Alison & Harrison go ahead and swipe through these photos to see some of the highlights from Harrison’s proposal to Alison. this was such a fantastic opportunity. each chance i get to work with someone on constructing their proposal to their best friend & desired partner in crime for life excites me. Harrison was no different. we got the opportunity to collab on an idea, brought in @roseandlaurelmn for an absolutely ingenious and creative floral instal - that crushed - and we prepared him for a moment he and Alison will never forget. congratulations, you two. cannot wait to see what life has in store for you both. 🤍 
Melissa & Matt this past weekend, i got to go back to my beloved state of Virginia. getting to serve Melissa & Matt whilst doing it in the state i grew up in, was a gift. these two are wonderful in a variety of ways. Melissa’s constant concern for others, and steadfast devotion to enriching the lives of young people is inspiring. Matt is stoic and steadfast - sometimes even in photos *wink wink* - but turning around to see his bride brought out the easiest smile. he is a man riddled with attributes worth emulating. he displayed a humbling display of unselfishness on his wedding day; something so admirable and kindhearted. thank you, both, for letting me serve you two back in Virginia. 🤍 
Kate & Ethan ever wonder why photographers love golden hour so much? yeah, i bet you haven’t, but if you have… look! you don’t need to wonder anymore. Ethan is such a stud. it is so fun for me to see these fellas stand in awe of their brides. this man loves this gal so much - it is palpable! Kate graced us in such an extravagant way. not a single eye could focus on anything else going on while she was around. this was such a perfect way for us to wrap up an already perfect wedding day. there are so many more phenomenal moments to come from this wedding day. venue: @paikkamn florist: @rosebotanical band: @bluewaterkingsband dress: @bhldn suit: @atmosferempls dessert: @honeyandmilkmn catering: @brasa_catering photography: @cleverdisarray 
Kristina & Matt it is so nice to be out & about again. Interstate State Park did not disappoint us either. with a beautiful sunset combined with this gorgeous couple, it was going to be easy capturing some wonderful moments. word has it, the water may have been a little chilly, but it certainly didn’t cause these two to stay laced up. a brief little walk in the water was just enough to snag some lovely pics. wait till you see what pictures we snagged on the north-side of the park… (to be continued) are ya’ll going to venture out and see some state parks in MN this summer? wait till you find out how many parks Kristina & Matt have been to - trust me, they have ya’ll beat. 
Miranda & Zach “too cool for school” is the silly quip that i think about when hanging with these two. they don’t take themselves overly serious, yet they are beyond intentional with how they care for each other (and others). it was their wedding day, but they were dedicated to making it the most enjoyable day for their guests. the level of selflessness attached to their personalities is worth emulating. thinking about the hoops they had to jump through; having to reschedule their wedding - along with coordinating with all the vendors, isn’t easy at all. still, these two chose to not make it about themselves (which would have been totally reasonable if they did!). i will never forget this one. it’ll be on the blog as soon as i wrap up their gallery. 🤍 
Emily & Micah with three years now under my belt, living in Minnesota has shown me some very attractive sides. one of those sides is what comes after winter and what comes before. both of these periods are full of color and both also force me into reminiscing. the spring rewards us for making it through the winter, and the fall is a gentle welcome for the bitterness that will soon exist. i shouldn’t talk so harshly about winter, it isn’t so bad - except for the snow. 🙄 being privy to listen to my couples’ stories, learned lessons, self-discoveries, etc. are all inspiring. through all the seasons and all the ups & downs, witnessing these relationships and marriages become stronger is inspirational. 
Allie & Ethan please join me in expressing our biggest congratulations to Allie & Ethan’s first (of many) wedding anniversary. i won’t bore everyone about Allie’s outstanding attitude of servitude & kindness, or her unwavering support & love for her best friend - nor, tell you about Ethan’s relentless adoration and devotion to his bride, or his pursuit of constant improvement as her husband. i am enamored by marriage and all its qualities are immensely encouraging. congratulations to you both! you have put in so much work and fidelity into your marriage. you two are inspirations. 
Miranda & Zach #firstlookfriday rest assured, there will be many more moments from this wedding shared on my feed, but why not start with their first-look. these two brought so much energy and fun to their wedding day. from beginning to end, they were there to finally tie the knot - having to had moved their wedding from 2020. their supporting cast definitely did not disappoint either; everyone was just as excited to celebrate this marriage as Miranda & Zach were. getting to hear more about these two via the speeches during dinner only confirmed all the wonderful impressions i had gotten from them all the months and days leading up to this day. wishing you two the very very best, and can’t wait to share more! 
Morgan & Nate there are few couples that have these two’s level of synergy. they have so much going on that is worth emulating. marriage & relationship aside, quick tidbit about Morgan: i have never met a gal as competitive as her - it’s lucky for her, Nate’s pretty good at everything. a selfless duo i am very happy to have a rapport with. thank you both for you examples in your lanes individually, as well as together.
