RECENT WORK AND MUSINGS
When it comes to tying the knot, the thought of a big, bustling wedding might send shivers down your spine—and perhaps not the good kind. For those of us who crave something a bit more intimate, elopements or microweddings are like a breath of fresh Minnesota air. They strip down the day to what truly […]
Alexandrite is not like any other stone. Thanks to a phenomenon called metamerism, the gem changes its appearance based on the light. At times it will seem green; other times the jewel will appear purple. Sometimes there is even a bluish hue. Alexandrite is uniquely beautiful and unexpected. Unlike any other couple is Emma and […]
Exactly to years prior on August 11, 2018, Jessica and Som were strolling along Chicago’s Navy Pier. The Windy City is a frequent vacation destination for these two, but this year it would be a little different. It was on that trip, along that shoreline, that they became engaged. On August 11, 2020, Lake Michigan […]
For too long, elopements have been the joke of the wedding industry. They have been confused with shotgun weddings. The OG Dad joke is “I’ll give you them money if you’d just elope!” In the words of Rodney Dangerfield, elopements just can’t get no respect. With that said, there is a lot of allure for […]
When it comes to choosing at date, some couples like to play it safe. Stay away from major holidays, pick a time where they weather is a little more constant, things like that.

Nearly forty miles northwest of Grand Marais–a town that is quite northern in its own right–there is a lovely properly named Gunflint Lodge. It is located near the end of Minnesota’s iconic Gunflint Trail, a road which had simple beginnings as a footpath to connect the outer lakes to Lake Superior and now serves as […]
Fall in northern Minnesota is a finicky thing. Too many variables to list contribute to the autumnal rainbow that we love even more than Pumpkin Spice. Unfortunately, this year fall has been a bit aloof, with partial changes in the north (and very little changes in the metro and south, thanks to a heatwave followed […]
BEHIND THE LENS
At home on the road. Forever-focused on authenticity and the thrilling art of creation; always found in the moments that leave me breathless and in awe.
After fourteen years as a high school educator, I stepped back through a door I thought was closed. Journalism came back into my life. Armed with a Masters of Arts in Communication, I was again challenged and prepared to tell the stories that would become history, but with a twist: It is now your legacy of love that I document.
