We first met Karissa and Cody during their engagement session at Glencoe Campground in Sturgis. They were so quiet and shy that day
but when we got to Sylvan Lake on their wedding day it was like meeting up with old friends. (Which is why we love engagement sessions!)
The wedding party was a great group of people and they got a little crazy during their photos. So
much fun! Thankfully the only rain that fell was a beautiful soft rain that started and ended
during the unity portion of the ceremony. At the reception Karissa and Cody changed things up
a bit. Instead of a cake the couple decided to have 4 blocks of different flavors of cheese such
as merlot and Gouda. My favorite photos of the day are always after the ceremony. The stress and
nervousness of the day is gone. You can see it in their smiles! At this point they’re up for
almost anything, like Karissa in her beautiful Cinderella like dress walking all the way to the end
of the lake to get some gorgeous end of day shots. Thank you for letting us be a part of your
special day and thanks for putting up with all of my dad jokes. Thanks to JD Productions for keeping them on the dance floor all evening!
Outtakes anyone?
