Lindsey and Kevin's Engagement

Lindsey and Kevin are so sweet together. We met up with them on Wednesday evening in Como Park to do some engagement photos at sunset. Honestly we couldn't have had a more beautiful night to photograph this beautiful couple. The love and kindness that Lindsey and Kevin show each other is incredible and very contagious and we can't wait to photograph their wedding this fall!


























Photo Tip Tuesday



Hey everyone! Spring is ALMOST here in Minnesota. Lets all hope this is the LAST time we have to shovel off our cars this year!

Anyway, we are psyched to introduce our very own PHOTO TIP TUESDAYS.

Whats the first rule of having your photos taken? Have fun with it of course!
But whats the second rule? The third rule? While we don't like to generalize photo sessions with a bunch of pre meditated rules we love to make people feel more comfortable when we’re photographing them so we're demystifying the whole thing.

So every Tuesday we'll be sharing, right here on Facebook, great tips for when you’re in front of the camera.

We'll be focusing on mainly engagement and wedding photo tips but we’re always open for questions, suggestions, and discussions.

Lets do this!




Cozy Up and Grab a Blanket

Kelly and Jack are just the sweetest people. In Minnesota its really a brave thing to pose for engagement photos in the Winter and these two really pulled it off! Bethany and I had an idea to photograph them at Centennial Lakes in Edina because it always looks so pretty at sunset. It turned out that it was the same spot they got engaged!

Jack and Kelly were sooo easy to photograph because they were so comfortable and in love with each other. It was impossible for them to not act natural! We took a nice (although chilly) walk around the lake with these two lovebirds photographing as we went. We found a sweet bonfire and warmed up a bit with some hot chocolate. 

These two are such a fun couple and we cant wait to photograph their wedding this summer!

















Tree

Hey all! We are getting super excited for the holiday season. Bethany and I have been busy decking the halls and drinking spiced apple cider! It will be so nice having most of our Minnesota family here to spend Christmas with and all the nieces and nephews to play in the snow with.


Speaking of Minnesota Christmases, we are totally up for some winter couples sessions! The point of couples photography is to show the love and fun you have together and a huge part of living in Minnesota is cold weather, right? Why not combine em. We can bundle up, build a snowman, sled down a hill, and have a chilly little session. Its a great idea for a couples gift to each other. Engaged? married? A new photo of yourselves is a great gift for parents and grandparents! Got kids? Bring em.

Here are some of our photos from the last few days.
