Grand Forks Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Winter Wedding at The Gorecki Alumni Center with Alexa and Cody

Grand Forks Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Winter Wedding at The Gorecki Alumni Center with Alexa and Cody

Alexa & Cody planned their wedding for December 22 and though we were having a very warm winter with no snow, they were both crossing their fingers for a beautiful snow-filled wedding day. With a bit of luck, we DID get some snow about a week before their wedding day AND the temperatures were actually in the high 20s ABOVE zero (which is odd for us in late December).

We also had some dense morning fog which actually helped give our pre-ceremony photos more of a “winter wonderland” type of feel! Oh…did I mention that Alexa & Cody wanted most of their photos outside in the snow??!! They were such a fun & laid-back couple and we alternated shooting some photos and then warming up in our warm running vehicles.

The ceremony was set for mid-day and was a brief, but beautiful, exchange of vows filled with precious moments in front of the couple’s family and friends. Alexa & Cody shared their first kiss as husband and wife and walked back down the aisle to begin their new lives together!

The reception was amazing filled with the best food from Ground Round and treats by Hugo’s Bakery! Everyone celebrated with a fantastic meal, shared speeches, toasts, and fun stories and then sent the couple off early as they were set to fly out that evening for their short “mini-moon”.

I couldn’t have asked for a better way to end my 2023 wedding season and to usher in Christmas and the New Year!

I had so much fun with Alexa, Cody, and their closest family and friends and I was so honored to be the one trusted to capture their wedding day memories!

Grand Forks Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Summer Wedding at Naastad Acres with Heidi and Dillan

Grand Forks Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Summer Wedding at Naastad Acres with Heidi and Dillan

I was excited as I headed to my favorite wedding venue, Naastad Acres, on July 13th because I knew it was gonna be an amazing day! I had worked with Heidi & Dillan last year for their engagement photos and I had a blast with them so I was really looking forward to being such a huge part of their wedding day.

The day started out a bit toasty with temps in the mid 90’s but that didn’t stop anyone from making sure this was the best day ever! Heidi staged a first look with the groomsmen which was really just a front so she could “ICE” them! The guys all had to bend a knee and chug a can in the blazing sun as the bride laughed.

We hid Dillan in a shaded row of trees while he waited for Heidi and they shared an emotional first look! The rest of the wedding party photos were a breeze as everyone was so fun and easy to work with.

The ceremony was filled with heartfelt emotions and unique moments like a branding ceremony, an original song performed by one of the bride’s close family members, and a guitar solo and song performed by one of the bride’s guitar students.

As the couple shared their first kiss as husband and wife, they were swept away for a ride around the gorgeous property by a horse-drawn carriage from Point Paradise Stables!

Then there was a celebration of the couple in true Naasatd Acres fashion with great food from the Ground Round, music, dancing, and of course…a fireworks display rivaling any 4th of July celebration!

I had so much fun with Heidi, Dillan, and their closest family and friends and I was so honored to be the one trusted to capture their wedding day memories!

Naastad Acres Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Outdoor August Wedding In Hatton, ND With Sande And Jeff

Naastad Acres Wedding Photographer - Elegant Outdoor Summer Wedding In Hatton, ND With Sande And Jeff

I met Sande and Jeff for drinks at The SPUD Jr to chat about their big day and quickly realized what an awesome couple they were and how excited I’d be to photograph their wedding. Planning their wedding was so fun…they live in Colorado so most of our planning was via zoom…but they were always super cool to chat with and I enjoyed every minute.

When their wedding day arrived…it was such a perfect day out for a wedding! Their wedding would take place out at Naastad Acres in Hatton, ND and I always joke with the venue owners that whenever I photograph a wedding at their lovely venue…it’s ALWAYS 95 degrees out with 200% humidity!! But the day of Sande & Jeff’s wedding was sunny and in the high 70’s! Can’t ask for much better!

Everyone involved in the wedding, from the bridal party to family or friends, were all fantastic to work with and most of the afternoon flew by as we were able to capture some amazing moments.

The ceremony was beautiful and filled with laughter and special moments. Sande & Jeff walked back down the isle as newlyweds and were smiling ear to ear as their family & friends cheered them on!

The reception and dance were action packed as I worked up a small sweat playing the FREEZE FRAME game as we had to take photos with Sande & Jeff at each table of guests all within the span of 1 song! Harmon Entertainment kept the place moving the rest of the evening and I was even able to steal the couple away for some epic sunset/nighttime photos!

Naastad Acres finished the night with a BANG as they put on a spectacular fireworks show in honor of the newlyweds!

I had so much fun with Sande, Jeff, and their closest family and friends and I was so honored to be the one trusted to capture their wedding day memories!

Naastad Acres Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Late Summer Wedding In Hatton, ND With Eden And Daniel

It was a beautiful mid-September day out at Naastad Acres in Hatton…the perfect kind of day for a wedding! This particular wedding day belonged to Eden & Daniel. I got the chance to meet and work with the couple last Fall for their engagement session which also took place at Naastad Acres. It was a super chilly afternoon but I had a ton of fun with them and we captured some awesome engagement photos. I knew we’d have a blast on their wedding day!

Their wedding day was just that…a blast! We had perfect weather and Naastad Acres is filled with so many fantastic locations for photos so the day pretty much flew by!

As the ceremony began, Eden & Daniel’s closest friends and family watched as “Rev D” entertained and conducted the service. Eden even prepared a song to sing which blew everyone away! The couple then exchanged rings, vows, and a first kiss and walked back down the isle as husband and wife to the cheers of everyone in attendance.

Then it was time to celebrate…which is ALWAYS a fun time at Naastad Acres! The music was great, the food was delicious, and Eden & Daniel’s day could not have gone any better!

Congrats to the new couple! Thanks so much for choosing me to capture your wedding day memories!

Grand Forks | East Grand Forks | Fargo Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Summer Wedding In Moorhead, MN

I first met with Heidi & Lexi at Rustic Oaks during an Open House event in 2019 at the beautiful rustic venue. I quickly knew that they would be an ideal couple to work with. We had tons of fun on their engagement session at Rustic Oaks and captured some wonderful memories. The wedding couldn’t come soon enough.

But then…the Pandemic burst in and threw the entire world into chaos! Just like all the other 2020 couples, Heidi & Lexi weren’t sure if they could have their ceremony in August. As the date approached and some of the venue restrictions in the state opened up, we decided to go ahead with their ceremony as planned.

After it raining most of the morning, the weather cleared up and we had a beautiful day for an outdoor wedding!

The ceremony was beautiful with lots of fine details spread about the space as family and friends got to witness Heidi & Lexi exchange vows, rings, and a first kiss as a married couple.

Guests then piled into the stunning reception hall at Rustic Oaks and the afterparty kicked off with a bang as Harmon Entertainment kept the place swinging! There was incredible food, drinks, music, dancing, and lots of laughter as everyone celebrated the newlyweds!

Congrats to the new couple! Thanks so much for choosing me to capture your wedding day memories!

Grand Forks | East Grand Forks | Fargo Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Rustic Fall Wedding In Davenport, ND

I first met Shelby & RJ when I drove down to Fargo to shoot an engagement session with them. It was a super hot day out but I had a blast with them as we trekked around the countryside and captured some amazing shots! I knew right away that their wedding day was going to be special and a ton of fun!

Their late October wedding was set at The Pines right outside Fargo in Davenport, ND. The Pines is a truly amazing venue and we couldn’t have asked for better weather in late October for an outdoor ceremony. There were plenty of pre-ceremony special moments such as a groomsmen gift opening, a couple of emotional “first looks” and tons of laughter between all of the family and friends.

The ceremony was beautiful with lots of fine details spread about the space as family and friends got to witness Shelby & RJ exchange vows, rings, and a first kiss as husband and wife all in the late afternoon setting sun.

Guests then piled into the stunning reception hall at The PINES and the afterparty kicked off with a bang! There was incredible food, drinks, music, dancing, and lots of laughter as everyone celebrated the new husband and wife!

I had such a great time and this was the best way possible to end my 2022 wedding season! It was such an honor working with Shelby, RJ, and their families on their special day!

Grand Forks | East Grand Forks | Fargo Wedding Photographer - Beautiful October Wedding In Moorhead, MN

I met Kelsey and Chris when they were part of the bridal party for another couple of mine whose wedding was in 2019. I was thrilled to hear of their own engagement and super excited that they asked me to be their wedding photographer!

They couldn’t have picked a better date for their big day! We had beautiful Fall weather with just a slight breeze which was awesome because October weather can be all over the place. Kelsey and Chris’s day took place at the stunning RiverHaven Events Center in Moorhead, MN which was amazing both inside and out!

It is surrounded by trees, a winding river, and plenty of nature. In fact, during our wedding party photoshoot, we had to move aside as a flock of wild turkeys spread out in a wide line and pecked their way across the field right towards us.

The ceremony was beautiful and brief, taking place in front of a giant panoramic set of windows showcasing all the Fall colors of the trees outside. When it was over, Kelsey and Chris were husband and wife and the newlyweds celebrated with all of their family and friends on an amazing Autumn evening.

I had such an awesome time working with Kelsey and Chris and chatting with their family and friends all day. I’m so lucky and honored to have been a part of their big day!

Congrats to the new couple! Thanks so much for choosing me to capture your wedding day memories!

Grand Forks | East Grand Forks | Fargo Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Rustic Summer Wedding In Hatton, ND

I literally can’t remember when I first met Tayla and Connor…it was definitely BEFORE all of the pandemic craziness. I quickly knew that they would be so much fun to work with and we started their wedding planning journey. But then, due to COVID, we had to postpone and reschedule their wedding another year!

Well, that year was worth the wait! Their wedding day finally came and you couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day! Their day took place at NAASTAD ACRES in Hatton, ND (my absolute favorite venue to work at).

It was a toasty 90 degrees out all day, but the morning was filled with friends and family laughing and building memories together. Everyone was so awesome to work with and I had tons of fun conversations as the morning just flew by!

The ceremony was beautiful in the bright sun with no wind at all. The couple exchanged vows, rings, kissed, and walked back down the isle as husband and wife to cheers and tears of happiness.

Now…if anyone knows how to throw a party…it’s Naastad Acres and Harmon Entertainment! The reception and dance were nonstop fun and action as Tayla & Connor’s family and friends put in their best efforts to celebrate the newlyweds. To cap off their whirlwind of a special day, the couple got to watch a fantastic display of fireworks in their honor!

What a wonderful day for such an amazing couple. I’m so glad that Tayla & Connor stuck with me through the craziness of the past 2 years and we were all able to share their special day together! I feel so lucky and honored to have been the one to work with them these past two years!

Congrats to the new couple! Thanks so much for choosing me to capture your wedding day memories!

Grand Forks | East Grand Forks | Fargo Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Summer Wedding At St. Mary's Church, Grand Forks, ND

I’ve had such an awesome time working with Ruby and Matt over the last year. We met over coffee and I quickly realized that they were a couple I would have a blast working with! Our Spring was so crazy with rain, flooding, and even a late May blizzard…that getting their engagement session planned proved challenging. We finally just went out on a chilly, windy, overcast day and shot some photos. I had so much fun with them and the photos turned out amazing! That’s when I knew that their wedding day was gonna be unforgettable!

The crazy weather seemed to follow us all the way to their wedding day as the forecast was supposed to be 99 degrees with a heat index of 107!!! Luckily, like 75% of the time, the weathermen were WAY off. The temp only reached into the low 80’s which made outdoor photos tons more comfortable and fun. We did have to deal with a slight breeze of 30 mph…but we made due!

The entire wedding party was so laid back and super easy to work with and we shared lots of laughs throughout the day! I really enjoyed chatting with members from both sides of the family and I could see where both Ruby and Matt got their fun outgoing personalities.

Once the ceremony rolled around…the laughs continued, but were accompanied by tears of joy, special moments, rings and vows being exchanged, and a first kiss as husband and wife!

The reception was packed and all of Ruby and Matt’s family and friend’s celebrated the newlyweds in grand fashion! What an action packed day!

It’s always so cool to be there to see how all of our months of planning finally come together and I get to witness another family being created!

Grand Forks | East Grand Forks | Fargo Wedding Photographer - Beautiful Outdoor Fall Wedding At Bonazaville U.S.A., Fargo, ND

2020 is almost over and I FINALLY have a bit of time to get caught up on posting my Fall weddings! This one was the Fall wedding of DeAnn & Thomas! I met them (and their son Maverick) last year and got to travel to Jamestown to do their engagement photos. I had a blast with them as we trekked all over Jamestown to shoot photos. We took a break for some warm coffee & tea and had a beautiful sunset to close out our session.

Their wedding was special, not only to them, but to me as well…you see, their September 19th wedding happened to be my 6 year wedding anniversary date! My wife and I were married on that date in 2014 in Duluth, MN!

DeAnn & Thomas chose to get married at Bonazaville USA in West Fargo. It’s a historical museum with no shortage of cool and unique areas for amazing photographs! It was as nice of a day out as you could have asked for…except for one small thing…the ND wind! The 20 mph winds made the outdoor photos a bit challenging but we were still able to have fun, get some great shots, and most importantly…capture the emotions and memories of their special day!

Both families treated me so well and it was amazing to get to mingle with them all day! We even were blessed with another beautiful sunset! And the yummy desserts that the groom’s mother made were icing on the cake (pun intended)!

Congrats to the new couple! Thanks so much for not only choosing me to capture your wedding day memories, but for sticking with me through the craziness of the pandemic this past year!

P.S….I’ll never forget your anniversary!!

Grand Forks Wedding Show-338.JPG

Late last Fall, I was having a talk with JoAnn who is one of the owners of Naastad Acres in Hatton, ND and we had an idea of putting on our very own wedding/bridal show right at Naastad Acres. It didn’t take long to decide that we wanted to bring that idea to life and so…Bliss In The Barn was created!

Over the next few months, we got together with some of the area’s leading wedding professionals and, together, we all started planning Bliss In The Barn. We wanted to do something unique where brides-to-be could not only talk to wedding vendors about products and services, but could also see those products and services “in action” during Bliss In The Barn’s 4 different styled mock weddings!

After months of hard work, April 14th finally came and we were so pleased with how everything turned out! We learned a lot throughout this process and we are already figuring out improvements for next year’s event because, after all, our goal was to create something that will be around for years to come!

We had 26 top notch wedding vendors, 48 V.I.P. brides, a V.I.P. Experience, 4 styled mock weddings, and even a Grand Prize that was valued in the thousands of dollars! And we can’t wait to do it again next year….and even bigger AND better!

All of our event’s wedding vendor’s were so amazing and you can see some of their incredible work in the photos below! Our vendors included:
