space gallery – new years eve wedding

Jan 18, 2012

I had so much fun with Nikki and Chris at their engagement shoot last month that I couldn’t wait for their New Years Eve wedding at the Space Gallery in Denver! Jamie Smith got to be my second shooter for the day, and we had a wonderful night capturing this family! (And we may have come to blows on just whose daughter gets to marry adorable little Liam, but that’s a story for a different post…) ;)

Nikki and Chris are so in love–we captured so many amazing candid pictures of them that look staged their so perfect and full of love! Like these first two of the bride and groom immediately after the wedding ceremony…

(As you can see, the bagpipes during the cocktail hour made a big impression on the little girls! The shot of the girls fleeing up the stairs as the bagpiper approaches cracks me up every time I look at it!)

I could do an entire post with about 1000 pictures from the first dance–that is just a tiny snippet!

After several hours of dancing, it was time for the count down to midnight. I just love the idea of a New Years Eve wedding–what a wonderful way to welcome in the new year–your new life together ready to begin!
