I shot Jessie and Rob’s engagement photos on and around the Stone Arch Bridge in Minneapolis, MN.  We spent a beautiful Spring day outside and got some great shots in front of the beautiful blooming trees and the gorgeous downtown Minneapolis skyline. Rob even coordinated his pink shirt perfectly for some photos we took under falling pink petals of an apple blossom tree!

Happy Cinco de Mayo!  Becca and Andrew’s engagement photo shoot at the Minneapolis Walker Art Museum’s Sculpture Garden was incredibly fun!  The couple arrived with 3 complete costume changes, and some sweet vintage luggage to set the scene for their upcoming destination wedding on the Turks & Caicos islands in the Bahamas.  They wanted to use their engagement photos to make some custom Save the Date cards and Wedding Invitations.  After this outdoor engagement session, we set up an indoor session at my photography studio, where Becca & Andrew busted out some dance moves in front of the camera.  Thanks you two!  I can’t wait to fly out and shoot your destination wedding in the Bahamas!

Hope and Brad got their engagement photos taken at the Wright County Fairgrounds in Howard Lake, MN.  We lucked out with some beautiful backdrops as the fall leaves were at their most colorful peak.  Our photos are splashed with vibrant oranges and yellows, an action shot or two of a moving train, and some playful engagement pictures at a warehouse loading dock.  Hope, Brad and I got to enjoy some of the last beautiful fall weather of the year!

Lake of the Isles – or just simply “Isles”, as it is known to locals – is one of the prettiest lakes in Minneapolis.  That’s probably the reason Brittany and Mike chose to have their engagement photos taken there.  We had a lovely stroll around the lake, stopping from time to time to take some pictures on a bridge, or a park bench, or in a boat, or in the water!  We had such a great time, and I am so blessed to be shooting this couple’s wedding.  They really love each other and know how to laugh together.  Thanks for a wonderful day, Brittany & Mike!  Oh, one more thing….  As I do after most engagement photo sessions, I designed a Save the Date card for Brittany and Mike to send out to their guests.  Take a look!

Jade and Thomas are SUPER FUN to work with!  They have great smiles, and they are always laughing.  You can really tell how much these two enjoy being together.  Their engagement photos turned out so great it was hard to pick which ones to put on the blog!
