When couples email me they want a winter engagement session in Minnesota, I always applaud them. You never know what you are going to get as winters could be in the negative double digits plus piles of snow or we could have record setting warm temps. Kera and Dylan were wishing for a snowy winter […]

This year, I have had incredible opportunities to second shoot with a few outstanding photographers that I have looked up to. I was lucky enough to be able to second shoot with Bailey Aro a few times this year. I had a blast shooting alongside her on the wedding below. It was such an inspiring […]

Last week, I had the privilege of photographing Kate and Matt’s Engagement session near Mill City! With this December, being seasonably warm  we took full advantage not having to be zipped up in big puffy jackets and enjoying these last few warmer days. Kate and Matt met at the church they attend and it didn’t take long for […]

Last month, I had the incredible honor and privilege of photographing the wedding of my friends Danielle and Brian in my hometown of New Prague.

And let’s not forget about the colors they choose for their wedding party! Congrats Nadine […]

I don’t know if we could have had a more perfect night for Tami and Tyson’s, engagement session, at Minnehaha Park in Minneapolis.

Rachel and I have known each other since elementary school. We grew up together and I have the best childhood memories of playing tennis, rollerblading, and talking about boys with her. During college, Rachel and I didn’t see each other much, but when we did, we always spent hours catching up over breakfast and tea. […]
