I needed a few things from the Mac store this weekend. So after getting some lunch I headed over to the Park Meadows Mall. When I got done with the mac store, I walked around for a few minutes looking at the displays. I love seeing the trends and styling of the ads. One of my favorite stores is Aldo, so I went in to look around. I saw this hairband that I thought Angie would really love, so I bought it for her. Why am I telling you all this? Well that little hair band ended up leading to a quick 15 minute shoot with my beautiful wife. Here is a portrait that will hopefully have you wanting to see the rest.
I wanted to share a quick sneak peak of this wedding in Littleton, Colorado. I will be sharing more images from this lovely wedding later this week.
I chose to share this image because I just love it’s leading lines and storytelling. I like to think I know their whole story by looking at this image.
From the beginning, Josh and Melissa were great to work with! We started with an engagement session before their wedding where we kept hearing about this infamous Jeep! We are Jeep owners ourselves, so we understand the love of a Jeep, but with Josh this was a car he spent hours working on and it came in as a very close second to the love of his life. They had wanted to use it for their engagement session, but it didn’t work out, so we knew it would be at the wedding!
They were married on a beautiful day at Stone Mountain Lodge in Lyons, near Estes Park. We all arrived around the same time and Andy quickly grabbed the first shot below of Josh and his mom. At every wedding we do the parents show a lot of emotion and this wedding was no exception. We love watching how happy and proud parents are on the wedding day.
I spent the first part of the day with Melissa in a little white tent, photographing her getting ready with the help of her mom, sisters and friends. It was a lot of fun to watch her when her bouquet arrived; she was so excited and it was so pretty! It was a bigger bouquet filled with pink and white roses and lilies. When it came time, you could see how emotional she was walking out with her father but the ceremony went off perfectly and afterwards we spent some time taking pictures of the two of them around the cute pond and beautiful scenery. Here is part 1 of some of our favorite photojournalistic moments from their wedding day!
Andy & I have recently started a series of photography workshops called the Woodshop! They include a few retreat style workshops and more one on one classes helping other photographers learn specific things for their business. A few weeks back we had a couple of great photographers from Montana fly out for a Woodshop and it was so much fun! We spent half the day discussing business, marketing, SEO and things that were specific to their company. The second half of of the day we had our assistant, Charlotte become our model and we played around in different areas of Denver with different lighting.
Working in a smaller group was great because we were able to address the specific needs of the people we were with! As with all of our small workshops we design the day based on what people want to learn! We wanted to share some of the photos from that day that we took of our beautiful assistant, Charlotte!
Also a special thank you to Chris Rebo and his business partner, Janna; we had a great time with you guys and have some amazing photography!
We didn’t shoot much since we were teaching but here a few ones of charlotte.
