It's All In The Details

The whole day begins with the

DETAILS!

This is one of my favorite parts of the day because it allows me to prepare and get my creative side warmed up for the rest of the day! This blog to help my brides that aren’t sure what to bring and the best way to make sure I get those detail shots that sets the tone and style for the rest of the day! There is no wrong way to do your details, if there is something you think you might want in the pictures you absolutely should include it.

When we get close to wedding day, I’ll make sure to have a final phone call with you to go over some last minute tips and details. In this call, I’ll let you know the best way to make sure everything is ready for me is to have all of your details on one place (a lot of brides use a shoe box or a bag). That way when I arrive I can get right to work and we can get your wedding day started!

Below is a list of a few common items my brides use for their details, but as I said before, the sky is the limit!

Common Items To Have For Your Wedding Details

-Dress-

-Veil/ Hair Pieces-

-Rings (all three)-

Abby + David's Spruce Mountain Wedding- Denver Wedding Photographer

It was such a perfect day for Abby and David’s wedding at Spruce Mountain! The weather was gorgeous, the clouds were beautiful, and these two were so happy all day it was infectious! Starting with a first look at the pond, the day only got better from there. These two were so sweet and were smiling all day and the ceremony out in the ranch was absolutely picture perfect! The reception featured some very heartfelt speeches and everybody was on the dance floor having a blast. Here are some photos from the day! Hope you enjoy!

Highlands Ranch Mansion Wedding- Denver Wedding Photographer

Haley and Jeremiah’s wedding was stunning in every sense of the word! From one of the most beautiful churches I’ve seen in Denver, Our Lady Of Loreto, to the always gorgeous Highlands Ranch Mansion, this wedding had it all! These two are so sweet and were such a pleasure to work with. So much planning went into this day and it was all worth it as the day went off without a hitch and was such a special moment! These two clearly are so in love and it shows in the photos, here’s a few from the day for you to enjoy!

Jenny + David's Mizzou Wedding

Going back to where I went to college to photograph Jenny and David’s wedding was such a blast and FULL of nostalgia! I spent four amazing years at the University of Missouri and it was so cool to spend a weekend back there to celebrate with these two! Rain has definitely been the theme of our time working together, starting with a little bit of a downpour during our engagement session in Colorado. But Jenny and David stuck through that and we ended up with a double rainbow!

Once again rain was looking to sneak into the day for these two, but at the last minute it decided to hold off and let Jenny and David have the perfect day they were hoping for! From some rooftop first looks to some fun pictures at the columns, it was such a fun day and night overall! Congrats Jenny and David! Here’s a sneak peek from the day to enjoy!

Sarah + Adam Mountain Session

Wow taking these photos of Sarah and Adam brings back some big nostalgia vibes! Years ago, in St. Louis, these two were my first ever portrait shoot and now here we are again. Although this time they were willing to get back into their wedding attire and relive a little bit of their own nostalgia!

Needless to say the pictures turned out so gorgeous!!! Sarah looked just as beautiful in her wedding dress as she did the first time she wore it! And Adam looked great in his suit.. they complimented each other perfectly. It was just as if I was back at their wedding two years ago in STL, expect for the insane mountain views!

When some of us decided to take a trip out to the mountains near Telluride, we figured why not get some epic Colorado photos while we’re at it. Sarah and Adam have been good friends of mine for a long time and have been two of my biggest supporters on this photography journey of mine, so I'm very grateful for them and just wanted to say thank you! Thank you for always rooting for me, for your unwavering support, and, of course, for letting me use you as my models from St. Louis to Telluride! Can’t wait to take your 50th anniversary photos years down the road :)

From my very first portrait shoot to my latest! It’s been a fun four years!

So beautiful in that dress!!

I absolutely love veil shots and this one turned out great!

That backdrop though….

Gotta show off the dress!
