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!

Maggie & Jason

I’ve known Ms. Maggie for a few years, so when she asked Milestones to photograph her wedding I was beyond thrilled. Maggie has a great way about her: smiley, positive and always fun to be around. Maggie and Jason are a great match and we are so happy they let us document their wedding.

The intimate wedding was held on Sky Prairie (the rooftop of the Hotel Donaldson) with a reception at the HoDo Restaurant in downtown Fargo.

Anybody who has been married in Cass County (North Dakota) knows you get this fine gift of beef coupons and recipes from the District 7 Cattlewomen.

Oh, and did I mention there were Zombies?

Heidi & Drew

Gorgeous is the main word that comes in mind when I think of Heidi & Drew’s winter wedding. Gorgeous couple, gorgeous wedding party, flowers, ceremony, gorgeous reception…. gorgeous all around! And even though it was really, really, cold outside, Heidi and Drew braved the North Dakota climate is sneak outside for one or two portraits. They are both gorgeous and hardy.

Penny and I had a great time documenting their wedding at First Lutheran Church in downtown Fargo. The reception was held at the (gorgeous) Fargo Country Club.

Drew (and his family) own Corwin Automotive Group in Fargo… so, of course, autos were represented.

Casey & Matt

A little bit of rain didn’t dampen a whole lotta fun at Casey and Matt’s wedding. They didn’t want to see each other prior to the ceremony at First Lutheran and Matt was very patient when forced to sit by himself at the end of a hall while Casey and the ladies had their turn at photos in the sanctuary. We enjoyed a walk in the rain to the Avalon reception after the ceremony where Carmen the Cactus really rocked out.

Congrats Casey and Matt!

Lindsay & Brandon

First post of 2010!

Lindsay and Brandon rocked their wedding day. The weather was colder and wetter than we’d hoped but they were total troopers. Fun and laughter lasted all day at the salon, Hope South and really picked up at Mick’s Office where there is now a ceiling tile dedicated to the couple.

Ann and I had a great day with you, Lindsay and Brandon!

2009 WPJA Q3 Winners!

Both Dave and I were winners this round of the Wedding Photojournalists Association quarterly contest. Woo!

Dave earned a 17th place in the Humor Category with a photograph from Ellen & Wesley’s wedding day. Cool tattoo, huh?

I was lucky in the humor category as well. Check out my eight place win for a photo I took at Laura & Brant’s spring wedding.

I also took a 16th place in the weather category of Amy (of Amy & Justin).

Kate & Beau

I am so excited to post pictures from Kate & Beau’s autumn wedding as it was the first wedding I photographed after my return to Milestones and it was quite a splendid occasion. Kate was probably one of the most laid back brides I’ve ever photographed and Beau was just plain goofy (in a good way, of course) and a bit camera shy. My favorite color was everywhere (purple) and Kate and Beau’s entire bridal party and respective families were super nice.

They were married at Nativity Catholic Church in Fargo with a reception at the Radisson Hotel in downtown Fargo. I was joined by the always fabulous Mo.

Kristel & Shane

dave — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 15:00:35 +0000

Kristel and Shane had a fantastic wedding at Hope South that included some Greek traditions – Kristel’s mother is a native of Greece. We really enjoy any time we get the chance to photograph new ceremonial elements.

The day capped off with a cocktail reception at the always great Plains Art Museum.

Marie & David

dave — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 18:00:52 +0000

New York met Scandinavia during Marie and David’s wedding in Fargo. Morea and I met up with the bridal party at the Fargo Ramada as they were getting ready and the fun was in full swing. The couple didn’t want to see each other before the ceremony so some stealth was required to keep each other hidden.

The ceremony at Hope South was every bit as perfect as you could want and their first sight of each other was great. A limo ride, some time at the HoDo and then the reception back at the Ramada capped off the evening.

Congrats, Marie and David!
