Happy Friday, blog friends! It is a gloriously hot 90 degrees here in North Dakota today and I am spending the day inside with the A/C on. IN MAY. That's just crazypants!

I'm really excited to show you photos from Andy and Emily's Fargo wedding from a few weeks ago. Emily is a thoughtful, organized and creative person, so her wedding was filled to the brim with interesting details. I loved her shoes (what's new?) and loved all of the thought she and Andy put into making their guests and wedding party peeps feel welcome.

Emily is also a loyal blog reader so I am just thrilled to be showcasing her photos here today. Emily and Andy, thank you so much for inviting us to capture your big day! We loved every moment!

Steph + Ben

Last fall, on a windy, windy day, the lovely Stephanie and her handsome groom Ben tied the knot. Despite the wind that almost blew away a veil, messed up hair, and turned our reflector into a kite, Steph and Ben smiled and laughed through it all :) Their ceremony and reception were both gorgeous and we were honored to be a part of the celebration.

Here are our favorite photos from their big day ::

I loved Steph's classic shoes and her hand-tied bouquet

A hair re-do was necessary after all that wind!

Liz + Scott

On a cool, blustery day last November, we made the big trip (!) to Thompson to capture the lovely wedding of Elizabeth and Scott. We'd never photographed a wedding in Thompson before, so we were excited to explore a new place (even if this new place is only 6 miles from our town).

When we arrived, it started to snow/rain. Uh-oh, I thought. But Liz, in her fabulous blue open-toe shoes, said, "I'd love to go outside, Shawna" when I asked her if she maybe, sorta, couldn't, wouldn't mind heading over to this great barn area for photos. So we bundled up and headed out!

I love that Liz and Scott were so willing to freeze (just for a bit!) outside so we could snap photos of them. And then, even the wedding party came and froze their behinds off for some photos too. That's what we call true friendship, blog readers. True friends :)

Here are a few of my favorite photos from Liz + Scott's big day ::

These draped, monotone carnation spheres were elegant and simple. I loved this look!

After the ceremony, Kory took the limo with the wedding party and I sped to the Alerus Center. It looked amazing! Flowers and decor by Sadie of Sadie's Coutour Floral and Event Styling (she's amazing!)
