Megan REALLY wanted an autumn engagement shoot. When we got the sudden burst of winter (which is known to happen in the midwest), we switched gears a tad. Who would have thought that we would get the beautiful autumn leaves that were still clinging on for dear life, along with the crisp, bright snow? While […]

Introducing Nicole and Patrick! They are getting married next fall down in the Twin Cities and were so excited to come ‘up north’ for their engagement shoot.

Nicole + Patrick || Joyful Autumn Engagement Session

When you have two people who each grew up in rural, Wisconsin towns, pick up everything and move to Florida so the bride can follow her dreams – you know this is a special kind of love. I first met Cydney and Adam back at Adam’s sister Kristin (and Mike’s) wedding last fall. They hired […]

I’ll start off with the fact that I just love Sammy and Chad. Not only are they sweet, hilarious, hard-working individuals, but together they are genuinely these qualities x10.

It’s been my ray of sunshine though this crazy time and I’ve been so grateful to have this amazing backdrop for my couples, including […]

With every wedding that was held or postponed since March or so, each couple had to agonize over which choice to make: to have it as planned, have it with great modifications, or postpone it until next year. They’ve had to weigh the cost implications, cutting guest lists and the heartbreak of some of their […]

Micaela + Ben || Northern MN Lake Wedding

Not to sound like a broken record here, but as with most of my 2020 weddings, Kalynn and Connor’s wedding day looked a bit different than they originally planned when we first met a year and a half ago. Their original plans included a swanky wedding at Northland Country Club to include all their friends […]
