Owatonna Wedding Photographer

Paquin Studio provides a skilled and artistic photographer who genuinely cares about your day. Your photographs will tell the story of your wedding as it unfolds, from elegant getting ready and formals, to the special candid moments throughout getting ready, the ceremony and the first dance at the reception.

This past February my husband and I got married, and I called upon Cheryl in the freezing cold of southern MN. She was a warm ray of sunshine. Making sure to be at every important moment and capture the shots I REALLY wanted. I still cry at my wedding photos — Sarah
