Summer time

...and the livin is easy, well sometimes! With a house full of 5, I often times neglect to blog about the 4 favorite people I love. Here are some snapshots from this past month, from our trip to Milwaukee, to strawberry picking to just time around our house. Enjoy, kick back and enjoy these easy days of summer!

Wedding march; revamped!

I just got through watching this and LOVED it! Such fun creativity!

On the job

Ok, yes, I am a really big dork, but we are about 1/2 way through wedding season and I thought it'd be fun to show you some behind the scenes shots. My assistants Elena and Steph are wonderful, thanks for the photos.
Elena working her magic!
My oldest, Lydia 4, came with to shoot a wedding of some friends in Chicago. Here she is memorized by her favorite thing right now... brides!
I really do love my job! Happy Thursday!

Sam and Josiah are married!

Sam and Josiah had the perfect day for their farm-style wedding. The details of the day were not overlooked and joy overflowed from the wedding party as well as the guests departing their blessings on this couple. Many, many thanks to both Sam and Josiah and their willingness to go along with my crazy ideas! May the Lord richly pour out His blessing on you as you enter this sacred covenant called marriage.

The Owens Family

When Stacy called to see if I would photograph her family, I was thrilled. Her grandfather lives with them and they are truly a multi-generational family! I just loved the way Elijah and his great-grandaddy interacted with each other. There was such a connection between them. Elijah tottled around making sure "gram-pa" was around following them. After 2 re-scheduling because of rain and illness, I was glad we had some beautiful weather to photograph in. Thank you Owen's family for allowing me into your world for an evening!

i heart faces- feet week!

This week's contest for i heart faces is not actually faces, but feet! This is one of my favs from the spring time, thanks to the Sutkowski's for showing off their wonderful feet!

Chuck and Serena were married at beautiful Fort Snelling in St. Paul. The day was absolutely perfect! The sun was shining and there wasn't a cloud in the sky! We had a blast roaming the grounds, and then headed to the cathedral in St. Paul. Chuck and Serena, thanks so much for allowing me to be a part of your day!
