On August 18th, I got to photograph an amazing wedding at the Botanic Gardens and The Grant Humphrey’s Mansion in Denver. The day started for Kirk (my husband and second shooter) and I when we saw Jen on her way to the hotel room to get dressed. I introduced her to Kirk and the first thing she said to him was “I love your wife!” I probably didn’t handle it all that well because I’m terrible with compliments, but I hope you know how special that was for me to hear Jen! The truth is that I feel the same way! I often confess to people that I do what I do because I love my art, but most importantly because I LOVE everyone I photograph. It is such a thrilling experience to watch the most important day of my couples’ lives unfold before me. I feel like I know you all so well by the time the day is through and I genuinely feel like we are friends. Anyway, on to Jen and Bryan’s wonderful day…

I thought this was such a funny moment…

This cracked me up too…

There was a beautiful photograph of Jen’s parents in front of the unity candles that struck a cord when they were lit. Though her parent’s weren’t there physically, we all felt their presence in spirit.


We had a little rain after the ceremony, but once it cleared up, the sky was amazing!

In case you didn’t notice, they had a great vintage Great Gatsby theme, which went perfectly with the classic Rolls Royce limo they pulled off in…

The party was awesome! Jen, Bryan, and their guests were an absolute riot!

Everyone always seems to love when I lay in the middle of the dance floor. These guys tried something a little different (by the way, the guy in the middle was their officiant)!

When the DJ played “Time Warp” Jen lip synched every line in full character! It was absolutely hilarious (and really good-I was impressed)!
