My cousin Joe, all growed up. Tears and sniffles.

Cardboard Musings

Jenny and John (aka Jonnifer)

I can't even explain how much love I have for these two. Jenny is a coworker who has become one of my dearest friends, and through her I have had the pleasure of getting to know John as well. I've never seen soulmates like these two; they are the cheese to each others' macaroni, each others' raison d'être. I have watched their love grow stronger over the past year I've known them, and it is exactly the kind of love I hope to find some day. This shoot showed me a side of their relationship I'd never seen before, and what I saw left me speechless and inspired. I never wanted to stop photographing, and now I don't want to stop writing... ah! If I make it through their wedding next summer without weeping, it'll be a miracle...































See what I mean? So much love.

Alex and Katrina

My best friend's childhood friends. The pressure was on for this shoot! But Alex and Katrina never stopped laughing, a photographer's dream. Their love truly is incredible to watch -- they emulate what it means to be marrying your best friend and other half. The location was also special for both of us; the Lyndale Park Rose Gardens are my favorite spot in the city, and Katrina's parents were married there. Whimsy, romance, and significance: the opportunity to capture all three is why I do what I do, and needless to say, I left this shoot on Cloud Nine. Plus, their dog Patch is absolutely adorable. (For the warm fuzzies, you're welcome).
