Boulder, CO Graduation Photographer at Chautauqua
Jess earned her masters in Environmental Studies here in Boulder. So of course we had to take photos near the beautiful mountains of Boulder. and stop at the Rayback for a beer to finish our session :)
Send me an email and let’s plan a session to document and celebrate your achievements.
This hike was a perfect challenge with lots of hiking uphill and about 4.5 miles round trip. The hike goes through pine groves, past waterfalls and up to Lost Lake which has gorgeous views of the mountains in the distance and beautiful water.
I got to hike this trail with my childhood friend who came to Colorado for a weekend to visit and enjoy the mountains.
Venue: Wedgewood Weddings - Boulder, CO
Photographers: (myself) and Mackenzie at Mackro Photography - https://www.mackrophotography.com/
Aleece and Jeff’s Boulder Creek wedding at WedgeWood was gorgeous!
I arrived and met the groomsmen to start taking photos with Mackenzie. This entire bridal party was hilarious. Typically, groups of people need prompting to look more natural and to relax a bit. These people were already there! They were cracking jokes nonstop and laughing, looking incredible! It was a challenge to reign them all in to take a photo of them looking at the camera with more serious faces. I would take this kind of challenge any day.
It started drizzling after the ceremony, so we took some quick group photos, but then there was a downpour with tons of thunder and lightning. No one was fazed- the cocktail hour moved under the tent where dinner would be and we ran out to take photos whenever the rain let up a little.
Saturday Lake Hike - The weather was gorgeous this day. It was very warm around 11am and by 2 or 3pm, rain started falling and the temperatures dropped. It was a nice break from the harsh sun.
The blues here are incredible. I already want to go back :)
