Kristin+Dave are the kind of people you feel like you’ve known forever. They have an ease about them – a warmth that is inviting. They are funny. Sarcastic. Witty. Quick to tell (and take) a joke. They are exactly my kind of people. I had the most amazing time with them last Saturday at their wedding in Minneapolis’ West End neighborhood. So. Much. Fun. Kristin and her bridesmaids are some of the most fun girls I’ve had the pleasure of spending a Saturday with, and I wish this day would have lasted forever. It started in a hip downtown salon (Jungle Red), and after a church ceremony (and a quick stop at a pub for a pint) we ended the evening in a lovely hotel ballroom beautifully and painstakingly designed and decorated by A Fine Fete Events. Kristin and Dave’s wedding day was filled with light, full of laughter, and...
Bianca+Ziad: Minneapolis Mill District Engagement
Bianca and Ziad were friends for years. Until one day, they weren’t anymore. One day they were falling in love with each other instead. Completely accidental serendipitous love. Finding themselves unable to be without the other and drawn ever closer – their lives became more and more intertwined until these two became one. Ziad is hilarious, and his love for Bianca is remarkable. It’s written all over his face each time he gazes in her azure eyes, her dark locks blowing in waves across her face. Bianca is one of those girls: The pretty ones that from every angle just radiate beauty. It’s not just the kind of beauty that you see…but the kind that you feel. The kind that hides behind the eyes and in the corners of a smile. The kind of beauty that is everywhere and in everything all at once. Her easy laugh and grace have...
Cubicles and Pretty Girls
I have a day job. A big girl, grown up, sit-down-punch-in-work-hard-go-home-repeat-tomorrow job. I work in a cubicle – nondescript in a sea of other 8×8 plots of thin carpet tile, padded walls, and faux formica desktops. A cube farm that I call an office 40 hours each week. Most days are kind of meh. They go by without much ado and hold only the promise of another workday equally mundane. And another. And so on and so forth ad infinitum. But days when I get to take two of the most hilarious, fun-loving, crazy gorgeous girls outside to the loading dock because I need to “test my lens” are especially awesome. Chelsea and Mel make my cubicle life a little easier to bear, a lot more fun, and a helluva lot more beautiful. I have a feeling I’ll be taking their photographs again. And again. And again……....
A romantic orchard Engagement
Katie and Andy are easy to be around. Fun. Vibrant. Hilarious. They are the kind of people you can’t help becoming instant friends with. I feel like I’ve known Katie for years, though we only just met a few short weeks ago, and I cannot wait for their romantic, mustache-filled October wedding. Last Thursday, we went to Aamodt’s Apple Orchard for their engagement session. Complete with their favorite dessert and a bottle of red, the evening was relaxed and fun. Full of light and laughter. Just like the two of them....
