I met Mara and Jon back in September of 2011. I knew from their personalities that getting to work with them was going to be fun. Mara and Jon had a story of incredible effort and persistence in getting their venue booked for their wedding. For their Minneapolis wedding they booked the Millennium Garden in [...] December 30, 2012byBill
A little break between Minneapolis weddings has provided some time for portrait work. This past week I had a professional come in for a portrait session but I also had the pleasure of some more “fun” work. I shot Bailey’s 2013 Senior Session as well as The M Family’s annual portrait session. It was great [...] August 27, 2012byBill
Kaitlin and Alex’s Wedding Day was in June of this year. Both the ceremony and reception took place at Como Park. This wedding was a bit different for me as I did not get to spend much time with bride and groom prior to the wedding day. Mainly due to the fact that they reside [...] July 21, 2012byBill
Lisa and Dan were married May 26th of this year at the Afton Apple Orchard. It was my first wedding of 2012. I have now shot three this year and finally found sometime to showcase Lisa and Dan’s day. Lisa and Dan were such nice people to work with… I can hardly think of it [...] July 8, 2012byBill
I headed out to Watertown, MN on Mother’s Day to meet Sarah and Krist. We had spoken briefly on the phone and exchanged several emails. I was excited to meet them as well as finally see some of Watertown as I had never been there. I was meeting them at Sarah’s Grandfather’s farm which has [...] June 3, 2012byBill
I met Tracy and Preston for the first time early this year. At that point not much had been finalized so when they booked me I only pretty much knew the date of the wedding so it was fun to hear of it all coming together. I was excited to know they were having an [...] October 20, 2011byBill
I have been wanting to redo my website for sometime. I think I had the old version for two years or so. I wanted something a little brighter as well as something that showcased my work a little better. I am happy with this new site. I have some work to do yet but it [...] October 5, 2011byBill
As is my SOP I share a couple of images from weddings I shoot as I dive into editing and processing them. Here are two shots taken right at the start of everything last Saturday. The first image was taken just prior to the “First Look” and the other was taken just after. It was [...] September 29, 2011byBill
I once shot a wedding as a second photographer where I asked the lead photographer “What camera do you have for a backup?” To which they replied “I do not have one.”. This was the first wedding I ever shot but even I knew you never, ever, go to a wedding as a photographer armed [...] September 25, 2011byBill
I saw a video today of a wedding photographer speaking as to what he loves about what he does. He was very eloquent in putting words to the same sorts of feelings I have. I have had to work at setting emotions to the side when shooting a wedding. By nature I am an emotional [...] August 22, 2011byBill
