Only in Colorado do you get sunshine, rain, lighting, thunder and a double rainbow all in 1 hour! Kathryn and Dan's wedding was very sentimental. They got married in a church her father was the architect for. It was his labor of love and the love of his life, his daughter, got married there. The thunder during the cocktail hour was so loud and threatening. A huge bolt of lightening stuck a tree that was close by. Within 15 minutes the storm blew through and brought the most out of sight double rainbow. Kathryn and Dan looked so happy and in love. I was honored to be a part of their day.

Here is their slideshow.

Scott & Sarah's Wedding

Scott and Sarah are good friends of Dzifa and mine. It was SO cool being able to photograph their wedding for them. Sarah is nothing shy of a model and Scott wasn't so bad himself. :-) They did their wedding in the round. I have done one other wedding this way and it is a pretty intimate way to have your ceremony. It was as if they were literally being embraced by everyone's love around them. Sarah and Scott, you two are a perfect match! Thanks for letting me help you celebrate your marriage.

Here is a sneak peak of their slideshow.

John & Lindsay's E-Session

Tiffany Looks Beautiful

Scott, Nora, & Katie

Scott, Nora and Katie are the all american family. I wanted to do a lifestyle family portrait for them. We had fun photographing them at their home and a nearby park. Katie's room has one of the coolest murals I have ever seen . Her parents found a wonderful artist that does any type of mural you can think of. They hired her to create a sea world escape.

The Love Doctor Got Married

When you mix two doctors with one wedding dress and a spectacular day you get Ben and Laura's wedding. They traveled from back east for a Colorado destination wedding at the Wildlife Experience. I think there was only one family at the wedding that was from Colorado. That means that 150+ guests flew in from all over the country to help them celebrate their love for each other. This was one group that loved to party. From the moment the Nacho Men lit up the dance floor the place was hopping. To see more of their photographs click here to view their slideshow.

Tori & Adam - So In Love

I loved working with Tori and Adam for their wedding. Their love was so innocent, inspirational and refreshing. They have a sense of adventure for love and life. When I watched them through my lens I could see the depth of their love. It was an honor to be there to witness their marriage. They had their wedding in Adam's parents backyard along with over 200 close family and friends. It felt like an english garden party. I couldn't thank their neighbors enough for letting us crash into their backyard for all of our photos. To see more photos from Tori and Adam's wedding click here to view the slideshow.

Lindsey & Tony Wlaking Down The Aisle At The Sanctuary

Lindsey and Tony's wedding had every ingredient of romance. It was a privilage to get to work with them and become friends at the same time. They came to The Sanctuary for a Colorado destination wedding. They live in Chicago where Tony just became a doctor. Their wedding was so elegant and classy. I think my favorite moment of the day was when they saw each other for the first time. Tony just beamed from ear to ear when he saw Lindsey. He had her spin around and show off her dress. It was so adorable. I know a lot of couples have mixed emotions on seeing each other befor the cermony. I am usually in favor of it. It creates such a dramatic and emotional moment that is all to themselves. Lindsey and Tony's moment at first sight was no different. If you want to see more photographs view their slideshow here.

Favorite Images from Workshop

It is possible that June was the busiest month I have had in the past two years. Between weddings, portraits, events, workshops, PUG meetings and trying to have a little bit of a social life I was on the go for thirty days straight. I woke up this morning and couldn't believe July has already arrived.

Today is July first and Dzifa and I have given up on trying to cool down our house at night with all of our fans. So we had A/C installed. Yipee! We have been putting it off and couldn't resist any longer. It's crazy to think when our house was built 24 years ago it wasn't a necessity to have A/C because a hot day in the middle of August was a high of 85. Now by the end of May most of our days are in the high 80's and low 90's. Tonight I will be enjoying a good night of sleep in my cooled down house.

I just attended a workshop with David Beckstead. He is a world renowned photographer that came to Denver to put on a workshop. I loved shooting with some of my friends in the photography industry. The models we worked with were willing to go the extra mile for us. Here are some of my favorite images.
