fine arts center wedding – colorado springs photographer

Sep 08, 2011

Marlis and Russell are one of those couples that are just FUN to be around.  They had one of the cutest first looks of all time, and they both live in Australia, so how could they not be cool?!  (Along with the Australian accent, Russell and his family were also SUPER excited to see squirrels, which totally made my day.  They were as excited about squirrels running around the Fine Art Center grounds as we would be at seeing koala bears outside a wedding reception!  Who knew that Australia doesn’t have squirrels?)  They are such a happy couple with a gorgeous sense of style and it was a privilege to capture their beautiful wedding!

Wedding Details: Ceremony – Marlis’s parents’ home  Reception/Catering – Fine Art Center Flowers – Jon Bravo  Makeup – Natosha Cortez  DJ – Sound Junction DJ

Marlis had so many great accessories–lots of them from her mom and grandma!

The adorable first look I was telling you.

It’s usually the candid ones I love the most.  I just love these two shots of Marlis from our simple walk back to the house!

I love Nic’s angle on this wedding party portrait!

The ceremony was beautiful.

I love the series of shots I captured right after the ceremony.  I think they capture the bliss of being newly wed!

Marlis’s sister’s toast was so sweet.  I love it when the toast giver can’t get through it without crying!
