What a year it was! So great to see so many familiar faces and meet new one’s! Next week I will take a look back at some of my favorite moments of the 2013 year and let you know what is in store for 2014! Enjoy your first full weekend of the 2014 year, I will be starting it off with a bang as I shoot two amazing winter weddings!!
It was the perfect August evening. Hard to remember now that the winter months are creeping closer! I LOVe, Love, love this couple. Upon meeting them I felt like I was meeting up with old friends and reminiscing about old times. Their session was just as fabulous. We ran in the waters of Lake Minnetonka, swirled on bridges and paths, and dashed over to Ben and Jerry’s to finish off the night with one of Angie’s favorite things… ice cream! Angie and Cory, I can not wait for your June wedding!!
What do a cute little puppy, wine, rain and love have in common? Amy and John!!
We headed out to the wonderful Woodland Hill winery for some photos among the vines when out of the blue a huge thundercloud came rushing in carring in high winds and lods of rain! Right before the doun pour, Amy and John were able to roam the vinyeard for a while as I snapped some photos, and then we ended up running as the rain came!
A week later we picked up where we had left off to a beautiful summer evening filled with sun and a cute pup to join us.
I can’t wait for this October wedding. I know it will be just as fun, and I am hoping much less adventurous!!
After moving out to Baltimore to go to nursing school, Greta met Tim. They were both at a birthday party for a mutual friend and hit it off instantly. The two lived together as friends and roomates even before they started dating, and decided to get married and move back to Greta’s home town of Minneapolis. Along their journey sweet Vera and Liam, twins, were born to the couple! I have the honor and privledge to photograph this amazing wedding next week and can not wait to share more!!
Happy Monday!! Here is just a sneaky from last night’s engagement session. Amy and John were awesome, and we just beat a huge downpour!!
Katie Nick’s June wedding at Seven Vines Vineyard was the perfect blend of timeless elegance and joyful celebration. From the classic black-and-white wedding party attire to the dreamy golden hour portraits among the vines, every detail felt effortlessly sophisticated.
Surrounded by their favorite people and endless love, these two kicked off married life in the most beautiful way.

Baby Mary has arrived and is already so deeply loved by Nicole and Aaron.
I’ve had the true honor of photographing this family since their oldest was born over 16 years ago, and watching their story grow through each new season has been something really special. From newborn snuggles to busy, full family life being invited back again and again is something I never take for granted.
This family is deeply rooted in the world of forage, county fairs, and raising and showing lambs and sheep, so it only felt fitting to include a little lamb hat for baby Mary’s first photos. A small nod to a big part of their life and traditions.
Welcome to the world, sweet girl
Spring soirée perfection.
Rob and Sarah’s wedding day was a beautiful blend of faith, family, and thoughtful design. Inspired by Monet’s garden paintings, their celebration was filled with soft spring colors, meaningful heirlooms, and intentional details at every turn.
After a joyful ceremony at Eagle Brook Church, surrounded by family and friends, they celebrated the night away at Silverwood Park with beautiful florals, heartfelt speeches, lakeside portraits, and dancing.
One of my favorite details? Sarah changed into her mother’s wedding dress for the reception, while flowers made from that same gown were sewn into her veil.
Congratulations, Rob and Sarah!
