Aaron + Katie's Engagement / Butter Cafe / Lake Calhoun

There's a special thing that happens when someone loves your photography so much the very first words in an email go something like this...

"I really want you to be my photographer, you are so gifted, I just love your work."

There is an appreciation and trust in those words that just fuels passion and excitement to work and create. Katie and Aaron are these people.  Thank you guys, so much. It was such a joy to hang out with you and I'm really excited to be a guest at your wedding, with camera in hand.

Collin + Ashley's Engagement / Minnehaha Park / Lake Hiawatha

I have been so blessed with amazing couples that are really genuine in front of the camera. This was another HOT engagement session in the 90's and tons of humidity...and tons of mosquitos. Didn't even phase them! Thanks everyone, I'm just blown away that you keep visiting this blog and supporting me!

Tim + Kelsey's Wedding / Moir Park / Bloomington, MN

SUCH A GREAT WAY TO START MY 2012 WEDDING SEASON!  WHILE PLAYING FRISBEE GOLF AT MOIR FOR ONE OF OUR MEETINGS, I WAS JUST BLOWN AWAY BY HOW COOL THIS LOCATION COULD BE.  THE ACTUAL WEDDING DAY WENT REALLY WELL.  THE WEATHER WAS BEAUTIFUL AND THE PEOPLE AND FAMILIES WERE JUST GREAT PEOPLE TO BE AROUND ALL DAY.  AFTER THE RECEPTION ENDED, TIM AND KELSEY MET UP WITH ME FOR A BRIEF PORTRAIT SESSION.  I'M SO GLAD THIS WORKED OUT!  A TIME FOR THE BRIDE AND GROOM TO GET AWAY AND BE TOGETHER WITHOUT THE DISTRACTIONS OF THE DAY CAN BE SO REWARDING...HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TO ALL MY COUPLES!  TO EVERYONE VISITING...THANKS FOR SUPPORTING ME AND KEEPING UP WITH THIS BLOG.  I AM ALWAYS HUMBLED BY YOUR INTEREST AND EXCITEMENT IN MY WORK.  HERE YAH GO, MEET TIM AND KELSEY!
