Brian and Leslie
Denver Art Museum
July 25, 2009
Leslie and Brian got married last weekend at the spectacular Denver Art Museum. The museum’s contemporary setting was a great choice for such a stylish and urban couple. You might remember Leslie and Brian from their engagement portraits in downtown Denver last month. Their wedding was just as chic and fashionable as they are, with a beautifully executed green and brown color scheme and lots of pretty details. My friend Tamera Goldsmith photographed their wedding with me. It’s always a blast to work with Tamera!
Congratulations, Leslie and Brian! I hope you are having a wonderful time in Spain!

Four years ago I stood in front of my friends and family and made the best promise of my life. I’ve always been happy with Mike, but marriage gets even better every year.
Today Mike surprised me with these beautiful orchids that look so perfect on our mantel, next to our wedding photos. Mike, thank you for all the little moments, big adventures, and constant love and support. Happy fourth anniversary to my wonderful husband. I love you so much!

My sister-in-law and nephews at the airport
I have so many photos and stories to post, and they are all jumping around out of order, but this one is a gem. Earlier this month I went to the airport with my parents to pick up my brother’s family. This was the moment that Robby saw my mother in the crowd, and yelled out “GRANDMA!” So sweet.

Eve in her christening gown
Round Hill, Virginia
July 19, 2009
While I was in Virginia last week, I was able to attend the baptism and first birthday party of my friend’s daughter. Eve’s mother, Heather, has been my close friend since high school. You might remember Eve from her baby portraits last year. She is now a year old, and toddling around. As you can see, she’s still totally adorable.

My niece, Kenna, age almost-6
Arlington, Virginia
July 19, 2009
I took a week and a half off to visit family. Last week I went to Dallas to visit my grandparents, aunts, uncle, and cousins. Now I’m in Virginia with my parents, where I’ve been able to spend time with my brother and his family. It’s so hard to live far away from my niece and nephews! They are the sweetest kids I could ever hope to know, and I’m really not looking forward to going back to Colorado and leaving them behind!

Keely and Adam
Crossroads Baptist Church and El Jebel Shrine
Denver, Colorado
July 11, 2009
Yesterday I was the second shooter for a wedding with my good friend Brad Walters. It was my first day shooting with my new Canon 5D Mark II camera, so I was excited to have a chance to try it out. This camera is known for its ability to perform beautifully at high ISO, which really suits my preference for natural light photography. The church and reception venue yesterday were both quite dark, so I photographed much of the day at ISO 4000. The results are excellent, and I’m really happy with my new camera.
One of my favorite things about second shooting is the freedom to take lots of pictures of the children at weddings. When I’m the primary shooter, I don’t have much time to play with the kiddos, but yesterday I made sure to take lots of pictures of the many cuties in attendance.
Thanks, Brad, for asking me to shoot with you!

Summertime is a great time for the color green! I’ve noticed that lots of people have been coming to my website lately while searching for inspiration for green color themes, so I thought I’d do a Wedding Ideas post all about this popular color. Here are ideas for using the color green in bouquets, dresses, and decorations.

Mike and me
Silverton, Colorado
July 5, 2009
Mike, Ally, and I took a wonderful road trip for the Fourth of July weekend. We spent two nights in Durango, and also visited the Great Sand Dunes National Park, Black Canyon National Park, and many great spots along the way. We hiked, ate great food, listened to concerts in the street, and watched fireworks over the river in Durango.
I took lots of photos, some with my Canon G10, and some with my Canon 5D. Mostly we just relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of western Colorado. It’s truly beautiful out there.
