Hello! My name is Bryan!

Me (Custom)

Hi, Name's Bryan.  In case you didn't notice I spell my name with a "y".  I'm one of the new guys on the Rivets & Roses team and I'd love to introduce myself.

I'm a Minnesota native and I love this beautiful city, I enjoy being outdoors and an love a good time. If I'm not shooting couples and families, you can find me documenting my life's adventures. There is nothing like the first few hard cranks of a great bike trail, or the last few miles of a paddle deep in the heart of the boundary waters.

I love capturing the moments in life that are made to be shared and held onto for a lifetime. Naturally weddings are such a huge part of everyone's adventure through life and there are moments that should never be forgotten.  When I have the opportunity to share a couples special day with them I do what it takes to make sure I capture all the special moments that they can look back on and enjoy forever.

I am so happy to be part of the Rivets & Roses team As this year continues I encourage interaction; I want you all to get involved. Do you have a question about what lens I used? Why I shot something one way vs. another? Want to collaborate on a shoot? ASK ME!

It's those little moments on the big day. For @rivetsandroses photographer @tksloane, photography allows her to give people the gift of being seen, of being met where they're at in a moment.
