Event Photographer in Boulder

The Community Food Share in Lousiville hosted an event at Left Hand Brewing over the summer to feature local businesses and artists. There were many performances by local bands singers and they were all incredible!

Below is the band, Chimbangle, which describes themselves as a high energy, Latin band.

Hazel Miller performed and they were incredible as always!

There were booths to purchase t-shirts from the food share, face painting by Katrina, drinks and food to sample and lots of dancing all day of course.

Courthouse Wedding Photographer in Boulder

Kat and Coury’s elopement day at the Boulder courthouse and Chautauqua was beautiful. Judge Larson was wonderful about making the ceremony personal with some quick details of their love story.

The Boulder courthouse has some lovely photo spots despite it being a court building! On a Wednesday afternoon, it wasn’t busy in the halls and made for a great day to get married!

At Chautauqua, the grass and wildflowers in the mountains were gorgeous. I love taking my couples around Chautauqua to see these great views and find some shade in the afternoon. 2 hours was a perfect amount of time for 2 locations and to get all of the photos they wanted.

Wedding Photographer in Boulder at Chautauqua Park

A Wedding on the Lawn at Chautauqua is a beautiful place in town, close to hotels and easy to access for guests whether they’re in Colorado or coming in from out of state.

Christina and Gerry’s wedding day was beautiful. It was bright, sometimes very windy and then got a bit cloudy, but this is a standard afternoon in Colorado.

In the early afternoon, Eleanor and I arrived to take getting ready photos, create flat lays with keepsake items and document Christina and Gerry preparing for their first look!

Once Christina and Gerry were ready, we set them up in a private lawn area of the cottages they were staying in near Chautauqua.

The cottages are available HERE to be rented out for weddings and guests to stay in that are within walking distance from the lawn area where large weddings take place.

Their first look was quiet and beautiful. These two also read their vows to each other in this special moment. We also walked to a trail near the Chautauqua Auditorium for a few scenic couples portraits.

As they made their way to the lawn for their ceremony, Gerry revealed a surprise for Christina in the park near the cottages.

As they made their way to the lawn at Chautauqua for the ceremony, their adorable dog made an entrance with the best man, Christina’s father led her down the aisle and the sun was shining so bright! It was a gorgeous afternoon for a wedding.

Their guests made their way up to the cocktail area where there was live music, food and even a postcard-making table to send well wishes to the newlyweds. Including personalized things like this on your wedding day is so important. It becomes so meaningful to you and your loved ones there to celebrate.

Their reception was held inside a larger cottage near the ones they were getting ready in earlier in the day. It is designed for larger events like weddings and has an upper level inside with plenty of tables, room for food and dancing.

We ended the day by taking sunset portraits at Chautauqua. The soft light after the sun disappears behind the mountains is always lovely. We only took about ten minutes or so to take photos so they could get back to their celebration, but most couples say that it’s nice to get outside for even a few minutes and re-center themselves for the rest of the night to socialize and dance with their loved ones.

Moab, Utah - May 2025

This was my second trip to Moab. The first trip was back in 2015. That trip was a roadtrip from the midwest and was a 2 week vacation. This trip was only a long weekend that we drove out to from Denver and it was equally incredible.

We camped on a BLM site about 20 minutes from Moab. It was open and windy, but there was a big structure that gave us shade while it was scorching hot during the day.

Each day, we drove to Moab and explored a new area. We woke up at 4am one day to hike to Delicate arch and get ahead of the warmest part of the day. We found an awesome waterfall and river where we spent each afternoon to cool off. And we visited Canyonlands on one day as well. This was another early start to the day and it was the right decision since the entrance line around Memorial Day weekend was very long.
