We’ve been photographing weddings for nearly 20 years, which means we always love it when we see something new at a wedding. Something we’ve never seen before. At Tina and Andy’s July wedding at Black Canyon Inn, that thing was a “shitshow of children.” In talking to Tina leading up to the wedding day, she…
Nearly 10 years ago, we had a super interesting “first” during a wedding in Evergreen, Colorado. Instead of a child or a dog, the couple chose to have a hawk carry their rings down the aisle. It was a joy for us to photograph and something we never thought we would see again. Fast forward…
If you follow our work, you know that we love taking photos of our couples under the stars. It’s a tricky thing to pull off, but ever since doing our first Milky Way photo at a wedding back in 2017, we’ve been hooked. We’ll sometimes pull our couple out of the reception for 10 minutes…
We capped off our 2025 wedding season in style with Luisa and Guillermo’s incredibly fun Cartagena destination wedding! We already had a trip planned to Rionegro, Colombia, just outside of Medellin, to teach a photography workshop with our friend, Christian Cardona. We’ve taught a workshop together each of the last five years, usually in Colorado….
I was hanging out near the Mandap before Anika and Mihir’s Lake Tahoe Indian wedding when the officiant came over and struck up a conversation. “Where are you from?” he asked. “Colorado,” I said. He took a beat and said, “There are a million photographers here. Why did they hire you?” I thought about it…
As anyone from Colorado can tell you, certain parts of the Rocky Mountains turn a vibrant yellow color in the fall as the aspen leaves begin to change. This is the most popular time of year for family photos and one of the most popular times for weddings as well. But never have we seen…
One of our favorite parts of photographing weddings in Colorado is the outdoor ceremonies. The state has so many beautiful vistas, nobody wants to be cooped up indoors. The only potential downside is the possibility of inclement weather. But while it did, in fact, pour rain for a good portion of Sarah and Joe’s fall…
We’ve photographed a lot of weddings at The Boulders at Black Canyon Inn. I mean, a lot. But the venue is so cool, we always find something new to photograph. We could probably do a hundred more weddings at The Boulders and not repeat the same photo. But sometimes, instead of doing all of the…
Moira and I always talk about how the single best thing you can do on your wedding day is relinquish control. Go with the flow. Roll with the punches. Never has this idea come to fruition more so than it did at Thy and Cristian’s Breckenridge elopement. Things are inevitably going to go “wrong” on…
A little over 10 years ago, we had the pleasure of photographing a wedding in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. The bride was a friend of mine from high school and the three days we spent with her and her husband (and their families) were an absolute blast. Fast forward to August of this year, I…
We’re back after a three-month break from blogging while we made our way through the busiest part of our 2025 wedding season. Now it’s time to see what we’ve been up to since August. First up: Madi and Drew’s super fun Estes Park wedding at The Boulders! As those who have been following us already…
Jesse and I first learned of Steel Horse weddings when we left the buzz of city life for the raven calls of rural living. One of the side effects we were hoping to experience was a bit more disconnection from the digital world so many of us get sucked into these days. However, we have…
