Valerie and LaRell were married on a beautiful, golden, gusty afternoon at her uncle’s home. These two lovebirds met online in a Facebook group, believe it or not. And they fell in love over the phone, since it would be months before they would meet in person — LaRell lived in Oregon! This was an incredibly sweet wedding. You can see how in love they are, just by the way they look at each other. So adorable! Happy honeymoon, Valerie and LaRell!
I did this fun, 1950s retro styled wedding shoot last week in collaboration with the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum, Rhonda Nichols Floral Design, Sportique Scooters, and Bridal Elegance, a wedding boutique in Colorado Springs, with hair by Judy Marble and makeup by Rachel Barker. All of these gorgeous wedding gowns are available at Bridal Elegance right now! Many thanks to our lovely model Christina, JB at Sportique Scooters, and Haley at the Pioneers Museum. We created some fabulous images and had a great time!

Do you ever watch that show “Say Yes to the Dress”, where brides pick out the perfect gown for their big day? I have to admit that I think I’ve seen every episode! I had the chance to do some wedding dress “shopping” myself recently, as I’m planning on doing a 1950s styled bridal shoot this Friday at the historic Pioneers Museum and I needed some gowns! The wonderful Terry Ortega and her staff at Bridal Elegance, a wedding boutique in Colorado Springs, were so generous and helpful! I stopped in with my model, Christina, and they already had several dresses pulled for us. All of them were gorgeous, but we were able to narrow it down to these three. What do you think? I can’t wait for Friday!
