katie & john : solera wedding

Katie and John’s wedding was fantastic! These two are so sweet together and their daughter, Lou was a central part of the entire day. Both of them teared up a lot, especially when it came to recognizing how important Lou is to both of them. Combine that with some of the best dancing I’ve seen [...]

Lionel & William

I just got the film back from this family session at my studio and absolutely love this image.   

Andrea & Ryan’s Wedding Album

Andrea and Ryan were married last summer and had one of the best weddings I’ve ever gotten to photograph. When I was designing their album, I knew that it had to do their wedding day justice and I think it turned out beautifully. They chose my favorite pale blue and a platinum color that fit [...]

Nikki & Matt’s Wedding Album

  Nikki and Matt were married last Fall and for their album, they chose a gorgeous plum color to match the bridesmaids dresses. Isn’t it lovely?

Molly & Rob : A Minnesota Winter Wedding on Film

Today is the first snowfall in Minnesota and it had me thinking back to February when I photographed Molly and Rob’s romantic winter wedding. I looked through their photos again this evening and wanted to share some of my favorites. These are all shot on film (Hasselblad and Canon 35mm) and I love them all. [...]

Betsy & Tom : Married in Madison!

Betsy and Tom got married in Madison, Wisconsin in September and from the first email from Betsy, I knew it was going to be a great wedding. One of the first things she told me was that her and Tom were thinking about riding a tandum bike down the aisle-umm…so fun. They are both very [...]

Zoe & Josh’s wedding album

As Zoe was paging through her album at my studio, she got a text from Josh that said she should bring the album to his work so he can show everyone! I love that he was so excited to see it AND show everyone that he works with. That’s what these albums do to people, [...]

Flora Bella

The amazing Lisa Roy of Flora Bella designed these pieces for a fashion show that Joynelle put on in Minneapolis this week. The theme was The Caged Bird and I thought what Lisa came up with was so fresh, imaginative and creative. If you’re looking for a fantastic florist for your wedding, contact her and [...]

The Amazing Brown Family!

I  have been photographing this amazing family for a few years now and I always look forward to their sessions. These boys are so much fun and their parents, Wendy and Nick are such interesting, engaged people. I can tell how much they all love each other and what a great family life they have. [...]

Karissa & Francis

I had so much fun with Karissa and Francis yesterday during their engagement session, as you can probably tell from these three shots. I can’t wait to get their film back soon!

Why I love Film So Much

I just got film back from Julie and Eric’s amazing wedding in LaCrosse, Wisconsin and absolutely love these images below. They are all shot on my Contax 645 and show why I love film so much. The subtle tonalities in color and contrast, the way film renders in strong sunlight and overall shade…when I look [...]

I just delivered this lovely album today to Laura and Nathan and had to share a few images of it because I’m so thrilled with how it turned out! Cypress Albums does such beautiful work and I get so excited to give each album to my clients. I am going to be sharing my favorites [...]
