Tasia and Bernie | Engaged

Jessica — Fri, 18 May 2012 22:02:30 +0000

We met Tasia and Bernie about a month ago for their engagement session down in Larkspur, CO. They’d spent the entire morning scoping out the perfect spots in Larkspur to act as the backdrops for their engagement pictures…and they could not have done a better job! They definitely made out job super easy and we had so much fun following them around and off-roading to the perfect places…we could have shot out there all night! Tasia and Bernie’s love for each other is obvious. The way they hold each other…the way they smile at each other and make one another laugh. Surely they’re made for each other! Here are some of our favorites from their session…enjoy! :)

Tasia and Bernie – Congratulations, again! We feel so fortunate to capture these moments for you both and we wish you the best of luck!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Kelly and Scotty | Engaged

Jessica — Sat, 21 Apr 2012 00:37:28 +0000

Vail Village and the Colorado mountains were the perfect backdrop for Kelly and Scotty’s destination engagement session! This Florida couple loves skiing so much that they actually have local Epic Ski passes and try to come back to Colorado for 1 – 2 weeks during the winter. So we were so excited that we were able to squeeze in an engagement session for them while they were out for their little ski vacation in the Colorado mountains. After spending the afternoon with these two, we’re definitely bummed that we’ll miss the wedding this December! It sounds like it is going to be quite the party back in their home state of Alabama! Can’t wait to see some of the pictures of everything that they’re planning!

Congratulations, Kelly and Scotty! We loved getting to spend a couple of hours getting to hear more about your love story and capturing these moments for you both. Plus – your accents were adorable…we could’ve listened to you speak all day! :)

Here are a few of our favorites from their session…enjoy! Oh – and special thanks to Janine Gelsinger (Makeup by Janine) for driving up to the mountains to make Kelly look extra beautiful! Those bright red lips made the whole session! :)

Congratulations, Kelly and Scotty! We wish you the best of luck and be sure to look us up when you come back to Colorado!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Sara and Brent | Engaged

Jessica — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 19:09:38 +0000

Her father specifically told her…”Don’t move to Australia and fall in love with an Aussie.” She didn’t listen. :) We officially met Sara (and her lovely mother, Gayle) over the holidays – while she was back in Colorado finishing up some last minute wedding details. We knew that she was going to be so much fun to work with – and when we finally got to meet Brent the week before their wedding – it was easy to see that they were meant for each other. Two of a kind – completely at ease with each other – united with the same adventurous, warm spirit.

The whirlwind of a week that led up to their big day is not one they’ll forget soon…and decidedly one that their friends will laugh about for many years to come! Just days before Sara and Brent said “I Do” they took several friends and family members for a snowshoe/hut trip in the Colorado mountains…and ended up getting slightly lost. (Turned out they were only a few hundred yards from where they needed to be…but I’m sure that their family and friends were cursing the day that they agreed to such a thing!) Everything ended up being just fine…and the story will be one that they’ll continue to tell for many, many years.

To me…it’s the perfect representation of the right attitude to have towards a wedding. Inevitably…something will end up not going as planned. But as Sara and Brent said…”It doesn’t matter. At the end of the day you’re still marrying your best friend!” What could be more perfect than that?!? Many more pictures from their February wedding up at the Boettcher Mansion coming soon – but here are a few of Sara and Brent’s engagement pictures…enjoy!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Ann and Ryan | Engaged

Jessica — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 23:23:36 +0000

So…is it just me? Or have you noticed that there are a lot of Iowans living out here in Colorado, too?!? And do they all seem to know each other?!? :) But seriously…there are a lot! No complaints here though – every single one that I’ve met have been equally hilarious and nice! So when my sister – and her now fiance, Nick – heard that Ann and Ryan were getting married we were really excited to meet them (and secretly wishing that they’d want us to be the photographers!) After meeting the two of them – we knew it was going to be one heck of a good time!

It seems like so long ago that we photographed Ann and Ryan’s engagement session up in the Colorado mountains. It’s been a pretty mild winter out here in Colorado – and sadly, there isn’t much snow left! But there was still plenty of snow last month when we met them at the top of Loveland Pass. We had so much fun laughing and tromping through the snow with these two and we can’t wait for their wedding this June in Galena, IL and Dubuque, IA! Here are some of our favorites from their session…enjoy!

The view from Loveland Pass is truly spectacular – you really feel like you’re on top of the world.

They laugh a lot…and we LOVE that! :)

How gorgeous is Ann?!? :)

I promise – no one was injured while shooting this action shot of them skiing. Although it does look like their about to fall off the mountain if you ask me!

After shooting on Loveland Pass for a bit, we headed down around Lake Dillon for some more pictures…not a bad view here either!

Then we made our way to Frisco for a few more pictures in town…I love the light on these couple…

Who wouldn’t want their engagement pictures in front of the Frisco Psychic? :) This series makes up many of my favorites!

We found an old shed to add a bit of a rustic feel…

I always love shoe shots…just can’t help myself! :)

Congratulations, Ann and Ryan! We are so happy that you found us through your IA family out here in Colorado and we can’t wait for your big day! :)

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Tanya and Patrick | Engaged

Jessica — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 17:16:55 +0000

We’ve absolutely loved being able to photograph the weddings of so many friends and family members over the past 6 years! And we can pretty easily say that we wouldn’t be where we are today without their love, encouragement and trust…so when Andrew’s cousin Tanya got engaged, we definitely hoped that we would get to be there to take the pictures! We were both so excited when we heard that Patrick had proposed…in Disneyland none the less! It’s been far too long since we’ve had a wedding in the Schaefer family (the last one was our own – nearly 7 years ago)…so we’re already counting down the days for their wedding this June in Arizona.

We met Tanya and Patrick (along with many more members of the giant Schaefer clan) in Las Vegas in January. We headed out for some fun, vintage-inspired engagement pictures at the Neon Museum during the day – and wrapped up with a few pictures on the Las Vegas Strip at night. We had such a great time and we can’t wait for the wedding!

Here are a few (a lot) of our favorites…enjoy! :)

Tanya and Patrick – Congrats again! We are so happy and excited for you and we’re looking forward to the many adventures that life brings your way!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Just a little sneak peek of Tanya and Patrick’s engagement session in Las Vegas – check back tomorrow for more! :)

Kaitlin and Tj | Engaged

Jessica — Sun, 26 Feb 2012 00:03:05 +0000

We love spending time in the Colorado mountains…even if only for a few hours! So when Kaitlin and Tj contacted us about doing an engagement session up in the Rocky Mountains…we couldn’t resist! Kaitlin and Tj are getting married in Lancaster, Pennsylvania…and we had such a great time shooting their engagement session that we wish we could go to their rustic-inspired farm wedding – it’s sure to be an amazing time! We met Kaitlin and Tj on the top of Loveland Pass – if you’ve never been up there you should definitely go…it feels like you’re on the top of the world and the views are spectacular! Here are a few of our favorites from their session…enjoy!

Love the look of the fence in this one…

Kaitlin – you are crazy beautiful! I love the picture on the right…

It was a little (okay…a lot) windy and a bit cold – but they were such troopers! :)

I adore this sequence of them walking…

There’s Boomer…Kaitlin and Tj’s cute pup…

I like the picture with Boomer looking back at the two of them…pretty cute!

Gorgeous…

We headed into Breckenridge for a few more photos…

Tj patiently waited until the end of the session to wear his hat (something he rarely goes without) so we made sure to get a few shots with the hats too! Super cute! :)

Kaitlin and Tj – Congrats again! We feel so fortunate that we were able to meet you while you were out in Breck and we can’t wait to see some of the pictures from the wedding!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Kelsey and Chris | Engaged

Jessica — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 22:35:35 +0000

So clearly we are WAY behind on blogging…but if you know anything about Andrew and I, it’s that we love Christmas! I mean, we really love Christmas…to the point that we have a Christmas countdown on our computer year-round. It’s 312 days away…just in case you were wondering! :) So we apologize for our slacking in the blogging department…we’ve got a lot of catching up to do! But we figured there wouldn’t be any better place than to start back up with Kelsey and Chris’ adorable engagement session in Vail, CO during the holidays.

We love when we meet with a couple and instantly know that we want to work with them; and that’s exactly how we felt meeting Kelsey and Chris. They are getting married at the Vail Cascade in September of this year and we are very excited for their day! Here are a few of our favorites from their session…enjoy! :)

Luckily the weather was great (if not very cold, but nothing some hot chocolate couldn’t cure.)

Kelsey has such a great smile!

The jackets had to go on for a few pictures. We were wearing our black puffy jackets so we were just fine.

HA! “It’s Santa…I know him!” For some reason that’s all I hear when I look at the picture on the right! :)

A few of my favorites…

The covered bridge…

These are two of my favorite images. Somehow we made it look like Vail was empty that day, but it definitely wasn’t.

A few at the very bottom of the mountain…thanks to the strangers that let us borrow their skis for our pictures! :)

Love all the color of everyone’s skiing outfits in the background.

Thanks to Julie of Bliss Elevated for putting us in contact with Kelsey and Chris!

Much Love,

Jessica (and Andrew too!)

Beth and Shawn | Engaged

Jessica — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 01:35:35 +0000

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!)

Corrie and Scott | Engaged

Jessica — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 00:47:02 +0000

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!)
