One of my MOST favorite things is wandering around on a trail! I love hiking and the outdoors. I can't wait for an outdoor wedding on a mountain side. If you are thinking about a non traditional wedding I would love to hear about it! I adore travel, and photography so much.

How horses changed my life.


I have always had a huge pull for horses in my life. I never had the chance to grow up with horses. And I was never really around them. But somehow I always knew they were where I was meant to be. Some people in the horse world call it the "horse bug", you are either born with it or not. Towards the end of high school and into college I fell into a pretty awful depression. Horses were the only thing that got me going back then. That's when I knew I had to have my own. When I was 18 years old I saved my money. I built a fence at my parents farm, and bought my first horse. Ever since then horses have been a huge blessing in my life. Summer time in Minnesota is crazy busy between barrel races, rodeo, and my photography things sure do get wild. Thank goodness for the long hot summer days. If you are also a horse girly I'd love to get to know you! Finding like minded people in a new town is HARD! Feel free to reach out if you are wanting a new friend, I'm down for a ride.

One last thing that means the world to me is my dogs! I have had huskies since 2017. They sure are one tough breed to work with and train but I really love the adventure they have brought into my life. And the back talking sass they give when they know you aren't listening to them. We sure had a learning curve when it came to working with these guys but there's nothing better then a long summer bike ride with your huskies down the trails. These guys LOVE people they are the most social dogs I have ever owned. Stop by if you would like to meet the pack.
