Frankie is a bundle of energy that I would be thrilled to play any day of the week (that is...if she can slow down long enough for me!) With her beautifully curly blond hair, dark eyes and stunning personality, this little 4 year old sure is a REAL PRINCESS!
I love you Frantas! (especially Frankie the princess....) :)

Colleen and Brian are the life of any party....I found that out real fast at the rehearsal dinner Friday night. :) They are both funny, outgoing and very genuine, so, needless-to-say their wedding reflected every inch of their attractive personalities! With live music all weekend long to entertain their guest, they threw a party that was out of this world (that I am sure will have people talking for MONTHS)!
With the gorgeous backdrop of Colleen's family home, the stage was set for the Irish wedding of a lifetime...
I just *adore* how exciting Colleen's Mom is to see her in her wedding gown....
Brian surprised Colleen with a hand-written note before the ceremony.
The flower girl got a little antsy during the ceremony and started making designs out of the pedals in the floor. Hey...what else do you do if you are bored right?!?!?!
Some wedding party lovin' at a local B&B...what a GREAT spot for photos!!!!!
The party was *a hit* with a KILLER LIVE band. The dance floor was full the entire night while people laughed the night away with the newlyweds.....

(09.16.09 @ 11:19PM)Wonderful pictures! It was a grand occasion! You did an awesome job capturing the day!
(09.20.09 @ 5:07PM)Emily, YOU are the rockstar!!! Thank you for your kind words.... Not only did you beautifully capture our favorite details of our wedding in your typical Emily fashion, but you and Katie were an absolute joy to be around all day! Thank you, thank you, thank you.... Mr. & Mrs O!
(09.22.09 @ 2:35PM)WONDERFUL, Emily! What a stunning job! You completely captured the happiness of the day.
(09.29.09 @ 10:47AM)Caroline is outgoing, energetic and darn-right fun to be around....I caught her giggle many times on camera as well as her RADIANT smile and model-sque smirks! :) With her red hair and hazel eyes, this young lady is stunning (as I am sure you can tell)....
Caroline's gorgeousness + radiant morning light = my favorites.....
:)
Again, Caroline....with your hotness...

Future Anthropologie model perhaps? Lovely photos em! You don't disappoint!
(09.13.09 @ 9:34PM)Wow, Carly (aka Caroline) is beautiful! All Cindy's girls are beautiful and these pictures are amazing!

The day was classy, charming and full of Danielle's giggle anywhere that she went! Both Rick and Danielle have unbelievable smiles and we saw not only the smiles but the bursts of laughter as we walked around St. Paul snapping photos...they are truly made for each other! :)
I *adored* this moment. Danielle and Rick opted not to see each other before the ceremony, therefore, when Danielle entered the room with her Dad she HAD to take a quick glance at the alter where Rick was standing! :)
My fave...
Their St. Paul hotel reception was classy and beautiful! They chatted the night away with friends and played cards until all hours of the night with family....what better way to spend your wedding day? :)

Walking around the gorgeous grounds of Camrose Hill Farm with them on their big day was nothing short of fun....real smiles, passionate kisses and giggling moments are spontaneous between the two and they are the most laid back couple in this world. Surrounded with their closest family and friends the day was just a *perfect* way to start their new life as husband and wife!
The backdrop of this gorgeous wedding was gardens, sculptures, old bed frames, billowing trees, old barns, and flowers flowers flowers galore.....I only dream of living in a space like this.
It certainly is *very cool* that Jake serves as an active Marine! I was thrilled that he chose to wear his dressed blues and show off how stellar he is in that uniform---hats off to Jake for being a Marine and serving our country!!
*this moment made my day!*
And everyone knows that I can't resist the golden rays of light at sunset...... :)

Emily - I am speechless. That does it, when the other two get married I'm flying to in to be our photographer! Erin and Jake's wedding day was truly so special and now to relive it through your photo's is nothing short of wonderful!

Absolutely beautiful...the couple, the location, the family and friends and the photographs. What beautiful memories for years to come. Erin & Jake - God Bless You both and remember to always put each other first. Love, Jerry & Sandi Dillon (old family friends)
(09. 9.09 @ 5:20PM)Emily, I just can not even tell you how truly talented I think that you are... The pictures and their beauty never cease to amaze me and it just makes me that much more excited for next July! You are amazing, and this couple is beautiful, you could not have captured them better I don't think :)
(09. 9.09 @ 11:28PM)Emily, you did a fabulous job! I sure wish I could have been there. Erin, you and Jake are a beautiful couple - Congratulations!!! I can't wait to meet you Jake. Much Love, Aunt Mary
(09. 9.09 @ 11:43PM)Ummm.... HOLY SMOKES!!!! :D This was a FANTASTIC wedding, and you took gorgeous photos of it! I can't get over the color scheme. Absolutely perfect.
(09.10.09 @ 1:10AM)I loved these pictures! They made me cry. Especially Steve dancing with Erin. It was precious. Beautiful couple
(09.10.09 @ 9:02AM)Hello all you Chabollas, past and present. Cindy, how did we know when I came to visit just after Erin was born that we would be here at this point in our time knowing each other. I still have the pictures of us in the airport and I am telling Erin goodbye, holding the little girl, and then the years later when they all three came to see me in Arkansas. Sunny looks great. I found her in one of the pictures. God has blessed both of us with our families. Love to all, Montez. I will figure out how to do pictures on facebook, hopefully so I can share with you Chabollas and Nelsons. (if you want to send hints, please do)
(09.10.09 @ 9:03AM)WOW! Awesome shots Emily! You captured that amazingwedding perfectly. You are very talented!!!
(09.10.09 @ 6:24PM)Emily, these are amazing!!! You captured the wedding so perfectly, as well as showing what a beautiful and happy couple Erin and Jake are. You were also such a joy to work with on the wedding day, and I have a wonderful picture of you and your assistant! Let me know if you want a copy. Congrats to Erin and Jake!! Jess (Maid of Honor)
(09.11.09 @ 11:45AM)Absolutely beautifu!!!! Erin and Jake, I'm so happy for you! You looked so happy and gorgeous! Truly a fairytale wedding!

We caught up with the girls getting beautiful at the salon downtown...
And Tira's Dad was adorable when he first saw her...he literally burst into tears! :) How cute!!
Job and his BFF's being themselves...
This is probably one of my *most favorite* wedding party things we have ever done! Kudos to the wedding party for going along with my crazy idea....

love the colors, love the flip flops and bikes, what a memorable day! And that photographer-they don't come any better, do they?!
(09. 8.09 @ 6:37PM)LOVE That tandem shot! I love the whole bike theme, and how you captured it!

(09. 8.09 @ 10:27PM)Crazy FUN color palette! Awesome!
(09.10.09 @ 7:47PM)I absolutely love the rainbow-theme concept. The effect really worked well with the bridal party standing next to them at the ceremony.
Looks like a fun, fun group of people!
Great shots, as always, Emily.

Oh my goodness! How beautiful is this little girl! She looks like so much fun. Some one right up your alley, Em! Great photos :)
(09.23.09 @ 9:48AM)Stunning child! I've never seen such gorgeous hair on a little girl. Amazing. And her bedroom seems perfect for her, too.
Once again, Em, you captured the essence tremendously!
(09.29.09 @ 10:55AM)AS ALWAYS, beautiful pictures, Emily. I would not guess that this is a 4-yo girl. Well done, well done.
