Dolores and Daniel’s wedding was a beautiful two day event over Memorial Day weekend.  They had their nuptial mass on Saturday at Sacred Heart Church in Old Colorado City.

Day 2 was a little tough on Dolores and Daniel–Colorado Springs people might remember all of the crazy rain we had that weekend.  It washed out their chosen wedding site and poured down on their preferred portrait spots!  They made some quick changes and we ended up doing their portraits on the grounds of their reception site–The Briarhurst.  It was beautiful and completely green from all the rain we’d had that week.   We got some STUNNING portraits!

This ring shot was Nic’s idea and I love it.  Perfect way to capture the rain that played such a big part in the day!weddingphotographercoloradosprings11

I have brought this umbrella to every wedding Just In Case.  I was a little excited to finally break it out–I have had rainy day poses rolling around in my head for a while!

Thanks for having us capture your wedding weekend, Dolores and Daniel!  We know the rain was a disappointment but are so glad you were willing to go out in the drizzle for pictures!  You were great sports and we wish you all the best!
