Bailey and Nick’s wedding took place at the Zephyr Lodge at the top of the Northstar ski resort. They decided to use minimal decor because…who would ever […]

STINA I first had the chance to shoot with Stina a few years back and I KNEW I needed to work with her again. She is so much fun and in front of the camera she is flawless. I mean it. Not a single bad angle! How is that even fair? 🙂 We had been […]
