Janet and Phil's Wedding

By now everyone knows how much I love (LOVE) weddings - and I think every wedding I have done is the best wedding I have been to - with the exception of everyother wedding I've been to. But sometimes I get blind sided by a wedding that I think will be simple and sweet. This was one of those weddings! I expected a very low key, simple affair - really that's what they told me it would be. Instead, it was a full out party with LOTS of dancing, affection flying all over the place and smiles everywhere you looked. I really do LOVE weddings!

Janet and Phil have been together for 10 years and obviously have enjoyed each other so thoroughly and continue to enjoy each other so much it's contagious! I had such a good time, I forgot to leave at my scheduled time.We did some formals ahead of time and Janet cracked me up! I asked her if she minded sitting on a rock and she said "This one?" Before I could respond, she was stretched out on the rock and smiling. It was great!







Forrest Whitman is a wonderful Reverend! I have done a couple of weddings with him and I am always surprised at how well he connects with the couple and the guests. He truly is a wonderful human being and I hope I get to do more weddings with him in the future.











There were so many wonderful stories about Janet and Phil and all their exploits, but one about what a wonderful father Phil is stuck with me - but first, I have to say, I have lived in Colorado my whole life and I have never once seen a bear in the wild. Phil's son had come to Colorado to go to school and he not only saw a bear, he hit one with his car... Quite amazing. Phil came to his rescue, fixed his car and sadly had to "take care" of the bear too.




Congratulations to Janet and Phil!

I'm thrilled to see some of Phil and my wedding photos! It was truly a day of joy and celebration. The photos let me relive the wedding day--and see moments and smiles I was to busy to see on my actual wedding day!

Happily married, Janet

Tanner's Senior Pictures, Boulder

This young man! He is fantastic! I loved that he knew what he wanted and we were able to find some marvelous spots!  Look at those colors!  They were so amazing!   I did Tanner's  sisters senior pictures  a few years ago and these two are just wonderful kids!  I really love working with their family!  They are just wonderful people! I love this one! I just love this one of these two! We were done and on the way back to the car when I saw the sky and I was I like we have to do more!  I ran to my car, got a light and we did a few more pictures! I love this one! I absolutely love this shirt!  It is so awesome!

Cecilia, Andrew and their adorable children. Oh and a few alpacas. Franktown, Co

Photographing with alpacas has been sooooo much fun! They are just adorable, sweet and have the cutest faces! And this family made it so much more enjoyable! These kids are downright adorable! And full of such personality - I was in love!   These kids!  Their reactions to the alpacas were just adorable!  There's a video on instagram about it too, I encourage you to go check it out!  So cute! Those sweaters!  They were so cute!  Hopefully they were warm because it was cold that day!  And out in the field with all the snow was so much cooler!  But those kids were amazing leaving their jackets off while we took pictures!  I personally would have frozen and just fallen over without my jacket! I love LOVE this light!  If the kids hadn't been warmly bundled in a wagon, I would have thrown them in to the image too, but to make them get out in the cold was a little cruel.   For more information on High School Seniors, Portraits and Weddings...

Tim and Rachel, Hudson Gardens

Tim and Rachael come highly recommended from the people who them to me. I always love these cross connections to people and then I get to see them through their friends eyes. I have always adored the people who gave Tim the recommendation and then hearing him and his kids talk about them made me more fond of them. Photography really is a special gift to everyone, including the photographer! Tim and Rachel showed up a little early to do just their pictures and it was a good they did!  By the time the grandkids arrived, there was craziness all around!  I love how these two care about each other!  It was so apparent in how they were with each other and that just makes me so happy! Uhhhhhh.... trying to get 2 cousins who adore each other in movement is not an easy thing to get them to sit!  From the beginning to the end of attempting to capture these 3 together, it was 3 minutes and that included some rearranging.  For adults that's fast, but for toddlers that's an ...
