"Weather" it's rain or snow....the Wedding must go on!

The first wedding that I ever photographed was the in rain. Not just a drizzle that came on and off….a full blown rain storm. However, I had my second shooter with me {Koni, who I adore and miss terribly!!! Why did you move to Texas? We were such a great team!} and with both of us working extra hard….and with the help of two of the groomsmen we were able [...]

 

Senior Portraits: Meet Dani.

While I am mainly a Denver wedding photographer, I also enjoy many other types of sessions on weekdays such as family portraits, newborn portraits, birth photography, child portraits and…..SENIOR PORTRAITS! Senior Portraits are one of my favorite things to photograph! I love the excitement {and YES, the attitude!} that teenagers bring to a photo session. I love that the cute little smiles that quietly show how excited they are to [...]

Ask The Camera Chick: Can you really do ANYTHING in Photoshop?

For our very first Ask The Camera Chick question I decided to start with the most common question that I am asked: Can you really do ANYTHING in Photoshop? For me, as a Denver wedding photographer, Photoshop is a tool that I use to take good images and make them great images. After a photography session you’ll find me zipping back to my computer to download all the images from [...]

 

Ask The Camera Chick: The Reveal.

For those who are my friends on Facebook, you saw the hilarious video that I posted a few days ago. It was a spoof video about all the funny things that people say to photographers and it was 100% accurate! I watched it at least a dozen times and laughed so hard that tears were rolling down my cheeks. A few of my photography colleagues watched it and said they [...]

 

Destination Weddings. And some drool on the side.

Often, when the term “destination wedding” is brought up images of Mexico, Fiji and other exotic locations come to mind. For me, I am mainly a Denver wedding photographer. However, when I take on a “destination wedding” they are usually within the United States. My most common locations are Iowa and Utah. Mainly because I have a lot of connections, friends and family in those states so I’m always very [...]

My adorable little niece, Katelyn, had her 8th birthday last week. Today our family traveled up to Fort Collins to celebrate her birthday and also to celebrate her baptism. Katelyn’s mom let her choose a dress and she has great taste for an eight year old little girl! It was a gorgeous long, white dress with the cutest little ruffle jacket over the top. Very fashion forward. I arrived about [...]

I realize that every wedding is unique and I love hearing about all the fun details that make each wedding special. I always [...]

 

Snow Day.

My snow angels. Since I’m a Denver photographer most of my photography clients are naturally in the Denver area I’m sure that you all experienced the same super snow day today that I did. My children’s school actually cancelled school for today….yesterday! I loved having the notice of the school closure but decided to keep this important information between myself and my husband. You see….kids are funny creatures. They wake [...]
