Ten Date Night Ideas In Denver
Need some date night ideas in Denver? We got you!
Jess + Andy at Blackstone Rivers Ranch
There’s something undeniably magical about a wedding in the mountains—and when you add a surprise snowfall, it’s pure enchantment. Jess and Andy’s intimate wedding at Blackstone Rivers Ranch was a stunning celebration of love, nature, and the beauty of the unexpected.
Shelly + Tyler | Devil's Thumb
Colorado during the winter brings a certain kind of magic and romance that other seasons don’t. Especially at Devil’s Thumb Ranch in Tabernash (outside of Winter Park). The wedding was a weekend full of events - which allows guest to truly be present and spend time with the couple. Here are a few of my favorites from the big day!
How to make your wedding your own!
There are countless ways to have a non-traditional wedding that can be personalized to the couple's interests, personalities, and values. Here are some ideas to consider.
History Behind Some Of The Traditions That We Still Do At Weddings
Weddings have been celebrated across cultures and throughout history, and many of the traditions associated with them have been passed down through generations. But do we even know why or how these traditions got started
Lauryn + Nik | Wedding in Sayulita, MX
Lauryn and Nik reached out in early 2020. They were planning for a December of 2020 wedding in Sayulita and we couldn’t be more excited. Of course that was back when things were normal. As COVID became more serious Lauryn and Nik had to make the decision to postpone and rescheduled for the same weekend one year later. In the mean time, Lauryn and I met for a drink and talked all things wedding. Even though things are not even close to normal - it was well worth the wait.
Engagement Session at Lookout Mountain
We decided on Lookout Mountain in Golden and had zero regrets. Jenny and Ben read letters to each other and we ended with a Champagne spray and some fun lanterns. Can’t wait for your big day in April!
Brandice + Joel elope in Pagosa Springs
It was peak season for leaves and they rented a house big enough for all of us. We had the best time - scouting the day before and cooking together. Brandice is a florist and owns her company Birch and Bramble Co so the living room was full of flowers she had brought up to build her own bouquet.
How To Prepare For Headshots or Senior Portraits
Head Shots should be updated once a year.
Alex + Logan | Engagement Adventure session at Lake Isabelle
Alex and Logan could not be a better fit. It’s like there are people (like me) who love going on a fun hike here and there and then there are people who wake up at 5am regularly and hike 8 mile hikes. Alex and Logan are the later and I am obsessed with how this session went and the chemistry these two have.
Whitney + Tyler | Engagement Session at the Sand Dunes
I would say that the Sand Dunes is one of the most magical places. To be surrounded by sand at sunset and see the mountains on one side - the moon rising. Everything seems right in the world. So when a couple is down for the drive - we can’t wait to explore the National Park with them. Whitney and Tyler’s love was super easy to capture and we had to best time romping around the dunes.
Styled Shoot with Jo and Seq
It was so fun to attend this content day by Sierra (@vowsontherun) and meet this lovely couple - @j0lena_ and @seq0_ - thanks for being awesome models in this “Vegas inspired, day-after-the-wedding” styled shoot!
Morgan + Jared | Acre Baja
Obsessed with everything about this bohemian Mexico Destination wedding at Acre Baja!
Bryan + Lauren | Santa Barbara
Bryan and Lauren drove up with their closest friends and family to Santa Barbara from L.A. to celebrate their love. If you have been to Santa Barbara you know it is a magical place and even more magical at the Dos Pueblos Orchid Farm. They had their first look in a green house amongst a few goats and chickens before heading out to say their vows on the cliffs where you could smell the ocean.
Making Inclusivity and Diversity a priority
I am a business that commits to being a safe space and seeks to include and advocate for all identities and cultures within wedding photography and engagement services. I commit to doing my best when it comes to recommending vendors who are also aligned with these values. It’s important for businesses to be transparent and make a stance on these issues. If you have any questions or would like to have a conversation please don’t hesitate to reach out.
How to prepare for your Maternity Session!
First of all - CONGRATULATIONS! There is so much to prepare for when having a baby and the last thing you want is another list of things to do. So know if this feels overwhelming, just skip on ahead to number 8 - just showing up. You do not need the perfect outfit or backdrop - you just need to be you.
Porch Sessions!
Something I did more of in 2020 was PORCH SESSIONS! Such a fun and safe way to capture this unique time in our lives.

Engagement Session in Telluride
This “session” had some advantages in the fact that we got to spend a whole day together. If I could do this every couple I would.
