I’ve been so excited to share highlights from Kelly & Peter’s elegant November wedding at the Sanctuary Golf Course. Kelly was absolutely radiant, such a stunning bride.  And Peter looked dashing in his military dress blues.  I love how they light up around each other -  and their story is so romantic.. fates aligned to bring them together, meeting initially in Egypt, and then again in Washington DC. It was such a joy to be a part of capturing their day and I am so grateful. Huge thanks to CC from Colorado Wedding Company for introducing us. A few favorites..

I’ve got the most amazing clients – I know I say that all the time, but only because it’s true :) And working with Katy & Aaron has been an absolute dream. They are such wonderful people – sweet and fun, natural and down-to-earth. They love to travel, and they love the outdoors. Their wedding day at Keystone Ranch was a perfect reflection of them – heartfelt and emotional, and full of love and warmth.  A few favorites..

Torie & Matt tied the knot on a gorgeous September day during an emotional and heartfelt wedding ceremony at Keystone Ranch. It was a day surrounded by family and friends, full of love  and joy and infectious laughter. Simply perfect. Everything about this day was dreamy – from the incredible couple (so down-to-earth and fun to work with) to the spectacular Colorado mountain backdrop (ah-mazing views) to the vintage elements incorporated in to the wedding decor (burlap accents and cobalt blue, vintage suitcases and birdcages – ♥). It was an incredible event, coordinated to perfection by Josh at Bella Design and Planning, and such an honor to be a part of. A few faves..

One of my favorite parts of the day is the getting ready preparations – moments full of anticipation and excitement.. here are a few sweet moment between Torie and her momgorgeous vibrant Colorado mountain wedding details groomsmen puddle reflection and the perfect Colorado bluebird sky with the bride and groom in silhouette♥ love ♥
