60 degrees in January on a Friday gave us a chance to hike into the mountains behind Boulder for an incredible engagement session with Phil and Katie. Weather in Boulder is ever changing, especially in the winter. The light was beautiful at the end of the day and we enjoyed hanging out in the sun in one of the most beautiful places on earth.
These kids are so busy and curious! Their attention changes so quickly you have to be ready to grab the shot or it’s gone. They had a very colorful Chinese dragon for the Chinese New Year that the kids loved.
After meeting Rachel and Dave and Rachel’s parents at the engagement session, we had a wonderful relationship that made us feel so welcomed and honored to be at their wedding . The other wedding vendors were spectacular. Heather from Calluna Events was great to work with. She kept us informed so we were one step ahead and ready for the next event of the day. Shamane’s Bakeshoppe made a vegan cake that was actually good. The wedding flowers from Sturtz and Copeland were beautiful. I now have another top favorite band in Boulder – Groove Nation. This couple was deeply in love and I hope the wedding photos captured this.
When my friend Julie asked me to do a photo shoot for the Wow Childrens museum‘s marketing materials in Lafayette I was very excited. It was amazing watching and photographing these children play, interact and learn at the Wow Museum.
Amber and Dave’s wedding began with them seeing each other before the ceremony at a park across the street from the ceremony site where they got engaged. You won’t see any ceremony pics since it was a quaker ceremony and we were not allowed to photograph it. There were some really magical moments at this wedding. Dave and Amber enjoy just being alone together and it shows in their photos. We were in the flowers at Pastures of Plenty farm in Longmont, Colorado and the light after the rain storm was as beautiful as it gets. Also, this was the first time I had set up a photo booth and people loved it! Thanks to Amber’s maid of honor who brought the fun props! Since Big Bang Catering grows a lot of the food it uses right there at the farm, it was outstanding! The day ended with some crazy hora dancing and beautiful bon fire under the stars.
