This was the last wedding of my 2013 wedding season. Jess and Cody had a nice laid-back day, which made for a fun and stress-free day for everyone involved.
As you may know, Minnesota recently legalized gay marriage. It just so happens that my Uncle Bob and his partner, Darrell, were fortunate enough to live as a married couple before my uncle Bob passed away. Their wedding was great, and I was honored that they asked me to share their special day. I asked my uncle Bob about an hour before he was married what he thought about finally getting the chance to marry his best friend, and he said, “I never thought this day would be possible.”
Stacy and Ezra’s upbeat personalities are infectious, and it made for a very relaxed and fun atmosphere for everybody, myself included. The wedding took place around St. Cloud, Minn. at ‘The Grands at Mulligans.” It was a beautiful day for an outside wedding.
I shot this wedding last summer. It was in a cozy church along County Rd. 19 in St. Michael, Minn. The bride is a family friend and I was honored to shoot their wedding for them. The wedding consisted of the grooms two kids and the brides three kids. It was a blending of families, and of course, two people in love.
I was asked last minute by Y2K photography to help photograph a wedding in Barnesville, Minn. I talked it over with Jasmine, because we were looking forward to spend some much needed time together that Saturday, but she and I decided it would be great experience to do this. We weren’t wrong. I had so much fun spending time with complete strangers, and I know they had a great time as well.
