Hi, I'm Corbyn Young!
Minneapolis family and wedding photographer,
passionate about capturing authentic moments that reflect the true emotions and unique stories of every individual, so those memories can be cherished forever.
Let’s work together!
I am a red-headed giggly book and plant lover who lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota with my husband, Carl-Erik and our spunky orange cat, Oliver.
I’m an English major and former preschool teacher, turned family and wedding photographer who graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College in 2020. I fell in love with photography back in high school, but it wasn’t until my college photography classes that I found myself truly picturing doing it full-time.
Here I am, years later, living my dream—capturing the love, laughter, and beautiful stories of families and couples!
Vision
The name Freckled & Framed Photography comes from something very personal to me—my freckles! As a child with freckled skin and red hair, I often felt a bit out of place. But as I grew older, I began to embrace those differences, recognizing that they were part of what made me unique. As a photographer, I aim to capture not just the look of my clients, but the unique qualities that make each family, couple and celebration truly special.
Image Style
My style is authentic and documentary, with gentle guidance and direction. While capturing images I take an honest and relaxed approach, leading with prompts over poses to capture my clients true selves. I feel that posing can sometimes feel intimidating and prompts loosen the mood and allow the real emotions to shine!
My editing style is warm, but true to color to achieve a timeless and authentic look.
Snap! Fun facts you didn’t see coming
Born and raised in Minnesota, I’m proud to call this beautiful state home. There’s nothing like a perfect snowy day, hockey games (I played for 15 years!), and lazy summer afternoons spent on the lake. If I could live anywhere, it would be in a cozy cottage in Iceland, surrounded by waterfalls, wildflowers, and glaciers. I was lucky enough to spend a month there during college, and I never wanted to leave! If photography didn’t steal my heart, I’d probably be a veterinarian. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me curled up on the couch, lost in a video game, snuggling my cat while diving into a romance novel, hanging out with friends, or cheering on Minnesota sports teams. My comfort movies and shows? Definitely Twilight, Gilmore Girls, Little House on the Prairie, and let’s be real, I’ve watched every episode of Friends at least five times. And for the record, my spirit animal is an otter, and cheesy fries are the way to my heart.
