Minnehaha Falls

I recently moved just blocks from one of my favorite places to photograph - Minnehaha Park. It's been such a hectic summer that I haven't been able to fully take advantage of it! About 2 weeks ago my sister & I headed over to finally get some shots.

married!

July 28th I married my best friend! We got married at the Church of St. Albert the Great in South Minneapolis and had our reception at the MN History Center. We could not have had a more gorgeous day, surrounded by more gorgeous guests with the most gorgeous backdrop! We have the most amazing friends and family who have supported us over the past five years! The Sunday after our wedding we had an informal BBQ at the Tony Schmitt Park in Roseville. I can't wait to get our professional photographs from the ever so talented and sweet Leah Maria Photography.

In the meantime, here are some that I shot throughout the weekend and some from friends
{you know I had to have my point & shoot in my husband's pocket all weekend!}
