Jen + Zach's Intimate Backyard Wedding

Nicole + Anthony's Boulder Engagement

Meet Nicole and Anthony. One of the coolest couples around. We had originally planned on shooting their engagement on a Sunday, but I hurt my foot at a wedding the night before and just had to reschedule. Am I happy we did! Not only did it pour rain off and on, but the sun broke free from the clouds a few times giving us some amazing sun flare and literally the most amazing rainbow we had ever seen!

Nikki + Sam's Wedding at The Dunafon Castle

I was looking forward to this one all year. This place is everything you would imagine it to be. The fairytale feeling was very suiting for Nikki & Sam as they tied the knot.

Angela + Bren'ts Dove House Wedding

Angela & Brent had a beautifully intimate wedding on perfect Sunday morning at Dove House.

Meghan + Brandon's Downtown Engagement

When I first scheduled this session, these guys wanted to do it at the Golden Railroad Museum. Sounds awesome! It ended up being about 95 degrees that day and there wasn't an ounce of shade to be found. So we rescheduled and decided to check out Downtown Denver and we had a blast.

Kelly + Nick's Wedding at Lower Lake Ranch

As I left Denver in a scorching 95 degrees, I was worried we would all fry in the sun during the ceremony at Lower Lake Ranch. But as I pulled up, I noticed the temp had dipped to a cool 74. Getting there 2 hours early, I explored a bit. This place is beautiful!

Lindsay + Martin's Wedding on the Table Mesa Trail

Hello!

Lindsay + Jasen's Mountain Top Wedding

It was a long drive to the Farish Recreational Area. But when we arrived my jaw hit the ground! The view of Pikes Peak was breathtaking. I was so taken back by the scenery, that I barely noticed I didn't have cell service. Ok, I noticed, after walking around looking like a fool with my phone in the air, I was able to find that one spot that allowed just enough service to post my signature "It's Go Time" on Facebook!

Sara + Matt's Holy Ghost Catholic Church Wedding

When I first met Sara and Matt, I knew right away I would love this couple! They have this energy that is contagious and a genuine sense of awesomeness...

10 Tips For Perfect Engagement Photos

These days, engagement photos have the rep for being outdated and somewhat tacky or boring. I believe it’s time to take a new look at the old tradition.

These kinds of photos were originally used as something to run along with the engagement announcement in your hometown newspaper. Now that that tradition has gone the way of hope chests and dowries, I say there’s still a reason to do them. “A lot of people use them with save-the-date cards,”. “But one of the most important reasons to have an engagement photo session is that it gives you a chance to get comfortable with the photographer before the wedding, which will likely give you better photos on that day.”

Emily + Jeff's Estes Park Resort Wedding

The last thing Emily & Jeff expected was for it to snow on their wedding day! But it did, and it was beautiful. Even the elk came down to pay a visit.

Water Fun!

During the "off season" I like to keep my creativity alive. I started by setting up in the kitchen. I didn't really get the results I wanted until I added food coloring and some milk! Sounds crazy I know. But hey, in the endI believe I achieved success :) I hope you enjoy.
