by Megan February 23, 2009 in Wedding Photography 0 comments tags: Colorado, Colorado Springs
Black Forest, CO — You’ll remember this couple from here. This past Saturday they were married at The Pinery in Black Forest, Colorado! I know I say this after every wedding (because it’s really true) but I love my job. Julie and Jeremy are amazing people because of their faith as well as the wonderful friends and family that support and love them. They are so in love and I felt honored to be able to be there to document their day. I have so many favorites from the weekend, so this is going to be a long post. But it’s worth it. 🙂 I hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed taking them. 🙂 Getting ready… She had an amazing dress!! Um… love the shoes! Due to the time of their ceremony and the lack of light afterward, they opted to see one another before the wedding. Here’s Jeremy about to see his bride for the very first time. She was stunning! He thought so too. 🙂 And then it was time to party! …and they lived happily ever after. 🙂 Hope you guys are having a blast in Jamaica! 🙂

Steven and Erin are getting married in 6 short weeks here in the springs and we really lucked out on Monday for perfect weather during their engagement shoot! You’d think Spring was almost here with the weather we’ve been having! I’m ready for summer. 🙂 Here’s some of my fav’s from the shoot. 🙂 Love the bright colors in the doors downtown!! I enjoyed spending the afternoon with you both. Looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks!! 🙂

partner with me to help them

The last week or so I have been thinking of this family and on Sunday their little girl when home to be with the Lord. My heart aches because my son is just a little older than Cora… and I just can’t imagine. Her parents want to build a playground in memory of her and I want to partner with you to help them get it done! The last week in February my schedule is wide open and I want to fill it with shoots. For $125 I will do your photo shoot (engagements, family, babies, newborn, maternity… whatever!) and all the proceeds will go directly to this family. For you, that will include a full set of 4×6 prints, a CD with all the edited photos as well as the copyright to the photos. If you’ve been wanting to do a shoot, but haven’t… now is the time. It goes to something good. 🙂 Send me an email megan@meganhardrephotography.com (the sooner, the better) if you want to set up a time the last week in February to get ’em done. 🙂

Aubrey+Kurt=Married

San Diego, California – This past Friday I flew out to San Diego to photograph my first wedding of 2009! It was an amazing weekend spent with wonderful people and equally wonderful weather. But really, it was all about Aubrey and Kurt. I met them almost a year ago while Aubrey worked for a local bank. I did their engagement photos that March and May and then they decided they wanted to fly me to California for their wedding (yay!) and since that point, they have become such good friends of ours and we felt so blessed to be a part of their special day. Saturday we started really early with Aubrey getting her hair and make up done while the guys had breakfast and got ready at a separate location. This morning we woke up at 5am (ouch!) to head to the beach to catch the sunrise. I was looking forward to this part of the weekend for so long! Let me tell you, it was well worth getting up at 5pm to catch the amazing sunrise and fog coming across the pacific ocean. So without further ado, here’s just some of my favorites. I edited a few on […]
