HI, I’M GRACE

MY STORY

I am passionate about capturing your most special moments in an artful, timeless way. Being able to grab those small in-between moments is a joy to me. I have always loved taking photos and seeing the beauty of things. I took a few photography classes in high school, got my first camera, and fell in love with capturing people.

Being from Minnesota, I like the simple things in life … neighborhood walks, morning sunlight, and time spent with Jesus. People say I am a kind-hearted and gentle soul who brings peace in the chaos while serving others well.

I think names can be so beautiful and hold so much meaning. My name, Grace August, means to increase blessing. My goal is to leave people feeling God's love always.

my speciality

My specialty is capturing small in-between moments that you can feel. Capturing your love authentically in the little moments, the unposed, the inbetween. Blending the editorial and the candid to create artful, timeless photos.

My favorite verse

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”

-‭‭Psalms‬ ‭23‬

CELEBRATION

“Grace is the kindest, most genuine, and down to earth person, and having someone like that to be by our side throughout our engagement and wedding day was priceless.  She was extremely accommodating and made our engagement shoots feel so fun and personal.  Neither my husband nor I are very experienced in having our pictures taken professionally and she made us feel so comfortable the whole time.
