European Styled Shoot at the Minneapolis Institute of Art

After a happenstance meeting of the incredible Izzi and Alex of Poiema, we automatically struck up a friendship. Izzi approached me about collaborating to create a European styled wedding shoot. She had a dream to create something timeless, romantic and authentic. We were aiming to recreate and reflect the beauty and depth of a real wedding. After dreaming up the vision, we got to work on gathering our amazing vendor team. Primarily, we wanted to collaborate with a venue that reflected the depth and timelessness that we were looking for. The Minneapolis Institute of Art was above and beyond our wildest dreams for the backdrop of our shoot. To have the opportunity to creatively direct and plan alongside Izzi and Alex at the Museum was simply amazing, so awe-inspired. We were surrounded by artifacts from thousands of years ago and pieces from some of the worlds greatest artists including Rembrandt, Monet, Van Gogh, Bergondi and thousands of others. The reality that our vision could come to life in such an elegant and sophisticated way was overwhelming! Needless to say, the team of vendors was stellar (see the complete list below the gallery). Cheers to Izzi, Alex, Kevin, Laura, Lizzy, Ashley, Hannah, Dan, Michelle, Sam, Misty, Landon and everyone else who brought this vision to life.

I will let the images speak for themselves, please enjoy with a glass of wine.
