October 12th... and it's snowing!?

Oh man... While Minnesota weather is always unpredictable, sometimes, it still surprises us! It is, indeed, snowing a significant amount today. The past few days have been SUPER cold-- especially as a photographer, and for my subjects! Julianna and Kyle tied the knot yesterday, and they knew that, while cold, we would still get fantastic shots outside with some of the fall colors. The bridal party and families all braved the brief bit of cold while we did our best to snap some quick photos-- photos I know they will absolutely love, and not ever regret going outside for!

From what I've read on Facebook status updates, most people are enjoying the bit of snow today. People are coping by purchasing specialty seasonal coffee drinks at our local coffee shops, lighting holiday scented candles, and keeping warm and snuggley with sweaters, sweatpants and sweatshirts (Side note: Writing those three words together makes me wonder why the creators of those words used the word "sweat" in all three... sure, they help us to stay warm, but "sweat" is a little gross! I mean, a "Sweater." Why couldn't we have called it a "warmer?" That's what it does for me-- makes me warmer!).

Here are a few photos from out my window earlier today:


As you can see, most of the leaves haven't even had a chance to change colors yet!



A snow this early is never expected to last... So I think that's one reason that Minnesotans aren't' complaining... yet, ha:)


Stay warm!
(I know my friends in other states are... you punks!)
