A couple that plays together, stays together.
​​​​​​​Isn't that what they say?

It seemed pretty obvious to me that the Haley/Tschann shindig would go off without a hitch.

What they asked for was movement.
What we got was pretty moving.

Gahhh, cue the 😭😭 emojis!

Guys, every engagement is special.
Because truly, every couple is special.

But it gets a little cry face emoji extra when…

Can I tell you something? My jokes suck. I don't pretend to be a comedienne. I’ve only got one Laffy Taffy gem in the back pocket about dentists, and find funny-on-command to be an elusive chimera. 

But it’s important that you know that going into Damian and Ellen’s wedding day blog…

I've come to the conclusion after an evening at the park with Family M, that the dirtier the kids are at the end of the session, the better the shoot will be. 

The suspense of this has been killing me.

I've been asked several times if I get sick of shooting in the same location. If the familiar becomes boring and limits my creativity.
To which I respond gracious no, pal.
To which I'd show Cathleen and Alec's engagement session at my favorite park in the Cities.

You know, it's not quite right to assume that I only like to photograph the big belly laughs that appear throughout a wedding day. (And they always do appear, which is one of the things I like best about weddings—the joy.)

A perfect testament to the less-is-more philosophy: Hailey and Bryan's dreamy, laid-back engagement session.

How many times did I hear guests gushing over the decor, those earrings, Kori's booty in that dress? Dunno, I lost count.

You know how it is when you go to a restaurant, you're scanning the menu, and one of your ingredient pops up? (See also: pomegranate, fig, lamb.) You know, the thing where you immediately stop, you tap the menu in a moment of triumph, and order it up without another glance?
