Josh + Ami: 09.06.2014 (Windows on Minnesota)

Whew… I think I have finally recovered from Josh and Ami’s wedding! Josh and I have photographed over 200 weddings so we kinda “know the drill” but we were both playing different roles than usual… Josh was the groom/backdrop builder/confetti canon builder and I was photographer/sound guy/parking specialist/sherpa. Josh and Ami packed every imaginable cool detail (i.e. Star Trek cuff links and Ami’s gloves!!) into an amazingly action packed day and it just seemed like time was marching too fast!! It was a whirlwind of smiles, dancing, partying, Japanese garden shooting, laughing and re-uniting with old friends and family. I was so tired I ordered room service. Twice. 🙂

Josh found this cool door in Minneapolis to shoot on and we just grabbed seemingly endless quick shots in the parking lot, and fields, and shoe shine chair – all happening without hesitation from a couple who knows how to pose and are totally in love, and find cool spots! Special thanks to Jaimie and Eric and Chad for grabbing great images and video as well – WHAT A FUN DAY! We are so excited the Schneiderkoosmanns are on an amazing globetrotting honeymoon to Italy, Greece, and France – and we will try to hold the studio down while you’re gone and see you soon!! -Judd, Jaimie, Eric, Chad, and Taylor

What a fun trek down to Rochester for Paul and Andrea’s wedding!  There were rings on the red licorice vines, cute ring-bearer/flower girls, pose striking, bobble heads, confusion between air vents and speakers, a thumping limo, and amazing cool locations to shoot in (stairs, courtyard where Paul and Andrea got engaged, bus stop, canon, park bridge, etc, etc, etc). We love shooting in new locations so great job scouting you guys!  I also loved the hotel lighting and textured wallpaper. 🙂  Our fabulous intern, Jordan, also got a blog shot!  It is of Grandpa looking at Paul and Andrea through the church doors – priceless!!

Thanks for the referral Laura and Trevor (2008 wedding), and it was great to see you guys again with Paul and Andrea! -Judd, Josh, and Jordan

Patrick + Heidi: 7.19.2014 (Lift Bridge Loft, The Loft at Studio J)

It is so great to see two people so excited about each other like Patrick and Heidi. I don’t think you could have found either of them with anything less than a giant smile on their faces all day. Heidi did her own hair and was helping with decorations at The Loft until it was time to start pictures. Patrick was across the street at The Bridge Loft getting ready with the guys and recovering after running over 10 miles in the Minneapolis/St. Paul Tough Mudder run earlier that morning…yeah he ran that far ON his wedding day 🙂 They saw each other behind the studio in the garden of Camrose Hill and Patrick got goosed by his bride before seeing her awesome dress! This was by far the largest wedding party we’ve ever had (15 on each side) and we marched down to the river in a huge group to get family and wedding pictures taken in front of the Stillwater Bridge.

The wedding went great and we got to share in the story of Heidi’s dad who sadly passed before the wedding. He was clearly there in spirit and a wonderful video created by two of Heidi and Patrick’s good friends highlighting his final days with the family and the struggle they experienced together put most of the guests in tears (myself included). Our hearts go out to you and your family Heidi and Patrick.

The night ended wonderfully with friends and family dancing and having a great time together, not to mention the break dance stylings of one very awesome little man,Oluwatosin Wald. Thanks Patrick and Heidi for a wonderful night and we hope you enjoy your images!! – Josh and Jaimie

Ivan + Anne: 07.18.2014 (Red Lodge Mountain, Montana) – 10 image iPhone wedding!

I was a guest to Ivan and Anne’s wedding Saturday, and after some brainstorming I asked Anne if I could shoot just 10 images to capture their wedding. I was planning on using just my iPhone 5, limit myself to 10 images, and post the images online as they happened. Anne said, sure!

The challenge was a little nerve-racking because I couldn’t see the focus very well on my phone and needed to plan a little differently. We were in such an awesome location in the mountains in Montana with a very chill couple – it was really invigorating. Melissa was the main photographer and I was sherpa/creative director and I nabbed these fun images from atop picturesque Red Lodge Mountain Resort. I ended up taking about 40 images total, but these are my favorite 10… Hopefully I didn’t flood anyone’s Instagram (@juddsather) or Twitter (@JuddSatherPhoto) feeds too much! 🙂 -Judd
