Jackie Senior Session (Denver Senior Photography)

Without further adieu here are a few highlights from Jackie's senior session.  I have known Jackie since she was probably about 2 years old, and it's really hard to imagine she's actually a senior.  What a beautiful and strong girl you've turned out to be though Jackie.  I am so proud of you and where you are in your life, I am so encouraged by you and your strength.  You have such a bright future ahead of you and I can't wait to see where you go from here.  Love and Hugs to you!

What better time to post engagement session highlights than on the eve of the wedding?  I'm sure the anticipation is building for this beautiful couple, and I know it is for me.  I'm so looking forward to tomorrow and sharing this special time with them.  This wedding is going to make my southern roots happy.  A barn, a silo, outdoor games, what more could a girl ask for?

Molly and Clyde (Crested Butte Wedding Photography)

What an incredible place to have a wedding!  I must say I've fallen in love with Crested Butte, and need to visiting again before long.  This is one of the most beautiful venues for a wedding, so simple and yet breathtaking.  This is truly what it means to live in Colorado.   The ceremony was held at the "Woods Walk", a public open space in the mountains of Crested Butte.   

It was wonderful to be with these two amazing people on their wedding, and their family is just too much fun.  All of these things together made for a perfect day.

Wishing you all the happiness in the world Molly and Clyde!  Congrats!!

Day Trip to the Royal Gorge

Yesterday my family was visiting from Wisconsin and we decided to take a day trip down to the Royal Gorge in Canon City, Colorado.  The area had recently been burned out by fires, and many of the businesses are still rebuilding and you actually are still not allowed to go down into the Gorge or across the bridge.  The only way to view the area is just from a small overlook that is accessible by car or by hiking, we chose to stretch our legs and walk, and wow was it worth it.  What a beautiful place.  I can't believe I've never visited this place as long as I've been in Colorado, it really was spectacular.  This was my favorite from yesterday.

Highlights of a Special Needs Prom - What a beautiful night!

We were so blessed to be able to participate a couple of weeks ago in a prom that our church threw for disabled and special needs folks.  It turns out that most of these people do not attend the proms of their own high schools for many reasons, and miss out on this opportunity that so many take for granted.  Events like these is just one reason that I absolutely love my church.
It was such a special night and they really made it an amazing event.  There was a sit down plated dinner for over 140 guests plus their chaperones, (all chicken was donated by Chick Fil A, way to go once again guys!), and catered by a gal at the church for free.  The tables were decorated beautifully, and no details were left out.  There were stations set up to help the ladies with their hair and makeup and jewelry, and a red carpet for them to walk in on, with a crowd of loving people cheering them on.   After the dinner was dancing and games set up, and it really seemed that everyone had a blast!   My two daughters came and helped to man the backup camera and swapped off the other working so hard in the kitchen to plate dinners and clean, I was so proud of them.  My husband chaperoned and had a blast himself dancing and playing games.
This was truly a night to remember, Colorado Community Church, you are doing wonderful things!!

Here are a few photos from the Edge Church shoot I just had this past week in Aurora.  I loved the aesthetic of this building, it was very modern and cool inside.  Thanks Logic for another fun shoot!
