SANDRA | MINNEAPOLIS BOUDOIR PHOTOGRAPHY

June 3, 2009

What can I say about Sandra? SC is absolutely stunning and such a natural in front of the camera. Every shot was seriously gorgeous. What’s more, SC is such a all-around cool girl. She’s a nursing student, an international traveler and just a great girl! We did much of the shoot indoors, then SC bravely faced thistles, poison ivy, and insects to shoot outside! What a trooper.

Of course, I have to mention the fabulous Hana, of Mani Mela Beauty. Hana totally rocked the hair and makeup and was on hand throughout the shoot to ensure SC was looking her best. Hana even did a couple different looks! I can vouch first hand what a fabulous makeup artist can do, and brides and boudoir clients, I definitely recommend you check Hana out. Enough raving about Hana and SC, on to the pics!

John Sharpe - Laura, i envy you. Italy, Gene Higa, and Jose Villa…win, win, and win.

Laura - John, I have been wanting to do a workshop forever, and I thought this would be the perfect one! Jose Villa hosts another workshop in Mexico that I really wanted to attend, but it was sold out by the time I heard about it. Maybe next year!

Katie - Looks like we are the least exotic stop in your travels. ;-)

denise karis - it’s ok to be jealous, right?

SHERYL + CHRIS

May 29, 2009

Ceremony: Weddings of Wayzata
Reception: Lafayette Club

Sheryl + Chris were married on just about the most perfect day you could possibly wish for. It was warm and sunny and rain didn’t dare impose on their perfectly planned outdoor ceremony! Actually, the entire day went off without a hitch and S+C’s friends and family were so incredible! Sheryl’s brother even got me out on the dance floor, which is a first for me while shooting a wedding. What can I say, I’m better at taking photographs than I am at dancing!

S+C are off enjoying a couple weeks in Maui (which is where I went for my honeymoon too!) and I’m sure they’re having a fabulous time! Here’s a little preview for when they’re back from vacay:
