My style is very couture, fresh, and fun. In other words, these aren’t your parent’s wedding photographs. I strive to capture my couples as who they are, how they love one another, and tell the story of love. I want a couple's pictures to be a reflection of them. I am inspired by fashion, which allows me to capture my clients in a way that is unique and editorial.
Please browse my boudoir gallery as well. These photos are a great gift for your Man anytime, or as a special surprise gift on your wedding day, Valentine’s Day, or any day. These sessions are classy and modern. Your someone special, will love them.
I have had the opportunity to work with Colorado's top wedding planners, resorts, videographers, DJ's, and venues.

She designed custom Chucks … blue ones … with their wedding date on it … but first she wore hot pink shoes. He wore the same custom Chucks. They were married at the Phipps Mansion in Denver – which is beautiful by the way. They laugh together, compliment each other – and are pretty rad peeps all the way around. She designed some pretty cool details for their wedding day, all of which told a story about them and their love for one another. Erika and Matt are uber fab … and I am so happy I got to photograph their big day. Here’s a little sneak peek …

I can’t say enough about this super sweet couple, their amazingly sweet bridal party, Jenny’s outgoing and fun loving Father, or her amazing brother. Leviy looked smashing in his beige suit with orange accents, and the girls looked HAWT in their green dresses. Jenny arranged the most fabulous details that can only be described as Ralph Lauren meets backyard BBQ with mountain accents. It was amazing. The accents on the tables were perfect, from mountain center pieces with your name on it, to their bulldog cakes. Really – this wedding was so much fun. Oh – and one of the best parts, they served breakfast! What a fun idea for a mid-day wedding!
Jenny and Leviy – thanks for letting me tell your story. What a fabulous one you have!
Love this shot of Jenny’s brother helping her finalize the corset of the dress

Sometimes, I shoot a wedding – and I have no words. Trust me, that doesn’t happen very often (I’m a talker . Natalie and I shared an absolutely AH-MA-ZING day with Lauren and Brandon in Vail. You probably remember Lauren and Brandon – they are the super fun and kind hearted peeps in this Downtown Denver engagement shoot. I have loved every moment of working with them. Lauren was breathtaking in her Alita Graham dress. Brandon was looking pretty spiffy too. Their black and pink decor was beautifully accented and executed throughout the Donovan. I can’t wait to show you more highlights of this wedding, but until then, Lauren and Brandon – here is your sneak peek!

I knew I loved Molly from the day I met her. She is vibrant, gorgeous, and a ton of fun. Then I met Nate – love him too. These two are amazing together – and truly just a ball of fun! They had their wedding at Cielo at Castle Pines and had a tropical theme to the day. Apparently they wanted to have a destination wedding, but could not have all of their out of town guests arrive – so opted for a tropical wedding in Colorado. The tables were decorated with gorgeous pastels, starfish, animal pictures, and GORGEOUS tropical flowers. Molly and Nate were stunning – and their ceremony was kind of amazing. I had so much fun with these two!
Molly and Nate – thanks! I hope you enjoyed Costa Rica! Huge Hugs!
I never get sick of this moment!
Awwww yeah!
Molly – no really – I love you!
