Minneapolis Engagement Photography ~ Laura & Tim

Laura & Tim are the sweetest couple! I met up with them on one of the most beautiful winter days I have seen in a very long time. We all know that we have had a lack of snow this year so this specific day everything was covered in a beautiful coat of white frost. I could not believe my eyes when I looked out the window that morning and I was so excited that I had a photo shoot to get ready for! You will see what I mean when you start to scroll down. Thank you so much Laura & Tim, I cannot wait for your wedding in a couple months. I hope you enjoy the photos!!

Oh, check out the adorable signs designed by the fabulous Jen – owner of Appleberry’s Attic!!!

Minneapolis Engagement Photography ~ Taylor & Scott

Meet Taylor and Scott, I absolutely adore this couple!! They live in California so it was so nice to finally meet them for their engagement session! Scott is a California native and Taylor moved out there for school where they met! They are so sweet to one another am sure the photos will be proof of that! Because Scott is originally from California it was so much fun to see his reaction when it started to snow at the end of the session. Enjoy the photos!!

Rush City Engagement Photography ~ Sara & Michael

This blog post is quite overdue but I am so excited to share it with you! I met up with Sara and Michael last fall for their engagement session at Michaels cabin on Rush Lake. They spend quite a bit of time there so we decided that this was the perfect location for their session because it is so special to them. We couldn’t have asked for better weather that evening and it was absolutely gorgeous with all of the fall leaves on the trees and ground. Sara and Michael are so sweet and I cannot wait for their wedding this fall!

Wedding Highlights | 2011

Wow, I cannot believe another AMAZING year has gone by! This year began with a lot of traveling and led into so many fabulous weddings!! In January I had the privilege of attending the first ELEVATE Workshop; a super inspiring photography workshop that took place in Palm Springs, CA. I could not have asked for a better getaway in the middle of January! In February I traveled to Las Vegas for the WPPI Photography convention. While I was there I was able to participate in two amazing photo shoots. One was on the rooftop of the Trump Hotel and the other took place in an airplane hanger right in the middle of the desert! In March we took a family vacation to Playa Del Carmen Mexico and I was able to do an engagement session on the beach, that was so much fun!! Then wedding season began and I was so lucky to get to travel to Sonoma, CA for a wedding at a gorgeous vineyard! Also, in October I collaborated with so many amazing wedding vendors on a beautiful fall styled photo shoot. I could not be happier with the results and it was published on the MN Bride Blog!!

Now that the year is complete it is so exciting to look back on all of the beautiful weddings I had the privilege of photographing and the incredible couples that I have met! If you know me at all you know that I absolutely love my job and I feel so fortunate to get to be a part of the most important day of a couples life. I have put together a collection of images from the year and am so excited to share it with you! I cannot wait to see what is in store for 2012!!
