I am head-over-heels in love with my friends. They love me enough to not only encourage me in this really amazing adventure but also allow me to witness portions of their lives that few get to see. I find that I become so overwhelmed with emotion at times because I truly believe I have the most amazing friends in the world.
Take Amy & Phil for example. They were married Saturday on an unusually gorgeous Minneapolis day. Amy was so stunning; Phil was so handsome. Their vows held laughter and tears and spoke volumes into the lives of this couple who couldn’t be more perfect for each other. What a life these two have ahead of them.
Caroline Yang was their (incredible!) wedding photographer but they were gracious enough to ask me to photograph the before and after.
There is quite the story behind these shoes and they sort-of took on a life of their own at the wedding but as the pictures can testify; they were worth every penny.
Her dress was breathtaking.
Without these two, I think Amy and Phil would have gone to City Hall. (Pretty sure Amy still would have worn her Louboutins.)
Very rarely do you see a family with such kindness and laughter with each other. I just loved his entire family.
Amy’s mom and dad are the sweetest (and he was rocking a pink shirt at the Groom’s Dinner – love him!).
so very beautiful! :)
Oh, how I love W hotels. And pretty shoes. And pretty white dresses. I THese are great M!
I think you meant to say you are head over RED heels in love….
I finally got to see THE SHOES. but I still need to know….were they comfortable?
The shoes were comfortable – only took them off for a short break late in the evening.
Mel — You are a photography goddess. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. We owe you big time, you camera DIVA!

Oh my gosh — these are just beautiful. I especially love the "ring" photos and the photo of my beautiful daughter putting her makeup on in the mirror. Thanks so much! Kathy von Walter
Oh my goodness. What sweet images! Love the ring shots!
My gosh girl – you are sooooooo amazing – I love the picture of the shoe w/the ring on the underside of it – and love the 'vera wang' tag one – so creative! I am going to have to copy some of your ideas! So great!
I love the ones of Phil grooving with his sunglasses. You are right – they are gorgoues and you captured it really well.
Love the detail shots at the beginning!! What a fabulous place for a wedding, too!
Love the pics of him getting ready and the ring shots!! :) xx
Her feather head piece was so perfect! I adore it. What a fun wedding!
Wow, this couple has great style. Shoes = fabulous. Photography is even better! Love this set!
What incredible pictures! I’m smitten with her gorgeous bracelet!
