I really like blogging sessions in the order I shot them. The problem is, if you fall behind (like I have) it takes awhile to get to recent work. For example, this lovely couple got married last weekend! I figure if I blog every weekday, I should get caught up in a few more weeks. :)

We did this session in downtown Wayzata, a cute little upscale town on Lake Minnetonka. The weather was perfect and we shared a beautiful evening together. The only bad part was at the end, when we realized we’d left all our cell phones and keys in their locked car! Had to use a bookstore phone to call a locksmith. Crazy!

Check out how they used these photos in a signing album.

Brandon and Nikki run marathons together. I thought this would be kind of a cute way to photograph her engagement ring. :)

The locksmith, breaking into their car for us. :)

I can hear you all now, “I thought you titled this {engagement}!” Well, yes, you’re right. But Serena and Adam asked if they could bring their daughter for a few “family” photos and I was happy to oblige. Especially with a cute punkin’ like theirs!

The session took place at Minnehaha Falls. If you’re from Minnesota, you’ve likely been there a time or two (especially if you’re a photographer), but if you’re from out of state, it’s a park, right in Minneapolis, with a GORGEOUS waterfall! Even though I’ve shot here before, it seems that the water and the light are different each time. And, of course, the people are different. And for me, portraiture is about people. :)

Oh man, I love it when they crinkle their noses. :)

They always want to touch the camera. Ha ha!

A friend took the sweet baby, and we got into the meat of the session. Adam and Serena are truly a delightful couple, so tanglibly in love with each other.

Adam used a rock to scratch their initials in a larger rock. So cute!
