One of my favorite parts of being a wedding photographer in Colorado is discovering “hidden” gems around our state. I had often seen a colorful dome peeking out of the forest between Fort Collins and Laramie, but I never knew quite what it was. When Mireille and Josh told me their Red Feather Lakes wedding…
Melissa and Matt had grand plans for an Evergreen Lake House wedding with a ceremony on the lake, but the weather certainly kept us on our toes. As I pulled up to the hotel where they were getting ready, the clouds were rolling in ominously. The girls were checking the weather every few minutes and…
As soon as I met Sarah and Andrew, I knew this was going to be a special wedding. First of all, they are two of the kindest, most genuine people I have ever met. They have already faced significant challenges early in their relationship and supported each other unconditionally throughout. And, while many brides may…
One of the best parts of being a Colorado wedding photographer is discovering all the beautiful locations this state has to offer! This was my second Chief Hosa Lodge wedding, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite “hidden” venues. Owned and managed by the Denver parks department, it’s a beautiful stone building with fantastic…
I love when a couple uses a venue that holds special significance to them. In this case, Liz and Scott chose to hold the ceremony in her childhood church. Liz loved the idea of a Broadmoor wedding, but wanted the ceremony itself to be held at St. Paul’s Catholic church. They struck the perfect balance! …
They say it’s good luck for it to rain on your wedding day. For Thuy and Eugene’s sake, I hope that’s true! Their Hudson Gardens wedding on the Fourth of July had to be moved indoors at the last minute due to some menacing storm clouds, but luckily the venue was quick to accommodate. I…
I love backyard weddings! Jessica and Timothy rented an amazing cabin outside of Monument, Colorado. Their closest friends and family were chosen to celebrate their Black Forest wedding. They did all the decorations themselves and even had a bouncy castle for guests to enjoy… although it ended up being so hot outside that it quickly…
There’s nothing quite like the first wedding of the spring. The flowers are starting to bloom, while Coloradans wonder if it’s finally safe to pack away the sweaters for awhile. For Brian and Bethany, the day was warm but overcast; a perfect transition into the balmy months ahead. The Lodge at Cathedral Pines, just outside…
After planning my own wedding, I really can’t blame people when they decide to elope! There were many late nights of seating charts and glue sticks where I sometimes wished I had done the same. Elizabeth & Edward decided to skip the stress of a large wedding and opted for an intimate vacation weekend in…
Paul and Eileen had such a beautiful, sentimental ceremony. The church they chose (Ryssby Church in Longmont) is one of the oldest in Colorado. Although it was just above freezing outside and the church lacks electricity, the sole wood-burning stove did an amazing job of keeping us warm. It reminded me a lot of the…
