Leah & Jeff {married!}

Back in March we photographed Leah & Jeff's super awesome wedding in St. Paul. Leah and Jeff are both reporters in Washington DC but Leah is originally from the Twin Cities. We knew right from the moment we met them at a Dunn Brothers that their wedding would be a lot of fun and we were honored they chose us to photograph it!

Even though they got married in March which can be risky, the weather cooperated and we were able to get a few shots outside. It was still a bit chilly but the sun was out. Enjoy!

Leah looked absolutely stunning in her amazingly simple and elegant gown. It fit her so perfectly.

There is this cool old gym when you walk in the church. We loved the old woodwork.

After the ceremony, we headed over to the James J. Hill Library in St. Paul for the reception. Gene'o got this shot from the very top floor, not sure if it was "legal" but we knew we had to have a shot from this view!

There were some heartfelt and funny toasts by Leah & Jeff's friends and family. I had fun watching Leah to get her expressions, they were great!

Toast to the happy couple


After dinner, the Johnson Family Band took the stage. I only have one word for them, AMAZING! They are a funky blue-grass band with a great sound and style. They were so much fun!

They had people dancing all night long...seriously.

Leah did a fine job with our final portrait of the day. Yes, we look exhausted but I think we were on our feet about 10 hours at this point :) Good thing we love our job!
