I am sitting in my hotel room right at this very moment waiting for tomorrow to roll around! I am in St. Cloud to photograph Jess + Ryan's wedding day. If it's anything like their engagement session it's going to be an incredible time with many laughs mixed in-between! Here are just a few of my favorites from their engagement session! Enjoy! -Ben G.
I had been wanting to do a surprise engagement shoot for the longest time. Alex contacted me and we got everything all perfectly planned out. The surprise worked flawlessly! Alex + Tayler are so perfect for one another. These are some of my favorites from the surprise engagement. Enjoy!
I met an incredibly cool couple on my trip to California. After hiking to the top of Yosemite Falls I spotted these two and asked if I could take a couple photos of them. They were willing and I was so grateful for that! Enjoy! -Ben
A really cool thing happened to me on an engagement shoot. I drove to Fargo and ended up being there about 4 hours early so I would have enough time to scout out good locations. I had a little free time and stopped by a thrift store like I always do. I picked up a Polaroid camera, hit the shutter, and a photo came out! Who knows how long this film had been loaded into this Polaroid camera. So I picked it up and walked around the store with it. I was waiting to see if the Polaroid that I shot would turn out or if the film was bad. The photo ending up turning out! I was super stoked and then bought the old camera for $3.99. When Ryan and Jess got to the shoot I informed them that I had only two shots left on this camera and we were going to have to use them wisely. We used the two shots at two different locations. Their reactions from actually holding a moment they had together made me feel so grateful and fortunate to be doing what I am doing. Capturing real moments and love will never get old to me.
