FEATURED | THE KNOT WEBSITE

Last summer I had the privilege of shooting Katie & Dayo’s beautiful country club wedding in Bismarck, North Dakota. K&D were classmates of mine at North Dakota State University, and I was happy to travel back to ND to capture their big day! K&D planned an amazing celebration with so many stunning details, that it caught the eye of the editors at The Knot, and lead to a feature on the website! Check it out right here!

Alicia Swedenborg - hurray! congrats Laura!!
