Colorado Springs wedding :: Christina + Josh

Colorado Springs wedding photographers

This Colorado Springs wedding story is yet another sweet romance that started in high school. I just love a happy ending! Christina and Josh dated as teens and even went to prom together — how I’d love to see those pictures! — then a couple of years later they reconnected during their college years. In short, this celebration was the culmination of years of deep love and yes, enduring friendship. Their families were over the moon! And even though it sure looked like we were going to get dumped on, the rain miraculously held off and we even got some glorious afternoon sunshine.

Christina is not only beautiful and exceptionally smart (she’s a successful attorney), she’s also organized and has very nice taste. This is a bride who had visualized her wedding day since she was a little girl, and she made those ideas come to life at the Mining Exchange on the big day . I loved her sparkly flats, her long, looooooong veil, and the way she incorporated meaningful family heirloom jewelry into her ensemble. She also had her gown altered to eliminate the train, something I don’t see very often. It looked great! Meanwhile, Josh looked extra handsome — and tall — in his black suit and white tie. What a good looking couple they made!

This was such a sweet, sentimental celebration. You could feel the love at this dazzlingly wonderful Colorado Springs wedding! Congratulations Josh and Christina, what a fantastic day!

Denver Public Library wedding :: Melanie + Ben

downtown Denver wedding

This downtown Denver wedding was extra special for me. Melanie is an old friend of mine, and I couldn’t have been more honored to be asked to document her wedding to Ben. Where else should they hold this very special event than at the place where they met: the iconic Denver Public Library! In fact, they didn’t just meet there, they both worked there (though Melanie has since moved on to a different branch). What a special place to get married! Both the ceremony and reception took place in the Vida Ellison Gallery on the 7th floor. The view of downtown Denver from up there is spectacular! This truly was a beautiful, personal, emotional wedding celebration and I am so happy to have been the one to document it for them.

Cliff House wedding :: Dana + Sean

Another beautiful Cliff House at Pikes Peak wedding, and it has been a long time coming for these high school sweethearts! Since Dana and Sean are recent transplants from Chicago, most of their loved ones traveled all the way from the country’s heartland to be present for their wedding at the Cliff House. They were such a fun group (especially the wedding party!), and it is clear that they’ve all considered themselves family for years now. The vows just make it official.

I think Dana has very pretty, feminine taste, which was reflected in the wedding’s color scheme (pink and rose gold), floral design and all the little details. She really thought of everything. I loved her summery, lacy dress, too. It was just lovely and it suited her perfectly.

I always enjoy a Cliff House at Pikes Peak wedding, and this was one of the prettiest I have done there. What a great day! Warmest congratulations Sean and Dana, I had a blast hanging out with you and documenting your happy, laid back nuptials!

A Garden of the Gods Club wedding album

Garden of the Gods Club wedding album

I delivered this beautiful, heirloom Garden of the Gods Club wedding album to Ross and Alicia a week or two ago and it was so hard to let it go! I love this album, it’s perfect!

Alicia and Ross had a morning celebration at the Garden of the Gods Club. There is always such an amazing view there, any time of day. Just spectacular. We started the day shrouded in chill and fog, and ended it with sunshine. Typical Colorado Springs weather! We captured so many beautiful, fun and emotional moments, Ross and Alicia ended up with a 20 spread album with tons of meaningful images. Here are a few pictures of their new family heirloom. It’s a beautiful book and I know it will be a treasure to them as they grow old together.
