Kaylin & Connor | Bunker Hills Golf Course | Minnesota Wedding Photographer

Weddings

I have a lot of fun at weddings. I love my work, I love dancing, and I love having a good time. Kaylin and Connor’s Bunker Hills Golf Course wedding in Coon Rapids is easily in the top 5 “most rockin’” of all of the weddings I’ve photographed.

Kaylin and Connor both attended Liberty University and met on their very first day of college. The class? Public Health. If that isn’t one of the sweetest things ever, I don’t know what is. The devoted couple dated all four years of college and even did a stint of long-distance dating. And on their wedding day, you could feel, see, and almost taste their excitement to be married and to live in the same state again (the happy couple now lives in Virginia Beach).

Both Kaylin and Connor are the types of people with whom everyone wants to be friends. They’re both hard working – a characteristic Kaylin attributes to her initial attraction to Connor – they’re both loyal, and they both like to have a good time…a trait that was in full force during their reception.

They had so much hutzpah that even their DJ joined them not one but multiple times on the dance floor!! I’ve seen a lot of things as a wedding photographer but that was a first!

It was very touching to see, as the day progressed, how excited both Kaylin and Connor became. At first, both were nervous. I assured them was a completely normal way to feel…it’s a big day and they’re about to do something truly magical. Upon seeing Connor waiting, his back turned in anticipation for their first look, Kaylin turned to me and said, “Ok. I feel much better now. I‘m ready.” Her nerves dissipated in an instant and joy overtook her.

The radiance that was on display throughout Kaylin and Connor’s wedding day will stick with me for a long time. I can only hope to have the same amount of love, joy, support, and laughter at my own wedding. May they never forget how much their friends and family love them and may they never lose that bright energy they have for each other!
