ABOUT MY
Approach
WHEN I GOT STARTED AS A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER, I saw a lot of posed photos, where the couple was smiling at the camera. While this isn’t a bad thing, I also saw photos that had passion, romance and drama in them; photos I wanted to stare at for a long time. They told a story in themselves. Since then, I have been practicing the art of creating a moment; a moment that stirs the senses. Paying close attention to the details, I have loved telling the couple’s story, from their engagement through the wedding day! My couples are the highlight of my work and I can truly say they are friends and not clients when the wedding is over. This is the best part about my job and I absolutely love it!
You have labored over every detail for the special day. I love capturing your creativity & unique style. You can be sure I won’t miss a thing!
SO, WHAT HAPPENS NEXT ?
Engagement Shoot Engagements are one of my favorite things to shoot. It is a relaxed environment where you get to plan your dream shoot. Your unique personality and ideas can be conveyed and there is no time constraint. We also get to know one another and learn how to work together to accomplish stunning photos, great practice for your wedding day. My favorite engagements are ones where the couples plans what they want and bring their creative ideas. I had a couple who wanted to replicate Moonrise Kingdom and since she worked for the girl scouts she wanted to make a teepee. We put our heads together and came up with a fantastic shoot filled with details and a beautiful teepee. Of course, not all engagements have to be so involved, it can just be the two of you and your love.
Location If you don’t have a location in mind, I can help you brainstorm ideas. When the location is special to the couple, the photos carry much more meaning. Think of a place where he proposed or a place you like to go together. If you are a couple who goes out on the town a lot, picking a city location is much more meaningful. If you are outdoor enthusiasts, taking pictures at your favorite hiking spot or lake etc. will be ideal.
Bridal Shoot Plan this shoot the same day you have hair and makeup trials. Pick up your wedding gown and we can document you as a bride, calm before the wedding day. Feel free to ask about my favorite hair and make-up teams.
Boudoir Shoot
THIS IS FOR BRIDES WHO WANT TO MAKE A SEXY LITTLE BOOK FOR THEIR MAN. It doesn’t have to be too riské but then again it can be. If you want to wear your wedding lingerie and make a little book for him to open on your big day. You can also do a 10 min shoot like this before you put on your dress for the big day.
The Wedding Day HELPFUL TIPS FOR A STRESS-FREE DAY
Beautiful Light A Beautiful Photo! You have to plan to get the right light in a photo. Having photos at the right time of day can make the photo. Colorado often has a harsh sun. The sun creates a soft, glowing and romantic light about 2 hours before sunset. Coordinate your day to have at least half an hour of time in this ideal light. If you aren’t sure when the sun sets on your wedding day, google it! There are websites that will tell you when sunset will be. Then make sure to add to your timeline half an hour of romantic photos with your new spouse.
First Look The reason I love a first look is because it gives the bride & groom a chance to slip away after hair and makeup and be alone together. It gives me the opportunity to capture that precious moment and the expression as the groom first sees his bride. The upside for you as a couple is more time. You can take family and bridal party pictures before your ceremony and have a chance to be present at your party instead of being whisked away for hours of photos after you are married.
