Sarah and Eric are getting married later this year at the most perfect rustic barn location in small town Minnesota.  I’ve heard rumors of the festivities, and know first hand that their wedding is going to be nothing short of amazing!  The Groom plays the banjo!   ‘Nuf said.
There’s nothing like the Minneapolis riverfront at sunset on a warm, late summer night.  It can be rustic, urban, country, and industrial… all just depending on which way you turn.  The St. Anthony Main and Stone Arch Bridge area are one of my favorites in the city to shoot – and Sarah and Eric rocked it!

Eagle River, WI http://amberengferphotography.com/2011/05/monica-and-josh-engaged/ http://amberengferphotography.com/2011/05/monica-and-josh-engaged/#comments Wed, 25 May 2011 17:50:35 +0000 amber http://amberengferphotography.com/?p=2837 Monica and Josh are getting married later this year in the fabulous Northwoods of Wisconsin and I couldn’t be more excited after hearing the details of their day. Details that I can’t share yet, but are so amazing, I’m counting the days til September!   I met the couple last month for an engagement shoot on what I figured would be a nice spring day… boy was I wrong!  We ended up with snow and wind and bone chilling cold but man, Monica and Josh still rocked it! 

Even with the weather, the scenery was beautiful – there’s just something about a still lake on a cold day that mesmerizes me – add a super fantastic couple in the mix and I think we nailed it!

(which we forgot to drink)  Fortunately for Dan and Kathy (and my poor, ungloved hands – sorry mom!) our second location, albeit just as bright, was much warmer. :)

(aren’t they fabulous?!)
