I found my croc soulmate! Joan wore crocs for her wedding shoes – love it!! 🙂 Andy and I did our secret bridal lift to get Joan up in the tree for their signature shot, and Josh added a sweet wood grain overlay to really give the tall tree image a little pop. Trellis is such a cool outdoor ceremony location, and this wedding wins the “Cutest crawling kid” award for easily the last decade… there was also a fun moment where I was chased around by the flower girl who had rebounded nicely from a pre-wedding wipeout!

During creative time, we took a little different route past Teddy Bear Park and found some cool doors and blossoms complete with a photo bomber. We love being photographers in Stillwater, there is literally a cool backdrop every 10 feet in this town. Andy and Joan were so chill – it was so great to have the privilege of capturing your wedding, and we will never forget the awesome boat engagement session! Check out the slideshow for some very cool video moments as well. 🙂 -Judd and Josh

How can you go wrong with a day that starts with a shot (not a picture) with the bride at Neumann’s?! What an amazingly fun day – “It’s gettin real!” Bretta kept telling me as the day approached.  Bretta walked into our studio about four years ago for some pictures of her son, Todd, and now we have done two weddings in their family including Ray and Sandy.  It is so fun to be there for multiple special occasions with families!  Kurt treats her so well and is so awesome with Todd it was very cool to watch.

Todd was a little confused with the gold wedding dress, but hey, that’s what makes your mom unique!  It was a little chilly getting images outside but we nabbed some awesome ones at Pioneer Park and the ones in front of the tin wall we had to pull some teeth to get that classy black coat off – Todd stayed in the car. 🙂  Kurt and Bretta hired a couple private cars to shuttle people to and from the hotel which was a great idea.  And Marna’s Catering had an amazing presentation of butler pass hors d’oeuvres (another great idea for big weddings and cocktail-style receptions so people don’t have to move around so much in The Loft.)

Jeff Loven, Minnesota’s #1 One Man Band rocked the Loft tonight!  Pretty sure there was some crazy singing and crazy dancing – watch the video!  I also think Bretta’s dad Ray did the splits? Wowzers – fun to be a part of it all (and not get hit by cars for the end of the night shot)! -Judd and Eric

Birds were chirping this morning!  What a day for Megan and Andy’s wedding – the snow was melting and we got to shoot outside – yay!

Megan’s mom, Jean, did an amazing job with all the details, flowers, and decorations – she even made Megan’s clutch purse out of leftover train from her dress.  Megan also had some cool accessories including a sleeved jacket that buttoned up the back and a cape!!!  Some other super fun moments included Bill dancing, the glass spilling out of the bag because Andy is a hard stomper, Megan’s dad seeing her for the first time, and all the college stories during the toasts.

It was so fun celebrating with you guys – you have an amazing group of family and friends! Even if they can’t keep a straight face doing the serious pose. 🙂 – Judd and Josh
