Whitetail Regional Park Engagement Photography | Halle & Evan | Farmington Engagement Photographer

Halle & Evan Enjoy the Trails of Whitetail Park for their Engagement Photos!

Halle and Evan’s story began in a small North Dakota town, and they’ve been inseparable since high school. They shared with me their awkward first date at a movies. Next year, they’ll celebrate their tenth anniversary as a couple by getting married in northern Minnesota.

For their engagement session, they chose Whitetail Park in Farmington. Even though it was windy, we had a great time walking the trails and chatting about one of their favorite topics—The Legend of Zelda. We also shared our excitement about the release of the Onyx Storm next year. It was easy to see how much fun these two have together, whether they’re gaming or just enjoying life with their two pups at home.

Please enjoy their engagement photos!


Basilica of Saint Mary Wedding Photography | Mattie & Kyle | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer

Mattie & Kyle Marry at Minnepolis’s Basilica & Party at Metropolitan Ballroom wedding reception!

I had the absolute pleasure of capturing Mattie and Kyle's stunning wedding at the Basilica of St. Mary in Minneapolis. This iconic cathedral is not only breathtaking in its architecture, but it also provided the perfect backdrop for such a special occasion. With its towering spires, ornate details, and sacred history, it was the ideal location for Mattie and Kyle's elegant ceremony.

Mattie looked absolutely radiant in her mother’s vintage silk gown, a timeless piece that added a sentimental touch to the day. It was such a beautiful way to honor her family’s legacy, and seeing her walk down the aisle in that dress was a truly unforgettable moment.

It was so much fun watching them sneak little glances and snuggle throughout the day, clearly overjoyed to finally be getting married.

After the ceremony, we did photos and Mattie and Kyle were surprised with a horse drawn carriage ride from the Basilica for a little private time together to connect!

After the ceremony, we transitioned to the Metropolitan Ballroom in Golden Valley for the reception, where the celebration continued in style. The ballroom’s charm made for a chic and sophisticated backdrop, and the energy of the room was electric. Mattie made a quick outfit change, swapping her traditional gown for a fun ribbon dance dress, perfect for hitting the dance floor! The guests loved this playful touch.

From the heartfelt speeches to the lively dancing, every moment of the reception was filled joy. Mattie and Kyle’s family and friends came together to create an atmosphere that felt warm, inviting, and unforgettable.

As a photographer, it’s always a joy to document such special memories, and Mattie and Kyle’s wedding was no exception. Their day was filled with genuine calm joy that made the entire experience amazing. I feel so fortunate to have been a part of their journey, and I can't wait to see where life takes them next!

Please enjoy this look into their September Wedding Day!

Como Park Engagement Photography | Bri & Alex | Saint Paul Engagement Photographer

Como Park Engagement with Bri & Alex!

Alex and Bri's story is one of chance encounters, shared passions, and new adventures. These two met while Alex was on the job as a bartender, and since then, they've been shaking up more than just drinks together. With a love for animals and two pets to keep them company, they're building a life in the Twin Cities while balancing school and adjusting to the pace of a bigger city—quite the change from their small-town roots in South Dakota.

Their engagement story is a fun one. Alex planned a creative scavenger hunt that led Bri back to their home, where a ring—and of course, Alex—were waiting. Bri said yes, and their journey toward marriage officially began.

While they plan to tie the knot in a few years, we had the chance to celebrate their engagement with a session at Como Park. It was a perfect way to say goodbye to the last days of summer, capturing moments that reflect their love and excitement for what’s ahead.

Enjoy this small peek into their beautiful day, filled with warmth and anticipation for their next adventure!
