~R~ Wedding 7~18~15 {Southern Minnesota Wedding Photographer}

 I had a clump of weddings booked this summer. I had two weekends back to back which was hard, but fun. This was my last summer wedding and it was beautiful. I love weddings. I get excited for the day and they are over in a flash. Capturing the moments brings me such joy. 

These two were so much fun to work with. Relaxed and purely happy. 

Here is the info: 

Bride's dress: Alure Bridal

Bridesmaids dresses:Belsoie 

Decorations done by Jenna Buyck with the bride's personal collection of vases and old boxes.

Sweetness

I have to say, this was the most entertaining wedding ceremony EVER. 

Minnesota sunset in July can't be beat.

So, I love this family. Their oldest is good friends with my boy and they are just too much fun. We got to hang out at the family farmstead and the boys were in their tractor glory! We missed the big storms that day and beautiful overcast night, just like C wanted :-) 

When's my turn??

So cute! 

Such a handsome little boy!

These kids love their tractors!

It's serious business. 

Such a great looking family!

All smiles! 

The first time all three of them were on the tractor, they boys were in heaven! 

Thank you Z family! I can't wait to work with you again!

I love shooting weddings outside. I love lakes. This wedding was a win-win! I was so excited to be out by the water and watch this lovely couple say I do under the trees. It was hot, but there was a small breeze from the lake and thankfully there was some shade. 

I had a lot of fun with this couple and their bridal party. They were up for anything and you could just feel the joy and happiness that they were feeling. 

This couple is too cute, and so in love!

It is so fun for me to try to get different angles during a corset lace-up. 

The bride wore her mother's veil. 

I love the anticipation!

Oh emotion...

The peacock feathers were beautiful!

So happy!

We had some fun with the bridal party!

At first the chain link fence annoyed me...then I thought...we don't have a brick wall...why not??

This reception was so fun!

The bride surprised her new husband with a personal dance!

This was L's attitude all night, fun, light hearted and HAPPY! 

Thank you A & L for allowing me to capture your day! I had so much fun with you guys and I wish you so much joy and happiness in the years to come!!
