Oh what a beautiful wedding! Gentry & Dave got married at River Breaks Ranch in Amarillo and the day just couldn't have been more beautiful! It wasn't even very hot, for Texas... It was the perfect combination of warm sunshine, a strong breeze to make her dress billow like like satin wings and so much love you could have filled the ranch water troughs with it!
Congratulations!
I love weddings. I truly do. And nothing could be better than the feeling of being surrounded by a family completely immersed in the joy of the celebration. Natalie & Mike had the most amazing wedding at Gold Lake Mountain Resort and Spa. The day was perfectly beautiful, the mojitos flowed like water, and there was love in the air...
What a great party! Our sweet Heidi married Jason at Taharaa Mountain Lodge and wow did they have a great event. The resort was beautiful and even a little threatening rain couldn't keep this family from the party. Heidi & Jason were so adorable and so excited. I loved the way the whole day was a celebration of love and family. Part of their family tradition has always been a belly dancer and it was the most amazing way to start off the celebration.
Congratulations! and much joy now and always!

What an amazing day! Yes, it was hot, but it was almost hard to notice in the presence of this incredibly beautiful, joyful, loving family. Kelsey & Scott's details were amazing... pies that they love in lieu of cakes, super cute Rainbow Sandals on the bridal party, Kelsey's stunning dress from Anna Be, and of course her Sara Gabriel veil. But it was faith and love of family that eclipsed all else.
Kelsey & Scott's journey together starts with the most amazing grace. Jodie & I both felt so very fortunate to be there to photograph the next step in their journey together. Congratulations and much joy to you both. Now and always.
I don't think I have ever seen a more beautifully diverse, kid-filled wedding! Amy & Dan's day was just absolutely beautiful. Amy's youngest son even crashed out in their room at The Oxford Hotel while everyone was getting ready so he got his nap too. And Amy & Dan sneaking into their honeymoon suite are some of my favorite photos ever. They're so in love they're like little kids too!
Thanks so much for inviting me to be there to photograph! And congratulations!
On the most beautiful mountain day, Mary & Jon got married. I love this family! It was a full evening of laughter and tears at the lovely The Meadows at Marshdale. And don't get me started on Mary's gorgeous champagne gown...
Congratulations! And much joy to you both! Thank you so much for inviting us to be there to capture your day.
Kelly & John have been so much fun to get to know. I don't think I've ever known anyone so giddy about getting married. Even the planning didn't phase them. Their wedding at the University of Denver's Evans Memorial Chapel was the most wonderful, family and friend filled, a lot of laughter and few tears, beautiful afternoon...
Thank you so much for inviting me to be there to photograph your day!
Such a wonderful evening. Jen & Dave got married at Our Lady of Loretto Chapel in the most beautiful service. These flower girls captured my heart! Dave was such a romantic, writing Jen a note to be delivered before the ceremony. And Jen! She's stunning even just getting into the car. The terrace reception at Tamayo on Larimer Square was just beautiful... and highlighted by Jen & Dave's very spicy salsa!
Oh my goodness! What a blast! Tristin & John got married at the Lumber Baron and even a parade through downtown Denver couldn't keep their guest away. The ceremony was a tear-jerker and the dancing was something else. John's aunts even brought leis from Hawaii. And Tristin's smile... now that's a happy bride! She was just adorable. And the check out the getaway car...
I watched one of my favorite movies again this weekend and realized it’s my favorite, actually.
I cry every time I watch Love Actually just like I get a little bit teary at every wedding I photograph. I love every part of every love story in the movie and all the different flavors. Father and son, new loves, old loves, friends that you love more than you’ve ever learned to express.
As I was watching the very end, the part at the airport arrival lounge where everyone is so happy to be reunited, I realized it’s just like weddings. At a wedding, all you have to do is open your eyes and those same stories come leaping forward all around you. This is why I love photography – photographing people, photographing weddings. The loves of our lives take a thousand different forms and they’re just waiting to be captured.
The warmth of a memory and the photograph of a single second in time are the only ways I know to keep these moments forever.
