I'm photographing this beautiful girl's wedding today. So excited!

Rachel and Jake's Groomals

Funny story: When I was photographing Rachel and Jake's groomal session, I kept putting Rachel in these tall, tall grasses, or in the middle of the fields, smack dab in nature, pollen flying, grass blowing. And she never said, nay. But Rachel has wicked bad allergies, and it wasn't until I noticed that her eyes were red (super, super red) and watery, that I caught on. I felt so bad. No one wants a bride crying during their session (unless it's happy tears.) But when I think of Rachel and Jake, I think of how that epitomizes how kind and laid back and awesome they both are. Rachel and Jake might be the easiest couple I have ever worked with. I know Rachel is super, super gorgeous (I mean look at her!), but she is so genuine. And watching them together was truly a pleasure. The best part of my job is making connections with people, and becoming a part of their family for a day or so. I'm so happy for the two of them, and I know great things are in store.

Thank you Rachel and Jake for a beautiful session. And Rachel, I'm really, really sorry I didn't notice that you had crazy allergies. Now I always ask before I have a bride step into grass :)

SL Country Club Groomals ~ Elle and Mike

Whenever I see the bottom right photo here, I keep singing,

"We're painting the roses red!" I have been watching a lot of, "Alice in Wonderland" with Lucy. But I love these red roses. I saw them when I pulled into the parking lot. In fact, there are a whole lot of cars just on the other side of them. You wouldn't even know, right? We hid them! But what I love even more is sweet Ellie and Mike. This was a blustery, blustery day, and we thought it might rain, but it didn't. Instead, we got lots of pretty light, and lots of crazy wind, and Elle was beautiful and Mike handsome.

Her dress was custom made by Melissa Blackburn, and was so amazing. Can you see the detail work in the skirt? Unreal. Dresses have come so far since my wedding 11 years ago. I'm a little jealous. Her flowers were by Caroline May, whose lovely work I have seen so much of this year.

Ellie and Mike were married last Thursday, another blustery day that threatened to rain, but didn't. Congratulations you two! Ellie and Mike are having a Greece honeymoon. I might be a little jealous about that too :)

I'm shooting this beautiful couples wedding today!

Kirstin and David

There is so many wonderful things I could say about this session,

How gorgeous Kirstin is, or how lovely the light was, or how great David is, or how much I liked Kirstin's family (hi guys!), or that I thought her dress was stunning, and Cinderellish, in the most beautiful, simple way. Or how Kirstin almost fainted and her mom had to run and get snacks from the mental hospital (okay, that part might not be wonderful, but it's a funny story, now.)

I wont say any of those things though, and just show you the pictures. Because I LOVE them. Kirstin and David are tying the knot next week, and although I'm sad I couldn't be there on their big day, I'm so happy I got to know them with their engagements and bridals. Good luck next week! I wish you the most beautiful Colorado wedding ever!

Kirstin and David

Another little peak. I promise, full posts are coming soon, once I catch a little bit of air. In the meantime, I just downloaded this sitting today. And I have to say, I'm in love. Cosmic forces aligned on this one. Kirstin, you are one gorgeous lady!

Willow Trees Are My New Favorite

Just a peak of Elle and Mike's Groomal session. Her dress was made by the uber-talented Melissa Blackburn, and so in a word, Gorgeous! 

I can't wait to share more post wedding

Joe and Natalie

It's 2:00 AM and I can't sleep (typical after a wedding), but I will make this post short and sweet.

Natalie's wedding dress is fantastic! Joe and Natalie are fantastic too.

Good night!
