There are so many memories in life that we wish could last forever. So many moments we want to pause so we can replay and live in them whenever we please. As a photographer it is my joy to take these seconds and mold them into moments that can be kept and shared for a lifetime. I am honored to be able to share your wedding story through these photographs. Every wedding is unique and different and says so much about the love story of a bride and groom. My favorite part about capturing the love story is waiting for the first looks. All of the planning and anticipation to make this day perfect leads up to this moment when you see your love on your biggest day for the first time.

Can Can Wonderland

St. Paul, MN 651-925-2261 Email Visit Website

Bigger than mini golf, New life for an old factory. Can Can Wonderland isn’t just a fun name to say. It’s also an homage to the origins of this great place. Dating back to 1889, the building was home to the American Can Company, can manufacturer for many notable brands as Carnation, Campbell’s Soup, Del Monte, American National Can and others. In 1999, American Can Company won “Can of the Year” honors for another home state hero — the two-piece Spam can. We’ll go as far as saying that without the American Can Company, we might not have heard of Andy Warhol. Okay, maybe that’s a stretch. Nostalgia is the name of the game, and Can Can does it best. We are equipped to host up to 550 guests for food, merriment and celebration. Think of us as a blank canvas of fun; a one-stop-shop for family and loved ones.
