Min founded Min Enterprises Photography in 2010, and their portfolio includes many large-scale events like Pride, Queertopia, Take Back the Night, marriage amendment rallies, and the National Conference on Creating Change. Min has remarked that approximately 90% of their work is underpaid. Min's work focuses on grassroots groups that otherwise could not afford professional level photography and are often overlooked regarding mainstream publicity.[1] They were invited by Mu Performing Arts to a conversation about the Ordway's production of Miss Saigon and later became involved in a campaign critical of the production.[3] Min documented the Black Lives Matter protest at the Mall of America and created a photo essay that appeared in Gazillion Voices Magazine.[4]
