Regina and John decided that Colorado would be the perfect place to have their engagement portraits done, despite the fact that they will be getting married next summer on Coronado Island outside of San Diego.  These two were hoping for snow, and lots of it.  We didn’t have a lot, but we did have a little bit to work with…and they had a great time playing around in it (while freezing their hands off!). Regina and John are two amazing people. Regina is a preschool teacher for special needs children (and happens to be my… Read More »

Karen and Nate are two of the sweetest people who are very much in love.  Their entire wedding day at the Hudson Gardens in Denver radiated with the special sweet love that is shared between them. Karen glowed in her gown by Martina Liana Gowns purchased at the amazing Anna Be in Denver. The flowers from The Little Flower Market added to the beauty of the naturally gorgeous Hudson Gardens Venue. And the reception went off without a hitch with the help of The DJ Guy and a delicious cake made by the Makery. Karen… Read More »

Well, as promised here is the second part of Lillee & Shawn’s amazing wedding at the Newagen Inn in Southport Maine. In Lillee’s words “As the amazing night wore on, east did meet west and clothing changed over to comfortable summer dresses and shirts and ties; and thanks to our amazing band, the dancing never stopped!” And I may have forgotten to mention, there was a small big weather threat, Hurricane Irene!  It was forecasted to roll into Maine sometime- from the middle of the night to the middle of the next day.  So there was added tension and drama since… Read More »

Oh where do I begin?  This wedding was an unbelievable treat and honor to photograph. When one of your dearest friends asks you to photograph their wedding a mix of emotions floods over you.  (At least for me)  I was filled with excitement but I felt a lot of pressure too.  I wanted to capture everything.  Every moment. Every ounce of excitement. Every meaningful detail.  I put a lot of pressure on myself, and since it was a destination wedding I was shooting solo, so that also added to my nerves- I kept thinking will… Read More »

I had a wonderful evening with Pam & Brock and their darling dog Meatball on the CSU campus.  Even though I am a Buff (sorry Rams!)- it’s always fun to get out on a college campus and explore.  CSU’s oval is a gorgeous place and we had a great time running up and down the sidewalk with Meatball in tow. Congratulations you two!  I wish you tons of happiness with all the fun changes coming your way- graduation, applications to law school, a potential move, and a wonderful marriage!  All the best, Rachel  

I had the best evening with Anne & Adam- despite the amazing amount of mosquitoes attacking us!  We all braved it and laughed our way through the session as Anne would swat Adam to get the mosquitoes off. Anne and Adam showed up well prepared- fantastic!  They had thier tree stump in hand (literally at times for Adam as he hauled it around for us) and their clothes ready to go.  I absolutely love it when couples get into the “style” of their session. Anne and Adam will be getting married next summer up in Grand Lake- I can’t… Read More »

From the first time I spoke to Aly on the phone, I knew that I was going to love working with her.  And then when I had the opportunity to mett Aly and Matt in person when they came out last winter to finalize their wedding plans…I couldn’t wait for their big day!  The two of them are so fun to be around.  They are wonderful people with hearts of gold, and you get that sense immediately.  I was so excited for their wedding this summer in Breckenridge. So, their big day finally arrived and… Read More »

Some fun surprises were thrown in by Sarah’s family- like her sister’s tear and laughter inducing… Read More »
