My name is Emily.

I love people in love.

I cry at every wedding.

I own a striped umbrella. Everyone should.

I love my pug. His name is Edward.

I dream of having a house with enough closet hooks for my scarves and hats.

Laughing is great.

I believe there is nothing better than a day with the people you love.

And I absolutely love to take photos.


And this is my blog. Expect to see people in love, expect to laugh and read, and expect to see what I love and why I love it! Welcome to my blog. I am glad you are here.

On one of the snowiest days yet this year I headed out with one my photog friends (BP Photo) to capture Brent and Tracy's wedding as they exchanged vows on a blustery Saturday night in Minnesota. Their wedding was absolutely gorgeous and the nine inches of snow that fell didn't stop their wedding or their party! Not only was Tracy, who is the most beautiful winter bride I might add, ready with her fur shall, Ugg boots and super cute gloves...but the wedding party was totally into it as well---we shot quite a few pictures outside with the glistening snow flakes falling in front of the lens which turned out just perfect!

Her little daughter Hayli was twirling and running around with sheer excitement for her Mommy all day...I guess I just happened to catch her sitting down for a few seconds.

Like I said they were troopers every time we asked them to go outside for a few...

Beau had this idea to go outside and steal the snowblower from the cute old man that was snowblowing the sidewalks for the wedding, and again, Tracy and Brent were all smiles to do it. From the look on Tracy's face I think this may have been the first time she had ever laid hands on one of these things...

They had met at Brines in downtown Stillwater so we had to stop their for a few shots before heading to The Grand for their reception....and who doesn't love a kiss on the pool table??? :)

And off we go outside again...a quick walk down the street and then onto the middle of the street to stop traffic for a quick wedding party shot and we were D.U.N...done!
