Just a super simple “Save the Date” card??  Used some paper from here (Halloween night paper) Thanks so much for trusting me with your engagement photos guys!  I loved working with you!  :-)

They are so cute together and you can tell they get along great! They will make a great married couple! :-) We were down by the river on the Fargo/Moorhead border, but we got a little spooked cuz it appeared there was a drug deal going on down there (???? that’s what the girls thought – I didn’t even notice and was going to walk down there until they said something.) Once we saw some guys get a pick axe out of the car, we thought we better head somewhere else! ;-)

but we took a few on the grass before leaving! There’s something about this one I like. :-) and this one. :-) I did a washed-out color here by layering Pioneer Woman’s “heartland” over the color image & changing the opacity to about 55%If you are familiar w/ Fargo/Moorhead, you’ll know that there are tons of trains that go through there – so it wasn’t long before a train came by! I tried to get the “blur” of the train here….oh well – first time I ever tried it! It sorta works. :-)


Then we went down by Mexican Village

I like this one. :-) Trying an oldie but a goodie here – using Virtual Photographer’s photocopy filter at about 65% opacity! (Ok, it’s my new fav thing again and I used it on quite a few of their photos)Here’s Steph & Stac – Stephanie was a great help w/ the photos! She even let Stacie borrow her hat & scarf & top (fuschia – later on). Thanks Steph!Beautiful! (oh, those are Steph’s gloves too!)
OK I was joking that I didn’t think my camera was capable of taking photos of people wearing Packer’s gear….haha! But they do look good in green!
Of course PURPLE is a much more flattering color!! :-)

Thanks guys – you are so cute together!! And I hope you like your photos since they are your wedding present! haha! :-)

Of course I agreed and here are a couple so far. They were both actually a couple of goofballs! Good thing Steph (Stacie’s older sis!) came along to keep them in line! haha! But you can tell they are very much in love! awww!
More to come! But I’m off to bed…it’s 11:30pm and I have to work in the am…such is my life!
