Minneapolis Maternity Photography • Briana

We meet and get to know the nicest people while shooting weddings. One of the best things about being in this business are the friends you make along the way. Briana is one of our 2009 Brides, but she's also become a great friend. We were thrilled for her when we heard she was expecting. Needless to say, we were really excited to catch up with her and document her pregnancy. The weather held off just long enough to create a few outdoor portraits. Then we headed inside and set up our traveling studio in her family room.

Minneapolis Wedding Photographer • Nicky + Tommy

Geoff and I had been wanting to photograph a winter wedding for quite sometime when we met up with this wonderful couple. I think my face must have lit up when they said their wedding date was in January! The light here in winter has a special quality to it and I believe snow only enhances it further.  So, we were really looking forward to working outside for their portraits. However, the Minnesota temperatures can be pretty extreme. Nicky and Tommy's wedding day high temperature was minus 2 degrees. Yes, I said -2 fahrenheit.  However, this didn't slow them down at all. They were absolutely fantastic and wanted to go outside for their portraits. I'm so glad that they were hearty Minnesotans because the photographs are beautiful. Take a look for yourself...

The Signature Wedding Album • Shelly + Matt

I love getting mail and just about my favorite thing to get in the mail are my clients wedding albums. Many, many hours of design and handmade craftsmanship go into making these custom signature albums and they are simply gorgeous. You can't tell from the photographs how well made they are, or how substantial they feel, or the softness of the Italian leather.  These are true heirlooms made with archival photographic prints. About half of our couples select a wedding package that includes an album, which offers a great savings compared to purchasing one a la carte sometime after your wedding.  I often find myself wondering if my other clients have made an album, and if so, what type. What does it look like? After all, your album is your true finished work of art.

Shelly and Matt's album is a 10x10 Signature Flushmount album with black leather, a metal cameo cover, and silver spine imprinting. Here are a few photos of the album details and I've included a couple of the spread designs, too.
