Ali and Alex are such a great couple! Ali and I had so much fun coming up with ideas for their engagement session over the past month or so and I think the shoot went even better than we planned! It's pretty clear that these two have amazing style and I cannot wait to be back at the Edina Country Club celebrating their wedding next summer! Thanks for the amazing time, Ali and Alex!

Amy and Colin popped a bottle of champagne as we eased into their engagement session. These two are a ball of energy together, and their love radiates when you are around them. Happy to know these two, and I can't wait for the wedding!

Ethan & Sara // Married // Post by Maggie Witter
Sara and Ethan's wedding was so special to photograph! Not only do I now get to share our anniversaries, but they also got married in Pepin, WI - a town that has always been near and dear to my heart. It is the town where my grandpa grew up and their beautiful venue, Villa Bellezza Winery was directly down the road from my grandpa's old farm! Sara and Ethan treated us like their guests the whole day, we felt spoiled! Thank you Ethan and Sara for being so wonderful to work with. We are so happy for you guys!!

Greg & Steph // Married // Post by Maggie
Right away when I met these two I knew that we were going to be good friends! They are so sweet and their positive energy is contagious. They had a beautiful ceremony in early August at Hope Church in downtown Minneapolis, and celebrated with their guests afterwards at the Prestwick Golf Club in Woodbury. It was obvious Greg and Steph were all about enjoying their time with their friends and family and of course, loving on each other. Congratulations Greg and Steph!
Mr. & Mrs. Rubin // Married // Post by Ryan
Rob and Christine got married at Energy Park in Saint Anthony Main, and brought all their friends and family to celebrate with them at The W Hotel in downtown Minneapolis. Their selected locations complimented these two very well. Their love is one of a kind and so was their wedding. Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mr.s Rubin!
Christie & Ryan // Engaged // Post by Melissa
Christie and Ryan are high school sweethearts who waited years until the day when Ryan asked Christie to marry her in a field lit with the words "will you marry me?" These two will get married next summer in an apple orchard, and I can't wait to be part of their very anticipated wedding day! Congratulations Christie and Ryan, your love is one of a kind.

Jackie & John // Engaged // Post by Jackson
The rain cleared just as I met with Jackie and John for their engagement session. We stopped the streets, sat down for a drink, and found secluded areas around the city until the sun went down. Can't wait for these two to get married next August!
Chelsey & Kyle // Engaged // Post by Thea
Chelsey and Kyle were full of love and joy during their engagement session. It really helps when a couple is comfortable in front of the camera, and these two totally were! We went all over Minneapolis starting at Lake Harriet, to the North Loop, and back alley's. I can't wait for these two to get married. Congratulations Chelsey and Kyle on your engagement!
Bryan & Flora // Married // Post by Ryan
I love when couples infuse so much of who they are into a wedding. Flora loves pink, vintage touches and elegance. Bryan loves nature. He spent his whole childhood adventuring on this property and learning about various plants. So, they had a very elegant, nature and pink filled wedding on the family farm and totally pulled it off. They kept the guest list short and sweet and threw one great party. Though it was hot and humid, you can't even tell from the photos. Everyone really enjoyed the day and as the sun set, a cool breeze carried any thought of sweat and stickiness away. Congratulations Bryan and Flora!!
Charlie & Brent // Married // Post by Melissa
When Charlie and Brent bought their new home in Minneapolis they instantly knew it would be their wedding location. Both being from Texas, and finding each other in Minnesota they made their wedding a reflection of the life they have built together here. These two have the sweetest souls, and anyone who encounters their love knows they are beyond perfect for each other. Congratulations Charlie and Brent!!
