Josh Guth
OWNER/PHOTOGRAPHER
I’m Josh Guth, your Minnesota Lifestyle/Documentary style Wedding and Dark and Moody Boudoir/Implied Nude photographer! Whether it’s your entire wedding or an hour session, my objective is to make your experience in front of the camera as comfortable and f*cking awesome as possible! I pride myself in using poses that look natural and candid with a strong focus in capturing true emotion. Nothing is more important to me than the real you! If you’re goofy and awkward, I want to capture it, if you’re so crazy in love with your significant other, I want to see it shine!
You should have as much fun as possible and not have to worry about anything else!
My Wedding Day Approach
Bride + Groom Poses
You don’t need to worry about poses! I use poses that look natural and candid, making sure you are paying more attention to each other rather than the camera that’s a few feet away from you. Your wedding day should show the connection between you and your partner, not catching an emotionless photo.
Bridal Party Poses
During your bridal party portraits, I’m your hype man! I’m going to make them cheer for you, hug you, show all the love. The goal is for everyone to participate in your big day and continue to be there for you! I also ENCOURAGE out-of-pocket poses and ideas from your bridal party! Anything to keep the mood happy and fun!
The Rest of the Day
During the other parts of your wedding day, I take a documentary approach. I hang out in the background and capture real moments. I try to get at least one photo of everyone at your wedding.
Your wedding is about you and your partner. You should enjoy your day, live in the moment and not have to worry about those moments not getting captured.

Josh Guth
Owner/Photographer
Hey! I'm Josh, owner and photographer at Josh G Photography!
Here's a little about me:
I proposed to my wife in 2021, in front of a lighthouse in Cape Elizabeth, Maine and we got married in New Prague, MN in 2023! My wife and I love to travel and bring out kayaks to head out on the water whenever we get the opportunity.
I grew up with Harry Potter, Pokémon, and horror movies and can talk about these topics all day. My current total listening time on Audible is 2 months, 10 days, 22 hours, and 54 minutes (I love me some audio books.) And my favorite type of food would probably be Mexican or Tex-Mex!
What brings me to wedding photography?
I am a very, I guess, nostalgically sensitive person, which is why I love photography so much. The ability to look at an image taken years ago and suddenly remember everything that happened leading up to that photo, can bring such a powerful emotion that it stops you in your tracks. I am here for that emotion. I want my photographs to bring on the waves of joy, eagerness, nostalgia, the first look anticipation and happiness that you're marrying your best friend. When I take a photograph, emotion is what I'm here to capture.
If you're looking for someone fun, who is there for you throughout your wedding and/or boudoir experience, please reach out! I'd love to chat and get to know you!

Josh has gone above and beyond my expectations. I had him do a boudoir shoot for me. I have not felt this good about myself in years and Josh made me feel so beautiful and was able...
to capture my aesthetic inside and out. He made me feel comfortable with and without clothing while taking the photos. He doesn't push for you to do anything but has you get as comfortable as you'd like. I'm so excited to show my fiancé the photos. Josh was able to bring my photo ideas to life and was able to work with me when I told him I didn't like certain aspects of my body. If you do not want your photos to turn out amazing don't book this guy, cause he was 10/10 with making me look like a goddess! Josh, I cannot say this enough, thank you for all the work you've done! I will be back for more!

Josh and his wife Liz were AMAZING to work with. We hired him for both our engagement photos and wedding day. Josh went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable and g...
ot the photos we wanted, even driving a few hours to help us do some location scouting. He's great at coming up with poses while also helping you execute your own ideas.
Josh is innovative, jovial, and open to wacky ideas. If you're looking for someone who can capture your fun quirks while also making you look elegant and beautiful, Josh is your guy. We did a piñata with our wedding party and he did SUCH a good job capturing our glee and the action shots were well composed and hilarious. At the same time, he excels at finding those quiet and intimate moments. Our first look photos are some of our favorites.
We were also impressed with how attentive Josh was. He was always on time, communicated clearly, and responded quickly to emails and texts. He helped us figure out day-of logistics and work through some scheduling concerns. Additionally, he is fairly priced and the pricing packages are transparent and clearly laid out on his website. We will absolutely be booking him for anniversary or even friend/family sessions. We can't recommend him enough.

I could not recommend Josh Guth more as your photographer. Josh was our engagement photographer, wedding photographer, and professional headshot photographer. Each time, he blew us...
away with his natural knack with a camera, his people skills, and amazing efficiency when it came to editing photos/getting them back to us. I would never go to anyone else! He takes the time to get to know his clients and their style, and he is amazing at his craft. He is very easy to work with and helps capture natural moments with his clients. 1,000% recommend! You won't be disappointed.
