\"Semple
\nI’ve known Brittney’s family for years.\u00a0 Her sister Christal’s wedding<\/a> was one of the first I ever photographed professionally.\u00a0 These girls have been like family to me, and I am truly honored to have been such a big part of each of their wedding days as their wedding photographer.<\/p>\n

For Brittney and John, it was love at first sight. When Brittney’s family brought John to meet her, Brittney remembers laying eyes on him and immediately looking at the floor.\u00a0 Later, she admitted that it was because she found him incredibly handsome, and she realized she wasn’t wearing any makeup!\u00a0 It didn’t matter to John, because makeup or not, he was smitten at first glance as well.\u00a0 Two years later, the couple held their wedding ceremony and reception at the Semple Mansion in Minneapolis, and it was a grand family affair.\u00a0 Brittney had always loved the elegance of the historic site, and chose white, gold and silver wedding themes to match the venue.\u00a0 Her favorite part of the day was the intimacy of John’s “first look” at her wearing her wedding gown.\u00a0 They chose to do it on the main stairway of the mansion, and when John saw her, he couldn’t help but shed some tears as he took her into his arms.\u00a0 The ceremony and reception flowed smoothly, at least after the part where someone forgot to get Brittney from the bridal suite when it was her turn to walk down the aisle!\u00a0 But it’s the little things like that that lend some comic relief to a wedding day, and Brittney and John could not have asked for a better one.<\/p>\n

For some fun at the reception, Brittney and John booked our ANTIBOOTH<\/a> photo station!\u00a0 Scroll to the bottom to see guests having fun with props for these souvenir pictures.\u00a0 Each guest gets to take home 4×6″ archive quality prints from the wedding.\u00a0 The Antibooth is always a hit!<\/p>\n
