Boudoir Portraits – Jena

Anne — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 18:12:01 +0000

My very first boudoir portrait shoot! I think both Jena and I were a bit nervous, but after awhile we both just relaxed and had fun! Doesn’t Jena look so pretty?! We did the shoot in her bedroom and the light was incredible – so soft and romantic.

Boudoir portraits are a fantastic groom’s gift. Jena wanted her wedding gift to Tom to be super special and knew that this would totally surprise him. Jena chose her favorites and we designed an absolutely beautiful album for Tom, and I know for a fact that he loved his wedding gift! Thank you Jena and Tom for letting me share these absolutely gorgeous photos!

Take note 2012 brides!! If you want to surprise your spouse with something totally unexpected – boudoir portraits are a classy and sexy gift! :)

Featured – A Northwoods Wedding, Stephanie & David

Love the ladies at A Northwoods Wedding – their enthusiasm is authentic and contagious! Recently, they featured Stephanie and David’s engagement/rehearsal photos. Did you know that Jenna (from A Northwoods Wedding) is actually FROM Esko, Minnesota! Such a small world…well, in the Midwest anyway! Thanks so much, Jenna and Britt!

I asked Stephanie and David to share a bit more about their rehearsal and wedding, here is what they shared: “Our wedding venue could not have been more appropriate. David proposed in a sauna which made Hemlock Preserve in Esko, Minnesota an easy choice. We wanted to welcome our family and friends to a place that was distinctly Minnesotan. The dairy barn converted into an event space accompanied by a Finnish wood-fired sauna provided a simple and comforting welcome to our weary wedding travelers. In total we had 60 guests which was the perfect amount to fill the barn loft for the dinner. Food was catered by B & B in neighboring Cloquet, MN which Hemlock organized. Stephanie’s aunts provided the traditional Indonesian delicacies for dessert. The venue lent itself towards simple decor with the focus on sharing this time with our guests. Flowers were re-used the next day for the wedding. Anne Ingman’s stunning photographs captured the ‘feeling’ we had that afternoon, finally being able to relax and enjoy our time with guests after months of anticipation. After the dinner, the sauna was ready which offered a unique memory for us and our friends.” Thanks Stephanie and David!

Life got a little crazy and I haven’t had a chance to post about our feature on Etsy! Honestly, Etsy is one of my favorite places online because I know that I will always find something unique. Handmade and vintage treasures abound. When Christine (from Etsy) contacted me about featuring our house on their Get the Look Decor blog – I was thrilled! The post includes a collage of each room in our house with items linked below that are similar in style and feel. Fun, right?! Thanks so much, Etsy!

St. Paul, Minnesota – Jena & Tom’s Wedding

Anne — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 02:43:33 +0000

I’ve been so excited to share these portraits from Jena and Tom’s wedding. The original 1943 chapel of Roseville Lutheran was absolutely charming and a perfect choice for Jena and Tom’s “first look.” Isn’t Jena stunning as a bride?! Tom, you were looking pretty great as well :)

Jena and Tom are a fantastic couple - laid back but totally organized. My kind of bride and groom! After the ceremony we headed down to Upper Landing in downtown St. Paul for some additional portraits and fun with the wedding party. Shooting right before sunset does not disappoint – absolutely gorgeous light.

My friend Paige, from de Wees Photography second shot for me and some of her images are displayed below. Congratulations Jena and Tom – it was truly an honor to spend the day with you both!

Arlo Seven Months

Remember this little guy? Here is Arlo at an adorable age of seven months – just as happy as a clam! I loved when Avery snuck into a few of his little brother’s portraits – what a great pair they make!

Columbus, Minnesota- Eichmeyer Family

Anne — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 23:18:42 +0000

Luke and my husband Jake grew up together, and I was so pleased to be able to photograph this new family of four. We all had fun exploring their acreage in Columbus, and were able to take advantage of the last bit of gorgeous fall weather. Three year old Asher was on the move for most of our shoot, but five week old Jory was content as can be. I really enjoyed our afternoon together – thanks Kelly and Luke!

Featured – A Paper Proposal, April & David

April and David’s crafty, rustic, Enchanted Barn wedding was featured on A Paper Proposal! Sarah, from A Paper Proposal, loves everything pretty – especially wedding stationary. I thought April and David’s crafty paper filled wedding was a perfect fit. Check out A Paper Proposal for lots of inspired weddings! Thanks so much Sarah!

Another wonderful shout out from Sarah, at A Paper Proposal!

Minneapolis Family Portrait – Lydia Six Months

Anne — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 02:09:07 +0000

Baby Lydia is six months old, and getting more adorable every time I see her! She was a total champ during our chilly afternoon shoot – seriously, not a moment of fuss out of her. Lydia’s bright blue eyes were shining and her crazy cute hair was catching the light just right. Only recently mastered sitting up, I was very impressed with her confidence. It is always a pleasure, Megan and Chris. Enjoy this special time, and I look forward to Lydia’s one year portraits!
