring break and had an amazing destination wedding. Sharri and Vanessa immediately put our family and friends at ease with their friendly attitude and were able to capture the event in such a beautiful and authentic way. Everyone who we send pictures to has commented on the artistic quality of photographs. We couldn't be happier with our experience at Satori and highly recommend them!

Each one of my 7 emails was replied to promptly and professionally. Her studio is beautiful and welcoming. She has snacks and beverages for families waiting as well. Most impressive were Angela's photography skills. She has clearly perfected her craft. She had the studio set to 85 degrees so that our newborn could be molded like jello into the many beautiful poses Angela had visioned. She had mini fans and sound machines strategically positioned around our baby to ensure she stayed sleeping throughout the shoot. I highly recommend Angela if you are looking for newborn pictures.

Not being religious and with my parent's backyard venue in mind, my husband and I wanted to hire an…read moreofficiant for our September 2012 wedding. We googled and compared reviews of local officiants. We wanted to hire someone that was affordable and able to direct a rehearsal. We got paired with Cara Tollefson through Minnesota Officiants. We had a sit down to meet Cara at a location that was convenient for the three of us. When we met Cara she gave us a lot of information and answered all of our many questions. We instantly got a good vibe from her. Although the cost of services was a little more than we had budgeted we recognized it was due to the fact that we wanted rehearsal time to be added in there. Cara didn't once pressure us to pay any kind of deposit but instead simply explained that if we wanted to pursue her services that we just needed to mail in a signed contract and a deposit. After we sent the deposit within the week she sent us a ceremony planner. This walked us through all the elements of the wedding with many options of each. With this planner we were able to pick and choose our readings, ritual, opening/closing remarks, etc. There was plenty flexibility to get as traditional or unique as we wanted. We opted for a simple and short non-denominatial ceremony. Cara was very responsive and helpful via email and even offered to meet in person as needed. Cara was absolutely fabulous!! The day before at the rehearsal we walked through everything and that was VERY helpful. I appreciate that she was willing to rehearse with us. She did a fabulous job of directing everyone. The ceremony felt so personal and everything she said was heartfelt. I'm sure she does a ton of weddings and it meant so much that she was genuinely happy and excited for us. She had an amazing energy and many people commented on what an wonderful job she did. Our wedding day was so special, it meant so much to have Cara there! I'm so happy we trusted our guts with our first meeting. She was absolutely fabulous and facilitated a beautiful and meaningful ceremony.

Our first meeting with Jim was at The Wilde Roast in NE (his recommendation) and we knew within five minutes that we wanted him to officiate our wedding ceremony. He was well-organized, amicably professional, and listened to our thoughts/concerns while providing great feed back. Exactly what we needed. We were looking for someone who seemed capable of delivering a seamless presentation. After only meeting a few times before our wedding day and without any prior rehearsal, Jim exceeded our highest expectations. He eliminated any and all worry from the entire process - allowing us to relax and focus on each other. Through thoughtful prepping and communication, he helped us to create a beautiful ceremony that accurately represented us as a couple and we couldn't be more happy with the results. Thanks Jim!
