To cap off our 2024 wedding season, we ventured out on a long road trip across five states for Hillary and Todd’s super fun Bend, Oregon wedding at Lake Creek Lodge. Since hitting my goal of visiting each of the 50 states back in 2016, I have since set another (loose) goal of photographing a…
If I had to pick three words to sum up Betsy and Scot’s Denver Botanic Gardens Chatfield Farms wedding, it would be “family” and “found family.” Come to think of it, that’s really only two words. But I digress. Both sets of parents were in attendance and Betsy’s siblings stood in as her bridespeople. Scot…
When we first moved to Boulder and started our wedding photography business in 2008, the Greenbriar Inn was one of the very first venues we photographed. In the 16 years since, we’ve had the pleasure of working many more weddings there, but Sydney and Jacob’s fall wedding at Greenbriar Inn marked the first time we…
At the beginning of Laura and Austin’s Evergreen, Colorado wedding day, Austin turned to me and asked “Want a beer?” I said something like “maybe later” and he came back with “If you can’t do your job after two beers, you’re probably in the wrong line of work.” I thought to myself, “Well, that’s a…
There was no rest for the weary after Elizabeth and John’s Denver Botanic Gardens wedding. The very next day, we made our way to LoDo for Zoe and and Charlie’s engagement session in downtown Denver. We started at one of our all-time favorite bars, Seven Grand Denver. Since Zoe and Charlie are getting married next…
We’ve been working at the Denver Botanic Gardens for the past 15 years. It’s one of our favorite places to shoot weddings and to hang out, just for fun, taking in the plethora of flora throughout the grounds. Elizabeth and John’s summer wedding at Denver Botanic Gardens marked the first time we have photographed both…
After Rayleen and Bryan’s Zapata Falls engagement near the Great Sand Dunes, we continued west to the far southwestern corner of the state for Julie and Ryan’s Cortez, Colorado elopement. One of our favorite things about Colorado is its topographical diversity. Never have we seen this on display during one shoot quite the way that…
We’re back! After a two-month hiatus, we have officially wrapped up editing for all of our 2024 weddings, so it’s time to get caught up on blog posts. First up: Rayleen and Bryan’s Zapata Falls engagement! Full disclosure, this wasn’t actually an engagement session, but a couple’s portrait session. That said, we’re calling it an…
During the pre-ceremony portrait session at Jenny and Dustin’s summer wedding at Black Canyon Inn, Jenny turned to me and said, “I can’t wait for the dance party.” Approximately six hours later, I found out why. Sometimes, photographing a dance party at a wedding for three straight hours can feel a bit monotonous. There are…
Alright, technically this was Kass and Zack’s post-wedding session, but as an offering to the SEO gods, we’re calling it their EDM engagement session. For their wedding in February, Kass and Zack had a whole bunch of cool light-up stuff, like string lights, glow sticks, marquee letters and, our personal favorite, matching LED jackets. The…
Most traditional wedding timelines are tight. This happens, then that happens, then the other thing happens and there’s very little time in between all of these things to take a breath. I’m happy to report that this was not at all the case with Claire and Ben’s Blackstone Rivers Ranch wedding. The bride and groom-to-be…
For Moira’s brother’s wedding a few years ago, my now brother and sister in-law decided not to have a cake. Instead, they had pie. This was a big point of contention in the family at the time. One family member proclaimed “You can’t have a wedding without cake!” Well, I’m here to tell you that…
