Daniel & Anna's University of Minnesota / Grace University Lutheran Church Wedding Day and Copper Hen in Minneapolis, MN

6/2/2021

There is not much more adorable than watching two people in love becoming one on their wedding day while taking their wedding photos– seriously, the sweetest thing! We repeatedly leave weddings sooo beyond grateful that we get to be photographers to such amazing couples! Daniel and Anna had to prove to us that they can be even more adorable than “just” loving on each other on their big day, but also that they were loving becoming official aunts and uncles to their precious nieces and nephews. We watched them throughout the day as they patiently listened and answered numerous questions as they walked around the University of Minnesota’s Grace University Lutheran Church grounds, celebrated and cherished the little ones around them (especially when letting the flower girl try on Anna’s dress and hold her flowers), giggling when the ringbearer booked it multiple times out of the portraits when he felt he was done versus trying to force cooperation, and even sharing a bite of their cake cutting piece with the littlest niece when she walked up with mouth open wide. It goes to show that when you choose to spend the rest of your life with the one you love, you are also choosing to spend the rest of your life in relationship with their loved ones – and Daniel and Anna are ready to dote on the precious littles around them.

Daniel and Anna, thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your wedding day! We left feeling unbelievably grateful you chose us to capture your precious intimate wedding and be in proximity to those nearest and dearest to your hearts! Anna, you were shining so bright with that beautiful smile and, Daniel, you looked so peaceful and happy to finally have your wife in your arms. We pray that you continue to choose to love and cherish one another and those close to you!
