You guys, there are so many great photos from our time together…so far, I’ve narrowed down to 33 I’d like to blog.

Since, it is Christmas Eve (in 90 minutes), I need to turn my computer off for some family time. But I wanted to put up at least a few of your shots outside in the snow.

Merry Christmas!

Plus, these candid shots are so “Lindsey”…

Saturday was the most beautiful day for a winter wedding. Snow, sunshine and a balmy 23 degrees.

Libby and Matt are a beautiful couple. We went across the high bridge in St Paul and got these awesome shots with the St Paul Cathedral in the background. Love it!

I love to include images that show you why it’s worth having two (or three) photographers at your wedding. These two images were taken at the same time.Both are fantastic shots!

We tried to stay warm, but if you look at Libby’s shoulder, you can see the goosebumps…but these shots were worth every minute of MN winter weather.

I love these girls. We really make an amazing team and I am blessed to have them…and so are YOU! Clients of Alison Lea Photography reap the benefits of having the three of us working together. You’ll have Alison or Kendra come and shoot photos, Cassie will edit them and they’ll go online in no time. We each get to do the things we love to do and YOU get the best pictures possible! It’s definitely a win-win situation for everyone. Did I mention that Kendra and Cassie are wonderful?
