Mississippi River Proposal | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer
For this proposal, I had to be extra sneaky since I was on a boat with Dustin and Bri! Dustin had arranged everything beforehand, including a private table on the back of the boat on the Mississippi River. While they enjoyed brunch, I waited on the main floor. Bri thought the whole surprise was just for her birthday- she had no idea she was about to get an extra special birthday gift! As it came down to proposal time, I snuck up to their upper deck. My wedding vendor friends, Kellie with Rustic Elegance and Laurie with Lauren B Photography, helped out with the proposal by hanging a large sign from the Stone Arch Bridge that Dustin had made. The sign read: “MARRY ME BRI!” Once Bri spotted the sign, Dustin got down on one knee while I photographed it all! Such an awesome way to start the day! Congratulations, Dustin and Bri! Best wishes!

Silverwood Park Wedding | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer
This wedding was extra special since the bride is the sister of other Janine with Jeannine Marie Photography! It was so fun to see the day unfold. After getting engaged, Jessica and Zach knew right away that Three Rivers Parks: Silverwood Park in St. Anthony, MN was the perfect venue for them. They live nearby the park and have seen quite a few weddings there while walking around. When they called to secure a date, they knew it was a good sign when their ideal date was available. Their outdoor ceremony was on the patio, overlooking the lake. A little before the ceremony started, there was a thunderstorm and it was pouring. We decided to wait it out and after the storm passed, family and friends helped dry off the chairs just in time for the bride to walk down the aisle! The sky was sunny after that! Looking at the photos, you can’t even tell there was a storm!
Back in spring of 2013, Jessica and Zach first met at the Guthrie Theater during the opening night party for Primrose Path. Zach was an actor in the show, and Jessica worked as an usher for the theater. At the party, Jessica approached Zach and said, “You know, you’re the cutest actor in the show.” She then left to go dance with friends. A little later, Zach went over to Jessica and said, “You’re like really gorgeous. Can I have your number so I can take you on a date?” They had their first date a week later. Skip ahead to December of 2015. They went on a winter morning walk to revisit a few of their favorite spots in Minneapolis: Dunn Brothers where they had their first date; The Guthrie Theater; Gold Medal Park; Saint Anthony Main; and the Stone Arch Bridge. While walking across the bridge, Zach pointed out an informational sign on the bridge. This served as a distraction for Jessica. While she read the sign, Zach got out the ring box. When she turned around, Zach was on one knee. Of course, she said yes!

Calhoun Beach Club Wedding | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer
Holy flower galore! Krista and Anthony wanted flowers everywhere and Camrose Hill Flowers definitely delivered! They decorated Calhoun Beach Club from top to bottom with an assortment of brightly colored florals, including the grand staircase. It was absolutely stunning! A special moment for their wedding is the beautiful bouquet the couple had made in memory of Krista’s mother. Anthony carried the bouquet in during the ceremony processional and placed it in a seat in the front row. The bouquet was also placed at a seat at the reception. Such a great way to remember a loved one and represent her presence on the wedding day! Another unique aspect of their wedding day is that they had traditional Samoan dances by Anthony’s family members to kick off the dance party.
Krista and Anthony first met while Anthony was living in San Diego with two roommates, Nick and Clark. One day, Nick brought his girlfriend, Maggie, and her sister, Krista, over to hang out. Krista and Anthony talked while watching the Rose Bowl. She kept asking football questions and he answered all of her questions, realizing she was actually interested in the answers and not just making small talk. Anthony was intrigued by Krista’s Midwestern accent. Eventually, Nick, Maggie, and Krista left and Anthony figured he wouldn’t see her ever again. Well, as luck would have it, they all met up a few days later with more friends. By the end of the night, it was just Anthony, Nick, Maggie, and Krista. They went back to Maggie’s and watched movies and everyone crashed at her place. The next morning, Anthony woke up and Maggie and Krista were gone. He thought Krista may have headed back to Minnesota and that he didn’t even ask for her number. That’s when he realized he liked Krista. So, he found her on Facebook and messaged her asking why she had left without saying goodbye. Turns out, Maggie and Krista had gone to get coffee and would be back soon. Krista invited Anthony to join her, Maggie, and Nick for a day at Mission Beach on the boardwalk. By the end of the day, they exchanged numbers and said their goodbyes as Krista headed back to Minnesota. After that day, they talked every day and the rest is history!
Thanks for letting me be a part of your wedding day, Krista and Anthony! I had so much fun!
You would’ve never guessed how many kids were playing on this playground outside the frame while we shot some photos during the reception! Thanks to these kiddos, we were also able to achieve the awesome shot with Krista’s veil at the end!

Rolling Ridge Event Center | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer
Nick and Emily’s rustic Minnesota wedding took place at Rolling Ridge Event Center in St. Joseph, MN. Shout-out to Kellie with Rustic Elegance for doing an amazing job coordinating the day! This was my first time shooting a wedding at this venue and I’m absolutely in love! There were so many fun spots for photos. Plus the space has a lot to offer- a gorgeous outdoor ceremony site, a bridal suite, a groom’s getting ready space, and a historic barn. Rolling hills and trees surrounded the area- it doesn’t hurt that the owners have a landscaping company too! Emily and Nick’s pink and navy wedding included a wedding party of 12 people, along with five adorable flower girls in mismatched dresses and floral crowns! It looked like there was going to be rain just over the ceremony time, but luckily it held off and they were still able to do their outdoor ceremony! Their ceremony musician, Michael Shynes, set the ambience for the ceremony and initiated a few tears! He has an incredible voice and is a great talent- if you haven’t heard him before, check out his music here! But my favorite part of the day was all of the smiles between the happy couple! Emily has the cutest nose-wrinkling smile! Thanks for letting me be a part of your big day, Emily and Nick!
Check out their engagement session in an open field right here in the Twin Cities followed by a trip to Quixotic Coffee and Mann Highland Theater here!
