I met Sally & Matt for their fall engagement session at the quarries in Waite Park, MN.  We walked, hiked and climbed until it got dark and I had the greatest time getting to know them, learning their story, and talking about their wedding.  Being with them and photographing them was effortless and comfortable and I am so excited for their August wedding at Cragun’s resort.  I hope these photos portray how fun, affectionate and happy these two are:

Sally will be a beautiful August bride:

Some photographers might grumble when it comes to photographing family members… Not me.  It’s one of the best parts of my job.  My cousin’s wedding, my older sister’s pregnancy, my neice’s first days of life, and now my little sister’s engagement.  It’s my greatest joy to photograph the people I love most.

Mackenzie is my little sister and one of my best friends.  We’ve shared a bedroom, we’ve shared secrets, we’ve shared life’s joys and life’s sorrows.   There are no words to describe how much I love her.  She’s hardworking, she’s clever and her heart must be made of pure gold. 

Aaron is the perfect man for her.  Our family loves him and welcomes him with open arms.  Sometimes when us sisters & cousin’s get together, we’re just plain weird.  Somehow he continues to come back to each get-together, trip, and family dinner.  We already consider him a part of our family, and on May 7, 2011, it will be official.

I love you both and I’m thankful you both found what you were looking for.

This is such a fun and busy time of year…wrapping up another wedding season for 2010 and meeting brand new couples for 2011.  I am so excited for Mattie & Tim’s September wedding at Breezy Point, next year.  We met for a fun, fall engagement session in Uptown  last weekend and I immediately was crazy about them.   They are sweet and funny and I could have photographed them for hours… Luckily for me, next year I’ll be able to! 

Matt & Rachel became engaged while cross country skiing last winter at the Northland Arboretum, so it only seemed appropriate that we have their engagement session there too!  We met on a warm (buggy!) summer night and had a blast walking around the beautiful grounds at the arboretum and getting to know each other.   I love their story as it parellels Sean’s and mine… a little match.com and a move up north can definitely lead to love.  I am so excited to be photographing their September wedding.  Fall is just around the corner! 

Bridgette & Matt are getting married on June 18, 2011 in Crosslake Town Square.  We met on an early Sunday morning and raced through some clouds and raindrops to capture their engagement!  

I am so honored to be photographing your wedding, Matt & Bridgette.  Thank you for a fun time and I’ll see you in June!

Bridgette & Matt will be married on these stairs in just 11 months!

A photo shoot in the big city! I love it!

I met Anne & Steve in St. Paul for their engagement session last week, and we had sooo much fun despite the 93 degree temperature.  We had a great night together comparing our love stories from Match.com.  Anne & Steve will be married in September in St. Paul with a reception at the Science Museum.  I can hardly wait!

Thank you for trusting me with your wedding day, Anne & Steve…  If your engagment session was any indication, September 25th will be a fabulous day!

I love my job!  I get to photograph beautiful brides:

You can’t have a photo session in St. Paul without going to Mickey’s Diner!  We stopped for a quick rootbeer & a chance to cool off…
