Commons Hotel Wedding Minneapolis | Ashley & Pat

I’m going to start my backlog of blogging with Ashley & Pat’s wedding at The Commons Hotel in Minneapolis, MN.  The Commons was a new venue to me and I am pretty sure my jaw hit the floor upon entering the hotel.  They did such a great job styling this hotel and it made the perfect backdrop for getting ready, first look and bridal party photos!  As if that wasn’t enough, we headed to the gorgeous St. Thomas Chapel for A&P’s ceremony.  Ashley and Pat were such a fun couple, full of life and love.  It was such a joy to capture them with their family and friends.  After the ceremony we went down to the Stone Arch Bridge for some more bridal party photos.  Wow, what a beautiful day we had for April.  In Minnesota, you totally take a gamble having an April wedding, it could be gorgeous or covered in snow, HA!  The fun continued back at The Commons Hotel for dinner and dancing and I loved the couples classic color choice of black and gold.  Stories of love and laughter were shared and what a great night it was!

I know the gram has been quiet but it’s been busy behind the scenes! Lots of editing going on as I wrap up my fall season with a few more sessions to go before things really slow down for Christmas. My 2026 wedding calendar is officially booked and I will now only be taking 2027 weddings and beyond! Thank you to all my clients who continue to support me 🤍
Last week I had the privilege to photograph Madeline and Aaron at Lake Superior. This week, I get to go explore Lake Superior and the Apostle Islands. I will be out of the office 8/7-8/10. Soaking up these last few days of summer with my family before back to school! Can't wait for M&A's wedding next August in Duluth!

I'm back!! I spent an amazing 2 weeks in Europe visiting multiple cities! Rome, Sorrento, Positano, Capri, Venice & Paris. What an unforgettable adventure I had with my family. So many memories made and thousands of photos captured! I'm slowly working my way through my inbox and getting back into the swing of things. I'm looking forward to the second half of my season capturing your special moments!

Not sure how my baby grew up to be an adult, but here we are! She turns 18 this fall and in just 3 more sleeps, we will board a plane with her sister and dad to explore Italy & France. I'll be out of the office July 9-24th, so if you need to get a hold of me, I will get back to you when we're back state side. Make sure to follow our adventures on IG stories!
