Mill Ruins Park Engagement Photography

“Looks great you guys! OK, just one more second….” ~Click~ “Alright, I got it!”

“OK, NOW we need to go inside!” Bob had decided that he’d had enough of the blustery, icy wind that was numbing his ears and hands. He and his fiance, Katie, had planned on photographing their engagement session in Mill Ruins Park, however, the Minnesota winter of 2014 quickly changed their minds. Luckily, we had just started only a few minutes prior, so changed to working on Mill City Museum engagement photos, where we had previously decided we could finish our session if Mill Ruins Park turned out to be too cold. And it definitely was! (After I-don’t-know-how-many Polar Vortexes this winter, we had all pretty much tired of trying to suffer through any more.)

After warming up for a few minutes following our freezing walk around the corner to the museum, we were able to jump right back into the swing of things, and got some amazing photos of the two of them. Luckily, we were visiting the museum during the later half of a weekday, so there were not many members of the public to contend with. We were able to spend lots of time there having fun around the beautiful venue.

Thank You!

Centennial Lakes Park Engagement Photography

Amanda and Dan were engaged in December of 2013. They were excited to have their Centennial Lakes Park engagement photos taken at the same location and time of year that they were engaged.

We went to Centennial Lakes Park because that is where Dan proposed to Amanda. More specifically, he asked her right on the beautiful bridge overlooking the lakes! It was a pretty blustery January day for our visit. We couldn’t complain too much, as the two days prior to our session saw another polar vortex closing the schools in Minnesota. That was the third time this year! It was a “balmy” 24 degree day, but the wind really made it bitter. Amanda and Dan were champs though — they were great at throwing off their coats when the time was right to get our photos, they stood on the bridge amid the freezing wind, and they even laid on the ice, all in the name of capturing great photos! Here are just a few of their images to share.

Thank You!

Thanks for working with me as your engagement photographer, Amanda and Dan. I loved creating your Centennial Lakes Park engagement photos. I’m so excited for your big day in August, and I’m pretty sure there will be no sign of a polar vortex!
