i think I felt my heart skip a beat

i'm standing here

and i can hardly breath,

you got me, yeah, you got me

Joe and Becca, I can't thank you enough for picking me to be a part of your incredible celebration! It was a beautiful show of love and care towards each other. The day was a gorgeous October day, sunny and seasonably warm. The church had the most spectacular pond and field that played a perfect backdrop for your first glimpse of each other.

Joe's nerves were forgotten the second he laid eyes on Becca. She in her gorgeous ivory beaded dress and fabulous shoes. Becca had a mother-of-pearl broach passed down through generations in her hair and gorgeous flowers to finish it off. Joe looked sharp in a black tux with an ivory under vest. He sure cleans up well!

The wedding was a mix of both Joe and Becca. Lovely music, warm sunny sanctuary, and Joe's childhood pastor to incorporate both families' backgrounds. As I looked around the room, the pride, joy, and love for Joe and Becca shown on the face of everyone.

After these two were hitched, we headed down to the Mississippi river in Sauk Rapids. This new park to commemorate an old bridge linking each bank of the Mighty Mississippi lent us a perfect view and a load of laughs. It is not hard to see why these two have so many great friends!

Joe and Becca, it doesn't take long to see how perfect you are for each other. It's amazing to see how two people fit together like puzzle pieces. The last year of working with you has been awesome. You have given me encouragement, trust, confidence, and friendship. Congratulations Joe and Becca!!

At last... Travis and Kimberli's pictures are done! I know Kimberli's family well as I graduated high school with her brother Chris and was in show choir with her sister Nikki. Lots of great memories with this family. It was very exciting to see Kimberli all grown up and married! Travis - welcome to the family - you fit in great!

Travis was not lonely with this group of guys! All were fun and definitely enjoyed standing up for their friend!
The girls were all sweethearts! I wouldn't have expected anything less from Kimberli! All so beautiful, they were easy to take pictures of!
Mitchell has a nice little lake north of town. It's kind of the hot spot here! Every one of them was a trooper as we got through the pictures and headed back to the reception.
What a good looking couple! They had such a spark, you couldn't miss it!
Congratulations Travis and Kimberli! Have a great time on your honeymoon and thank you for letting me be a part of your special day!

Here's just a preview of a Travis and Kimberli's beautiful South Dakota wedding. It was a gorgeous day that complimented the heartfelt sermon from the pastor and the ample amount of guests to share the special day with the couple. It's hard to compare anything to a South Dakota wedding.

Congratulations Travis and Kimberli! More pictures to come!!!
