Bacon | Minneapolis Food Photographer

This spring Graddy Photography and Grand View Lodge teamed up once again to create the ever impressive Grand View Dining Guide which features all the amazing restaurants and menu items.  We of course had a blast shooting all these wonderful dishes and of course sampling a few.  Be sure to swing into CRU and grab a BLT salad with candied bacon....yum!  Another big hit is the Duck and Waffle at the Lodge Dining Room and let's not forget the 20 oz. bone-in Ribeye!  If your hanging out by the beach make sure to grab some Mahi Mahi tacos or the Shrimp Po Boy.  Thanks so much everybody at Grand View Lodge for your hospitality and friendship, we look forward to many years of continued friendship and success! minnesota food photographer

Summer | Minnesota Commercial Photographer

This past week was a very busy week at Graddy Photography.  For starters, we had two wonderful weddings at Grand View Lodge in Nisswa, Minnesota.  Then a couple chill days at Grand View Lodge with the boat then it was off to work for our favorite commercial vendors.  We photographed a lot of tasty food and loads of other stuff for the resort.  Graddy Photography joined the marketing department of Grand View Lodge as a freelance photographer a little more than a year ago and we have been making big waves in both our respective industries, hospitality and the wedding industry.  We cannot thank you all enough for your continued support and appreciation of our work and we look forward to seeing you all again here shortly in the near future.  So if anybody is at Grand View Lodge this summer be sure to take a look around at the advertising, more than likely, their our shots!
