Jared & Rachel:: Springfield, IL wedding

They met through mutual friends when she started off at her freshman year at Lincon Christian University.  Not too long after their meeting, while dancing under the stars, Jared asked Rachel defined the relationship and became an item.  As they went through their following years of school (Jared in ministry and Rachel in education), they pushed through the ups and downs of a relationship and eventually being miles apart.

Easter of 2013, after a big Easter dinner, they went on a Easter egg hunt with family and friends where everyone collected eggs with their initals on them.  As Rachel hunted for her eggs and opend them, all the small items in the eggs were a representation of something she and Jared had done in their relationship or qualities about her.  At the end of the hunt, Jared took out an egg from his own basket opened it and got down on one knee and proposed.

Their wedding day was filled with so much joy and love.  The two were so fun and easy to be with, and I was a blessed one, among many, to have been able to celebrate with them and many of their friends and family.  Blessings to the both of you as you enter this joyous stage of marraige.  May the Lord continue to bless, lead and guide you as you walk this new road!  XO

    Tom & Margaret:: John Michael Kohler Art Center Wedding

    Working together at Wigwam Mills, their mutual employer, Tom and Margaret met each other long before their relationship began. Even though the two had a high respect for one another, the relationship did not start until Margaret was out in California working.  Tom, with the over the top personality, and Margaret’s softer low key personality completely balanced one another out.  In doing anything together, whether it be hiking, skiing, or anything outdoors, the two were always laughing!  Friends and family saw that the two together were a perfect match and were both made better people because of the other person.

    While on a family ski trip in Aspen, Tom took Margaret completly by surprise when upon taking a break he told her she had something on her nose.  Rather than offering her a kleenex, he offered her a ring box containing her engagement ring!

    Their wedding day was full of joy and laughter.  They were such a great couple to be around and I was treated like friends.  Tom and Margaret, I wish you nothing but the best in your married life together.  You are both such wonderfully fun people to be around.

        Destination anywhere

        Last year I was able to head out of snowy, cold Minnesota to beautiful, sunny California with my husband to shoot a wedding.  We were so blessed to get to know this great couple and were welcomed in by their friends and family on Catalina Island. After 3 days of shooting with them, we stayed for 3 more days just to check out some of the sites around LA.  I have to say this is a place that I would move to in a second.  As of now, I would gladly trade the March snow for some sun and Vitamin D, but I might just have to get that from the hour more of sunlight with my down coat, mittens, scarf and hat on!  As another cold Monday hits, may you be surrounded by warm thoughts of summer!

        And just to give you a taste my wonderful husband….

        Happy Monday!

          Dan and Carrie: Catalina engagement

          When I went out to California, I got in on a little secret… Jody’s brother was going to propose to his girlfriend after the wedding.  And I got to do another round of photos on Catalina Island, this time with Dan and his wonderfully fun fiancee, Carrie! Because I wanted their photos to be totally unique to them, we found completely different places to photograph in.  (Plus, when you don’t have a white dress to worry about, it is much easier!)

          I can not wait to hear of more wedding plans for this couple, a 2011 wedding is in the plans, and most likely will be scheduled for a destination we all love;  the Twin Cities!
