We did a small micro wedding in an art gallery and she was so flexible in working with us even though all the details didn't come together until right before! I would definitely recommend.

McKenna did an amazing job wrangling even the rowdiest family members for extended family photos…read more She did a wonderful job reminding us to stay on schedule, but was relaxed and flexible enough to let us enjoy every moment. Her attention to detail was spectacular. She was accommodating through multiple postponements due to Covid-19. She brought fun energy to both our engagement pictures and wedding day while still remaining very professional. All expectations were stated and communication was easy. Most of all, our photos are so dreamy- they capture all of the sentimental and funny moments of our big day in a way that is polished but still so authentic to us.

Kara did an amazing job with my professional headshot-style photo shoot…read more I wasn't even sure what I was looking for, so she took some time at the beginning to discus the traditional versus "new wave" style of business pictures. With LinkedIn and social media being such a big deal now a days, you better look profesh, and you better look good while you're doing it. She made everything stress free for me and guided me through the process. I'm not used to professional pictures, but she made me feel comfortable and confident during the shoot. Tried on some different outfits with some different backgrounds at her studio (which is lovely and nicely decorated) The day was painless and casual, she had a quick turnaround process and gave me a stunning final result, including a great editing process for some general blemish removal, etc. Would highly recommend Kara not just for her professional photography skills, but her personality and her ability to make you feel at ease. She handles family portraits, weddings and adorable baby shoots, too!

Kara has since photographed other incredibly…read morememorable moments in my life, she has an uncanny ability to capture the most beautiful images. She took our maternity photos and even when we were shooting the photos & she'd show me a sneak peek of the back of the camera, I was floored at the lighting and beauty she captured (made me feel way prettier than I think I really am!) and those were the raw images! I was so happy with our maternity shoot, and can't wait to see the pictures of our newborn boy!!! She is the BEST!

We couldn't have asked for a better photography team than Matt Mason Photography for our wedding…read moreday! From the very beginning, communication with Matt was clear and easy. He was always quick to respond, professional, and genuinely excited to capture our day. The automated check ins really kept us on track and easy to follow during all of the planning chaos. On the wedding day itself, both Matt Mason and Ben Hanson made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which is not always easy to do! They gave us just the right amount of guidance without making anything feel forced, so all of our photos look natural and full of joy. Both of them were calm, kind, and fun to be around, which helped us relax and actually enjoy the photo process. The results are stunning and we'll treasure these photos forever. We are so grateful for all the effort, attention to detail, and care they put into making sure everything was perfect. If you're looking for photographers who are talented, easy to work with, and truly go above and beyond, Matt Mason Photography is the one to book!

My husband and I hired Matt and his team for our Indian/American fusion wedding in Minneapolis, MN…read more I was familiar with his work through a friend and the quality/value of other photographers I was considering in the Twin Cities just didn't compare. It was definitely worth it to us to have Matt travel to MN - we got an 8 hour package, fusion film, and flush mount album. Matt and Matt put us, our families, and bridal party very much at ease throughout the day, and were very considerate of cultural and personality needs. They gave us latitude on certain photos/poses we wanted but also gave us great ideas. I would highly recommend Matt Mason Photography for any event!

Our first experience was when she was taking portraits for a relative's 50th anniversary celebration. She was taking individual family portraits and caught some amazing pictures of my family. Not only did she catch some great posed pictures, but she also captured some priceless candid moments of my husband & myself as well as my sons in between poses which show the true essence of each of our personalities and relationships. They are truly amazing and when I saw them, they instantly became my favorite pictures that she took. She has a gift for capturing the most precious, genuine moments. After that experience, my son insisted that Jen be the one to take his senior pictures because she made the whole previous photography session so comfortable. Jen brought enthusiasm and a sense of adventure with her for his Senior Session. She took her time and made sure my son was confortable with the shots. She even climbed into the craziest of spots to apease my son's request to have shots done my an inacessible river...she truly should have charged hazard pay but insead joked about the climb and was all in for the adventure! The images were incredible and the day was full of laughter; it was so relaxed and fun. Jen once again went the extra mile for us and it was truly a day of treasured memories which resulted in precious images. Jen is truly incredible and if you want someone who is willing to listen to you as well as honestly work with you, Jen is the person you are looking for. I recommend her with the highest level of confidence and satisfaction. She is so easy to work with and we have amazing pictures to treasure for a lifetime! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

She had multiple ideas for shooting my daughter's senior photos and we especially loved the "urban" look idea she shot in the Historic Third Ward. She made my daughter feel very comfortable as she never had to pose for a professional photographer before and was not sure what to do. Jen was quick to get our proofs to us and it was convenient to go on her website to view all of them. I like that she even takes care of sending the year book photo to my daughter's high school. I highly recommend Jen/Red Petal for any professional photography needs.

Abbie did a great job of capturing our annual family photos!…read more My son has a terrible habit of over smiling in photos so Abbie had to use her considerable skill and experience to distract him and otherwise get him looking natural. She also went the extra mile by helping us include our family dog, Jack, in some of the photos. I think we lucked out with a perfect sunny crisp fall day which helped but we ended up with the best collection of family photos we've ever had taken. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing photos who wants to work with a professional and experienced photographer who also has a great demeanor and personality.

I loved being able to sign up online for a time and then again for photo pick up. She has different packages for every budget and allows for bringing a sibling to the shoot for much needed family shots, for a reasonable charge. She also has this great system for filling out contracts, sending payment, asking all your dumb 'what should they wear?!' Questions and gives lots of helpful information about make-up and glasses and everything else so you get a great photo. Most importantly, my daughter was at ease with her immediately so our photos are natural looking and beautiful. She puts time in up front getting to know the subject (and parent!) so she knows what the goal is and the personality and then tailors the shoot as needed. Highly recommended.
