Bride and Groom Wedding Album: Ashley & Jason

I've said it before and I will say it again: I love designing fine art albums for my wedding couples!  I feel like giving images on a disk at full resolution, fully-edited is an amazing benefit my wedding clients receive- but without a custom-designed album, the whole process feels a little .... incomplete.

These albums tell the story of their day, the story of their love.  I plan the design around the style and colors of their wedding day and encourage them to include quotes, verses and lyrics to make it that much more unique to them.

As a bride a few years ago, I can say that my own fine art wedding album purchased from my photographer was the best investment we made for the entire wedding!

I am honored to do what I do today- and creating an album that will be treasured and then passed down for decades to come is one of my favorite aspects!

Ashley and Jason's album is full of details that showcase their beach ceremony and Grand View Lodge reception- from colors to font to layout, this album fully reflects who they are as a couple!  Here is a little glimpse at the finished product:

Class of 2013: Kayla

I am blessed with wonderful clients.  Time and time again I am amazed by how down-to-earth, lovely and fun each and every one of them are to get to know, photograph and work with!  Kayla was certainly no exception!  We ventured around Zimmerman to beautiful locations that highlighted autumn and her beautiful smile!  She was so real, authentic and kind!  I absolutely LOVED capturing her with her new, beloved puppy Jagger as well!  What a joy!  

Here are a few favorites:

I have been so blessed and excited each week to have images featured in national or regional blogs!  I love how fun it is for my clients to see their portraits showcased in an unique and special way!

In the last few days, baby Cali's newborn images were featured in Baby Lifestyles:

And then just yesterday, Katie and Cody's engagement session was featured yet again on one of my favorite wedding blogs, Wedding Hopping!

An Amazing Autumn Wedding: Lacey & Josh

As I drove up to Aitkin, Minnesota on October 6^th, I knew it would be a beautiful day.  The leaves were falling, the wind blowing and the couple was beaming with joy.  Even in the midst of a few snowflakes, Lacey and Josh only had eyes for each other and their radiated through the entire wonderful wedding. 

They’ve been together forever- or at least it feels that way.  They have beautifully weaved their lives- and their souls- together.  They dated for years, and were engaged for a few more- so I have yet to meet a couple who just seemed to so ready and comfortable throughout their big day as these two!   

Here is a look into their lovely day!

St. James Church provided the most beautiful backdrop for their portraits & ceremony:

Josh awaiting his first look at his bride! 

Seriously one of THE BEST wedding parties ever!  We laughed the whole time! 

Lacey's entry was gorgeous!  What a radiant bride! 

The Forty Club in Aitkin was stunning- the uplighting, sweeping lights and decor made it magical! 

Congrats you two on such a stunning day and a special life-long love!
