Jake & Robin

Happy Tuesday everyone! Now that things have slowed down a little bit after the holidays I am going to try and share a few more weddings that we photographed this past year. I am also working on a new blog, and I can't wait to share it with you all.  

Jake and Robin got married back in October and it was a gorgeous day. The fall colors were beautiful and the colors they picked for their day were perfect.  Their reception was at the Minnesota Commemorative Air-force Museum and it was really unique, I loved it!  Neither of them are pilots but during the speeches we heard it said that one of the reasons they wanted it at the museum was because they want to be each others co-pilots through life. How cool is that! Thanks so much for letting us photograph your day guys, you two are definitely bound for happiness!!   

She gave the bridesmaids all fun funky aprons from anthropologie, and I made them go out on the front porch and do a little Desperate Housewives pose :-)



If I am not mistaken, I think they made their own bouquets, aren't they gorgeous!!


I just want to mention that Robin was probably one of the most relaxed brides I have ever worked with. Her dress got mud on it during pictures and she looked at it and was like "oh well, we will just try and get it out"  I LOVE when brides don't sweat the small stuff, it was a joy working with you guys!! 



There were old war bullets at the museum, so I thought it would be cool to incorporate them somehow :-) 

Probably one of my favorites from the day!! Love it!

Baby on the way :-)

I can't believe how time flies. It seems like just yesterday Kassy and I were running around good ol' Parkston track at 1/2 speed (inside joke) and taping up boys coolers at track meets. Kassy was a great friend and amazing athlete in high school and college. I called her my little pea, so you can imagine how thrilled I was to hear that Kassy was pregnant. I knew that even if she didn't want me to photograph her belly, I was going to convince her. Seriously, I think she might have swallowed a volleyball, for real everyone....she is having a baby at the end of January here, and WOW she looks amazing!!

Thanks for letting me photograph your little belly! I think that every woman should have pictures like these so they can look back someday and show their kids and grandkids :-) She was my first session of 2010 and what a great way to start off the year! I can't wait to meet the little bundle!! love you kass!


Seriously Kassy, you are stunning!!


It was like -50 out so thank you Kassy for being a trooper and going outside for a couple!

something about this one makes me smile :-)



LOVE this one!
I love how her shirt doesn't quite fit at the bottom, so cute!
