A good wedding photographer knows how to stay out of the way but still catch the most intimate moments.  But this is TOO intimate . . .

A 30-year-old wedding photographer in Minnesota is facing charges for filming the bride NAKED while she was getting ready in her bridal suite.

He set up a hidden camera that recorded her in her underwear with her top exposed.  Police were able to identify the 27-year-old bride, who watched the footage and confirmed it was her.

The wedding was back in 2020 at a venue 90 miles south of Minneapolis.  Police only found out about it now because the photographer’s WIFE turned him in.

She gave them a thumb drive that had the video, plus more sexually explicit material on it.  They didn’t elaborate on what that other material is, but it sounds like it wasn’t an isolated incident.

The guy’s name is Mitchell Ringness, which is a great last name for a wedding photographer . . . too bad no one’s ever hiring him again.

His website is still up though.  It promises to provide “timeless yet captivating photos and videos that will do justice to your uniquely perfect love story.”

He’s due in court next week, facing one misdemeanor charge of “interfering with privacy.”  The maximum sentence is a $3,000 fine and one year in jail.
