Alex and Natalie’s engagement was one of those rare instances when planning, passion and a little bit of luck come together to create something truly magical.   Alex reached out to me the Monday before the Chicago couple landed in Oregon for their annual Bend Brew Fest trip with grand ideas of surprising his girlfriend […]

It’s been a very busy year, though I haven’t updated my photography site in quite some time.   I decided to take some ‘me’ time from the social media game, and resist that ever-increasing urge to engage in the race-to-the-blog that I found myself in for so many years.  With that said, I have some amazing […]

There’s no denying it:  you just know by the way she glows when you’re around, by the way her smile lights up the sky when you look into her eyes. Just like the first time your eyes met, and you just knew, that she is the one.    

Justin kicked cancer’s @ss to be able to walk this beautiful lady down the aisle.  Now THAT is hardcore.  So I thought it fitting that we take their engagement photos in the extreme and wildly beautiful terrain of Rocky Mountain National Park.  The two high school sweethearts flew into Denver from their hometown of Omaha, […]

Just got back from an engagement shoot with my two new muses — Maura & Andrew — and had to share some of these gorgeous photos of this Boulder, Colorado couple that will be getting married in a few weeks time.  

I feel like i’ve started a new trend when I encouraged Shannon & Tim to bring along their furry friends for their engagement shoot.  I ran an ad a few months ago featuring a very specific photo from Shannon and Tim’s engagement shoot–one that featured both the couple and their dogs. Charlie and Debbie came […]

They say those that play together, stay together.  Tim and Shannon are the quintessential Colorado couple:  happiest when they’re together in the mountains; lovers of powder days and mountain adventures with their dogs.  Shannon and Tim’s story is an interesting one that makes me laugh out loud every time I read it!  So I’ll quote […]

Last year, I was out of town photographing a wedding when the Aspens peaked; So this year I was determined not to miss what is arguably one of the most  beautiful times of the year in the Rocky Mountains.  It’s amazing how much luck and timing played in getting these photos.  Literally, up until the […]

You gotta love Colorado Natives:  “It’s so warm out!” exclaimed Crystal, donning a little black dress and heels on a sunny 48F day in Denver, Colorado.  I was a little surprised when Crystal showed me photos of her outfit choices a few days before their engagement shoot in Denver, and her selections included outfits typically […]

This is going to be one of those posts where I post an ungodly amount of engagement photos and then, as a photographer, I scold myself for not doing a tighter edit and only showing the best of the best.  But you know what:  that doesn’t apply in this case—because ALL of these photos kick […]
