This stunning Lakeville Wedding will transport you to the best of winter wonderland– where snowy and cozy make the perfect blend. Eva & Zachary said I do in the cozy interior of The Chart House, with even their energetic pup Bubba in attendance! The Cold & the Cozy In view of 2020’s limitations, what better […]

Amanda & Anthony’s Glenhaven wedding was set for the most beautiful fall weather! The golden tones in the trees made a positively striking setting for this bride & groom’s first look. (And certainly a much warmer setting than Amanda & Anthony’s engagement session in the snow!) The First Look Amanda chose a sweet bridge at […]

I am absolutely thrilled to write about Chloe & Taylor’s wedding at The Grand! This excitement came from the ashes of a devastating day in March. Just days before their wedding date, coronavirus forced The Grand to call with horrible, devastating news: there would be no wedding that Saturday. COViD-19 lockdowns began. The shock of such […]

How amazing is it that the backyard wedding has made a comeback?!

Engagement sessions are such a wonderful icebreaker for photographers–and what easier way than with a sweet puppy! Angy & Mario’s engagement photos reflect the one topic I love to educate my clients about: stepping into confidence that yes, you can look good on camera. The number one concern for these two was not that their wedding day would […]

As a photographer, taking a friend out for a Lakeville anniversary session couldn’t be met with anything but joy! Add in golden light, a hillside, a gorgeous couple, and WOW. Why am I still surprised how beautifully Minnesota can kind of look like Ireland? Lakeville Anniversary Photos Toni & Dusty made my work so easy. As […]

As a photographer, you know your clients are truly invested when they book you for an engagement session in January (in Minnesota!) Usually the morbidly low temperatures around here keep visitors out of our state, but this year we had exactly freezing weather! (And those in Minnesota clap their hands! 32 degrees is balmy!) I am […]

The photograph above is definitely one of my favorite wedding photos – the joy of saying “I do!” (This is basically what my happy dance looks like, except Evan wins in the height department!) As a solo-prenuer (aka the only one behind the face of Jennifer Sanders Photography), I am so often smiling behind my […]

Nothing can be more thrilling to me than a hometown wedding–especially one in Northfield, Minnesota! (Seriously, local is best!) Selena & Kyle’s  Church of St. Dominic’s wedding took stage on one of the last gorgeous days of fall, and how the sun shone! One of my favorite moments took place during the reception at the […]

Driving from the Twin Cities to Gustavus Adolphus College isn’t a short journey – especially if you are a teacher in the fall with a whole new classroom! When I first met Ezra and Molly, I could instantly see the first grade teacher inside her, especially the kind voice & the thoughtful way of speaking. […]
