Amanda & Jordan + Kahn | Engagement Session

Say hello to Amanda, Jordan, and their sweet pup Kahn! Amanda and Jordan are getting married this summer in June, and I am so thrilled to photograph their wedding! I’ve known Jordan ever since I was in third grade, when he became best friends with my older brother. I’m so happy that they found each other, especially since now I have another girlfriend to visit whenever I go home.

Amanda has more love for dogs than anyone I’ve ever known. It’s always been a dream of hers to rescue a puppy, and that dream finally came true for her when they rescued Kahn. So obviously, the little addition to their family had to be documented, and what better time to do that than during engagement photos! Kahn was so well behaved during our shoot. I always recommend to clients to bring someone extra along to watch the dog during the shoot, so we can all just focus on the love and photos. Kahn barely even needed a baby sitter though! We let him run around, and he always listened when we called him back. He was very excited, so it was hard to get him to sit still for formal photos, but the natural candid ones are always the best ones anyway.

We also got lucky with weather! November in MN can be unpredictable, but this day we had fair weather, and I even managed to find what was left of the fall color and leaves. By the end of the shoot, we were all having so much and Amanda and Jordan were so comfortable in front of the camera, it was hard to stop! It’s the biggest compliment when clients say they love how fun I make shoots, and how they love my shooting style. I strive for each and every photo shoot to be as fun and laid-back as possible, just like this one was.
