Betsy, Liz & Dina’s Family Portraits in Wash Park

Saturday, October 29th, 2011

WOW look at those eyes – Dina is a darling girl with an infectiously excitable side, which we saw whenever she was holding a flower. I photographed Dina, Betsy and Liz in Denver, Colorado’s Washington Park (known to the locals as Wash Park).

Nicolle & Brian’s Autumn Cambridge, MN Wedding

Wednesday, October 19th, 2011

A golden tree and a sweet couple perfectly in love…what more can you ask for on an autumn October day? Nicolle and Brian were married in Cambridge, Minnesota and had one of the most fun weddings I’ve been to yet. The dance floor was rockin’, the wedding party was a hoot and watching the bride and groom made my heart melt.

Trey’s 3-Year Portraits

Sunday, October 16th, 2011

Trey’s portraits were taken after a storm afternoon in Denver, as the clouds began to clear. Trey told adorable knock-knock jokes the whole time, and we got lots of giggles out of him when he told the punchlines.

Ryan & Deirdra’s Wine Country Wedding

Thursday, October 6th, 2011

Ryan and Deirdra wed in the hills of wine country in California. Healdsburg Country Gardens has a big, old oak tree where they said their vows (and made me tear up). This stunning couple knows how to host a party, with a weekend of events that included a bicycle wine tour in the Russian River Valley and two relaxing nights of wine and great food leading up to the big event. I loved every detail of the wedding day, from the table place cards strung in rows to the paper lanterns adorning the trees and tables. But most of all I loved watching Ryan and Deirdra, two truly amazing people, on one of the happiest days of their lives. Aren’t they shining?

The Other Side of LA

Sunday, October 2nd, 2011

If you brave the traffic jams and noise of Los Angeles, you can still find hideaways like this – Schabarum Park. Flower fields and winding paths through the hills let you escape from the chaos of LA.
