Savana and Alex were married at the Chapel at Beaver Creek on Saturday, October 29th.  There is something special about photographing a wedding in the Colorado Mountains, especially in the Autumn.  We had some snow on the ground, but it wasn’t so cold that we couldn’t go outside.  Even so, it felt really good to snuggle by the fire at the end of the evening!  The reception was held at the Ritz Carlton in Beaver Creek.  Wow, what a spectacular place!  Once again, I joined by my good friend Randy Cupps, who has a special talent for making every wedding we shoot together a fun and memorable event.  Thanks Savana and Alex for including us on your wedding day!

Nickie and Kevin were married at the Golden Hotel on September 17th.  The ceremony was outside, despite a heavy rain that delayed the proceedings.  We waited it out and as luck would have it, the clouds broke and we hustled through an abbreviated ceremony and post ceremony photos.  In the end, we had tons of fun and captured some great shots along the way.  I was joined for the day by Edward DeCroce.  Ed is a great guy with oodles of talent.  Although this was the first time Ed and I have shot together, we instantly reached a comfort level I knew would yield a fun day with awesome images – and I was right!  Thanks Nickie & Kevin for including us in your wedding day!View full post »

Gina and Jason were married at the Denver Botanic Gardens on September 10, 2011.  Every once in awhile we run into a couple who is so comfortable in front of a camera that I rarely have to give direction and these two totally fit the bill.  We spent the first hour or so with Gina and the girls as they got ready at The Oxford Hotel in downtown Denver.  Throughout the ceremony and after, we were treated to a beautiful cloudless Colorado September afternoon – nothing better!  After the ceremony, we made our way through the gardens, having fun and making some awesome images.  After leaving the gardens, we visited the Cheesman Park Pavilion for a few more images in the columns.  Again, we barely spoke two words to these guys the whole time.  They were just having fun with each other, so we just tried to keep up, hovering about snapping like crazy!  Eventually we made our way to The Denver Aquarium for the reception.  For their table center pieces, Gina and Jason used candy dishes filled with candy and topped with vintage collectors comic books.  I’ve seen some pretty cool center pieces in my time, but these were definitely the most unique, definitely a very cool touch.

I was joined once again by Randy Cupps, who easily the best kept secret in Denver wedding photography!  Randy’s keen eye for capturing a unique perspective is the perfect compliment to any wedding day and I am fortunate to have him lending his awesome talents!

Nikki and Tyler were married in Boulder Colorado on September 3rd at St John’s Episcopal Church; a beautiful church featuring classic architecture and stained glass throughout.  The reception was at the St. Julian Hotel.

Before leaving for the hotel, Nikki and Tyler had their “first glance” in the hotel courtyard.  The first glance is a great way for the bride and groom to have a private first moment with each other before the ceremony without a thousand eyes upon them.  It also offers a great photo opportunity!  During our planning for photos, Nikki, Tyler wanted to make sure we had time for some fun photos in and around Boulder.  After some discussion, we set a plan in motion that would take us from the church to Chautauqua Park and then on to a turn out on Highway 93 overlooking the flat irons – all via party bus!  What a fun crowd!  Just set them up and turn them on and they do the rest – all I have to do is push the button! I was joined for the day by Krista Cooley of Cooley Photography.  Krista and I have worked together a few times and I must say, she is an uber-talented photographer with lots of great ideas, a keen eye, great with people, and is always ready to help out where needed.  Many of the photos in this set were taken by Krista – mostly the editorial/journalistic/fun/awesome shots!

Thanks Nikki and Tyler for including us in your most excellent wedding! View full post »
