Irene and Calvin (wedding) – Black Forest, Colorado

There’s something spectacularly memorable about a wedding where the emotion is incredibly raw and authentic. When the couple comes to the altar, hearts full, anticipating their new future together. When it’s a small gathering of close friends and family, in the forest and there’s not a dry eye at the end of the evening. It’s powerful and heart stirring. I’m grateful to have spent the evening with Irene and Calvin. It was a celebration of a couple I’m grateful to call my friends.

Alysha + Justin (wedding) – Colorado Springs, Colorado

Congratulations to Alysha and Justin! In true late summer Colorado fashion, it rained right before their ceremony – and also in true late summer Colorado fashion, it cleared quickly and left the Eagles Nest lawn at Glen Eyrie lovely. Grateful to have spent the day with these two and I simply adore shooting at Glen Eyrie! Cheers to new adventures!
