Steph + Roxie
Hard to believe it's been a year since we were a part of this beautiful and magical day, dancing our asses off with Steph + Roxie. To say these two are fun, gorgeous, lovely inside + out, would be a massive understatement. They are the best and we are better for knowing them.
Huge thanks to our other dear friend, Amy, for bringing us together. When you become really good friends with your friend’s friends. It’s that full circle of friendship + love, and we love Roxie + Steph.

Mak + Jesse
These two were a long time coming. They are one of those relationships that everyone around them knew they would be a great couple, thought that they would fit so well together, but it just took them a little longer to see it. Their story is one of friendship turned to love, so probably the best kind of love story.
Makayla is a high school friend of Jenny’s. They grew up together, so, pretty close to the same age, give or take…we’ll let you be the judge of who is older and who is younger. Being friends since high school makes shooting this wedding all that much sweeter. Not that you need much because Mak + Jesse are two of the kindest folks around. We were so lucky to be a part of this day, but luckier to be friends with these two fools.
Love you both! Cheers to you.

Mallory + Ryan
The running joke was that their out of town family kept asking if they’d need winter boots for their October / Minnesotan wedding…sure enough. If you added hail to the forecast we might have hit every type of weather imaginable. Let’s just say it was a day we won’t soon forget. Between the fun + unpredictable weather, Ryan’s dope sock-less loafers look (the level of cool you have to have to pull this look off…damn, Ryan), and their reception with “family style” catering from Brasa (drool), it was a memorable wedding.
Mallory + Ryan, you are two beautiful souls with such kindness. We wish you all the very best.

Abby + Austin
Jenny met Abby back in their college days. Jenny went to Superior-Wisconsin while Abby attended UMD, but the two of them had mutual career moves…Plato’s Closet at one, Burning Tree Plaza. Deeply rooted in their love for thrifted items, Plato’s was the hodgepodge of clothing, customers + co-workers. It was a glorious place to work and be hungover, as often college students are.
Shooting Abby + Austin’s wedding was such a blast from the past, reuniting four ex-Plato’s employees in one spot. It was wonderful getting to be all together again and to witness the evident love shared between the happy couple. Wishing you both only the very best in this world.

McKenzie + Micah
Sweet to their core, McKenzie + Micah is one of those couples who are just kind people. They are thoughtful and genuinely sincere. And their day felt that way…sincere love + genuine admiration for one another. It was a beautiful + sunny day in Minneapolis with a gorgeous sunset to round out the evening.
We wish you both the best! Cheers to your love + life together!

Rachel + Sean
We first met Rachel + Sean at our meeting at the Birchwood Cafe. [ side note: go there. it is awesome.] We hit it off right away, but honestly, it’s really hard not to love these two. They are genuine humans with infectious happiness to them. We gabbed on for most likely too long at the meeting and each left with Netflix “To-Do’s.”
Their wedding day was as wonderful as them. Not to mention stacked with some of our favorite vendors to work alongside. [ cough: Laine Palm + team, you are all wedding wizards. cough: Jess Clewell, you are a gem to work alongside. Days are fun + easy with you and your photography is effortlessly cool. cough: Christi we will forever rave about that reception room. Outdoors…indoors! Amazing. ] Simply put, it was a terrific day and we were reminded why we love our jobs so much. A day filled with love + laughter and really great people.
Cheers to you all.

Beau + Kyle
One of those couples that you instantly want to be friends with…”did we just become best friends?"
Their wedding day was basically Jenny’s boho dreams come true. From Isabeau’s unique Alexis Russell ring to their Crave sushi bar + mini tacos during cocktail hour, the entire day was laid back and plum full of love. Kyle + the boys scootered to Aria as a legit scooter gang and we basically got to hang out all day with Laine + Megan + her hubs, Taylor from Rebel Rabbit Photography. It was one of those weddings where we had a beer at cocktail hour and we look at each other and say, “this is our job?!”
Beau + Kyle, you two are just terrific humans. You’re down to earth, kind, outgoing and we couldn’t be happier for the two of you party animals. All our love.

Katie + John
Katie + John was our first brunch wedding and let us just say we are fans! It included a lot of donuts + mimosas and we have zero complaints. Partnered up with two of our vendor favorites, Laine Palm Planning + Veronica Barnes Photography, we are hoping our first brunch wedding will not be our last. All meals should include breakfast foods…or maybe just bacon specifically.
Katie + John, we wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Brit + Daniel
We met Brit and Daniel for happy hour at the Happy Gnome (rip) and they ordered lobster mac n’ cheese and we knew right then and there that it was a good match.
Their wedding was modern with a twist of edgy, draped with deep blacks, rich reds and pops of gold. Although it was a rainy December day it simply added to the moody vibes we had working for us. With a handmade wedding dress by Brit herself, and a ceremony set at dusk in a front of a roaring fire, this wedding was one for the books.

Claire + Cole
We met Claire + Cole when we shot Cole’s sisters wedding a few years prior. Being able to shoot multiple weddings within one family has always been such a fun experience, especially with the Meyer family. The Meyer’s are a dancing clan, they could potentially rival Gerick’s fam. So of course Claire + Cole’s wedding day including kicking off the reception with a flash mob.
We also just so happen to share a wedding anniversary with these two. Claire + Cole knew that we were celebrating our first wedding anniversary so on top of planning their own stunning + extravagant day, they also gave us a shout out in front of all of their guests along with a bottle of bubbly. To say that we work with the kindest, funniest, greatest couples, would still be an understatement.
Claire + Cole, congrats to you both. We wish you only the greatest things in this life!

“Gerick + Jenny were so wonderful to work with! They made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We so enjoyed working with them! We are so pleased with their work and our video is such a wonderful keepsake that we will cherish for a lifetime! We would definitely recommend Engle Olson!”
Abby + Josh
Abby + Josh started dating around the same time we did…which was a perfect excuse for us to become best friends.
These two humans are some of the weirdest, nerdiest, and most delightful people we have every had the pleasure of knowing. When people say things like “soulmates” or “complete each other” we typically think, okay, probably over the top or exaggerated. Not with these two. We actually wonder how they have survived life so long without the other.
Their day suited them; laid back, all about friends + family and lots of Kesha. It was a major dance party that continued until we left and walked one block up to Mayslacks in NE and continued the good times. It was night we won’t forget…and we weren’t even the ones getting married!
We could not be happier for you Josh + Abby. You did it. You found each other! Now enjoy the hell out of this life. Cheers!

“Jenny and Gerick went above and beyond all of our expectations!
Leading up to the day, their communication was prompt, clear, and they really gave us a good sense of what working with them on the day would be like. Then the day came, and it was even better than we could have hoped. Both of us are fairly camera-averse, but we felt comfortable even during the most staged group photos. Feeling at ease and enjoying both of their wonderful company helped relax us and just let us be ourselves and be in the moment - two things I’ve never felt when having my photo taken before.
Both Jenny and Gerick were positive, creative, and willing to improvise and try different things to make the experience really unique. Our wedding was at the Weisman on the U of M campus, and they used the building and the surroundings to our advantage to give us photos that are so “us.” They even brought a drone to get amazing aerial shots!
We are absolutely obsessed with our previews and cannot wait to see the full set soon. If you are considering working with them - do it!”

Lady Vamp Artistry Look Book Volume 1
Lady or Vamp?
We don’t throw around the term “dream team” lightly but it’s a rare thing to get this much artistic talent in one room and we jumped on the chance to film this Look Book for Lady Vamp Artistry. Beyond being a phenomenal hair + makeup artist, Amber has style and vision to see the big picture. We talked on the phone about this shoot and together came up with a shooting style to showcase both the LADY and VAMP looks she wanted to showcase. The dresses, models, flowers, accessories, and music all came together effortlessly in the video and made the editing process so much fun.
We can’t say enough about our good friend Amber, please check her + her work out!

Wicked Love
Together with a crew of über talented local Minneapolis wedding vendors, we were able to collaboratively create this enchantingly eerie inspirational shoot. With a backdrop of decaying leaves and full of that late-fall feeling, the woodland setting was perfect for a captivating + mysterious reception.
This shoot was also featured on Junebug Weddings. Find their full feature link at the bottom.

Rita + Evan
Rita and Evan know how to throw one hell of a party. Their day was filled with love, magic + vodka.
Rita's side of the family is Russian, very Russian. It was our first Jewish-Russian wedding and we hope it wasn't our last. Their families + friends were so over the top welcoming of the two of us, we didn't really want to leave at the end of the night. The band was insane, the dance floor was full and the drinks were flowing. A Sunday wedding has never been this much fun.
We wish these two love birds many years of happiness. Gorka!

“I cannot say enough good things about Gerick and Jenny - they are remarkable. The videos they created of our wedding absolutely blew my mind, and I am SO glad they were there to capture our most special day. My husband and I were hesitant when it came to committing to a videographer, but Gerick and Jenny captured the most beautiful moments in a way that photos can’t. We live in Chicago, and Gerick and Jenny took the time to chat with us on the phone, answer all of our questions, and make sure everything was just perfect. They were also SUCH a pleasure to work with and hang out with on our wedding day. Seriously, hire them.”
