It was an honor to collaborate with such a creative person like Jessica who inspires ideas for unique living spaces, and wears many hats in the design industry. Her and her sister Katie get their hands in all things creative, and it was a joy to work with them in their creative space for these portraits.

Getting Into The Dress // Team Post
Photo by Maggie Witter
That moment when a bride gets into the dress is a significant part of the wedding day coverage that our team photographs. These photos show the intimate moments between the bride and all the people who are there to help them get into the dress, and how important it is to have them there to help.

Appalachian Trail Adventure // Post by Melissa
My best friend and her partner are preparing to hike the Appalachian trail in a few weeks, and I had to look back at this past summer when we went camping. I am so excited for all that is to come on their journey, and have them back in Minneapolis when they finish their hike in October. This post is to them, and all the up's and down's that their love will support along the way.

Ethan and Katherine's engagement session this past summer in the garden's at Hill Valley Cafe. This location was perfect for their love of gardening and being outside. As we adventured around the location we found a lot of great spots to surround them in their habitat.
