Saturday I traveled up to Watertown for the wedding of Amber and Eric at the First United Methodist Church. OMG I just had a blast the whole day, what a group! Amber was cracking jokes and keeping it light and fun all day long. I don’t think I saw her stress once. And Eric, now...
I hope you all have a fab weekend. I’m shooting a wedding today (which you will see by Tues) and then off to the lake with the family. Here’s my goofball happy to be at the lake yesterday.
So while I was shooting Chris and Leigh’s engagement a week or so ago I noticed she had a lovely channel set like mine. So I went to show her mine which had just been cleaned and wow, there was a missing diamond. O well I thought I’ll just deal with it later, but how...
I apologize for not getting this up sooner, but better late than never. Here are Kris and Maria who had an amazingly beautiful wedding last Saturday. It was such a wonderful day… I arrived at the Cathedral in Sioux Falls to first be greeted by Maria’s mom who gave me a big hug and made...
I feel special Sarah and Josh came down from Shakopee to have me do their engagement session. They were wonderful sports who did everything I asked with out a complaint. I think they got some neat images because of it. We started at the Pavillion (Brookings Inn) where they met. It was fun to walk...
Brookings Baby #5 was Alexandra. What a sweet little thing that would have much preferred to sleep through her entire session.CA
Sara and Jack came down from the cities for a visit back home and I was able to schedule their engagment too. We had a good time. They were a blast to work with and we found the most amazing light at the end of the shoot. Here they are.CA ETA: Per the request of...
I sure hope all you mothers out there had a wonderful day. Ayden got out of bed and brought me a pink carnation and told me Happy Mothers Day. Andy was still sleeping so he must have remembered it from the day before. I was in bed asleep when they got home so it was...
Saturday Dawn and Parker finally got married, they’ve been dating for a while… They were married at Peace Lutheran Church which has this amazing wall of windows to let in wonderful natural light. I was so happy to see this, they just laughed at me. They let me play with the windows and also a...
Friday was the wonderful wedding of Heidi and Marty. Pulling up I think Erin and I both were in awe at how beautiful Heidi looked and the style and richness of her dress. And the bridesmaid dresses were lovely as well. Marty didn’t look too bad in his tux either. Heidi did a wonderful job...
On Thursday I also had the pleasure of doing a family session with the Rehders. We had some good playing time and some fun bath time. These guys are always such a blast and it’s great to end the session with a big hug from Ema. Here they are!CA
Thursday was a crazy day with a lot of things happening. One of which was phase one of Lindsey’s graduation images. Lindsey is one of my models this year, clothed by Tuli. And looking as awesome as ever. Here are two from her shoot, more to come later. ETA: The show.
On Wednesday I drove down to Omaha to pick up Sara Ash of Sara Lil Photography for 5 days of working and training with me. We got started right out of the gate with the Mileys who were kind enough to allow us to shoot while they made cookie and played. Here are a couple...
It is officially that time of year, can you tell? I haven’t been able to blog. Well I am going to try my best to keep up the blog, but the slideshows are going to have to drop to mostly only weddings now. So on Tuesday Chris and Leigh came up to see me. These...
Today marked the end of leisurly weekends for me. Tomorrow it is officially wedding season as I will have weddings every weekend for the next 7 weekends before I get a break again. It sure does seem like this off-season has just flown by, I keep asking myself.. was there an off-season? So to make...
Yesterday opened the start of Lake Season. The Ellis family has been going to their cabin on Lake Madison for some time. At the start of the season everyone shows up to put the docks back in the water and to clean out the cabin. I played with the camera of course. Joni’s kids love...
Last night I traveled down to Palisades Park to shoot Lynsay and Brent. I have shot there many times before, so I was trying hard to challenge myself to shoot something totally different. I played with lens flare a bit, used the lensbaby and even climbed a tree. I think we got some great shots,...
Yesterday I took the second half of Trifon’s graduation images. We went to the golf course, a nice field and to his home. I think they all made for some nice backdrops. I had a good time with him and his dad and especially everyone of us not being capable of tieing a tie, even...
