Fitzgerald Wedding | Wedding

I’m so happy to be able to share this wedding with everyone. It was a special day that I was thankful for. Was able to shoot this wedding with Josh Cuchiara at the new Pinery at the Hill Downtown. It was such a lovely venue, and hope to be back for future weddings and parties. I’ve known Inez for several years, back when we bartend and served together. I wouldn’t have thought back that that I would be photographing her wedding… but I was so happy to. I even remember a long time ago when Inez told me she’d be fine with a Super Hero Wedding in Vegas with Sean…. needless to say she didn’t (although it would have been bad ass). But either way it was such an amazing day. So much thought, time and creativity went into the planning of this special day. I’m grateful that I was able to capture such a beautiful event in their lives. Hope you enjoy and looking forward to more weddings in 2014.

Leehang Family | Portraits

This is Heather and her wonderful family. I’ve known Heather for many years. We went to middle and high school together in the wonderful city of Falcon, CO. It’s been so great to see the journey Heather has been on with growing up, school, having kids, and getting married. So glad I was able to get these wonderful Fall photo’s of The Leehang Family. Enjoy!

Grothe Family | Portraits

Fall is here and so are the Grothe family pictures! Another year has gone by, and they couldn’t have turned out better. It was a perfect fall day, with the right amount of lighting…. and we finished right before the wind came and took Wakley away! I’m really glad to know the Grothe Family. They are such wonderful family with so much joy, love and laughter. There were just too many photo’s to choose from for a preview, so I just did a whole bunch of them. I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. I had so much fun capturing their laughs and smiles. Hope you enjoy them!

Taylor & Hannah | Wedding

I’ve been waiting a long time for this wedding. It seems like a lot of people were waiting a long time too. Almost anyone that knows Taylor and Hannah, KNOW that they belong together. Since the beginning of DLA, they’ve just had this chemistry between them like none other. I’ve gotten to know both of them on a personal and real level. I am SO thankful for both of them, their love, and how much they have poured out into me. They have such a heart of full of love, joy, and laughter. They are humble servants that love the Lord and truly desire to follow and serve God. Now together and married, as one, they will do so much together with Jesus at the center of it all. I am so proud of these two and their commitment for one another. It’s been a long journey full of ups and downs. Still they both fought for each other, and will continually all of their days. I love these two and I am so happy to show a few pictures from their special day.

Aaron & Megan | Anniversary

3 years. 36 months. 1,095 days. 26,296 hours. 1,576,800 minutes. 94,608,000 seconds. That’s how long Aaron and Megan have been married. I had a blast getting to shoot their anniversary pictures. I’ve known both of them for a couples years. Meeting them in Ohio thru a mutual friend and staying in touch is how we stayed connected. I was able to visit them again in Ohio and they came to Colorado for Desperation Conference before they actually moved here. Now they’ve been here almost a year! Time seriously flies. They added to their family not too long ago…. Bella. Still got that puppy energy, but so fun to play with. Very blessed to call them friends and looking forward to the years to come!

Jess & Patrick | Portraits

This is my friend Jess and her boyfriend Patrick. I have been friends with Jess for several years now. We met when I was an intern helping lead a High School Campus Group for _DSM. Jess was always such a happy, positive, individual. After much talks, and friends and such, we became friends. Jess however moved to California with her parents and has been out there ever since. Thankfully, we live in a world of Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and iPhones. So we kept in contact. Jess is a wonderful musician and has such a talent. I can prove it! Just go on iTunes or Spotify and search “Jess Jane.” Such great music. She is gonna go places one day…. and hopefully she brings me along the tour for pictures! 😉 However Jess came to Colorado to visit her boyfriend Patrick. They don’t get to see each other often, so Jess asked if I would do some photo’s. Of course I said yes! Hope you enjoy these as much as I did. However, for this post, I decided to only post Black & Whites. I loved the all so much and I know Jess will love them too!Jess & Patrick2Jess & Patrick3Jess & Patrick4Jess & Patrick1Jess & Patrick5Jess & Patrick6Jess & Patrick7Jess & Patrick8Jess & Patrick9Jess & Patrick10

Taylor & Hannah | Engagement

Oh this is such an exciting post. I have been waiting to do these pictures for quite a while! Hannah and Taylor are dear friends of mine, that I’ve known for a few years now. Being able to do DLA with them, and get to know their hearts has been a true honor and blessing. During their first year as interns, they weren’t allowed to date, but everyone knew that they would tie the knot. Words cannot describe my love for these two and how happy I am as they soon embark on their journey together as a married couple.

Emily Knurr | Portraits

This was a last minute planned shoot. For no reason, but only for me really. I needed something to find. I needed to find that spark of passion I seemed to have when I first picked up a camera. Seasons change and they don’t stop coming. This new season I find myself in life is quite different. However I always remember that the Lord is so faithful. He is with us even when we forget Him. I am thankful for a good friend and the photographer who inspired me to pick up a DSLR camera and to ‘go for it’. I wouldn’t be were I am now without alot of his encouragement. These pictures, these edits… they mean so much more to me personally than anyone. It’s MY work and it’s what I’m proud of. A big thank you for Emily Knurr for getting up at 6am and posing! 🙂
