Shhhhh! Don’t tell anyone they were married a few months ago! Last month Angela and Quin tied the knot again, this time in front of all their loved ones, and it was wonderful. The way he looks at her is so sweet! Angela’s a nurse and Quin’s a sherriff’s deputy — both of them are heroes, is it any wonder they were drawn to each other? Congratulations you two, I was honored to document a little slice of your happiness!

In front of the Royal Tavern in downtown Manitou Springs. I’ve always wanted to do a shot like this!

Colorado wedding photography — Janet & Gene’s wedding in Manitou Springs

Janet and Gene were married on June 5th in Manitou Springs, with family members traveling from as far away as Germany to celebrate with them. Most of Janet’s loved ones flew in from New Jersey, which was great because these people know how to party! ;o) We had such a blast, and Janet made me cry three times, darn it. I’m such a sucker for a sentimental bride!

Janet got a little emotional right before Gene was to see her for the first time that day.


Signing the Ketubah

Gene and Janet had a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony, immediately after which he threw her over his shoulder and double-timed it down the aisle, cracking everybody up.



Janet dislikes being photographed — I tried my hardest not to drive her crazy all day! I think she looks excited and beautiful in this photo.

Love the wine cork escort card holders — nice touch!


Janet’s expression was priceless as she was lifted into the air during the Horah. Hilarious!


KILLER party!


Cadet Chapel wedding: Morgan & Mark!

Did you watch the royal wedding? I did! Yes, Prince William and his bride make a beautiful couple, but I have an even more gorgeous couple to show you! Mark and Morgan’s wedding at the Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel was perfection. Rain was predicted and we got sunshine, Morgan looked like a modern day Grace Kelly, and Mark was dashing in his dress blues. I love a good old fashioned saber arch, and when zombies enter the fray… well that’s just icing on the proverbial wedding cake!

Grace Kelly, anyone? Wow!


A gust of wind picked up Morgan’s train at just the right moment.

The Cadet Chapel is a beautiful place for a wedding.


Mark and his mom, moments after the ceremony.


Love the stained glass in the Cadet Chapel — gorgeous!







Morgan dancing with her dad.

Mark dancing with his mom.

Mark’s grandmother caught the bouquet, and her reaction was PRICELESS.

The DJ played Thriller so I asked everyone to zombie dance, with hilarious results.






The rings, in front of Mark’s iPhone. I took the picture of them kissing the night before, at the rehearsal, so I could set up this picture the next day.

Bid on one of my photos!

Did you know that I have a daily photo blog? It’s called Colorado Springs Daily Photo, and it’s where I share photos of and musings about my city. I’ve donated the above image from CS Daily Photo to a silent auction to help a local family adopt a 6 year-old Ethiopian child! The image will be archivally printed at 8×12″ and signed by yours truly. You can bid on it and many other cool items here: http://pureeaway.blogspot.com/

Colorado fashion photography: presenting Miss Modernism!

[ fashion photography in Denver ]

Here’s Denver’s reigning Miss Modernism, Jaime Askvig! We did this photo shoot last weekend in Denver with the help of our mutual friend Jenn. Jaime is as in love with mid-century modern style as I am, and between the two of us I think we have enough 1950’s-60’s clothing, jewelry and accessories to start our own vintage shop.

This shoot was a blast! I couldn’t resist making a faux Vogue cover out of one of my favorite shots. Congratulations Jaime on your win, you’re the best Miss Modernism ever!

Don’t you love the robin’s egg blue dress?!? It’s handmade! The purse belonged to my mom in the 1960’s.

So ladylike!


That’s actually a candy cigarette. I “lit” it in Photoshop.

To get this expression I told Jaime to look out the window, the cabana boy is out there and he just took off his shirt ;^)

Sassy!

I really like this shot. Jaime looks FABULOUS.



I just opened the book to a random page and instructed Jaime to look shocked. It turns out I had landed on the most scandalous part of the book (if you’ve read Peyton Place, you know what part I’m talking about). Funny!


Jaime’s red opera cloak is to DIE for!



Jaime’s mom made the sash for her. The tiara was part of her winnings, and the necklace belonged to her grandmother.
