Wedgewood Wedding
Our next wedding came right on the heels of Saturday’s Mon Cheri wedding. Sydney & Ben tied the knot at Wedgewood on Boulder Creek on their seventh anniversary. Though they’ve already been through so much together, you can tell just by watching them that the best is yet to come. Starting with a honeymoon in…
Mon Cheri Wedding
We met Erin and Wade because of a Powerpoint presentation. Erin assembled it to persuade Wade, an analytical type, to book us as their photographers (we hear there were animations involved). And boy are we glad it worked because we got to spend a beautiful Saturday with the couple at their super fun Mon Cheri…
Shadow Mountain Ranch Wedding
Here’s some life advice: marry someone who will have inflatable raptor fights with you. Leigh and Tyler are lucky to have found their raptor fight partners in each other. Their dinosaur-themed Shadow Mountain Ranch wedding was the perfect laid-back party to celebrate their marriage. The day started with their first look by a quiet stream…
River Bend Wedding
Perhaps the most amazing thing about weddings in Colorado is the fantastic natural beauty of the surroundings. Katy and Adam’s River Bend wedding was no different. Not only was the location impressive, combining red sandstone, a cool river, and bright green trees, they made sure to incorporate Colorado’s wild nature into their wedding details. The…
Off the Clock: Alaska
Whether it’s for business or pleasure, Moira and I love to travel. And it’s been a lifelong goal of mine to visit each of the 50 states. I’ve been stuck at 49 for the better part of a decade and my white whale (Alaska) has been very near the top of my travel wishlist for…
Chatfield Gardens Wedding
It’s been a season of firsts for us – from a nighttime portrait with the Denver skyline in the background to a pre-wedding snowboarding shoot at Beaver Creek. And while we’ve had plenty of adorable dogs and children as ring bearers, last weekend was the first time we had a mini-pig trot the rings down…
Larimer Square Engagement
Those of you who know us know our propensity for always trying something new and different. Well, we had the holy grail of photo shoots for our Larimer Square engagement on Thursday evening: beautiful sunset, perfect weather, new equipment to try out and a couple who was enthusiastic about letting us work on some fresh techniques. Joe is a…
University of Denver Wedding
There’s a lot you can say about Colorado, but you certainly can’t say the weather here is boring. We saw clouds, a little bit of sun popping out, light drizzle, torrential downpour, snow flurries, and even graupel at Alliy and Phil’s University of Denver wedding on Saturday. But I was most impressed by the couple’s attitudes through the entire day. They…
Do Wedding Photographers Photoshop Wedding Photos?
“Can’t you just Photoshop it?” We get this question at least once per wedding. Maybe it’s an overcast day. Or there are construction cranes in the skyline. Or the ring bearer’s face is red and puffy from crying. One time, a bold groomsman asked if I could “copy and paste” him into the photos later…
How Many Wedding Photos Do We Get?
I recently read a comment from a bride-to-be on a wedding planning website that caught my attention. The topic of the thread was something along the lines of, “How many wedding photos do I get from my photographer after the wedding?” The bride in question said that she would expect “no fewer than 2,000” photos…
Should We Get the Copyright for Our Wedding Photos?
In this article, we’ll be discussing the difference between wedding photo copyright and printing release and talk about which you should expect to receive from your wedding photographer. Let’s dive in. What is a copyright? While the term literally means “the right to copy,” the practical definition is significantly more far-reaching. As an artist –…
6 Reasons to Have an Unplugged Wedding
With the technological advances of the past decade, the means to photograph digitally have been made available to everyone, and at a reasonable price. Be it a consumer-grade SLR, a compact point and shoot, or an iPhone or iPad, we can all snap pictures whenever a photo-op presents itself. And that’s a great thing! For…
