Portraits with Becca

We’ve been trying to figure out what to do about wedding photography. We’re leaning away from hiring a photographer for wedding day. But we also wanted some really nice photos of us that didn’t involve Missy holding the camera at arm’s length. So when our friend Becca Dilley mentioned that she was participating in the Portraits with a Heart fundraiser for the Leukeumia-Lymphoma Society, we jumped on that. We weren’t really sure what to expect, but we knew Becca would be fun to hang with and is a great photographer. And we were totally right.

We hemmed and hawed a bit on the matching vests. Are matching outfits too cheesy? Maybe a little, but I think it worked. That blue vest really brings out Missy’s eyes. And don’t down vests and jeans just scream autumn in Minnesota?

For the former and current Twin Citizens in the house, the location is on the Minnehaha Creek trail in the vicinity of the Lyndale Ave bridge. Minnehaha Creek is one of my favorite places in all of the Twin Cities. You’d never know you were smack in the middle of south Minneapolis.

    The vests work out just fine.

    I think my favorite, though, is the B&W back-to-back shot. Those smiles line up wonderfully. :)
