Justin Graddy | Owner & Creative Director, Buffalo Media Group

Justin Graddy is the Owner and Creative Director of Buffalo Media Group, a Minnesota-based photography and video production company specializing in hospitality, tourism, and destination storytelling.

With a strong focus on Minnesota’s travel and hospitality industry, Justin works alongside visitor bureaus, chambers of commerce, resorts, lodges, tourism organizations, and locally owned businesses to create compelling visual content that inspires people to explore, stay, and experience a destination.

Through professional photography, cinematic video production, drone imagery, and destination-focused storytelling, Justin helps communities and hospitality businesses showcase more than simply where they are—he captures what it feels like to be there. From lake resorts and small-town Main Streets to outdoor recreation, dining, events, attractions, and four-season travel experiences, his work is designed to tell the larger story of a destination.

Justin has built Buffalo Media Group around a deep appreciation for Minnesota and the independent businesses that make its tourism industry unique. He is particularly passionate about working with family-owned resorts and hospitality businesses, helping them compete through professional imagery and authentic storytelling that reflects their character, history, and sense of place.

His approach combines commercial photography and filmmaking with a documentary-inspired style, creating content that can be used across tourism campaigns, websites, social media, advertising, editorial features, visitor guides, and other marketing platforms.

Through Buffalo Media Group, Justin continues to partner with destinations throughout Minnesota to strengthen their visual identity, promote local tourism, support hospitality businesses, and give travelers a reason to discover what makes each community worth visiting.
