Kelly and Keith’s Keystone mountain wedding was absolutely stunning.  Filled with gorgeous details of red, orange and touches of purple…Kelly and Keith’s wedding was a photographers dream.  Nestled at the top of the ski slopes on Keystone mountain, Kelly and Keith said “I do” amongst their closest friends and family at Timber Ridge Lodge.  Kerri Butler with A Touch of Bliss did a phenomenal job bringing Kelly and Keith’s amazing vision to reality and helped to ensure that the entire day went on without a hitch.  Andrew and I feel so lucky to have been a part of their very special day.  Here are a few of our favorites…enjoy!

I adored Kelly’s red shoes!  The purse on the right was the purse that Kelly’s mother used on her wedding day…love that!

Lisa Anderson with Sweet Pea Flowers did a fantastic job with all of the flowers for the wedding.  I loved the bright red bridal bouquet.  Monochromatic can look so amazing!

Andrew’s angle of Keith seeing his stunning bride for the first time.

My angle…

Love the intensity of Kelly’s expression as she’s looking at Keith.  They are so obviously in love, right?!?

There was just a slight sprinkle as the ceremony began, but about half way through the skies opened up and the sun came out!

Kelly might be the cutest, most excited bride!  She has the most infectious smile and laugh…you just can’t help but to love being in her company.  Keith, you are one lucky fella! :)

I love this picture of Keith making the phone call home to his Dad to tell him that “the deed was done.”

More amazing flowers by Sweet Pea…

Timber Ridge was transformed into an absolutely beautiful reception venue…

I loved this detail…instead of writing “steak” or “chicken” on each name card, each card had either a picture of a cow or a chicken printed in the corner.  So cute!

Pink Monkey Solutions did an amazing job with the lighting for the reception.  They also installed these amazing colorful paper lanterns and the cozy lounge seen below.

In lieu of a guest book, Kelly and Keith had their guests sign congratulatory notes on an antique pair of skis!

Gorgeous rings…

More details…

After dinner, we brought Kelly and Keith back outside for a few more portraits.  I love this one of their shoes…

It wouldn’t be a Colorado mountain wedding without an old ski lift chair!  One of my favorites on the left of the two laughing (I’m sure it was at something stupid that Andrew said!) :)

The stormy rain clouds looked really cool with a little off camera flash…

The send-off…

A huge thanks to Kerri Butler with A Touch of Bliss and all of the other vendors that helped to make Kelly and Keith’s wedding day spectacular!

Kelly and Keith – Congratulations!  We are so very happy and excited for you!  We wish you the best – always.

Much Love ~ Jessica (and Andrew too!)

They met for the first time through a mutual friend in Atlanta.  Six months later, her number still remained in his phone…though he never once dialed.  For some reason he couldn’t find it in himself to get rid of that one number.  Luck (or fate) would bring them to the same place again at an Atlanta Braves game – and now in a little over two weeks Rebecca and Adam will tie the knot surrounded by their closest friends and family at the Boettcher Mansion in Golden, Colorado!

We met Rebecca and Adam up at Chautauqua Park in Bouder last Monday for a few rustic, Colorado mountain engagement pictures before heading into town for a more urban feel.  When we first met them back in February, we knew instantly that they were going to be so much fun to work with.  Sarcastic, excited, funny and fun-loving – that’s just our type!  We had such a blast shooting their engagement pictures and we can’t wait for the wedding…here are a few of our favorites from their session.  Leave us a comment and let us know what you think!

Oh – and did I mention that they should both be models?  It doesn’t hurt when your couples are so good looking! :)

Love, love, love this one…

So sweet…

Thank you for not braking your ankle for these shots…although I do like the way they turned out!

In town…

Gotta love some color…

Can’t wait for the wedding!  See you both soon!

Hugs – Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Andrew and I were so excited that one of our gorgeous brides, Cassie was featured in the Fashion & Beauty section of the Fall/Winter issue of Brides Colorado Magazine.  Cassie’s bold, beautiful and colorful choices made her and Nate’s wedding truly unique and fabulous!  Congratulations, Cassie! :)

Meet Ellie and Jeff!  They currently live in New Hampshire, but we were able to fit in an engagement session during their most recent trip to Denver.  Actually…the night before the two celebrated their bachelor and bachelorette parties with some of their local friends…but they were total troopers as we tromped around downtown Denver for their urban engagement pictures!  We can’t wait for their wedding next month at the Riverfront Park and Oxford Hotel…it’s going to be awesome!  Here are a few of our favorites from their session…enjoy!

Ellie and Jeff – We can’t wait until 10.10.10 – see you next month! :)

Take Care ~ Jessica (and Andrew too!)

A couple of weekends ago we met Julia and Luke for some relaxed Colorado mountain engagement pictures.  We started at the top of Berthoud Pass with some spectacular views of the gorgeous Colorado mountains and then headed up to the top of the mountain at Winter Park.  Julia and Luke are getting married next summer at the Meadows of Marshdale and are having their reception at the Evergreen Lake House.  We can’t wait for their wedding…it’s going to be a fun one!  Here are a few of our favorites from their session…enjoy!

Julia and Luke’s adorable pup Hailey came along for some camera time.  She did a great job!

I love when our couples make each other laugh…it makes our job way easier!

Hailey almost looks like she’s smiling in the photo on the left…too cute!

We headed up to the top of the mountain at Winter Park for a few more photos.  I love this picture of Julia and Luke as we were traveling up the chair lift.

And of course, Winter Park was purely spectacular with views of the mountains as far as you could see…

Love this sequence…

Julia and Luke – We can’t wait for next June!  It’s going to be a blast!

Take Care – Jessica (and Andrew too)

A couple of weekends ago Andrew and I photographed Katie and Troy’s gorgeous vintage-inspired wedding at the Lakewood Country Club.  The day was filled with amazing details thanks in part to Kerri Butler with A Touch of Bliss and Katie and Troy’s exceptional LA taste!  We had such a great time photographing Katie and Troy…here are a few bunch of our favorites from the day.  Enjoy and be sure to leave a comment and let us know what you think!

The couple spent the morning relaxing and getting ready for the big day at the Westin Tabor Center in downtown Denver.  Katie’s gorgeous Christian Louboutin shoes paired with her handmade purse were to die for!

Janine Schmenk of Makeup by Janine did a fabulous job with all of the girls makeup…Katie looked gorgeous!

Katie is an animal-lover…so her family pets made an appearance before she got into her wedding gown.

Katie’s “something borrowed” was a stunning pair of Harry Winston diamond earrings that belong to her sister-in-law.

Troy and all of the groomsmen wore Converse shoes with their gray suits!

A special moment between mother and daughter…

I loved Troy’s expression when he saw Katie for the first time…

They did it!

I love this moment of the two of them as they were walking back down the aisle…

The whole wedding party…

The groomsmen looked awesome in their gray suits and pastel-colored ties, but were not to be outdone by the gorgeous bridesmaids in their mint-colored dresses.

One of my absolute favorites from the day…the picture of Katie on the left.

So flippin’ cute together…

This was a funny moment between Katie and Andrew.  Andrew was instructing her to place her hand with the bouquet down at her side, but instead he said to “drop the bouquet” to her side.  Well, Katie took him literally and she threw her bouquet on the ground…it was pretty funny!

The ballroom at the Lakewood Country Club was stunning with touches of citrus all over the place.  Heidi with the Swiss Flower and Gift Cottage did a fantastic job with all of the flowers for the day!

Katie and Troy are both vegan…so the dinner and dessert served at the reception was entirely vegan!  It looked delicious!

Denver Design Works did a fantastic job with all of the lighting and decor for the room.  The hanging flowers and candles made the dance floor really beautiful…

Katie and Troy danced the night away…

A huge thanks to Kerri and Bridget with a Touch of Bliss for all of their hard work during the day!  Everything turned out amazingly!

Katie and Troy – Congratulations!  We are so happy and excited for you.  Thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your very special day.  It was such a great pleasure to work with you both and we can’t wait to see where this life takes you!  Best wishes!

Hugs ~ Jessica (and Andrew too!)

This weekend Andrew and I had the great pleasure of photographing Katie and Troy’s fabulous wedding at the Lakewood Country Club.  We first met Katie and Troy in LA for their West Hollywood engagement session…and we knew automatically upon meeting them that they were going to be so much fun to work with!  Their amazing sense of style paired with their undeniable love and gratitude for each other made Katie and Troy’s wedding day nothing short of spectacular.  Here are just a few sneak peek pictures…check back later for more photos from Katie and Troy’s big day.

Ta Ta for now!

A couple of weekends ago Andrew and I headed down to Black Forest, CO – just outside of Colorado Springs for Sarah and Matthias’ wedding.  The entire day fit them to a tee…fun-loving, relaxed and laid back.  Sarah and Matthias live in Germany, so they celebrated their first wedding back in May in Minden…surrounded by Matthias’ wonderful family.  Sarah and Matthias decided to celebrate their American wedding at the beautiful La Foret Conference and Retreat Center.  Andrew and I had such a great time photographing these two…and we feel so grateful to have been part of their very special day.  Here are a few of our favorites from the day…enjoy!

Of course Sarah and Matthias had to represent with the German flag!

Sarah chose these shoes partly because of the name, Eloise – the name of her grandmother.

Sarah and Matthias roasted s’mores the night before with their guests…so we pulled a few of the ingredients for this ring shot.  Yum!

Lisa Anderson with Sweet Pea Flowers did a fantastic job (as always) with all of the flowers for the day.

A few finishing touches…

Sarah and Matthias’ ceremony was held at the Taylor Memorial Chapel on the La Foret grounds…it was such a cool little chapel.

Sarah’s sister carried a candle in remembrance of their grandmother down the aisle and placed it on the altar.  It was a beautiful way to pay tribute to a very special member of their family.

I love the way Sarah is looking at Matthias in this picture.

A few of their portraits…

Their reception was held at the Ponderosa Lodge on the La Foret grounds.  Ponderosa was a warm, rustic, log-cabin feeling lodge…it was gorgeous!

As favors for their guests, Sarah and Matthias created these picture holders.  The faces of the cube were covered with pictures of Sarah and Matthias in different locations around the world…and the bottom showed their two wedding dates!  Very cool idea!

I snagged this one as Andrew was taking the group shot from above…love the German flag again!

Many of Sarah’s closest friends came from all over the country to La Foret for the wedding…

As the reception was starting, Sarah and Matthias told the story of how they met in the form of a poem…it was adorable.

Sarah surprised Matthias with red balloons falling from the ceiling during the famous song “99 Red Balloons.”

Sarah and Matthias – it was such a great pleasure to work with both of you!  We feel so fortunate to have been part of your very special day.  Have a safe trip back to Germany and keep in touch!

Take Care – Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Last week Andrew and I headed out in downtown Denver to shoot some portraits for my cousin Scott and his wife Ashley.  Scott and Ashley just celebrated their 5th anniversary so it was the perfect timing for some new pictures of the two of them!  Their fun, playful nature certainly made them easy to photograph too!  Here are a few of our favorites from their session…enjoy!

So stinkin’ cute…

Ashley…you are seriously gorgeous!

Looking bad a*@ on the left…

Scott and Ashley – Congratulations of reaching 5 years!  Here’s to many more years of wedded bliss!

Love – Jessica (and Andrew too!)
