While they won’t wed until summer of 2011, Janelle & Chad met up with me for their engagement session this past week in Mankato (after a rain out session previously scheduled in Minneapolis). The spots that we found were some real gems! With a citrus theme in the works, we kept things bright but that didn’t stop me from suggesting that they pack their waders for a peaceful, relaxing end to the session. Thanks, you two, for arranging to reschedule. I know that next summer will be amazing! Embrace the planning phase and rest assured that I will capture every detail!

Jill & Andy…Engaged!

Congratulations to Jill and Andy…they’re wedding is set for October of 2010! With the engagement shoot behind them they will prepare their “Save the Date” cards and cross that off of their long list of preparations and details for their Wedding Day! Thank you, both, for inviting me to capture your sweet, relaxed nature. Looking forward to October!

I am so excited! I can only imagine how Jenny & Andy are feeling. Today they wed at Mt. Olivet in Minneapolis and the celebration will continue atop the IDS tower downtown at Windows. The day begins with snow so I’m going to pack an extra sense of humor and a smidge more patience in my camera bag! The weather will undoubtedly be much different from the engagement shoot that took place earlier in the year!

What I know for sure is, despite the weather…..this is gonna be a HOT one! Lots of love here, folks!

Jenny, Andy and I got together a couple of Sunday’s
ago in St. Paul to photograph their Engagement Session.
And even tho’ this link takes you to their entire shoot,
I thought I’d toss a few images up on the blog too.

Kate & Tom are getting married on July 25th of this year.
I’m photographing their wedding and earlier this week
we selected Tuesday to get together for their engagement
session at Lake Harriet in Minneapolis.

They are HUGE into fishing and so the plan was to bring
their boat along and get some fun shots out on the water.
God had other plans for us. Despite the cutest pink
tackle box I’ve ever seen!

With the end of the day approaching, the wind gusts reached
as much as 30 MPH that evening and into the next day.
Not optimal for any kind of shoot (unless you’re
shooting a regatta!). Yea, white caps all the way to shore!

We made an executive decision to park the boat, head down
the bird sanctuary path and grab some shots there, out of
the wind…

From there, with the wind still howling, we drove around the lake
and popped into Tryg’s to get some fun atmosphere images.
It was packed. The temp reached 97 degrees that day which ended up
shattering a 100+ year old record so everyone was out!
