These two teachers met at work in January of 2012 while teaching high school math. Matt and Meagan found the time in their very busy schedules to get to know each other in between teaching, coaching basketball, and directing plays at the school.

Their dedication to their students drew them together and on November 21st of 2012 they had their official first date. Three years later, this wonderful couple is ready to tie the knot!

With the wedding plans in motion and a busy school season underway, this day out on Park Point was a perfect way for Matt and Meagan to relax and just enjoy some time together. The fall colors were in full swing and the sunshine warmed the air just enough to stay cozy.

I had a lot of fun with these two and I can’t wait for the wedding next month! Congratulations!

Eric and Deanna’s Duluth Wedding

City: Destination, City: Duluth, MN Venue: , ,


Deanna and Eric were in graduate school when they first met. Both were pursuing degrees in the Human Resource Development field and were in some of the same classes. During a semester final, they took notice of each other as they handed in their tests at the same time. A casual conversation in the hallway afterward led to a whole lot more when the two began dating soon after the New Year in 2011.

In 2013 these lovebirds took a trip to California. Deanna was so happy to be in the sand with the water crashing at her legs on Pebble Beach that Eric suddenly knew he wanted to marry that girl. Fast- forward to 2014, when on a short trip back to the same spot, Eric got to fulfill his vision of a proposal on the beach. Deanna said “Yes!” and they celebrated their new engagement over lunch with good friends.

The proposal happened near the Pacific Ocean, and their big day was held along the shores of Lake Superior. The Fitger’s courtyard was perfect for some romantic photos, and the intimate ceremony was laid-back and relaxed among the flowers of the Rose Garden, near Duluth’s Leif Erikson Park and iconic Lake Walk. Eric and Deanna were happy to just enjoy their parents’ company and have this beautiful event be only about their love for each other. I am honored to have been able to capture this special day for them.

Congratulations Eric and Deanna! Have fun in Maui!
