It is no lie that this winter has been a tad chilly.  Ok, really chilly.  Today was 50 degrees.  The sun was warm.  Water is everywhere around the farm.  EVERYWHERE.

While I was watching Gertie Lu play in the water,  I just want to remind everyone to enjoy every moment with your loved ones.  No matter what.  Hold them close to your heart.  Capture real life.  Dirty or clean.  Enjoy this beautiful ride we are on.  Splash through deep puddles.  Laugh lots.  Always be kind.  Live in the moment.  Snap a picture of two.  Live fearlessly.

There is just something about second shooting.  No pressure.  It is a time for me to relax and really try to step out of my comfort zone and capture images from a different perspective.  Each photographer I get to work with I learn something new.  Ananda was no different.  She was photographing this fantastic wedding as a destination wedding.  How perfect and beautiful.  A destination wedding in Northern Minnesota.  I jumped at the opportunity to help her.

I don’t know much, but I’ll tell you what I do know.  The bride (Elizabeth) is from Minnesota.  She and her Groom (Joseph) decided to use her family’s cabin (which has been in her family for 75 years) as the starting place.  The actual ceremony and reception took place at Appledoorn’s resort.  Beautiful.  Not to mention, Elizabeth wore her Grandmother’s dress.  It was fantastic.

Thank you Ananda for asking me to help you.  It was a fantastic day.

I’ve said it a million times before, but I just love weddings.  I love everything about them.  The excitement, the craziness, the raw emotions. This wedding was no different.  Full of raw emotion that speaks straight to my heart.

What a great day it was.  Thank you so much Heather & Mikey for sharing it with us.  We love you guys.

I love this little family.  Love them.  I’ve been with Abby & Kelly from the beginning (I’ll do a flashback of their wedding soon).  Every year I get to photograph them and every year I think it can’t get any better.  Every year proves that it just gets sweeter and sweeter.  Not to mention that they are adorable.  When I photograph them, every moment is so real.  Real life.  Every minute I get to spend with them is such a  joy and a wonderful adventure.

Abby and Kelly, I can not thank you enough for sharing your beautiful Family with me every year.  I love you guys.
XOXO- Krissy

Oh sweet Mila.  You are so beautiful.  I am so blessed that I was able to photograph you at only 7 days old.

Thank you so much Anne & Eric for welcoming me into your home to photograph your beautiful little girl.  Mila is perfect in every way.
