I met Carrie + Zach last fall at Milly’s Wine Bar, and it was an instant connection. We sat for hours chatting about life, how they met and fell and love, and their vision for their wedding this upcoming May at Bavaria Downs. Their engagement session at Maison Margaux was just as enjoyable, if not […]

Give me jewel tones and disco balls all day every day please! Rebecca + Jeff had the most incredible and sparkling day this last October. Surrounded by their amazing family and friends, and a dream-come-true guest artist (hellogoodbye), their day was full of love, joy and a whole lot of fun during the reception. So […]

Minnesota is always a wild card when it comes to fall weddings, and I’m pretty sure Kaycie + Brendan weren’t expecting their end-of-September wedding being a swampy 90 degrees, but alas-we were all proved wrong 😉 Regardless of the temps, it was still an amazing and beautiful day with these two, and North Oaks Golf […]

I’ve known Quinn + Dave since middle school, so this day was extra special….it may have been about 100 degrees, but that didn’t stop them from soaking up the sun and getting photos before their wedding ceremony at Cafe Lurcat! They celebrated their day with 25 of their closest friends and family, and I loved […]

One perfect golden hour + one beautiful couple + one cute pup = the most magical engagement session. Add the city of Minneapolis in the mix, where Neel + Aliena first began dating, and it was the best time capturing them together. I can’t wait to be part of their day this summer!

Anytime I have a wedding at the Basilica, I know it’s going to be a good one, and Nora + Jack’s day was far beyond that! The day started with Nora in her mother’s wedding dress, and it was absolutely perfect compliment for the basilica setting. As the day went on, she changed into her […]

When I first chatted with Mette, she told me about her and Andrew’s vision for their wedding day…small and intimate, in Andrew’s parent’s backyard-my favorite setting, so I was immediately into it. She talked about how Andrew’s mom is an amazing gardener and has done everything herself, which I also couldn’t wait to see. You […]

It’s not often I get to photograph the wedding of two people who’s first “meet” I was at. Davie is one of my best friends from college, and Abby was a friend from work via a few of our college friends. In 2018, we had an Olympic party they were both invited too, and…the rest […]

Well, it’s safe to say it was the perfect May wedding with Emily + Sean at The Minikahda Club in Minneapolis. Emily and Sean were one of the couples who moved their wedding day multiple times due to Covid, so when it came together-it was just the most bright and beautiful celebration. With 85 of […]

I met Rachel at the end of 2019, and I knew we were destined to work together. Our coffee date felt like old friends meeting, and with her impeccable style and taste-I had a feeling her and Ben’s wedding day would be beautiful. Welp, I was dead wrong because beautiful isn’t a strong enough word […]

August 9th was one of my first weddings of 2020-and it was beautiful. Like most 2020 couples, Maria + Jake were amazing and had such great attitudes as they were forced to make major changes and shifts to their day. The vendors they teamed up with put together such a beautiful day, that was complimented […]
