Andy & Marissa | North Dakota Wedding Photographer

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by something that it's hard to put into words how beautiful it really was? That's how I feel about Andy & Marissa's wedding. From my first consult with Andy in Fargo, while he was here working (they lived in New York at the time), I knew I wanted to be friends with this couple. That's right, I said friends, not clients. So double bonus, they booked me  and now I get to be friends with them. 

Their wedding was at the lovely Coteau Des Prairies Lodge which lays on some beautiful land near the border of South Dakota and North Dakota. It was a beautiful day full of sunshine and beautiful blue skies with a gentle bit of breeze to keep the bugs at bay. Friends and family gathered from as near as a few miles away and all the way from New York where Andy and Marissa have made their home for the last number of years. (& where Marissa got her stunning Leanne Marshall dresses) Hay bails were lined up for seating,  laughter was shared and dance moves were danced. It was an amazing day. Simply that.  

Andy and Marissa, you are such wonderful people and I wish you the best! 

Special thanks to my fabulous second shooter, Chantell. Oh and you can view the short video I put together for them here!
