Dena and Chad were married at the Zion Lutheran Church in Litchfield, MN. It was a wonderfully rainy day. I know everyone hopes it won’t rain, but secretly I’ve been dreaming of umbrella and rain images. We got some. Dena was just beaming all day and man did Chad have a hard time taking his...
So I’ve been a slacker blogger. Sorry it’s that end of summer rush. I’m still trying to get caught up. I’m not too far off. Anway this is Lisa and last week we did her grad images. She was a good sport. I had fun with her prom dress…. just like every weekend with my...
A wonderful thank you note from Allie and Jason. I had a great time. You were so much fun to work with.CA Cory Ann, We feel so lucky to have had you as our photographer on Saturday. Everything turned out great and you captured us perfectly! Thank you for being so easy to work with...
What are the chances of two couple who don’t know each other picking the same ceremony location a day from each other, the same photographer, both having a sand ceremony, and selecting the same dj? I’m not sure, but it happened. However the similarities stopped there as each wedding was distinctively their own. As Becky...
We arrived to find Starr and the girls in the house at Tuthill Park starting their preparation. I got started photographing the details right away. After Starr got ready Matt and her got to see each other for the first time. Since it was raining off and on we did our best to get some...
Today we took a little family outing to Sioux Falls to the Spirit of the West Festival. It was a little chilly, but still fun. They had dutch oven food, gun fights, horse drawn carriage and much more. We stopped by and saw Jordan of jem Leathers. They make wonderful handmade leather journals and other...
Big thanks to Dan who after our session was so kind as to file share my computers. This is going to make life so much easier. I know Dan because I spend way too much money (but not nearly what others spend) at Mac Doctors. I felt fortunate when they selected me to do Alicia’s...
Meet Koen. Masondra and Jordan are one of my first couples. They were so much fun. They let me have so much creative freedom with their wedding and bridal portraits. And now I got to take images of thier little man. They were trying to wake him up and he kept making all these funny...
A note from Shelley and Lance: Cory Ann + Staff, Thank you for being part of such a special day for Lance and I. We really enjoyed working with you, you are very talented at what you do!Thank you again, Shelley and Lance Dagel
O my gosh, what an absolutely perfect day! Just moments away from rain all day the wonderful overcast sky made for the perfect light for Beth and Luis’ lakeside wedding. I had not met Beth or Luis prior to Sat. and I didn’t even meet Luis until after the ceremony. Very different for me, and...
Friday evening I traveled to Castlewood to photograph the Benike Family, and in particular Laney. I photographed her last year when she turned two and it was fun to do her three years this year, she is such a little cutie. This is my third time photographing them, last time was for Brandons five year,...
This evening I traveled to Lake Poinsette to photograph the Sorum Family. We played in the sandbox, on the beach, with the fishing poles… and my favorite of all with the hose. Look out when you hire me you may end up paying some crazy woman to come along and teach your children bad habits....
I was so wiped out this weekend. My sinus’ waited until I got in the car after my Saturday wedding and immediately kicked in… even ask Becky. Sun we headed to the lake. I laid on the couch and tried to get some energy for my evening session with Desirae and Troy. When I returned...
So do you want to put a name to the face? Well this is my friend Kristi and her wonderful family. I met Krisiti a while ago while approaching her about putting my images in her store…. Her store is Tuli. She is responsible for getting me to wear jewelry, carry a purse and my...
Desirae and Troy just so happen to visit the same lake Andy’s family does. And the cabin they visit is right down the line. So although I don’t typically take a weekend session I did just for them as it was only a short walk and short time away from the family. I had a...
Last weekend was another fabulous wedding. Evan and Elizabeth got married at the First Lutheran Church in downtown Sioux Falls. This is a fabulous old church with a lot of wonderful character. Their pastor did a terrific job and the parents where crying on many occasions. The reception was held at Chef Dominique’s Banquet Facility...
Today was a special grad session. You see when I was starting out about 2 years ago I needed to practice for taking senior portraits. Well Krisitn was only a sophomore then, but she let me practice on her. I also coached her in soccer – she’s a kick butt keeper! And to top it...
Since the last time we went out for engagement images it was high noon and the sun was horrible, we decided to have another go. Once again they had me totally cracking up. Their wedding will be April 14, 2007 in Sioux Falls. Thank you for the laughs!CA
