The Mill Site | Wedding

It never ceases to amaze me how God orchestrates the people who come into our lives. I firmly believe that He brings them to us for a purpose. During my pregnancy with Logan, I would order my usual Starbucks coffee and a warmed cheese danish every morning. One particular morning, I encountered Bethany in the drive-thru. Instantly drawn to her stunning wedding ring, I couldn’t help but compliment it. Unaware then, it led to capturing Bethany and Jack’s wedding at The Mill Site in Anoka, MN.

As I arrived at the venue, I anticipated seeing Bethany and her bridesmaids preparing for the ceremony. Instead, I found Jack and Bethany’s loved ones bustling about, setting up decorations. With Hershey bars and kisses in hand—a playful nod to Jack’s last name, Hirschi—everyone buzzed with excitement. Their collective energy filled the space, reminiscent of the warmth and love within my own family.

The Mill Site provided a picturesque backdrop for Bethany and Jack’s wedding day. The historic charm of the venue perfectly complemented the beautiful ceremony space where they shared their first kiss as husband and wife. During their reception, their close friends delivered heartfelt tears, showcasing Bethany and Jack’s cherished friendships. It is no surprise that such kind and thoughtful individuals attract equally wonderful people into their lives. You truly learn so much about the Bride and Groom through the speeches at their receptions giving you a deeper insight of who they are and what they mean to their friends and family.

Though our time together on their wedding day was fleeting, I always leave feeling as though I’ve made lasting connections. Bethany and Jack, with your sweet and genuine spirits, you have left an indelible mark on my heart. Capturing your wedding at The Mill Site was an honor, preserving memories for you and your loved ones. I pray for abundant blessings in your marriage together. Thank you again for choosing me as your wedding photographer, it was an honor.
