This “girly fall” inspired late-October wedding day felt like I was transported to summer! Bride Nicole’s goal was using a lot of pink with pops of fall colors for her floral, pearls, lace, and opulence. This day was a timeless vision! Some of my highlights of the day included the first look with the bridesmaids AND groomsmen, the florals and table chargers, the emotion and love between Nicole and Christian and their love for their people, and the final photos of the night in the courtyard! Enjoy taking a glimpse into this beautiful day!

Meet Madeline and Matt! I’m excited to finally be showing their fall engagement photos at Wayzata Beach. These two have very sweet and loving personalities. Our session was easy-going and fun and LOVE that they brought their pup along. I love this location in fall and they killed it with their outfits! Their casual look paired perfectly with the park, and her dresses were the perfect vibe for the lake. Get your pinning finger ready for her last blue dress!! They’re getting married on the same weekend that they met at the beautiful new venue, The Whim, in Minneapolis. How fun is that!? A sentimental date that they’ll never forget. Too excited to capture their wedding!

Vibrant, heartfelt, intimate, joy-filled. Four of the perfect words to describe Greta and Drew’s beautiful wedding! They had the PERFECT weather, a whimsical invitation suite, vibrant florals, timeless attire, and gorgeous reception details. Wedding planner Sarah Trotter with Lasting Impressions always blows me away! These two love each other and everyone around them fiercely. They were beyond a pleasure to work with and watching their love on display at their wedding is such a treat!
