Wedding Photographer in Boulder

Have you ever seen a first look with an alpaca? Alyssa knew Bradley loved llamas and she compromised with getting an alpaca to show up in her place for the first look!

After lots of plotting behind the scenes to make that happen, Bradley had a surprise too. He gave Alyssa an adorable collage of photos of a puppy that he adopted in secret! They would bring the pup home in a few weeks. Alyssa cried and laughed and it was so sweet to witness.

Before the ceremony, the weather was a bit more cold and windy than expected. They had an amazing team to help reassure them. One of their coordinators read them a poem about how rain on a wedding day is never bad luck. In fact, it symbolizes strength. Rainwater on a knot only makes the knot stronger and more difficult to untie, just like the bond of a marriage.

All wedding days are memorable for the best reasons- Alyssa and Bradley’s day was no exception.

Katie and Mike’s wedding day full of sunshine and color! These two made personalized key chains with each guest’s name on them at their seat before dinner, their flower girls tossed colorful ribbons, they danced to Allison Kraus and Still Woozy and they had the most loving guests. It was such a beautiful day. I’m grateful to have worked with an awesome photographer, Mikaela Antonelli to capture the day digitally and on film!

Payton and Brooke’s wedding day at Roxborough State Park. Just stunning!! Unposed photos will always be the most special to me. Prompting and posing are crucial skills for any photo session, especially for a wedding. And as a documentary wedding photographer, I want you to look back on your photos, be able to see connection, feel love and remember the emotions you felt.

Denver Family Photographer

These photos were just as fun as they look. Rilee and her family were high energy and had so many ideas for funny photos that fit their dynamic and personalities so well. Like their love for the Oregon State Beaver’s team. They brought 3 changes of outfits, accessories, changes of shoes and I was honestly impressed and happy to have so much enthusiasm!

They made the photos such a fun time for me. After Rilee and I worked together for several months this past summer, I was happy to meet her extended family and see the love they have for her. They all flew out from Oregon a few days before her birthday to celebrate and pose for these amazing photos at a park dear Denver.

After taking the group family photos, we moved onto some very on-brand headshots for Rilee to celebrate her birthday. Her self constructed Krispy Kreme donut cake was a hit. Especially to the dog (sadly not pictured) that ran past us and stole a donut off the tray.

Marc, Christina and Hashbrown! Marc and Christina’s love for each other just radiates through their photos. I’m grateful to know them as friends and to witness their kindness for others be spread endlessly anytime I spend time with them. They are such inspiring individuals and just perfect as a couple. Taking these photos for their engagement was an honor and made my heart so happy.
