Roxann and Steve

Roxann and Steve are getting married in less than a month at the Denver Aquarium - how cool of a location is that? We met up yesterday evening to do their engagement shots. We went to Washington Park, and it was just perfect for photographs. Here are a few of my favorites:

Thanks, guys! I'm really looking forward to your wedding!

For those of you who look in on this blog every now and then, check back often this month - I have a bunch of really exciting shoots coming up this month. I've been busier than ever, and love it! This is really a dream job - those of you who've given me the honor of photographing you, thank you so much!

Casie and Craig

I met up with Casie and Craig yesterday at the beautiful Denver Botanic Gardens to take their engagement photos. It was nice and slow on a Tuesday evening, and we had lots of time to look around and get some great shots. These are a few of the ones I like best so far.

I think Casie positively glows here.
The sun happenned to burst through right as I was taking it. I like the rays of light in this one. Casie kept telling Craig he was photogenic; he kept denying it. Sorry Craig - she wins!

If you haven't been to the Botanic Gardens before, you must go. Here's the Japanese garden area - so peaceful.

Thanks, guys! I'm really looking forward to your wedding!

Colleen and Andy

I met up with Colleen and Andy on Wednesday to do their engagement session. We started at the Platte River Park in Littleton. I lived in the South Metro area for years, and somehow just discovered this gorgeous nature reserve.

Despite being a little nervous about having their pictures taken, they did fabulously. It helps to be so photogenic, too.

We stopped at this great open space area on Jackass Hill Road. I've been driving past this area for years, and everytime I see this space at sunset I think about what a great setting it would be for photos. I was so excited when Colleen mentioned wanting to do their shoot there!



Congratulations Andy and Colleen - I'm really looking forward to the wedding!

J. and P. are getting married!

J. and P. and I got together Saturday afternoon for their engagement session. We met up at Addenbrooke park in Lakewood, right by the church where they'll be holding their ceremony. While we were getting some great pictures of these two, we scouted the park out for good locations to photograph their wedding party in August.

These two are so sweet together, and so clearly in love.

J teared up a few times at the sweet-nothings P kept whispering in her ear. I'm such a sucker for that kind of romantic stuff - I'm so excited to shoot their wedding!

Thanks for sharing your afternoon with me, guys! Can't wait for the big event in August!

Natalie and Thad's Engagement Session

This Thursday I met up with Natalie and Thad, whose wedding I'm photographing this August. We met up at Coors Field to start with, because the two of them are big Rockies fans.
They were willing to get a little adventurous on Blake Street... I knew we'd have a good session after they were game for this pose!Aren't they a beautiful couple?We headed over to Riverfront Park for a few shots. One of my favorite things about photographing weddings and engagement sessions (and family sessions too, actually) is seeing how much these people love each other. It just makes me happy. I don't always notice these sweet little looks while I'm shooting away, but then I get home and open up a gem like this one. *Sigh* I love my job!Thad has a great eye! He spotted this awesome little spot of white water along the Platte - it was a perfect spot for photos. They're gorgeous together.


This was my favorite from the whole day, I think. It was also one of the very last shots! I think Natalie looks like an old-Hollywood movie star - can't wait to see her as a bride!!

Beth and Justin's Engagement Session

Yesterday I went to Riverfront Park with Justin and Beth for their e-session. They're getting married in July, and after spending an hour or so with them in front of my camera, I am even more excited to shoot their wedding. Seriously, the camera loves these two.

We started at the Millenium bridge. I love the graphic lines it brings to a picture.



Denver positively glows at this time of day.

I am a little in love with blurry train tracks. It's kind of an obsession.

Mmmm...the light through the Aspen trees - I love Colorado in May!

A little bit of flare...

Did I mention that the camera loves her? Because it really, really does.

What you get when you ask a couple to pretend they're in a perfume ad. I think they nailed it...

The Platte River at sunset

I loved the way this looked - like their own private ballroom.

Thanks Beth and Justin! Can't wait until July!
