Samantha and Parker

dave — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 20:24:55 +0000

Way, way, way back in September, beautiful Samantha and Parker tied the knot. Their wedding day was fabulous, laid back (a friday affair) and sweet (like them). Not to mention the weather was about perfect.

Sam and Parker met quite a few years ago during confirmation class at United Methodist Church in Fargo, the very church where they were hitched. After all these years, Sam has kept the promise ring Parker gave her way back when. It was so great the she incorporated it into their day.

Sam had been working on her killer arm muscles to prepare for the big day. We had to grab a shot for her personal trainer.

Both Sam and Parker are very, very proud of the fact that they attended Concordia College in Moorhead… so, naturally, we had to take a few portraits at the local college. Oh, and did you know that it’s bad luck to walk under the bell tower until your married? The happy couple was thrilled to finally walk under the tower as husband and wife!

Their cocktail reception and dance was held at the Fargo Country Club.

Congrats Sam and Parker!

Sarah & Doyle

Sarah and I have known each other since college so it was a thrill to photographer her marriage to Doyle. (EDITOR’S NOTE: I went back to school in my mid-20s and Sarah is much younger than me. *ahem*) The ceremony was a one-time chance for us at the Fargo Theatre because they don’t normally allow wedding ceremonies to be held there – unless you’re the awesomeness that is Sarah.

Ann and I loved being part of the day and, as you can see from these photos, it was a great party.

Doyle made a new friend on Broadway.

I love the randomness of this photo.

Sarah and Doyle needed a photo with Marge Gunderson.

College roommates, sharing the joy.

The wedding ceremony was basically an awesome concert with some wedding vows thrown in. Brooks West (below), Josh Harty and Brennen & Seth played absolutely great music that will be difficult to top.

Kristen & Kyle

As the weather turns colder and the leaves are gone it’s getting difficult to look at our wedding photos from earlier this fall. Remember short sleeves and green leaves?

Kristen and Kyle had a beautiful wedding in downtown Fargo at First Presbyterian Church and reception at the Avalon. The church is absolutely one of the best places in town to photograph a ceremony and Kristen and Kyle looked great in this backdrop.

Such a fun couple and cool locations. We had a great time, Kristen and Kyle!

Amanda & James

Outdoors weddings are always exciting in the Upper Midwest and it proved to have a sense of humor for Amanda and James’ wedding. The clouds teased us most of the day and the only rain we saw was in the five minutes that the bridal party needed to walk to the covered ceremony site at Trollwood. A little bit of water didn’t ruin a thing and just added to the great story of their day.

His PRIDE and JOY … get it?!

*ahem*

Sneak Peek: Georgia & Nick

Only five weeks ago we photographed her sister’s wedding and last Saturday was Georgia and Nick’s turn. Beautiful fall light streamed through the stained glass windows at St. Mary’s while we photographed the happy couple. It was a day of fun, flirting and energy. Congratulations!

Kaela & Derek

Kaela and Derek had a beautiful August wedding at Hope South in Fargo. Kaela surprised everyone by singing to Derek during the ceremony – it was a wonderful moment. There were lots of tears during her song!

The weather was great for outdoor photos and we had a lot of fun at Island Park. We had a fun moment with Kaela and some unsuspecting tennis players by convincing them to pose for a photo.

It was a great day, Kaela and Derek!

Carmen & Craig

The day of Carmen and Craig’s wedding was warm but it was a gorgeous day – lot’s of sun and great people. We love to shoot ceremonies at Nativity because of the great light on the altar and their’s was no different. The way Carmen and Craig smiled at each other all day was inspiring and we were so glad to be there with them. Congrats!

Becca & Brian

It’s Big Blog Friday!

Becca and Brian’s held their Fargo ceremony and reception at the Hilton on a day we managed to avoid rain while doing our fun outdoor photos. If anybody was nervous they did a great job of hiding their jitters – everyone had a great time from the word go.

It was great spending the day with you, Becca and Brian!

Amanda & Travis

I really don’t know if Amanda could have looked any more gorgeous on her wedding day. LOVED the dress. The bridal party was loads of fun and were willing to try just about anything we asked of them – good troopers! The ceremony was held at St. Mary’s with another great reception at the Ramada.

Congrats, Amanda and Travis!

Amanda & Matt

Amanda and Matt had a few great ideas for their engagement portrait session, but they left the location hunting for me. One of my favorite things to do when I take portraits is to go on mini adventures with my clients. I feel most creative when I discover new places for the first time and I think it’s a lot of fun to find those places with my clients. We found a couple super vintagey locations off 8th street south in Fargo. The bikes and Lincoln, the adorable Great Dane puppy, were brought along by Amanda and Matt.

Thanks guys for a super fun session. I can’t wait until your September wedding!
