Nikki & Chad
Last Friday morning, I met Nikki and Chad for the first time at one of my favorite place to make casual portraits, St. Anthony Main. They wanted to have some great images of just the two of them prior to their upcoming wedding in West Virginia. Unfortunately for me, they already found a photographer near their home town.
They are one happy and in love couple! Between you, me and the rest of world, I'd like to persuade them to fire their photographer in WV and let me tag along! The photographer they hired is in for such a great wedding day for sure.

Sarah & Tim - Engaged to be married REAL soon!
Having a chance to get together for a casual portrait session before a wedding day is so great. It is usually the first time a couple has ever had professional portraits made of them. Of course there will be a ton of images from the wedding, but these portraits are really special because it is just the two of them in regular clothes doing regular things.
When I am able capture the true relationship and personalities of a couple, I get goosebumps every time. Sarah and Tim, I think we did it. But, I'll let you be the judge :)

Andrea and Vik - Engaged to be married April 26, 2008
How cool is it that we photographed the engagement session exactly one year from their wedding date? Good times!

Jill and Corey
Engaged to be married on May 20th, 2007! Now here's a couple that can roll with major changes to their wedding plans. Originally set for Oct. 20th, 2007, about two weeks ago, they decided to scrap that idea and move to Texas to be near family and move the date up a bit. And as they say, everything is working out just dandy.

Summer photos for a Spring wedding
Amanda and Chris are engaged to be married May 19th, 2007. A few days ago, we had our practice session (a.k.a. the engagement session) and it went very well. We went down to my private outdoor studio - St. Anthony Main and just roamed around.
I think the three of us were pretty amazed it hadn't rained yet as it looked like it was going to do so all day. Lucky for us it held out and thanks to the clouds, the light was beautiful.
I love watching peoples' guards let down after a few minutes in front of the camera. Something happens to all of us when a camera gets put into your face. I imagine many of you would recognize the "deer-in-the-headlights" smile mile away; yet we all still get caught doing it. You should see mine - it's not pretty. Actually, I tend to scowl more than smile. It's not easy for to get a photograph of me that I'm gonna like.
And since we're on the subject, this is what I enjoy very much about being a wedding and portrait photographer. If I've done my job right, my subject is going to have a portrait of themselves that they really like; if not love! I have a couple of portraits of me that I REALLY like. For me, this is a wonderful feeling. And it's that feeling that I want to give to everyone I photograph.

Lothar (must be said in a deep voice)
I'd like you to meet Lothar. Lothar is a one year old (I think) Greater Swiss Mountain dog. Tonight he brought his mom and dad (Mischa and Sarah) down to St. Anthony Main for a little pre-wedding session. He's a real charmer that Lotar and quite fun to photograph. Hot dogs were the trick - smart parents.
As for Mischa and Sarah, they are about as easy and fun to photograph as they come. We had beautiful Minnesota summer evening light and great temperatures to wonder around in. As always, we found new places to play at down there. Mischa and Sarah are engaged to be married September 30th, 2006.
