Visually, this wedding looks a bit different from our usual snowcapped mountain backdrops. Moment wise, it doesn’t get much better. Andrew & Morgan invited us out west for their Gateway Canyons Resort Wedding on one of the best weekends of the year. The cottonwood trees were prime fall color making, accentuating the blue sky and […]

Mike & Dana’s Summer Wedding at Allred’s in Telluride

Nov
13th

It’s not the five hour drive to Telluride that makes it feel like a destination wedding, but more so the fact that it feels like no place on earth. Sorry Vail, but Telluride deserves this slogan. It really is one of the most beautiful locations in Colorado, making the list of top two wedding towns […]

Every so often we photograph something that fills up our cup, but its never because of a location, decor or budget.

It’s not often that we get down to the front range to photograph a wedding, but Claire’s mom, also a photographer, found our work and insisted that we document her daughters wedding.

Arthur & Katie’s Spring Wedding at The Broadmoor

Jul
13th

We love it when past wedding guests inquire with us to shoot their wedding, so when Arthur & Katie’s email arrived in our inbox, we were elated. Then 2020 happened and things got all wonky, but they wanted to wait it out and have the party they originally envisioned. Instead of having it at the […]

Andrew & Lauren’s Colorful Fall Wedding at Piney

Feb
10th

We didn’t have a single wedding in 2020 that felt normal, with reason, but Andrew & Lauren’s Colorful Fall Wedding at Piney came the closest. By the end of September, the new normal started to begin to feel like the old normal. We grew to accept that packed dancefloors weren’t a thing moving forward and […]

When Mike & Dana told us they would be in Telluride over the New Year, we jumped at the opportunity to photograph their engagement session in this winter wonderland. Telluride, nestled deep in the expansive San Juan mountain range, feels so secluded and expansive at the same time. It is like nothing else in Colorado… […]

As our community takes a turn for a more extensive lockdown today, it seemed right to share some photos from this spring during our first COVID stay-at-home order.

Ryan & Kira’s Crested Butte Elopement

Nov
10th

Covid forced Ryan & Kira to move their Buena Vista Wedding over Cottonwood Pass to one of our favorite mountain towns, Crested Butte. Getting married on a ski run in between two large groves of aspen trees at peak color isn’t all that bad. Their Crested Butte Elopement was nothing short of perfect. We started […]

Dan & Jordan’s Breckenridge Sunrise Fall Engagement

Oct
28th

With the forecast of a winter storm looming for Dan & Jordan’s engagement, we moved their evening session to a sunrise one to take advantage of the fall color before the wind took its course. So, don’t let this warm light fool you… it was a cold session with high speed winds. In the end […]
