Beautiful Fall Wedding | October in Minnesota Russian Orthodox Wedding Photographer

We met up in the freezing rain at Itasca State Park to take the wedding photos for this beautiful bride & groom.

The weather was pretty predictable for a fall wedding in MN, and didn’t pose a threat at all to these brave Minnesotans!

I hope you enjoy the photographs that capture just a sliver of the love these two sweethearts have for each other.

Her dimple radiates joy, and the way he gazes at her proves he is absolutely smitten…

I hope you enjoyed looking through these as much as I enjoyed taking them!

XO
Amy

Senior Portraits |

It’s been a while so I wanted to share something to brighten up the posts 🙂 So…. you get to see…

Senior Photos! I loved getting to see this lovely lady choose great outfits, and get all dolled up with curly hair and great make up for that beautiful smile. We meandered around a few different locations to get some good color, texture, and variety in style. It was such a fun day.

Hooray! The first photos as Mr. and Mrs. are the BEST! | MN Wedding Photography

THIS! A photo can capture the best of all the feelings of your wedding day, and what all that (sometimes grueling) work of preparing for it is for. It takes months and months of countless hours toiling away with wedding plans, decisions, plan Bs… and then, Boom! You’re married. You have become one with your soulmate and boy, does it feel good! It’s all official, the logistics are taken care of, and now it’s time to really celebrate! These are the moments that you want to remember forever.

Mr. & Mrs.... It's official! — Mr. & Mrs…. It’s official!

This picture of the bride and groom seems to capture that hoo-rah camaraderie with friends and family that, “yes, we are in this for the long haul.”

Family Pictures at Itasca State Park

This family! I had the privilege of taking wedding photos for one of these young couples, and now I got to take pictures of her whole family! I met her mom, dad, brother and wife, younger brother and younger sister (her god-daughter). Mom carefully made each piece to go together, and the violet-plum was the perfect color against the warming greens of our natural backdrop at Preacher’s grove. It is always a blessing for me to be around families, especially couples who’ve been married for twenty-some odd years!!! I enjoy watching their interactions, their jokes, their short nicknames… It is just fun. Here is a little preview of the photos I took with this lovely M Family

Kristi + Colbey Wedding Sneak Peek | Bemidji Wedding Photography at Library Park and St. Philips Catholic Church

Colbey and Kristi were married on the last August weekend in Bemidji, Minnesota. Outdoor wedding weather is never guaranteed to be perfect, and it really shouldn’t put a damper on too much! Thankfully, this sweet couple was all prepared with several umbrellas, and high spirits. The rain that came was a misty, wet shower. It didn’t pour, but was very wet! Thankfully, Kristi still wanted to meet Colbey in the park for their first time seeing each other on their wedding day. HELLO, SWEET!!!

After Colbey cried at the sight of his beautiful bride and they giggled a little bit when thinking about the fact that this big day is finally here, we did portraits outside. Family and the Bridal Party. It went great, and with all the little kids running around with umbrellas, nobody even had their eye poked out 😉

Then, we all went back to the church for their wedding. Hip, Hip, Hooray!

This August wedding was rained out in precipitation, and flooded with joy! 😉 I’m Cheesy, I know!

Z + A Carlson Wedding, Ruttger’s Birchmont Lodge, Bemidji Town & Country Club | MN Wedding Photographer

Z + A had an absolutely beautiful day for their wedding. With a quick passing thunderstorm, the showers brought a beautiful rainbow out to encourage them to wait out the sprinkles and say their I Do’s just they way they had planned them! They were married under the pergola at Ruttger’s as the sun glistened around them. Then we all rode across Lake Bemidji on the pontoon, for a fabulous bridal party excursion before the reception. They arrived in the sunset glow to their reception at Bemidji Town & Country Club. It was decorated splendidly and everything tied together so lovingly with their themes of love and togetherness. DQ Dilly bars topped the dinner off and the dance (led by Jamie with Extreme DJ and Karaoke Bemidji) rocked away all night!
