Living life in only black and white? Couldn’t be me. 🏳️‍🌈🎨

Sorry but this one just missed the mark. Like not even close, continents away, and underwater. 🤣

Sarah and Alex are whimsical, creative, and full of personal style and they took each of those traits into their wedding day. 🔮

Joining forces with they took over Dunafon Castle to create a unique and playful wedding.

Congratulations Sarah and Alex on your magical fantasy wedding! 🐉👑

People throw around the term, “intimate wedding.” I prefer the term, “Connected wedding.” Here’s why…

It isn’t about the number of people at your wedding. It’s about how you feel with those people. 🥰

Sharing vows is an intimate thing. PDA is vulnerable for so many of us, but your wedding day is a day to shamelessly make out with your partner (if you want to), hold each other close, and celebrate on the dance floor surrounded by people who love you. It makes sense that you wouldn’t wanna do that with your borderline-homophobic uncle.

A connected wedding is about being with the people — and only the people — who make you feel seen, celebrate and LOVED.

Whether you’re celebrating with five family members in a meadow, 100 of your closest friends at a backyard BBQ, or just the two of you on a mountain top with your dog, surround yourself with those who love you and cherish your relationship for exactly what it is.

I hope you have a wonderful, love filled, holiday with those who mean the most to you.

It’s that time of year where photographer are hunkering down to finish our workload for the year so if you can’t find us, check in front of the computer 😂

For me its been go go go since the beginning of August and I’ve loved every single moment I’ve been able to capture so far this year.

Here’s a quick peek at some with much more to come soon!

Ashley and Hope's RMNP elopement was full of sun, love, and rainbows.

10/27/2025

I had never been to .mountainviewranch but Brittany and Charli brought me along with them to celebrate the start of their marriage in midst of towering evergreens and rustic elegance.

In classic Colorado fashion, we were battling the rain for the afternoon, but I think it made the day all the more magical and Brittany and Charli were perfectly willing to go with the flow.

They got ready in separate floors of the house on the property, then met in the trees for a beautiful first look. The incoming rain showers made it feel very Twilight inspired, and they were so happy to finally embrace under an umbrella together.

The rain quickly picked up so we retreated to the covered porch and indoors for a few more photos while guests arrived in shuttles and hung out under the covered patio. Luckily the rustic space for the reception had beautiful large windows and light even with the rain.

To give the weather a chance to clear, Brittany and Charli opened the bar and hosted cocktail hour before the ceremony and by the time they were ready to walk down the aisle and say “I do” the weather was tapering off and the sun was peaking out.

After the ceremony we wandered into some more twilight feeling trees, this time with sun pouring down on them, then they joined their guests for dinner, dancing, and toasts.

We did sneak out for sunset portraits and gave these two a few minutes to relax and breath in the fresh summer air, before they headed back in to join the dance party.

I love how in love Brittany and Charli are, how they met at just the right time, and how they laugh in exactly the same way.

Forest and Ryan Part 2!

During dinner, the weather took a crazy Colorado turn. It poured rain and then turned to hail that didn’t let up for over an hour.

Even though the band had to move indoors and the dancers on the dance floor could see their breath, everyone at the party stuck around to the end to celebrate Ryan and Forest.

A couple (more!) fun moments of their day:

Forest changed into a 3 piece suit after dinner to showcase their style.

They served Little Man Ice Cream for dessert.

They brought in an improv troop to lead guests through fun improv activities together.

All in all, a perfect Colorado wedding day!
Congratulations Forest and Ryan!

Forest and Ryan Part 1!
I don’t know if I’ve seen two people more jazzed with full body excitement to be marrying each other than Forest (she/they) and Ryan (he/him).

I captured their proposal in Rocky Mountain national Park last year, and I was beyond excited to be able to continue celebrating them at their wedding in Idaho Springs at .

We met up in Golden where they got ready separately, but quickly convened for a first look by the creek of the Golden Hotel

The joy on both of their faces when they saw each other for the first time, set the tone for the day. They truly created an experience that represented the things they loved about their relationship and each other, including taking their family and friends to a favorite trailhead near their venue that boasted aspen groves, and wildflowers

When we got to their venue, Echo Mountain Resort, they wanted to build in the time to allow their friends and family to ride the chairlift with them. So we took a turn on the lift cheering and celebrating with everyone on the way up and down. True to form, Ryan even made up a song that he sang to Forest while they rode together.

Their ceremony was held in front of the most gorgeous, full-scale mountain backdrop. The vows that they shared with each other touched on the way they brought out the humorous, silly, goofy sides of each other and how their love and support of each other allowed them to be their true authentic selves in a way they didn’t know was possible.

Their adorable, golden doodle, Tofu, delivered their rings to cheers and high-fives. The physical connection was prominent through the ceremony, including doing a ring warming with every guest in the audience.

After their first kiss, they danced down the aisle and into the tent, where they jumped up and down and celebrated finally being married together

Stay tuned for Part 2!
