Matt & Vanessa’s Cokato Engagement

I can’t describe how crazy it feels to take pictures of a couple of lovebirds, when one of them happens to be a girl I baby sat.  When I stepped back into Vanessa’s house, we immediately started recounting the memories we had, when I was young and she was younger!  I remember chasing Vanessa and her siblings around the living room, talking and laughing, making cookies and making a bigger mess.  Waaaay too much fun.  Now this beautiful girl is getting married.  Matt and Vanessa seem almost 10 years older than they are, because their love is so steady and mature.  I had such a great time catching up and getting to know them together.  It was an extremely bright day, but I guess that made the Cokato scenery a little more surreal than usual.  I hope you enjoy!

Oh my gosh.  Sweet happiness.

Thanks, Matt & Vanessa, for the pleasure of capturing your love.  I can’t wait to see you guys in June!

Jon & Krissy are Engaged!

Look at these two cuties!  I have known Krissy for 10 years, and can’t believe this beautiful girl is getting married!  Krissy is bubbly, hard-working, extremely smart and a loyal friend.  And I think she has found the man that is going to keep up with her!  Jon and Krissy have known each other for several years, but when they first started dating, they knew almost instantly that they were meant to be together.  Jon is a steady and sweet man, and when I see these two together, I know they’re going to have a beautiful life together!  Congrats, you two!

I can’t get over you guys!  You’re adorable!

Isn’t Krissy beautiful?

Love this photo of Jon. :)

Thank you guys SO MUCH for the fun engagement shoot!  You two are so sweet and I can’t wait to see you on your wedding day!

xoxo,

Shawn & Chelsea’s Stone Arch Engagement

If you are single, or looking to meet really nice people, listen up.  Swing Dancing with DJ Terry Gardner is the place to be.  How do I know this?  Well, I happen to have met my darlin’ hubby swing dancing.  And if you remember last July, I took photos for David and Amy’s wedding, and their love blossomed on the dance floor (they happen to be a super awesome couple).  And now, I introduce to you Shawn and Chelsea, who also met swing dancing!  They are as sweet as sugar and I can’t wait to take photos at their wedding!  Shawn and Chelsea met about 7 years ago and Chelsea knew right away that Shawn was the guy she wanted to spend the rest of her life with, and little by little over time (and through many stress engagement dreams of Chelsea’s!), Shawn came to see that he couldn’t live without Chelsea either.  I am so happy for these two!

Shawn looks so dapper!

True love and dance moves… it doesn’t get any better!

Isn’t Chelsea absolutely stunning?

Towards the end of the shoot, the light became absolutely perfect.  I can’t get enough of Shawn and Chelsea AND the beautiful background of Minneapolis!

I had to put this picture on this blog post, because Chelsea’s hands are so pretty and graceful.

Congrats again, you two love birds!  Your love for one another is so evident and so free.  You are beautiful together.

Kassy :)
