Thao & Mark Wedding

Thao & Mark could not have asked for a more beautiful day for their wedding. It had rained the night before, but for the most part all the puddles had dried up and the sun was shining!

I love how we took their engagement pictures at the same park where they ended up getting married. It was fun to go to some of the same spots for their wedding pictures. The group was a ton of fun to be with, which made the day even that more enjoyable. Thao's siblings are great at jumping for group pictures! They did a great job for their family portraits and did not disappoint at her wedding. I love all the silly shots that we were able to get, my favorite being the one where Mark is showing off his wedding ring to the ladies (see below).

We LOVED working with you both and look forward to many more portrait sessions in the future! Congrats again, Thao & Mark!

Madelinn Tipler Senior Portraits

Madelinn was a joy to photograph! She hardly needed any direction with poses, definitely a natural in front of the camera (she watches "America's Top Model" which seemed to be the key).

Take a look at some of the beautiful shots we captured of Madelinn.

Ashley & Eric Wedding

What a fun couple Ashley and Eric are! From the first time we met this couple we knew their wedding would be a blast.

Ashley and I kept in touch from our meeting up until their wedding. I loved getting emails from her. They always brightened my day.

The wedding was outdoors and we were blessed with a beautiful day. We had a little trouble getting from the hotel to the wedding site, as the bus the bridal party rode in was too tall to get underneath a bridge in town, so everyone was shuttled over in different cars. Once we were finished with pictures at the golf course, we went downtown to capture some great shots. Below are some of my favorites from the day.

Ashley and Eric, we had such a great time photographing your day. Thanks for inviting us to be a part of it. We wish you the best of luck in your marriage, and your future. Enjoy!

Kristin & Neil Wedding

What a beautiful day Kristin and Neil had! The sun was shining and there was barely a cloud in the sky. It was a perfect Minnesota summer day.

Kristin and Neil were married in a tiny church in Fairbault, Minn. I loved seeing the old woodwork and all the stained glass. It had so much character. The only problem with photographing in an older church is that there isn't very much room to get around! We made it work though and got a lot of great pictures.

We wish you the best of luck Kristin and Neil! Thanks again for including us in your special day.

Jeff & Sarah Hoeft Wedding

Troy and Jeff have known each other since they were kids. It was fun to be with a group of people who have known each other for so long, seeing how Troy and the Hoeft brothers all interacted with each other. This relationship helped us to get some really fun shots. And Sarah definitely fit right in. We all had a lot of fun and we definitely laughed quite a bit!

The weather was less than perfect. I think it may have been one of the hottest days of the summer. You would never know by looking at the wedding party. Clouds soon rolled in but luckily the rain held off until after the ceremony.

Thanks Sarah and Jeff for letting us be a part of your day!
