MINNEAPOLIS LIFESTYLE SESSION ON FILM | LAURA & TODOR

We are doing a little happy dance around our sunroom as we prepare these images of Laura & Todor to share with you today!! Laura is a friend of ours who happens to be an amazing film photographer in the Twin Cities! We are constantly in awe of Laura's absolutely beautiful images and have somewhat adopted her as our little family photographer ever since our first session with Laura in 2010, which is something that we are so grateful for! ;) There is truly something to be said about choosing a photographer whose personality puts you at ease and who you can truly be yourselves around! And for us, that is Laura! Her approach to shooting a session is so relaxed yet fun and she has an energy that immediately puts you at ease in front of her camera. We knew that it was about time to update the photos on our website and there wasn't a hint of a doubt that Laura was the one we hoped would capture us on film :) As we started chatting and preparing for our session, it turned out that she & Todor were also hoping to be photographed by a film shooter! We were slightly nervous and super honored to hear that we would be photographing a photographer who we look up to SO much!! Laura is a huge inspiration to us and just thinking about the fact that she would be on the other side of our cameras filled us with excitement. Just a few days after Laura visited Wausau for our session, we headed to Minneapolis to meet Laura, Todor & their sweet pup Bianca. We had a blast photographing and chatting with them! Laura & Todor are both incredibly easy going and stylish, and the chilly temps made them extra cuddly which we thought was absolutely perfect :) Together, Laura & Todor love to see the world. Their travels are well documented and after seeing them cozy up together, it is easy to picture them strolling the streets of Paris or roaming around Todor's home country of Bulgaria! Photographing these two was an absolute thrill for us, as it's not every day we get to photograph the photographer who inspires us!! It makes us smile from ear to ear that we can call this adorable couple friends!

FEATURED MINNEAPOLIS WEDDING | STYLE ME PRETTY BLOG

We couldn't possibly be more excited right now!!! Heather & Joe's absolutely stunning Minneapolis wedding is featured on Style Me Pretty's blog today! Heather & Joe put SO much detailed & heartfelt thought into every aspect of their wedding day, and it definitely didn't go unnoticed! Every detail was completely gorgeous and 100% fitting for the two of them and their relationship as they incorporated their love of Lake Harriet, running, their passion for each other, and the many places they've explored together into their wedding celebration. Throughout the planning process we knew that Heather was swooning over the soft & lovely feel of Style Me Pretty's features (we really cannot sing the praises of this wedding blog enough!!), and have no doubt she must be giddy to see her very own wedding day splashed across their front page!! After pouring your heart into each detail and carefully planning for months, could there be anything sweeter than seeing your beautiful day shared as inspiration for other brides on the most beautiful wedding blog?

We are so thrilled for Heather & Joe - they are an amazing couple who are just an absolute joy to be around! We feel so grateful to have documented their love story :)

MADISON WISCONSIN WEDDING ON FILM | ELLEN & ADAM

Ellen and Adam fit perfectly together. They are both extremely thoughtful & intelligent, absolutely loving, and after being around them for a matter of minutes you can immediately tell that they truly appreciate one another for exactly who they are! Their wedding day had a lovely mix of rain and the most gorgeous sunset we have ever seen -- which led to all of us doing backflips over the beautiful setting where we were able to photograph the two of them and their awesome wedding party! We are over-the-moon excited to share the images we created with Ellen & Adam and couldn't be more grateful to have been a part of their wedding celebration!!

DOOR COUNTY ON FILM

Butch grew up in Door County and we always love our trips back to visit, whether it is to photograph some of our awesome clients or to enjoy a bottle of amazing wine & cookout on the Green Egg with Butch's parents! No matter the occasion that brings us back, it is usually a mix of work and play which we LOVE! Just last month we had a weekend off - slightly crazy for October, but we were determined to make the most of it and enjoy every second! :) After chatting with Anna, we decided it was the perfect opportunity to plan a weekend in Door County. Originally the two of us & our cute lumberjack husbands planned to do a bit of fall camping, but the weather forecast kindly suggested we would have a more comfortable weekend if we were to stay at Butch's parents' house ;) And so we did! The result was a weekend of non-stop playtime with coffee dates, grilling salmon & steaks, hiking along the beach of Newport State Park on a perfect fall day, being spoiled with massive breakfasts, and enjoying one final bonfire of the season complete with s'mores. We had the best time and really couldn't be more grateful for a sweet clients who turn into two of your favorite friends!

Cheers & happy weekend to you! Here's a look back at one of our favorites :)
