Bryant Avenue Baptist Church Wedding Photography | Megan & Stefan | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer

Megan and Stefan met officially at college. Megan was really shy at first Stefan didn't think she was interested, it took a little bit of convincing but eventually Megan convinced him that she was completely interested. Unofficially they met when Stefan met Megan'sfather and he had Stefan waved at his family sitting in thecar. Little did he know he just waved at his future wife.

On the wedding day Megan and Stefan had me convinced within minutes that they could not be more excited to marry the other. Megan's details had me laughing with delight; her shoes were literally unicorns. If you know this bride at all you know how fitting they were and by the end of the night she convinced me that she was my unicorn bride! Stefan loved the shoes and his reaction had everyone giggling. 

The music that drew people in was the soundtrack to Pride and Prejudice 2005, which was so beautifully played and set the mood. Megan walked downthe aisle to Studio Ghibli; the moment could not have been more beautiful. 
As the reception came so did the rain, but it made sure to keep these two in mind because it didn't interrupt anything on the wedding day.  Having both worked at Caribou Coffee (Stefan very short time), their love of coffee was evident having their own coffee station with coffee bean favors for their guests to take home.

It was such a joy to take part in a small part of my MW Bride and Groom's lives. Congrats to such a sweet couple.

Featured Styled Shoot | RUFFLED | St. Paul, MN

It is a strange feeling when something you have visualized for a certain amount of time comes into reality. That dream I had was a styled shoot. Sometimes if your lucky and you share your ideas with others they can see it too. And all at once everyone plays a role to make it a success. Last week RUFFLED wedding blog featured our shoot! Being my first feature for my wedding photography, I am honored that someone loved it as much as I do!

The styled shoot was inspired by a love for plum and winter. From my imagination to your eyes : enjoy!

East Coast Pre-wedding Fun | Traveling Wedding Photographer

The past 3 months the desire to go on a vacation has slowly been filling from my toes and through my finger tips. I have been antsy to take a break from the norm and get out of town! I have been singing the opening lines of T.Swifts Wildest Dreams to my husband during all that time. "..Let's get out of this town, drive out of the city , away from the crowds..."


Then it happened, a friend of ours are celebrating their marriage and we were planning on celebrating right there with them!  I enticed Marcus to go with the promise of the NASCAR All Star Race in Charlotte and with that my hubby was also on board!
The days leading up to wedding fun were spent exploring Altalna's breathtaking aquarium.
 

Watching my NASCAR driver, Joey Logano, win 10 feet away from my seat with one of the best spinouts just have ever seen. (Which is completely understandable because he just won a million dollars)

And enjoying catching up with friends and family.

It has been such a blessing to be able to go on another adventure before some mountain wedding day!
