Jill and Tony's Wedding

Jill and Tony got married at Centennial Lakes in Edina, MN. What a beautiful day, and better yet, what a beautiful bride and groom. Jill- You and Tony were such a great couple to work with and I truly enjoyed the day. You guys were awesome, the whole party and family! Congrats again!

Denae & Jordan's Wedding

Denae and Jordan married in Burnsville, MN. I must say she had the most stunning dress ever! I had the joy of photographing her getting ready as well as the formals while her uncle would be photographing everything else. So since formals is all we had to do, Myself and the whole wedding party spent 3 hours at Cross Town Park doing some of the most fun and most creative and candid formals ever. With no time crunch we really had fun with it, there was no rush, and everyone was really relaxed and having a great time with it and the pictures really show it! Congratulations Denae & Jordan!

When I got there Denae had this cute little bride tank on for her "getting ready" shots, how cute!

And here is the dress! A corset seamed, strapless bodice with asymmetrical draping, waterfall ruching shaped the slim a-line with a chapel length train. Wow is all I can say! What a gorgeous dress.......even her groom commented over and over on how he loved the dress. She was stunning and he was stunned!

Now for the dawning of the dress.....I always have mom and the bridesmaids do a 360 around the bride to photograph this special moment. As Denae poked her head out of the dress everyone was just roaring laughing to include Denae.

Mom adds her special touch and fastens the corset. Both Denae and mom are already getting teary eyed about this special day to begin....

Now it's time to go meet her groom...Everyone is peeking and cannot wait to see his face...

It's just about show time.....

Denae was thinking when she brought kleenex with her to see her groom for the first time! What a sweet and emotional moment. He was definetly stunned to see how great she looked!

The stained glass in this church was amazing. I just photographed them candidly as they enjoyed a little time alone before their big day.

Thier aisle runner was printed with their names and wedding date on it, this was pretty cool, I've never saw one of these before.

Now it's off to the park to begin our photo shoot. Denae hops into the Mustang and as Jordan closes the door I catch a glimpse of them gazing at eachother as I can see the reflection.

Katie & Troy Got Married and Beat the Rain!!

Katie and Troy got married in Lakeville at Bracketts Golf Club. The whole place was dawned in beautiful white linen and everything was perfect. We had a little scare because the day began with rain storms, but it turned out to be a perfect day.

Kari & Tom's Wedding

Kari & Tom getting down on the farm! Wow! What a hot day! Kari and Tom got married at Pinehaven Farm in Wyoming, MN. They had both their ceremony and their reception there. What a nice place to accomodate an outdoor wedding.

Kari & Joe's Wedding

Kari & Joe got married on this beautiful day in Eagan. The day was perfect, a little sunny, but the whole bunch was roaring to go and ready to party.

Jeremy & Julie tied the knot!

Julie and Jeremy got married at Falls Creek Park in Faribault, Minnesota. It was just as perfect as a movie featuring a wedding in the park. Jeremy and Julie were VERY laid back, I think they must have been ready for this day for a while now! Everyone was talking how they're the most perfect couple and I could definitely see it at their wedding. Congrats Julie and Jeremy!

Digit & K.C. (Julie & Jeremy's Dogs) were very special attendents in this wedding. They were all about the photographs and if they had it their way, they were going to be in every single photograph!! Getting them to pose or to stay was no issue here! Good Dog!

Melinda & Eric got Hitched!

Melinda and Eric's big day was a hit! The weather was absolutely beautiful and the sun was out, it couldn't have been a better day!

It was blast photographing them, they were constantly all smiles and a very laid back couple which makes the day so much less stressful. Everyone was full of humor and laughter and it made for some great photos.

Doing some of the formal shots down at the lake was a bit windy, but it was so pretty down there, we just had to get a few! This was a blast, beers were cracking, swings were flying and everyone was in a great mood ready for the party to start.

I'm telling you! This was a very funny group! They had me cracking up mostly the whole time. Melinda was such a dear too, making sure I got food and everything, their hospitality was very generous.

I love this photo of them!



Okay Eric...Is this your something borrowed.... Or your something new?? Does Melinda know you have those on?! Hehe! LOL

Melinda looks stellar! Her dress was so sparkely and just beautiful on her.

The staind glass in this church was so beautiful, very colorful and it really added some great highlights to their photos.
Since Melinda and Eric were seeing each other before the ceremony, we scheduled a special time they could see each other for the first time and I was able to photograph the expressions on their faces. I think they were both in shock because when they saw each other I don't think they knew what to do with each other! They both stood there in awe, and I think someone had to yell, "Kiss her Eric!" Haha!

Taking a Moment.......Up North at the Cabin

I went up North this past weekend, it was real quiet & peaceful. The leaves were turning colors and the view of the lake was just so beautiful. I like to walk on the dock of the lake, and just collect my thoughts. I realized I just don't "take a moment" often enough, we get so busy and caught up, we forget about enjoying certain things around us.

Kevin & Christen's Wedding 9.14.07

Kevin & Christie got married in a beautiful Basillica style church and had their reception at the Kikugawa at Riverplace in Minneapolis, a very well known Sushi place. It was beautiful. This couple was so nice, at one point thru the night they told me to take a break and eat some sushi- I love sushi, so that was an absolute treat for me! What a nice couple and what a beautiful Friday night it was for a wedding.
