Taking a beak to be a mother.

admin — Tue, 16 Jul 2013 22:57:39 +0000

In May of 2013 my husband and I were blessed with a beautiful little girl. She is such a blessing to our lives. I have had to make many decisions now as a mother and can without regret say that I am thrilled to embark on the adventure of motherhood. I will no longer be serving clients in the wedding industry. I do truly love helping brides plan their weddings, design flowers and shoot photography. I feel it is more important to be with my daughter and experience the moments in her life that will only happen once, and cherish every second I have with her. As you have found my site, I don’t want to leave you without a list of a few amazing professionals that I would turn to personally for my floral, planning and photography needs. I wish all of you well with your weddings and remember cherish the moment’s, capture them as they all happen so very fast.

April Showers…Bring May Flowers

admin — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 03:16:49 +0000

This Easter season was special. My parents own www.willowcreekfloral.com and www.willowcreekcrossings.com in Ridgway, CO. My mother and I tend to get lost in shop talk when we are in the flower shop. I found an Easter bonnet sitting on a chair and quickly grabbed little Mali. She looks like the mad hatter. May all of you take the time to remember your family and loved ones, may you keep them in your heart always. Time is so short and valuable.

Beaver Creek Engagement Session – Kristin & James

admin — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 03:24:23 +0000

A story of love these two do tell. You can see it in their eyes, their touch, and most of all how they treat one another. The level of respect and honor they carry for each other is powerful. We spent a cold chilly day walking around Beaver Creek. I enjoyed learning of their romance and plans for their fall wedding. If you believe in a Cinderella story then we have the makings of Happily Ever After right here. Enjoy. I can’t wait for your wedding.

Wedding Photography – Manor House, Littleton Colorado

admin — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 03:54:03 +0000

We arrived at the Manor house in Littleton, Colorado around noon on the wedding day of Julia and Sean. Julia was all glowing as she arrived, and was escorted by her bridesmaids and mother. Sean arrived a bit later with his grooms men, and were greeted with Scott for a few fun shots of the boys. We rushed to get Julia’s father dressed as Julia and Sean were excited to meet for the first time that day. Its so exciting, actually either way you look at it, meet before the ceremony, or first glance at the ceremony both provide the same emotion. We loved that Julia and Sean had agreed to not Kiss until that first Kiss as husband and wife on the wedding day. We enjoyed getting to know their family and friends from both near and far. I think the fathers distance traveled was from Germany a good friend of the grooms family. Some of our favorite moments captured were when Julia and Sean stepped away to take a break with each other, away from the crowd, watching the sun set. Simply romantic. Note to couples…..take a few moments out of your wedding day for just the two of you. It goes so fast, and it feels like you simply blink and the day is over. Cherish the love of this day forever. Much love to both Julia and Sean……

Proud Parents to Be….Maroon Bells

admin — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 04:07:28 +0000

Its always exciting to keep in touch with past Brides and Grooms. We recently hooked up with Ashley & Trent to celebrate another magical milestone in their lives. In the upcoming weeks they will be proud parents of Baby “O”. Its such a joy to celebrate the new addition to a family. Congratulations, and we can’t wait to meet her.

The best part about these photos is seeing the continued love Ashley & Trent share, and their ultimate joy about the new arrivall. Look at how happy Trent is, he is going to be one amazing father. Ashley is an angel and who wouldn’t want her as a mother.

Destination Wedding Photographers – Breckenridge Engagement

admin — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 03:33:20 +0000

Just before the clouds and rain set in we met up with Katie & Jeff in their hometown of Breckenridge. They both had ideas as to what they wanted for their engagement session, what we didn’t expect was the amount of fun that played into the afternoon. This couple has amazing chemistry, in so many of the photos the tenderness and love were so evident, while in others their true fun, outgoing, and spontaneous personalities came out. We had the idea of Katie jumping into the mine car, Jeff on the other hand, orchestrated the motion. Looking forward to the wedding in August. Tip for couples, have fun on with your engagement session, show who you are don’t be afraid…..the results will lead to images like these.

Best dog ever….Cheers Balto!

Can you say love and tenderness…..?

Destination Wedding Photographers…Maroon Bells Bridal Shoot

admin — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 17:25:17 +0000

Ladies if you haven’t thought about a bridal session prior to the wedding, then take a moment and ponder it. What a fun way to take photos in your wedding dress when you have time to relax, smile, breath and don’t feel any of the wedding day pressure. The best part is getting to put your dress on again, and who doesn’t want to wear their wedding dress a few more times. We spent an afternoon with Erin at the Maroon bells, taking breathtaking photos of her in her wedding dress. Our original scheduled shoot was during a termendous three day rain storm, our rescheduled day was perfect as the peaks of the mountains where freshly covered with snow. Thank you for spending an afternoon with us, and more importantly trusting our instincts and walking out on that log bridge…..Enjoy!

admin — Tue, 18 May 2010 03:55:21 +0000

Wow! Sometimes the photo’s speak louder than words. Simply put, we had a BLAST with Gabi and Brian and can’t wait until we get to see them again at their wedding in June. But for now, the images are going to do the talking.

The next few were taken near the art museum.

So many special moments captured, this one is a favorite.

Additional images found below. Can’t wait for the wedding, Gabi is going to be a beautiful bride, and Brian a handsome groom.

Costa Rica Bride……

admin — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 18:31:45 +0000

A few months ago I had the opportunity to shoot a wedding in Costa Rica. Little did I know that the bride and I would become great friends. A few days before the wedding we ventured out at sunset to take a few shots of her pre wedding, for the Groom. The Groom celebrated his birthday this past weekend, and now that he has had the chance to see the images, I must share a few of my favorites with you. Please leave a comment if you like them. Its always fun to push your creative style.

During the course of the wedding week, I was also able to spend some time withe the Brides girls. Each morning we would walk the beach looking for sea shells. What little girl doesn’t enjoy this activity. I had so much fun, and they both are so smart, funny, and beautiful. The best experience was when we picked up a few shells that were beautiful and looked empty, little to our surprise about 10 minutes later hermit crabs started crawling out. The shells flew in the air and I am sure high pitched squeals could be heard. However the best part was simply walking down the beach with them as seen here.

Erin & Seth Vail Engagement….First Look

admin — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 01:58:31 +0000

Erin and Seth will be married in Vail mid summer. We spent a Saturday afternoon with them and well……had a blast. There isn’t a way to describe how much fun we had with this couple. Their smiles and excitement never stopped. These are a few of the images that might show up in the paper as an engagement announcement. There are so many fantastic shots, it was hard to select just one. Take a look, leave a comment.
