We were so lucky to have as many beautiful fall days as we did this year. It made the job of photographing October weddings, like Kristin and Brody’s, so much easier!
When shooting weddings after the beginning of October, you usually have to wonder and wait to see what the foliage will look like, as it’s never exactly the same, year to year. I always keep an eye on websites that predict when trees will change and show you foliage maps so I have an idea of what is in store for me to use as a backdrop for photography. Kristin and Brody had the good fortune to have pretty leaves, a dry, sunny day and mild temperatures.
One of the main locations we used for Kristin and Brody was Mines of Spain, in Dubuque, Iowa. This is a park that sits high above the Mississippi River and lets you see the city from an amazing vantage point. We were happy that there was still a mix of color and trees that were hanging onto their leaves.
We’ll have more images and wedding details to come!
