A great concept…now locally (with local vendors) downtown, near Neiman Marcus. We encourage all of our couples to check it out…as it could save you a lot of time as you plan the look of your day. Their service allows you to create Inspiration Broads for you wedding (and print them for a small fee). MPLS/ST. PAUL Magazine interviewed The Style Laboratory and posted a great video of how their product works, link below.
The service is FREE. Appointment preferred.

What a connected couple…you two were so much fun to photograph!!
Kristina hired us for their 2011 wedding weeks ago when Ben was in East Africa on an assignment for his graduate degree. It was fun to meet him and see what a great fit these two are!! Ben proposed to her in India where he purchased her unique, emerald engagement ring. These two are world travelers…and I’d suspect a lot of amazing trips in their future (yes…we’re available!!!).























What a relaxed & trusting bride. It rained…all day pretty much…and definitely put a damper on what they visualized for outdoor photography. Kristen & Ryan completely put their trust in us (thank you, thank you…we love that!!!), and even though it rained we were able to capture some great outdoor shots by being a bit creative.
Also…awesome floral thanks to Russel’s amazingness (Wisteria)!!! I could tell right away that Kristen put her trust in Russel…gave him a little direction (color scheme/etc), but not too much, and let him be creative. I see the best floral when brides do this—hire someone they like and trust and let them run with it.
Here is what Kristen had to say:
“We just wanted you to know that we could not have asked for a better photographer! You made our day so special and you allowed us to just enjoy the moment! We loved each and everyone of our photos! They are absolutely breathtaking and you were able to capture everything… from the love we have for each other, the emotions from our family and friends and to every little detail throughout the day. We were seriously laughing and crying when we looked through all of our pictures. We were able to re-live our wedding day! Thanks again for everything and it was such a pleasure to work with you!”

She’s a Physician’s Assistant, he’s a (soon-to-be) Cardiac Surgeon. They just moved up from Texas as Jay was matched at the Mayo for his residency program. They wanted a small, private, intimate event with their closest friends & family. And that it was, as they embraced their new city (Rochester, MN) and celebrated at a historical mansion blocks from their new home.
This wedding was so personalized and full of meaning…we loved it. And literally, didn’t want to stop shooting!!
Jessica hired us over the phone…2 months prior to her date. Not our norm (and I’m sure not hers!!). We love how much she trusted us….and so very much hope they love their images & sprinkle them all over their adorable home.
