closeFinding a place that fit both the style and personality of Candace and Preston was easier than expected. The beautiful and trendy area of the North Loop was a perfect place for the couple that likes to travel and try out new restaurants. Making our way around a few block radius on a Saturday beautiful afternoon we made our way around alleyways, fun wall space and even along the Mississippi River. I simply can not wait for Candace and Preston’s July wedding day!
Do you love wine tasting? Working out together? Cooking together or just relaxing together? Canoeing, paddle boarding, walking your dog, ice skating, biking, or exploring some of Minnesota’s lakes? Add in YOUR personality to your engagement session by choosing the location of your session!
Weather it is the local coffee shop or the park that you met your soon to be spouse at, finding a spot that is sentimental to you can make all the difference in your engagement session.
Typically I like to tell couples that this session is like a date where I am the “third-wheel”. They give us a change to get to know each other before your wedding day and I highly recommend them to couples. They also give me a chance to see how you interact as a couple and you get to see how I work behind the camera.
If you are at a loss for locations, I am happy to suggest some to you, but often the ones that are my favorite sessions are those that are personal to each couple! Hope this helps as you plan a fun engagement session day!
When their parents set them up, neither had in mind that an engagement would be happening in the future. Rebekah and Jeremy’s parents had been friends for years, but because Jeremy was older than Rebekah, their paths rarely crossed. It wasn’t until last summer that the two began dating and knew right away that their core values, sense of humor, and love for the Lord would bring them closer together! I simply can not wait for their June wedding!
Happy Spring to you! I can not wait for those warm days to arrive again! Here’s what’s happening this month. I’d love to get your family on the calendar for a session and can’t wait to see many of you again this summer and fall! Contact me for availability!
I love connecting and chatting on-line!

The Stone Arch Bridge.
Iconic of Minneapolis and a beautiful place for engagement photos. Getting there on a cold day where nothing is happening downtown is even better! Less people to deal with and a completely free bridge and downtown area to walk around!
For Marisa and Nate, this was the perfect day! They brought along their pooch and together we explored our favorite city! I simply can not wait to photograph their November wedding, who knows, we may get a day just like this one, or one with temps in the 60’s! Either way, I can not wait to document their day… you may also see their pooch making a debut there too!
Spring soirée perfection.
Rob and Sarah’s wedding day was a beautiful blend of faith, family, and thoughtful design. Inspired by Monet’s garden paintings, their celebration was filled with soft spring colors, meaningful heirlooms, and intentional details at every turn.
After a joyful ceremony at Eagle Brook Church, surrounded by family and friends, they celebrated the night away at Silverwood Park with beautiful florals, heartfelt speeches, lakeside portraits, and dancing.
One of my favorite details? Sarah changed into her mother’s wedding dress for the reception, while flowers made from that same gown were sewn into her veil.
Congratulations, Rob and Sarah!

A quick look at Sarah and Robert’s beautiful garden soirée themed wedding day! I love catching these behind the scenes moments!Congratulations Sarah and Robert
Watching families grow over the years is one of the greatest joys of my job.
I recently photographed sweet baby Noah’s newborn session, and it was so special getting to capture this season for Sarah + Brandon after photographing their engagement, wedding, and growing family through the years.
His big sister absolutely adored him, and those sibling moments melted my heart
I shared more from their session on the blog today! If your family is growing and you’re looking for newborn or family photos in Minnesota, I’d love to connect.
