Justin and Dani – engaged!

Meet Justin and Dani…they originally met in high school, were good friends for years and finally realized that they were completely meant for each other! We began their engagement session at Minnehaha falls park and then headed over to St. Anthony Main for a few final pictures. Enjoy!

Thanks Dani and Justin, we enjoyed your company and the relaxed pace in which you enjoy life. We look forward to celebrating your marriage with you in December!

Seth and Laura – engaged!

Saturday afternoon we met up with Seth and Laura down by the stone arch bridge for their engagement session. I love to see couples who are in love and love to have fun and laugh together! Laura and Seth were a delight to photograph! We were very lucky to have temps in the 20s and almost no wind…it made being outside so much easier! Here’s the lovely couple!

Laura’s jacket is oh so wonderful – I wish I had one like it, but I think I have enough coats as it is!

It was even warm enough to find a few puddles of liquid water (as opposed to the frozen water that is quite ubiquitous these days). I love reflections!

We went inside at the end of the session to do a few without coats. Inside we found this fabulous old elevator! 

Thank you Laura and Seth, we look forward to your wedding day!

Brandon and Kate – engaged!

Brandon and Kate knew from the moment we first met with them, that they wanted to take their engagement pictures in the St. Anthony Main area. It’s a place they love to frequent when they have time and it’s where Brandon proposed. It was a cold and rainy day in October, but Kate and Brandon were willing to make the best of it anyway!We began at Vic’s, the restaurant Brandon and Kate visited just after the big question!

From there we roamed the area taking pictures and trying to stay warm and dry!

Christina and Zak – engaged!

We have been totally behind in our blog posting and our processing through engagement sessions. I can’t really say we are getting caught up…but we are moving forward! For all of you who are waiting to see your pictures from your sessions, I apologize for the stress we have placed on your patience, and I thank you for the patience you have had with us! We just got a new computer over the weekend (she’s a beauty!) and upgraded our older computer; so now we have them talking more, running faster and hopefully that will help our efficiency as we work.

October has been an adventure with photographing and weather…I think we all have this ideal fall day (like the one we had yesterday?) in our minds and we assume that most if not all of October is usually like that. Well, that could be typical, but not this year. We have had more rain and cloudiness than I thought could fit into one month in Minnesota! And of course we have been scheduled to take pictures outside nearly every day. Fortunately we have had couples like Christina and Zak who have been willing to brave the elements and bring their own sunshine to their photo session! Christina and Zak were so much fun to spend the afternoon with, I hardly even noticed the rain.

Carrie and Jason – engaged

Last week it was 90+ degrees here in the cities; this week… we have been lucky to see 70. I’ll be the first to admit I like the cooler weather, but it sure does make planning more difficult when you’re wearing shots and a tank top one day, and then need a sweater the next! Here are the rest of Carrie and Jason’s pictures! They were tons of fun to hang out with and take pictures of. Thanks for sticking it out in the chillier weather with us Carrie and Jason. We are looking forward to your wedding day!
