While visiting a fellow wedding photographer, she mentioned that she reminds her couples of the purpose of an engagement session. As a moment to look back on, perhaps shared with children, children's children; a testament to who you were when you were young and in love. In this sense, Elizabeth and Mitch will now forever hold this hot summer night, curling up in wildflowers, and dipping toes in the muddy river as the hot sun fell from the sky.
Ian & Rachel | Minneapolis Engagement Session
These two were just all smiles! I can't get over the absolute joy these two share when they are around each other, perfect blissful giddiness. You can FEEL it in the pictures, and imagine how it will be on their wedding day! I can not wait to capture these two exchange their vows.
Ashley & T | Minneapolis Engagement Session
I am an engineer. This means I absolutely love a quiet coffee shop to edit for hours (the reason why I can get you your wedding gallery in less than two weeks), am happy to go through all the details of your day, and am constantly challenging myself to learn new things.
What this also means though is I have a giant personal space bubble!! While my family, ENFP dominated friend group, and husband have been trying to break this (I am literally surrounded by people who's love language is touch) it still takes me awhile to warm up.
So I am not sure what was about Ashley and T; their inviting personalities, her contagious smile, the way he can make her eyes light up. But something called me to come in close. AND IT WAS SO POWERFUL. Combining story alongside these intimate portraits I can feel their love pulse right through me in these images.
