brooke and neil {wedding day}

Lowell Inn, Stillwater, Minnesota November 2, 2007

This was my last wedding of the season, and sure enough, it was an awesomely awesome one! The whole day was just perfect — beautiful people, happy tears, sunny smiles, gorgeous weather, and the best part was, I had so many great shots to choose from!! It sure was amazing. Thank you so so much, Brooke and Neil, for letting me be a part of your wonderful day.

Brooke and Neil got married at the historical Lowell Inn in downtown Stillwater. It was just beautiful!




I love this shot of Brooke and little Ava. So much love here, so precious.

The ceremony was intimate and touching with only their closest friends and family.


The wedding party shots were so much fun!



We went around downtown Stillwater for some shots. I love love love this shot with the school bus. The layers of happiness simply melt my heart.




The reception was held at Ideal Hall in Saint Paul. Check out their beautiful cake!

Brooke and Neil’s first dance and Brooke’s dance with her grandfather.


Last but not least, the rings shots!


Thank you so much, Brooke and Neil, for the wonderful times. You guys rock, and my best wishes for a wonderful life together!

astrid + jeff {love shoot}

The engagement session with Astrid and Jeff was amazing. The love and connection between them shines through, and it is so sweet and special. We started our session in Minnehaha Falls, and continued at Lake Nokomis. It was a beautiful day with cozy warm sun and gorgeous fall colors. Oh, how I love fall! : )



They are such a beautiful couple, so in love, and so easy going.




Check out the seagull that flew into the shot – what a pleasant surprise!



Some jumping, some tipping over, some cloning, some balloons…




Thank you so much, Astrid and Jeff, for such an awesome session!

warmly,
Ai Ling

Calista - You are certainly getting better. You did a great job! I love the one with a seagull in it.. and the cloning one. Your first attempt, but it’s real nice!

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

Lauranne - your treatment is awesome here, and the colors are indeed gorgeous. The ring pic is very original, nice one :)

BRAVO!

Norm - Thank you Ai for a wonderful photo shoot! You did a fabulous job capturing our wedding!
