Best of 2019

Two thousand nineteen was one of our busiest (and most fulfilling) years to date with 34 shoots in 5 states and 2 countries, spanning the course of 104 days on the road and covering 48,079 miles. As we do every year at this time, we wanted to compile all our our best wedding photos from 2019 in one place.

Highlights from the past 12 months include a three-day destination wedding in St. Lucia (complete with a sea urchin sting), our first ever wedding at the historical Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Alt Sessions at three of the most ethereal and awe-inspiring locations the southwestern United States has to offer (Bonneville Salt Flats in western Utah, Colorado Paint Mines and White Sands National Monument in southern New Mexico) and an incredibly fun promo shoot for an MMA gym owned by one of our past couples!

We also taught two more Iconoclasm Workshops with 20 wonderful photographers and human beings from all over the U.S. and abroad. Oh, and how could we forget about the epic and rejuvenating Two Mann Studios alumni reunion in Bali?

I could go on and on, but it’s best to just get to cut straight to the good part. Without further preamble, here are the best wedding photos of 2019! Taken by us, of course. Other people take awesome photos too.
