When I sat down with LaTanya and Andrew in our first meeting, I was immediately drawn to them. I felt like I was sipping coffee with old friends. We chatted of their wedding day, how they met, as well as their kids, and summer plans. When LaTanya ran a marathon in the fall, I cheered her on via instagram. When they got tickets to watch the Cubs play in the World Series, I was ecstatic for them. And when we headed to the Stone Arch Bridge for their engagement session we braved the Minneapolis temps, laughed, got lost in the Guthrie theater crowd and talked more of May. I am thrilled to be photographing their wedding for them at a brand new venue in May! Stay tuned for this gorgeous couple!!
They had both been on numerous dates, set up by friends and family, and just not found that right person. Not that they were looking, it just wasn’t the right time. Then, on a whim, Kristen signed up for e-harmony. She and Jake set up a date in St. Peter at a coffee shop and after many hours of talking, they both left the date with a knowledge that this one was different. There was a spark. They both loved being outdoors, looking for a new place to explore, shared a love for Jesus and were ready to settle down.
