Mikaela and Robert's wedding at the historic Robison Mansion in Canon city was such a perfect way to start the 2018 wedding season! The full highlight video will be ready in the next couple of weeks, but we couldn't wait to show off some of the footage, so we put together a quick wedding video preview!
Zoe and Aaron - Wedding Highlights
Of all the weddings that we've had the privilege of shooting this summer, this one was perhaps the most light hearted, playful and downright fun of the bunch! From the convoy of bicycle taxis that the bride and her bridesmaids took through downtown to get from their hotel to the venue, to the colorfully lit rooftop dance party, to ending the night with bowling and midnight pizza, this group knew how to have a good time together.
Zoe and Aaron's wedding took place on the rooftop of the Denver Athletic Club, which is centrally located in downtown Denver. A rooftop gathering was the perfect way to take advantage of the warm summer evening, surrounded by the lights of the sky scrapers.
Zoe and Aaron were both so sweet and welcoming that it felt more like we were at the wedding of some long-time friends. Congratulations you two! Thanks for bringing us on board to help capture the start of your new chapter together.
Amber and Jonathan - Wedding Highlights
This week, I'm very excited to share Amber and Jonathan's gorgeous wedding at The Pines at Genessee. One of the best things about shooting weddings in Denver is the number of incredible venues that are just a few minutes outside of the city. The Genessee area is unique in that to the west, you have amazing views of snow capped mountains, and to the east, rolling green foothills and Denver on the horizon. Because it was a morning/early afternoon wedding, we had time to go shoot timelapses and drone footage in the area after the main events of the wedding wrapped up, and it wound up being some of my favorite scenery footage of the season.
We had an absolute blast shooting this wedding. Amber and Jonathan were both incredibly sweet and genuine, and the whole day was such a beautiful expression of their love. We felt truly honored to be a part of these special moments and to help capture them.
Congratulations Amber and Jonathan!
Jill and Sam - Wedding Highlight Video
I am so excited to be able to finally share this wedding video! Before I even loaded the footage for this wedding in to my computer to pull together the preview, I knew this video was going to be something special. The location, the day, the couple, the amazing flower arrangements put together by the mother of the bride, and the awesome first dance were all too perfect for it to not be a spectacular video.
One of the "x factors" that can really make a wedding video spectacular is willingness from the bride and grooms (and wedding party) to go the extra mile to get cool shots. Sam and Jill may take home the all time gold medal in that category. Thank you Jill and Sam for being such good sports all day and giving us the time and freedom to capture amazing footage! This wedding was an absolute joy to shoot and edit, and we are so grateful to have been a part of your wedding day. Congratulations!
Jacilyn and Jake - Wedding Highlight Video
I posted the preview for this wedding a few weeks ago, and I'm so excited to share the final wedding video!
Jacilyn and Jake's wedding in Vail was the quintessential Colorado mountain wedding. The entire day looked and felt pulled from the pages of a bridal magazine. Every little detail of the wedding was crafted with with incredible attention to detail, and the total result was breathtaking. The location, the floral arrangements, and even the dinner (elk hunted by the bride!) were all wonderful.
First and foremost, I want to give a shout out to the artists over at Vintage Magnolia Florists. We see a lot of bouquets, boutonnieres and floral arrangements, and the flowers for this wedding were some of my all time favorites. The ceremony took place on the lawn at The Larkspur, with Vail's iconic view of the Gore range in full glory behind the couple, and the reception was at the Donovan Pavilion, which is one of my favorite reception venues in Colorado. Photography was by Click and Pedal. Catering was by Gourmet Cowboy.
This video was such a joy to film, and Jacilyn and Jake were incredible to work with. I am so grateful to have gotten to capture such a beautiful wedding, and I wish the couple a lifetime of happiness!
Bixby and Jason - Wedding Video Preview
The Denver Botanic Gardens has been one of my favorite places ever since I first moved down to Denver for college in 2006, and it is one of the best places in Denver to have a wedding. I've been hoping to get to shoot a wedding there since I first started up my business, and Bixby and Jason's wedding was an amazing way to cross it off of my venue wishlist.
The day itself was a bit rainy and grey, but Bixby and Jason didn't let that phase them at all, and it made for an absolutely gorgeous, romantic first look at the Botanic Garden's Monet Garden. It's such an honor getting to share in moments like this with the couples whose weddings we capture and it is so much fun to get to watch the joy and elation on couples' faces the first time they see each other.
Congratulations Bixby and Jason! Thanks for letting us be a part of your wedding day!
Caitlyn and Matthew Wedding Preview
The 2017 summer wedding season is in full swing, and we couldn't have possibly kicked off with a better wedding. Mount Princeton Hot Springs Resort outside Buena Vista Colorado has been one of my "bucket list" locations ever since I started my company, and I've been looking forward to this wedding ever since the bride contacted me last fall. The chalk cliffs are such a stunning backdrop for a wedding, and the weather played along perfectly. After days of rain on the front range, and a blizzard on the drive out from Denver, we were so pleased to have a pure blue Colorado sky for the wedding day.
Caitlyn and Matthew were a fantastic couple to work with. We wish them nothing but the absolute best in their life together!
Ali and Kelton Wedding Highlights
Last month I posted the preview for this wedding, and I'm so excited to be able to share the final video. Ali and Kelton had the absolute perfect Colorado winter wedding up in Winter Park. It was a clear blue sky day, with a frigid -10 degree morning that got warm enough for us to actually take the bride and groom out for some couples photos and video in the afternoon.
Thanks for letting me capture your awesome wedding Ali and Kelton! Congratulations!
Ali and Kelton Wedding Preview
I absolutely love shooting winter weddings in Colorado. I grew up in the mountains, and winter is my absolute favorite time of year. Snow, blue skies, bare aspens and evergreens make for such a perfect, romantic backdrop for a wedding, and make for beautiful video. I was overjoyed when Ali and Kelton contacted me this summer, asking me to shoot their wedding at Devil's Thumb Ranch between Christmas and New Years. The day, the venue and the couple couldn't have been more perfect. I can't wait to edit their highlight video!
Katie and AK Wedding Highlights
Words cannot express how much of a joy it was to shoot and edit Katie and AK's Wedding Video. Few couples I've ever worked with have shown the level of sheer, unabashed joy and excitement that this couple showed. That atmosphere of love, paired with an incredible venue and a beautiful Colorado day made for a truly incredible wedding. Congratulations Katie and AK! Thank you for letting us be a part of your celebration!
Noemi and Karthik Preview
Noemi and Karthik had a gorgeous mountain wedding in Silverthorne, Colorado. The ceremony may have had the most stunning ceremony backdrop of the year so far. I grew up in Summit County, and after almost three decades, the scenery still takes my breath away.
The couple were great to work with, and the wedding was as full of joy and love as any wedding I've ever shot. I can't wait to edit the full highlight video!
Congratulations Noemi and Karthik!
Timelapses at Lionscrest Manor
This past week I had the opportunity to shoot at Lionscrest Manor in Lyons CO. As we were driving up the dirt road to the venue, before I ever saw it, I knew it was going to be something special. I shot a few timelapses throughout the day, and I'm really happy with how they turned out.
