kari and norm {wedding day}

Landmark Center, Saint Paul, Minnesota October 27, 2007

I have been excited to photograph Kari and Norm’s wedding in Landmark Center ever since our meeting there. Gorgeous building, with amazing interior – it is a perfect place to held a wedding. And to top everything off, Kari and Norm are such a warm hearted and nice couple. I am just grateful to be a part of their beautiful wedding.



The wedding was held in a courtroom. It was intimate and touching.




We wandered around in the building to look for cool spots for photos.


Fall colors and weather makes it one of the best time to get married. We went to Como Park for some outdoor photos.



The rings shot was a tricky one. I placed the rings on the third floor railings overlooking the courtyard in the Landmark Center, and had to be really careful not to drop them over the side. : )
I love how Norm’s ring and the wrought iron railing formed a heart around Kari’s ring. Sweet!

Thank you so much, Kari and Norm, for including me in your amazing wedding. Congratulations to both of you, and my best wishes on a wonderful life together!

warmly,
Ai Ling

I was approached by Tiffany, asking if I was interested in helping to do some shoots for her presentation at work. Real estate has never been so appealing before! : )

I had a great time, both shooting and processing. We were having way too much fun. You might remember Tiffany from her awesome engagement session (click here to see photos from Tiffany’s engagement session).

I thought we could be creative and do something fun. Here are just a few we came up with.



Yay, you guys. Thanks so much for the fun session. Hope you kick some butt during your presentation!!

warmly,

casting, casting!

I survived my first casting yesterday… and can I say, “woohoo!!”
It wasn’t easy, we had to pick 10 models out of the 150+ that attended the audition. Some great, some awesome, mostly fabulous, a few made me went WOW. And then it is the long elimination process – from “no” to “I don’t think so” to “maybe” to “that’s the one”.
It took 2 brains and countless brain cells – Nicole and I raked our brains and finally made our decisions.

The shoot is next week, and I know for sure it’s going to be rad. I am so excited for it! Will let you guys know more about it after the shoot. Wish me luck! : )

cheers,
Ai Ling
