shawn + christie MARRIED!! South Dakota wedding photography
categories & archives >>

Shawn + Christie’s river-side wedding was beautiful and casual at the same time. The River Rock Lodge has the most scenic overlook to the Missouri River, and the set-up made the day feel more like a family reunion where guests could mingle, eat, wander, and enjoy the breeze on the patio.

Another example: Christie’s TOMS wedges = comfy… Christie’s wedding gown = GORGEOUS

How often do you see a bride get down on the floor to put her own shoes on? LOVE!!

Christie and her dad were the most smiliest father-daughter duo I’ve ever seen walk down the aisle!

I LOVE that when I told Shawn + Christie to ‘do a little dance’ on the dock, they did THIS!!

When we got back to the lodge after doing photos down by the river, the lighting was so beautiful and the sky was like cotton candy, so we just *had* to take a couple more photos. (All of my couples know that I’m never done with portraits until I say “just one more” once or twice.) :-)

A final example of how this wedding was both beautiful and casual… belting out their first dance song under cafe lights and a twilight sky.

Shawn + Christie – Thanks so much for bringing me out to Pierre for your wedding! I may have cried big tears over leaving my baby girl for a couple nights, but you and your love + excitement on your wedding day made being away the best it could have been! Thanks for being so wonderful!! :-)
