Alyssa: Senior

It's officially senior season here at Shawna Noel Photography and we are having fun exploring new locations around Grand Forks!

We met with Alyssa on one of the only hot days this summer ... she managed to keep her cool throughout the whole session (Kory and I complained more about the heat than she did!) and we had a great time with her, her mom and her friend Kate!

How gorgeous is she?

Amanda + Brandon: Grand Forks, ND

Hello, friends! It's been a while! But fear not ... we are still here, still alive, still photographing lovely weddings and families around the great states of North Dakota and Minnesota. It's just been busy, you know? As usual, I've got lots to show and tell you about, including a fun new project that will launch in fall 2009! So excited!

Today we've got the wedding of Amanda and Brandon, two sweet people who tied the knot in Grand Forks in July. This was a Rugby wedding (although not technically held in Rugby) so there was a lot of laughter, wine, and red eye (all things we love!). We've honestly had such great times with the people from Rugby that we may just have to open up a second branch of Shawna Noel Photography in the geographical center of North America!

Anywho ... we started the morning with the girls at the salon ::

Then we met up with this lovely dress at the church ::

Oh, and these shoes ::

Fresh, pretty flowers = Love :)

Amanda and her dad. My favorite moment!

One of the adorable flower girls. She is from Australia and speaks with the cutest accent. Oy!

What a good lookin' wedding party!

Amanda borrowed this necklace from her grandmother who wore it on her wedding day, too :)

Rugby girls and apple pie.

Tasty ring shot!

Nile: Fun+Flirty

As a wedding present for her soon-to-be-husband, Nile decided to do a Fun+Flirty session with us a couple months before her wedding. Nile wanted it to have a pin-up feel and had the perfect accessories for it :: a cute rotary phone, fishnets and some pouty red lips. We had a lot of fun during her session :)

Here are some of the photos ::
