Married for 8 Years!

  As of today, Joe and I have been married for eight years! I had planned on posting a few of our wedding photos in honor of our anniversary. But then I got to looking at them and nearly posted 500. It was such a good day and a fun celebration! (And I happen to…

2016 in Review

I hope your new year is off to a bangin’ start! (I was in bed by 10 pm on New Year’s Eve and I wouldn’t have it any other way.) I’ve been scheming and dreaming of ways to make this new year great and I’m hoping to record most of it here. As per usual…

Hey, Santa!

Happy Christmas Eve Eve! Santa is the talk of our house (and not just when we are trying to encourage good behavior and listening, which I know is not how you are supposed to “use” Santa. But it kind of straightens everybody right up, so…) We made two attempts to see Santa this month. The first…

Congratulations Robbyn and Jason!

“Oh let’s get rich and buy our parents homes in the south of France. Let’s get rich and give everybody nice sweaters and teach them how to dance. Let’s get rich and build a house on a mountain making everybody look like ants. From way up there, you and I. You and I.” Over the weekend…

Love Rocks

  Over the weekend, we attended a wedding for a couple of rock stars. My friend and former teammate Rachel married her Jeff over the weekend in a seriously rocking fashion. The ceremony was at the Loring Pasta Bar and the reception was at the Varsity Theater which set the stage for an evening of…

Soiney Wedding

                  Two weekends ago I was extremely lucky to photograph a very special (not to mention highly photogenic) couple on their wedding day. I only spent a few hours with Andy and Anne, but I could not stop smiling nearly the entire time I took photos. Their…

Make it Grand!

Last weekend happened to be absurdly fun. I got to model a couple bridal gowns and be part of a runway show for The Grand Landmark Wedding Fair in St. Paul! Flutter Boutique used “real brides” to model their gowns for the event. (I say this with quotes because in reality, I am a 5’3 mom of two…

Jayaraj Wedding

  Over the weekend we attended our friends’ Azure and Satish’s wedding. Between the ceremony and the reception, I was whisked away on a golf cart and I got play the role of friend-ographer for about a half hour. We shot a few formal wedding portraits.          I also took some photos of Azure and Satish with their families….

Laura and Patrick’s Wedding

                              We watched our friend Laura marry her college sweetheart last night in one fancy and classy celebration. I tried to take a few photos of the gorgeous details of the wedding before I drank too much wine and forgot how to work…

Wedding!

In life, I think the fatal flaw that Joe and I have is our inability to arrive anywhere on time. It’s not for lack of effort. I’m usually waiting at the door with bags packed for the moment he gets home from work so we can leap into the car and make an attempt at punctuality….
