angela + ryan {wed}
It's not every weekend I get to be IN a wedding, let alone play the role of Maid of Honor AND photographer, but this particular weekend I was. My brother, Ryan and his beautiful wife Angela tied the knot on April 25th!  It was so much fun!! 




It was a cold and windy day, but we found an awesome blooming tree in front of a brick building downtown Storm Lake {Iowa}, that made for the perfect backdrop and some of my favorite shots from the day.







 In the alley behind the building there was a fire escape... perfect!


Across from the fire escape was the back alley door to a flooring business... 
painted some awesomely cool colors!







Dads share a laugh...



Our sister Kris (who was also a bridesmaid) was in charge of the wedding cake, perfectly matched to our bridesmaid dresses. It turned out awesome. 


Our crafty mom did the grooms cake, to honor Ryan's love for John Deere tractors since childhood. Complete with black licorice tires!


It was a fabulous day full of love, family, fun and lots of laughs. Special thanks to my cousin Kathy Olson-Anderson and my boyfriend John for helping with the photography when I needed to switch 'hats' throughout the day. Congratulations Ryan and Angela on your beautiful wedding and for having me be such a big part of it! Welcome to the family, Angela :) {s.j}
