Katie and Derek’s beautiful wedding at the Broadmoor was a joy to photograph!  Danielle from Entwined Planning coordinated the day beautifully, our beloved Dawn from Hillside Consultants had rocked the flowers, and Randy made the party swing!

Katie had a number of thoughtful touches during the day–one of which was sewing a bit of her mom’s wedding dress into her dress along with the date.

The weather held up for the beautiful outdoor ceremony.

Immediately after the ceremony the skies opened and the wind arrived and we had to move our portrait plans inside.  In a stroke of luck, though, the weather eventually improved enough for us to dash outside for the last ten minutes of the cocktail hour for some outdoor portraits.

You know a wedding reception at the Broadmoor is going to be stunning, and this one certainly didn’t disappoint!  It was also notable for us as the only wedding reception we’ve seen where the man who caught the garter and the woman who caught the bouquet were a couple!

It was an honor to photograph Katie and Derek’s stunning wedding.  We wish them much happiness!

We’re just about hitting the halfway mark in our wedding season this week–hurray!  Today’s sneak peek is from Lizzie’s latest portrait session.  We got the worst weather ever–thunder, lightning, and a serious Noah’s Ark type downpour.  Luckily with the Guthries, though, we were able to just go inside for pizza and beer and wait the storm out.  :D  The benefits of photographing dear friends!  One of these days for one of Lizzie’s shoots we’ll catch some luck on the conditions!

Kaley and Sean have many reasons to be happy–no only are they getting married in October, but they have the sweetest fluffiest golden retriever in the world!
