Writing this blog post on a dreary November day really has me reminiscing on Ben and Niki’s perfect August wedding weather. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky, and the vineyard they were married in was full of life and color! Ben and Niki were such a fun couple to work with – incredibly kind, […]

  These TWO! So. much. laugher the entire session. When a couple like Rob & Ashleigh have this much fun just being together, it makes me job reeeal easy! We chose to photograph their engagement session on the timeless University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus – my alma mater, too! They are both graduates of […]

  Brittany and Joe were married on a perfect August Saturday at the Harriet Island Pavilion in St. Paul, MN. We found a magical little park nearby with a fairytale-esque fountain and epic histroical St. Paul house just down the street! Oh, how I love me some St. Paul charm! Brittany and Joe are such […]

  Mary and Will were married on August 3rd at the Red Barn Farm in Northfield. If you remember last year, this venue was destroyed by a tornado! So devastating, but the new barn is SO beautiful. They did an amazing job maintaining the rustic barn feel, while also modernizing it. I fell in love! […]

  Driving into Northfield for this family session, I saw the sign welcoming you to Northfield – “cows, college and contenement”. Are you kidding me?! Too cute! Northfield is such an adorable college town and was so fun to venture down there for this family session on a perfect summer night. Enjoy!  

  Prepare yourselves for the cutest mother daughter duo of all time!! I’ve had the joy of photographing Lauren & Riley for the past three summers, and they always come wearing the most adorable coordinating outfits that are so fun to photograph! We always have a blast exploring the summer outdoors together and making memories. […]

Abbey and Nick are my kinda people – willing to drive three hours from home to adventure to a place they’d never been before to take SUNRISE engagement photos with a photographer they’d never met. I applaud their bravery, because that’s kind of an intimidating situation! They were rewarded with a gorgeous sunrise, perfect golden […]

  You know when you meet someone and you just click? From the first time we met up to discuss their wedding, Lily and Mitchell felt like old friends! They are both so kind, goofy, welcoming and down to earth #mypeople!! I knew we’d have a blast at their engagement session because these two are […]

  Two of my favorite things about engagement sessions: the time and freedom to explore a new spot with my couple, and couples who are down to earth and willing to go with the flow! Nate and Caroline absolutely knocked their engagement session out of the park – which is especially impressive because about 10 […]

For Ben and Niki’s engagement session, we spent some time exploring a Spring Brook Nature Center in Fridley. They met at work, and when they were first getting to know each other, they would often stop by this park after work and walk around together. Throughout our session they would point out different spots that […]
