Sara & Matt were married on a beautiful, unusually warm day in January.  They are both just the sweetest, and it was an absolute pleasure to meet their family and friends - that's becoming one of my favorite parts of this job!Ceremony: Rocky Mountain Christian Church Niwot, CO

Reception: Hotel Boulderado Boulder, CO

Hair/ Makeup : Steele the Spotlight

Flowers: Brighter Day Floral

I promise you, neither of these shots were set up or had anything to do with me.

I just love it when everyone spontaneously levitates.

Thank you, thank you, Sara & Matt, for such a fantastic wedding day experience!  Congratulations to you both :)

brittany & matt (cherry creek engagement session)

Brittany & Matt are two of the kindest, sweetest, funnest people around, and I'm so excited for their wedding at the Donovan Pavilion in Vail next year!  We shot their engagement session in Cherry Creek on a gorgeous fall afternoon with  golden light that seriously couldn't have been more perfect.  We actually took a not-so-short wine drinking and soaking in the scenery break in the middle of the session, and just hung out together and drank wine in the middle of a field by a beautiful lake... not bad, not bad at all :)  Thank you guys so much for such a great session, and I can't wait for the wedding!

ARE YOU FOR SERIOUS WITH THIS GORGEOUS LIGHT.

Wow, gosh, I just adore these two so so much.  I can't help it.  First, there was this awesome engagement session... next, their amazing wedding at Casa de Luz near Estes Park!  What a mellow, fun, lovely day.  One of my favorite parts about this job is getting to meet so many amazing people - not just my clients, but their friends and family, too!  And Sarah & Justin have so many stellar people in their lives.  Love this day! 

Aquamarine is also my birthstone, so I happen to be a little partial to Sarah's gorgeous ring :)

This cradle was a gift from Sarah's grandfather:

Crying or seriously cracking up?  You can decide :)

And, this was the moment when one of the little ones grabbed the tablecloth and started pulling... almost dooming the cake.

Haha... oops.

Justin earned awesomeness points by turning and force-feeding wedding cake to his friends:

I. LOVE. THIS.

Oh yeah, did I mention this was the day of the super moon?

Eesh.  What a fantastic day.  Hope you guys are loving Chile!

zak & melissa (buena vista wedding photographer)

Zak & Melissa are such fun, easygoing, joyful people.  This day at Mt. Princeton Hot Springs was so mellow, and I love mellow weddings!  You might remember them from their nerdy engagement session last year - they met in the engineering department of the School of Mines.  So, fittingly, they got married at 3:14 pm - or, as I called it, pi o'clock.  Melissa wore her grandmother's veil, which just made her look like a Renaissance painting all day.  I couldn't stop shooting - there was too much gorgeousness.  Congratulations to you both, and thanks for including me in your amazing, amazing day!

I LOVE it when couples decide to do a First Look!  This moment was so special.  Plus, we got plenty of extra time for pictures!

We took the wedding party up to the historic ghost town of St. Elmo for some fun shots:

Absolute beauty!!

Who else is cool enough to launch the bouquet and garter off of a homemade catapult??!!

Zak & Lis - I just adore you guys.  I can't thank you enough for the privilege of being your photographer.  Best wishes to you both!
