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…
Mia and Scott never thought they would get married. And once they decided to get married, they never thought they would have a wedding. Instead, like many couples these days, they were leaning toward an elopement. Then, after giving it some thought, they realized that they really wanted to share a celebration with their closest…
After 17 years of photographing weddings, it’s rare that we experience a “first” on a wedding day. But during Nassia and Jeff’s Pinecrest wedding reception in Colorado Springs, we experienced a very cool first. But let’s back up a moment. When Nassia and Jeff first reached out to us in November of last year, Jeff…
One of our favorite things about Colorado weddings is hiking to remote places in the mountains to take photos with the newlyweds. Sometimes, we do this for the engagement session. Sometimes, we do this for the day-after session. And sometimes, we manage to do this on the actual day of the wedding. Such was the…
Midway through the reception at Sarah and Austin’s Estes Park wedding at Black Canyon Inn, I was standing at the venue’s large plate glass windows overlooking the Rocky Mountains trying to determine if the sunset would be interested enough to take the bride and groom outside for sunset photos. I was slightly bummed out because…
We have been photographing weddings in Colorado since 2008 and we have mainly worked in the state’s more well-known destinations like Vail, Aspen, Breckenridge, Estes Park, and so forth. But this past wedding season, we took a few days to explore some of Colorado’s hidden gem venues. During this process, we had the pleasure of…
Amelia and Jeff’s SkyView wedding at Fall River Village was quite possibly the windiest wedding we’ve ever photographed. Which is saying a lot because we’ve been doing this for 17 years. And most of our weddings are in the Rocky Mountains. It was one of those days where you couldn’t hear yourself think. One of…
One of the main reasons we decided to move to Colorado 16 years ago was the state’s natural beauty. We’re also huge fans of national parks and Colorado is home to four of the coolest national parks in the U.S. While we have been fortunate to spend time in all four of them, Amelia and…
Generally speaking, when you’re planning a wedding, you book a venue and hire a planner first. But in the case of Kass and Zack’s Taharaa Mountain Lodge wedding, the first item on their to-do list was to pick a photographer. In fact, they even included this info on their wedding program (see photo below): “Days…
