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 […]

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 […]

How amazing is it that the backyard wedding has made a comeback?! In the spirit of continuing on with life during this pandemic, I have witnessed such amazing communities coming together to love on the brides and grooms of 2020! Anna & Corey’s day overflowed with lavish attention to detail – I absolutely cannot get […]

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 […]

As the storm of COViD-19 barreled through the United States, Trisha & Tyler chose to keep their wedding date and downscale their celebration in Faribault. Can I just say how proud I am of them?

Breaking the COViD static with news of a Minnesota Engagement Session! Hallelujah! Northfield, the governor lifted the Stay-At-Home order! Photography can commence! I know everyone will agree that it’s been a hard slog through quarantine. Do not hang out with friends. Do not hug others, do not pass go, and do not collect $200. (Anyone […]

There’s nothing quite like a Northfield winter wedding. In the merry hall of the Armory Square Event Center, two newlyweds dance their first dance. Like so many couples before them, the song plays and they faithfully swing to the beat. At this point in most weddings, guests may find their minds wandering as the song […]

What a joy to share this Owatonna Fairgrounds wedding with you today! I’ll begin my story with entering the venue. I pulled into the Owatonna Foundation Building still praying for sunshine. The chill and misty damp just wasn’t what I wanted for a bride on her wedding day! (Seriously, Minnesota – it was just the […]

Many wedding ceremonies feature music of some kind, and often the bride and groom sing along with their guests. But on Sunday, June 30th, 2019, the promenade of the Gardens of Castle Rock was not hosting merely music: it was hosting worship of the One True God. The bride and groom led the way with […]

Chris kept wiping away tears with his right hand, then stopping to murmur how beautiful she looked–it was his first glance at his bride ready for the wedding day. […]
