So get this…Beth and Shawn met at a wedding that we photographed!  In fact, Beth was a bridesmaid at the wedding.  How sweet is that?!?  And of course we were even more excited when Cassie and Nate passed our names along to these two when they started planning their wedding.  Heck, that’s the best compliment we can get! :)  We were certainly looking forward to officially meeting them while they were out in Colorado around the Holidays.  Their idea for the perfect engagement session…open fields of a snow!  We found the perfect location up in Evergreen and it even began to snow towards the end of the session…perfect!  Here are a few of our favorites…

Beth and Shawn – we are so excited that we get to work with you and we can’t wait for your wedding in August!

Congratulations, Beth and Shawn!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

We are getting super excited over here for Corrie and Scott’s wedding this weekend up at the Boettcher Mansion!  We knew this Seattle couple would be a ton of fun to work with…and we had such a blast with them while they were out for Thanksgiving!  We headed out to Cheeseman Park for a few shots and then ventured over to Larimer Square to warm up with some Starbucks and to take a couple more photos at night.  Here are a few of our favorites from their engagement session…and be sure to check back soon for some of the picture from their winter wedding!

Corrie and Scott – we’ll see you in a couple of days!  YAY! :)

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

The Holidays are almost here and it seems like we’ve been flying around like crazy…trying to get everything finished!  I’m happy to announce that I’m done with all of my shopping, baking and wrapping!  (Imagine me wiping my brow.)  I finally had a chance to sit down and get Mandy and Kevin’s blog post up too!  Hey…look at me go! :)

When we first met Mandy and Kevin over some delicious ice cream we knew that they were going to be a blast to work with…so we were definitely excited to see them again for their engagement session about a month ago!  We headed down to Parker for a fun evening of shooting, wind (quite miserable wind actually…but they were total troopers), lots of laughter, yummy food and a wonder dog named Finn!  We had such a great time with these two and we are so excited for their wedding next September at the Canyon Wind Cellars in Palisade, CO.  Can’t wait!  Here are our favorites from the day…enjoy! :)

Congrats, you two!  We are really looking forward to September! :)

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

We’ve been busy little bees over here…editing away at weddings and engagement sessions.  So we’ll have plenty to share over the next couple of weeks.  But today it’s Andrea and Dave’s turn!  After meeting Andrea and Dave for the first time a few weeks ago…we knew that they were a good fit for us!  They are fun and easy-going…full of laughter and so obviously in love!  We had such a great time with them last week during their engagement session.  We headed to the park where they first met.  It happened by chance, but if you ask me it must have been fate.  She was walking her dog…he was walking his dog (all I picture is 101 Dalmations, with the dogs tangling the two of them up in the leashes!)  We can’t wait for their wedding next July at the Greenbriar Inn!  Here are some of our favorites…

Love these two…

Aren’t they the cutest couple?!?

Andrea looks absolutely gorgeous in this one!

We set up a little picnic in the gorgeous light in the middle of the park…

Love their picnic basket!  Great find guys! :)

One of my favorites from the day…

The two that introduced them…her puppy, Chia and his puppy, Dante.

A few fun shots by a VW that we found…

We headed to Wash Park for a few more photos that night.  The one on the left cracks me up! :)

Congratulations, Andrea and Dave!  We are so glad that we’ll get to be there with you in July…can’t wait! :)

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Why are kids so cute?!?  When my good friend Terra announced that she and her husband, Matt were having twins last year…I was beyond excited!  I think I’ve known Terra for about 12 years.  She’s been there for nearly every life-changing and important part of both my sister’s and my life…and I can’t imagine her not being there for all of the important things to come!  I finally got to meet Grayson and Finley last weekend…as Terra made the trip with the twins (with Grandma’s help!) back to Colorado for a visit.  They are just as adorable as I expected…if not more!  Grayson is a mini-version of his daddy, Matt…laid-back and easy-going.  And Finley looks just like her momma (with the exception of her blue eyes)…but her personality reminds me of Terra.  Look out! :)

I only got to spend a few hours with them, but I feel oh so fortunate to have been able to capture some memories of the twins’ first trip to Colorado.  They’re nearly one year old and I can’t wait to see where this life takes them!  Congratulations, Terra and Matt!  Grayson and Finley are simply amazing and I can’t wait for you to come back soon!!!

Meet Grayson…

And his sister Finley…(Those eyes kill me!)

Grayson is already quite the flirt!  Watch out ladies!

Walking with Mom and Grandma…

So happy…

Grayson was cracking me up in these pictures.  He looks like such a little old man in that shirt! :)  Love it!

Finley was having fun sorting all of the leaves into different piles.

Congrats, Terra and Matt!  Thanks so much for letting me take pictures of the two newest members of your family!

Much Love,

Jessica

Occasionally Andrew and I will get an inquiry from a couple seeking to have engagement pictures taken locally.  Typically they are getting married out of state and just want to have some pictures taken in Colorado.  We’re always a bit anxious as we drive to the shoot.  After all, we’ve never met the couple and we really never know what to fully expect.  It always turns out just fine…and we always walk away from the engagement sessions saying “Dang, wish we could shoot the wedding!”

This was exactly the case with Brigid and Patrick.  They are getting married in New York next month, but wanted some engagement pictures in their hometown of Boulder…a place that reflects them at this time in their lives.  They had the best idea for a location for the shoot!  Their home overlooks a real-life working farm, complete with chickens, cows and peacocks…yes, peacocks (apparently they scare away the coyotes).  So Brigid and Patrick got up the courage to ask the property’s owners if it would be alright to take some pictures on their land, and we’re so happy that they said yes!  It was so much fun shooting around the animals, hay and barns…we could have stayed and photographed there all night!

Brigid and Patrick – Thank you so much for opening your lives to us, even if only for a brief moment.  You’re absolutely adorable together and we’re so happy that everything worked out.  We wish you the absolute best and be sure to send us a link to some of the wedding pictures…and yes, we really do wish we could be there!  :)

Kind of a funny moment.  While shooting around the property we all looked up to our car and saw one of the peacocks on the hood.  He left a nice present on there for us too! :)

Congratulations, Brigid and Patrick!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

We can’t wait for Stacey and Sean’s wedding coming up this October at the Boettcher Mansion in Golden!  If it’s anything like last Friday night when we got together for their engagement session in downtown Denver…it’s sure to be a heck of a good time!  Congratulations, you two…can’t wait for the wedding! :)  Here are a few of our favorites…

Stacey has the most incredible blue eyes.  She’s going to be one gorgeous bride!

I love the way Sean is looking at her in this one…

Aren’t they so cute together?!?

I love the lines in these two…

After grabbing some dinner we headed back out for a few more photos in the dark!

Congratulations, Stacey and Sean!  We are so excited to be working with you both and we can’t wait for the wedding!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

It’s been a little over a year since we first photographed little Owen and his parents Brian and Amber.  With the new addition of baby Adalyn to the family it was definitely time to get together again for some more pictures of the Berenz family.  We had such a wonderful evening playing and exploring with Owen and Adalyn and we can’t wait for next year!  Here are a few of our favorites from their portrait session…enjoy!

You might remember Owen (and his spectacular hair) from last year.  His hair has calmed down…but he’s still as cute as ever!

I love this one of Amber and baby Addie…

Grandpa and Grandma joined in for a few pictures too!

Hello blue eyes!

Owen helping Grandpa with his bag of golf clubs…

Daddy helping Owen with his swing…he was amazing already!

One of my favorites of Owen…

Three generations of Berenz boys…

Isn’t Adalyn gorgeous?!?

I love these with Grandma and Addie…

This one makes me smile! :)

Addie with Grandpa…

And a few portraits of Brian and Amber…

Brian and Amber – thanks so much for bringing us back to photograph your growing family!  Owen and Adalyn really are two of the cutest kids around and we can’t wait to see you all again next year!

Much Gratitude,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

They met in Vegas.  I know, right?  :)  She was there for business, he was there for pleasure…and I’m pretty sure neither of them expected to find the love of their life on a trip to Vegas…but they did!  They were married this week and promised their families that they’d get some pictures taken after the fact…and we’re sure glad they called us!  We met Brittany and Josh on Wednesday in downtown Denver for a few fun portraits.  We had such a great time with Brittany and Josh and we couldn’t be more happy and excited for them!

Brittany and Josh – Thanks so much for inviting us into your lives, even if for only a brief moment!  And of course, thank you for the sacrifices that you’ll both be making for our country in the year to come.  If it weren’t for brave men and women like you Josh, this place wouldn’t be the same!  And Brittany, I imagine a lot of what will keep him staying strong during his deployment is knowing that he’ll be coming home to his loving wife!  Stay safe out there and hurry home…to DENVER that is!  :)

Much Gratitude,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)
