Christine & Stephen’s Vail Golf Club Wedding

Christine & Stephen’s Vail Golf Club Wedding

Christine and Stephen’s Vail Golf Club wedding was full of energy all day long and that’s all you can ask for as a photojournalist. When we walked into the room, Christine greeted Travis and I with her southern draw that folks from Texas are known for and gave us a huge hug. They live in Texas and had only chatted via Skype so that set the mood for the entire day. Their families welcomed us with open arms and were wonderful all day. As evident from Travis’ images, Stephen and his groomsmen were having a blast just down the hall at The Lodge at Vail. As the ladies helped Christine slip into her dress, the guys passed around a bottle of Maker’s before sending them…

Laura & Mack’s Wedding in Keystone

Laura & Mack’s Wedding in Keystone

Laura and Mack spend so much of their time in the mountains that it was only fitting that they have a Warren Station wedding in Keystone. Really, it was their second wedding because Mack’s mom threw them quite the ceremony in Singapore a few weeks ago. Just before they left for that trip I photographed their Shrine Pass engagement session. In my short time together with them, I can tell that they have a ton of fun together in everything that they do. Travis was one again in town to photograph the wedding with me. Both Laura and Mack got ready near the resort before we ventured down the street and through the trees to the river for their first look on their private property….

Heather & Matt’s Wedding at TenMile Station

Heather & Matt’s Wedding at TenMile Station

Heather and Matt’s wedding at TenMile Station in Breckenridge was as ideal of a Colorado celebration as you can get. I love shooting in the mountains and TenMile is definitely one of my favorite venues. As is often the case, Travis was in town to shoot this wedding with me. We both started the day at One Ski Hill Place at the base of Breckenridge Ski Resort’s Peak 8. The ladies had an enormous suite overlooking the mountain and while I spent time with them, Travis was with Matt and the guys getting ready and having a beer in The Living Room. Since there was an obstacle race going on the day of their wedding we opted to do first look at nearby. Matt and Heather…

Summer Barn Wedding at Deer Creek Valley Ranch | Paige & Adam

Summer Barn Wedding at Deer Creek Valley Ranch | Paige & Adam

Paige and Adam’s families traveled out from the east coast for their summer barn wedding at Deer Creek Valley Ranch in the mountains near Bailey. Almost everyone who attended the wedding was from out of state so it was a treat for them to experience what the centennial state has to offer. You might remember seeing Adam and Paige’s fall colors Golden Gate Canyon State Park engagement photos last year. I started the morning with the ladies at Evolution Salon while Travis documented Adam and the guys getting ready at the barn. Throughout the entire day there was a variety of emotions and moments that stood out from their day. Paige’s niece Margo was determined to steal the show while the groomsmen made sure that the party…

Ravisloe Country Club Wedding | Katie & Joel

Ravisloe Country Club Wedding | Katie & Joel

As a photojournalist, it’s incredibly rewarding when another journalist asks you to document their special day. Katie is a damn good reporter from outside of Chicago and Joel is an eye surgeon who loves Alabama football. I knew that we would get along when they were interested in sharing some amazing beers out of my cellar the first time we met. I travel all the time for weddings, especially in Chicagoland, so I was excited that I was able to capture their Ravisloe Country Club wedding. Since they live in Colorado I was able to shoot their spring engagement session in downtown Denver. In all of my years doing weddings, Katie is one of the top two most organized brides that I’ve ever worked with….

Coza & Joel’s Outdoor Art Gallery Wedding in Denver

Coza & Joel’s Outdoor Art Gallery Wedding in Denver

It was amazing being part of Coza and Joel’s Space Gallery wedding. I was lucky enough to walk across the street from my loft to Fluff Bar where the ladies were doing hair and makeup. It’s refreshing to start a wedding day so close to home. At the same time, Anya was with the guys as they got ready and headed to The Art hotel bar for a few drinks. I love looking back on these images over and over because the laughter and emotion from the start of the day was fantastic. First look couldn’t come soon enough and when it did both Coza and Joel seemed to really take it all in. The Arts District on Santa Fe is home to an eclectic…

TenMile Station Wedding in Breckenridge | Sharon & Nick

TenMile Station Wedding in Breckenridge | Sharon & Nick

I can confidently say that Sharon and Nick’s TenMile Station wedding in Breckenridge was one of my favorites of all time. We were welcomed with open arms from the moment we walked in the door by each of their families and that feeling didn’t change the entire day. I had a feeling that it was going to be a spectacular day because I had a blast shooting their engagement photos in Golden Gate Canyon State Park earlier in the week. TenMile Station is one of the best mountain wedding venues in Colorado thanks to spectacular views, amazing service and its proximity to the charming town of Breckenridge. Located on Peak 9 of the Breckenridge Ski Resort, the ceremony site looks out towards Boreas Pass and the…

Crooked Willow Farms Wedding | Danielle & Jordan

Crooked Willow Farms Wedding | Danielle & Jordan

Danielle and Jordan’s Crooked Willow Farms wedding in Larkspur was full of the rustic charm that you would expect from a gorgeous Colorado barn venue. The cold and rainy weather forced us inside for most of the day and while every wedding has it’s challenges and I was throughly impressed at how Danielle, Jordan and their families didn’t let anything stop them from going on with the show. Danielle looked absolutely gorgeous and was enthusiastic throughout the day. Jordan was calm and collected but lit up when he saw Danielle for their first look. Their LoDo engagement session was a stunner so I wasn’t surprised that they brought the same energy to their wedding day. After witnessing their incredible vows in person it’s clear that they bring out the absolute…

Room 1520 Wedding | Chicago

Room 1520 Wedding | Chicago

I was recently in the windy city to help my friend and Chicago Wedding Photographer Travis Haughton document C and O’s Room 1520 wedding just west of Downtown. It’s definitely one of my favorite venues in Chicago like Bridgeport Art Center. I started the day with the guys at the Raffaello Hotel before we headed up to the fantastic rooftop for their first look. C looked absolutely stunning in what was possibly my favorite dress of the year and O had a huge smile on his face when he saw her. After a few portraits around town we dodged the rain and headed west for their Room 1520 wedding ceremony. After they exchanged vows and walked down the aisle hand-in-hand I ventured up to the rooftop to scope things…

Cheesman Park Wedding | Sara & Ryan

Cheesman Park Wedding | Sara & Ryan

Last weekend I didn’t have to travel far for Sara and Ryan’s Cheesman Park wedding. It was refreshing to walk over to the Westin where the ladies got ready while Travis drove over to their condo to start with the guys. Sara was mostly done with hair and makeup when I arrived so she was able to relax while her family got ready. The weather was a touch chilly but there wasn’t a cloud in the sky by the time the ceremony started under the pavilion at Cheesman Park. They opted not to see each other before the ceremony so there was a great moment when Sara walked down the aisle with her father. The sun poured in over the nuptials as both Ryan and Sarah…
