Lisa & Tony- Denver Bontanic Gardens & Wellshire Inn Wedding

Lisa & Tony had a beautiful wedding this past summer with their ceremony at the Denver Botanic Gardens, and the reception at the Wellshire Inn. It was an amazingly beautiful and sunny day in Denver and everything turned out so wonderfully.
The guys started the day out with a round of golf at the Wellshire Golf Course. I met up with them there and took a few pictures. It was quickly obvious that my presence made them super nervous! We laughed and I promised that hacked shots wouldn't be visible in pictures, so not to worry. (sorry, boys! haha)So after a couple holes, I left them to their own demise so I would no longer be the excuse for a mulligan. ;)


One of the fun surprises of the day came right away. I met the girls at the fabulous Bang Salon When I walked in to find Lisa, I realized that the make-up artist working on the girls looked oddly familiar. And then I realized... it was Monica! Monica and I went to High School together and hadn't seen each other in almost 10 years! haha! It was really great to see her and she's also amazing. She did a fabulous job with the ladies and I'd recommend Bang and Monica to any of my brides looking for a stylist.


I was lucky enough to have Dusty of Volkel Image along with me again for this wedding as my 2nd shooter. He's such a great photographer and we always have a fun time together, so of course, I was super excited to have him. While I was hanging with the girls, Dusty went over with the guys to take this fun shot below. The ceremony location was also pretty hard to move around in, so I was glad to have Dusty in such a great position for the ceremony. He took the ceremony shot below as well.


I may have been trapped up in the front for the ceremony, but it made for a good view! :)


I love when the dance floor gets going! And these guys all knew how to party! :)


To Lisa & Tony: Thank you so much for being so willing to try anything and go anywhere! You didn't even let the dark stop us from taking pictures! I think we could've played half the night with you guys if they hadn't have been asking us to get out of there! We had so much fun! haha. Thanks again for being so wonderful and fun! Dusty and I wish you many years of happiness together.

Kristin & Bill's Wedding- Mt Vernon Country Club, Colorado

Kristin & Bill had a beautiful wedding at the Mt. Vernon Country Club this past summer. Kristin picked the perfect gown and she looked absolutely stunning! She also had an amazing bouquet made by her friend Kristen, which was made out of feathers and I believe paper flowers. It was so unique and pretty and I hope that I see more like this!


Their cake was definitely fun. Kristin and Bill actually met working on power transformers like these, so they decided to incorporate it into the wedding! We would have actually taken photos with some of these power lines nearby, but it was really foggy. So instead we decided to go out and take advantage of the fog before it got completely dark. Congratulations to you both! Thank you so much for letting me be part of your special day!

Jane & Scott - Eureka Lodge, Silverton, CO Wedding

Well, I have been a complete slacker in my blogging. And that may be the understatement of the century! ha! I'm working with a fabulous designer on a new custom blog, so hopefully that will change things a bit. But until it's ready I thought I'd post some of the things I've been shooting that never got blogged! (which is a lot of things by the way- haha)

Jane & Scott were married this past summer at the beautiful Eureka Lodge just a few miles outside of Silverton, CO. It is an amazing location to shoot at, and as you can see by the images below, there is absolutely no lack in amazing scenery there. We've been to the lodge a few times now, and it never stops taking my breath away. It has got to be the ultimate "Colorado" wedding site.

Jane was a guest at Ian & Amy's wedding that I photographed at the lodge last year. Jane very sweetly approached me about photography for her own wedding right there on the dance floor. And, that night, said she had completely fallen in love with the lodge. She'd decided she was going to look into have her own wedding there the next year! Well... it all came to be!

It was an absolute pleasure sharing in this special weekend with Jane & Scott and their families. I hope you two are doing well!

Senior Rockstar Tour *** IMAGES!***

Well, a while back on the blog I announced an awesome project that I've gotten to be a part of, The Senior Rockstar Tour. No, I'm not talking about senior citizens! :) The Tour is all about High School Seniors and creating the ultimate senior portrait experience.

Now that we have 2 tours behind us, I can safely say that this really is the ultimate experience. I wish i could have done something like this for my senior photos!

I wanted to post some images from the first tour to give everyone an idea of what our day was like and what kind of images we produced. I'm just going through the stuff from the second tour so I'll have those up later. It's sort of hard to give you the whole picture because as just one of the 5 participating studios, I only have my images to show here. But these seniors have galleries of about 100+ amazing & different images to choose from. I just think it's great that we can all get together and provide such an awesome day for these kids and do something that no one has done before. Even better is the students who went on the tour have given us some amazing feedback! We've posted a bunch of their messages in a special gallery on the SRST website, along with some images from each of the photographers. I'll tell you what... it is an amazing feeling when a customer gives you positive feedback like this. Thanks so much to the kids for being our fabulous guinea pigs! :) Check out what they had to say!

We are taking a waiting list for a 3rd date this fall. If we get enough interested students, we will try to set up a 3rd date and go out one more time this year. If you're interested shoot us a message through the contact form on the website. If not... we will definitely be doing this again next summer, so stay tuned!
