A warm day cooled off nicely for a great evening at Dellwood Hills. This wedding wins the award for most colorful flowers – great blues and purples mixed in!

Marshall was very diligent with the lint roller for the groomsmen to start the day, but about halfway through the dance that seemed to be the least of the groomsmen worries… We took some great big group shots of those crazy Madison and Tartan contigents (Nice fight song singing.) Dellwood Hills was decorated beautifully for this young, fun wedding! – Judd and Joe

Who doesn’t love Arnold’s Park, Iowa? I’m surprised everyone didn’t get in the wooden roller coaster – is it still there? I was sad to miss this camp reunion of sorts that Chris and Amanda captured beautifully.

Hands down the cutest ringbearer outfits ever as well (the one on the left is my nephew)! -Judd (for Chris and Amanda)

What a fun, small group to capture at the Embassy Suites – a little thunderstorm in the morning made Heather cry for a bit but didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits! Matron of honor Levonia was just glad to have a few days away from her young girls and best man Jon couldn’t stop doing the Jon Bon Jovi “rock lock” – hilarious. Another highlight was the guy who won the dance contest – he had double jointed knees for sure. I love the “album cover” shot of the wedding party shown above. -Judd and Jessi

“And you thought your teacher didn’t have a life…”

A break in the wedding season turned my attention to independent filmmaking, which took up my free time for the better part of two months. Special thanks to Kindra for the script and my colleagues, the North High Teachers who embraced this short comedy. Enjoy the videos below! -Judd

The first wedding of 2007! How cool is it to be married with dolphins swimming around in the background?

The crisp January cold snap yielded to the fun and uniqueness of Ron and Alyson’s wedding at Mystic Lake Casino and the Minnesota Zoo. We had slot machines, valet parking, dolphins mourning, dolphins jumping, Ron accidently dropping cake down Alyson’s dress, “Uncle DJ” keeping Ron on his knees while guests paid to have him remove the garter over and over, and people “petting” stingrays, starfish and little tiger sharks.

Perhaps the biggest surprise of all was the dolphin telling the DJ to turn the dance music down through “his translator” – apparantly, dolphins start swimming around franticaly when they are mad and the music was the reason – smart animals!

It all added up to be a very fun evening loaded with some some very interesting and challenging photography, including about 150 pictures of the ringbearer, Jackson. -Judd & Amanda
