It’s time for Nathan and Jackie’s sneak peek!  It took me a while to get this together because of the sheer number of photos we snapped–a new record for us!  Nathan and Jackie had one of those joy-filled weddings that demands a perfect sunny day!  I knew from my very first meeting with them how positive and friendly Nathan is, and his best man’s wonderful toast just confirmed what fantastic friends and people they are!  Jackie and Nathan had a Jewish wedding ceremony, which always fills me with jealousy over their great traditions, and, as Nic described it, an almost academic approach to the ceremony.  We got to see a traditional dance that we hadn’t seen before–the Mezinke Tanz–a dance for the father and mother when their final son or daughter gets married.  Nathan was so funny as he danced and said something to the effect of “Hurray!  You’re rid of me!”

The wedding reception was held at the St Julien Hotel in Boulder and it is a new favorite.  They were wonderful to work with and we would love to photograph more weddings at their hotel, so if you are a St Julien bride, send us an email!

Jackie and Nathan, this is just a tiny fraction of the many many photos that will be in your final gallery this weekend!

I loved starting off last week with a cute picture from our family folder and am thinking of making it a weekly event.  Here are my two turkeys sharing a book in bed this morning.  Long live afternoon preschool and all the lazy mornings it affords!

Coming up:  Nathan and Jackie’s sneak peek from their incredible Boulder wedding!

Rob and Anna got a little sneak peek of their family portrait session here, and now it’s time to fully share the pictures from their shoot!    I almost wish I wasn’t going to do a gallery for this post because I want to say something about every photo.  Like how poor Lauren was sick and having a really rough time but perked up at the promise of a Target field trip.  Or how Jack and I could hang out with my camera all day long and never get bored or run out of smiles or silly faces.  (The second picture from that post of Jack and Lauren’s shoot a year and a half ago hangs in the studio, so I see Jack’s smile every day!)  Or how hard Lawson giggled while playing with his daddy.  I could talk about how much I completely adore the pictures of Rob and Anna comforting Lauren and how I love capturing those less smiley moments, since it is such a big part of the magic of being a Mommy or Daddy.  I could talk about their perfect outfits or how Anna’s impeccable style and beauty reminds me of January Jones from Mad Men.  But instead I’ll just post a zillion pictures and let them speak for themselves!
