A Whitetail Woods Wedding– doesn’t that just sound so romantic? Not only is it alliterative (three w’s in a row!), but it makes me feel as though deer should be prancing in meadows with golden light spilling over the prairie. Kate & Justin’s wedding felt like that– joyful, authentic, and filled with sunflowers. These two […]

Friends, this Apple Valley wedding will make you smile! Angy & Mario crafted a day as stress-free and beautiful as they are themselves. You may remember their engagement session where I spoke highly of their ability to be chill. Well, this truth was proven again. Showing that once again, coronavirus can alter but not cancel […]

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 […]

Oh friends! Sarah & Ross wove the most beautiful engagement session into being! Perhaps I am biased, because Sarah chose my favorite flower to adorn her beautiful tresses (brownie points if you can name it!)  It is never a good thing to arrive late, but if you must arrive late, let it be because you braided blooms into […]

She admitted she didn’t know exactly what to say for her toast during the reception… so she decided she would sing her toast! Moana and Frozen soundtracks were revamped into a […]

Driving through the glory of Minnesota country, I knew this Waltham wedding would surprise me either with dark clouds or glorious sunshine. Every storm was just miles to the side of my drive– but the rain did not fall on us all day! If I had to put a slogan to Tya & Devan’s wedding, it […]
