Alyse was the winner of my Summer Minis giveaway, and it was perfect timing as these two just celebrated their 11th wedding anniversary! They brought along their doggy, Mac and despite all the mosquitoes that made their appearance, it was the perfect ending for a weekend full of Summer minis. Thanks for joining me Grant & Alyse!

Zach & Christina drove all the way up from Alexandria, MN to visit me in my neck of the woods. It was Christina’s first time this far north, so it was fun to show them around :) We drove around the county and had the most beautiful goldeny night to end our evening. Fun fact: back in the day, I took Zach’s senior photos! What an honor it is to also get to capture another amazing milestone in his life – his marriage to Christina! I’m so excited for their wedding next August at the Crooked Willow in Alexandria – no matter the location of their wedding, the beauty + love between these two will be so fun to capture :)

Sarah + Matt (or Hew as he is now nicknamed haha!) are quite the risk takers! Tuesday we were hit with some crazy storms in the afternoon, and these two still decided to chance the weather and make the trek to Baudette all the way from Bemidji. Luckily, all the rain cleared and it turned out to be a beautiful evening! Here’s a peek into our evening together:

Danielle + Darren met up with me for probably one of the last fall sessions I’ll have this year. Most of the leaves are gone around here, but man oh man did we have some beautiful goldeny light! I had so much fun getting to know these two more and watching them laugh and giggle with one another <3 Congrats Danielle & Darren!

Hayley + Eric + their sweet little baby bump joined me for a beautiful evening at Graceton Beach! It was the perfect fall evening and unusually calm for being right on the water. It was so fun to meet these two & feel their excitement for their upcoming bundle of love!

This past Tuesday evening, I met up with Megan & Jesse for their engagement photos. The dreamy fall weather only heightened the beauty of their homestead – they have the most beautiful yard surrounded by acres of trees with a beautiful ravine running through their backyard. Their property is going to be the perfect place to celebrate their marriage next June and I can’t wait (and neither can their doggy Bailey)!

I’m so excited to share this sneak peek with all of you! Jody and Jean-Paul will be celebrating their 10 year wedding anniversary! We woke up bright and early Saturday morning and captured the sunrise. Despite the crazy winds, it was still crazy beautiful! We then headed to their home and snuck their baby Deuce, an adorable English Lab, into some photos as well. Happy Anniversary Jody & Jean-Paul!

It’s Kendall & Jake’s wedding week! We snuck in a quick engagement session this past weekend and my oh my is it giving me all the fall feels!
