Anna & Patrick Lusby

I spent some time with Anna & Patrick right before their little baby girl was born. They are an adorable couple and Anna looked fabulous four weeks before the baby was born!

Josh & Jodi Niernberg

On September 5th, 2009, Josh and Jodi shared their heartfelt vows with their friends, family, and each other at the Four Mile Historic Park in Cherry Creek. The reception followed at Space Gallery where Josh shared his culinary diversity with me. Now I know why Jodi gave me look of hesitation as I ate some strange pate on a cracker. Had I listened more carefully to the things she will never eat, it could have saved me a minute of embarrassment as I politely informed Josh it wasn't my cup of tea. I had a amazing day shooting with Josh and Jodi! To view more of their photos, Click here.

Anne Svoboda & Tom Manchester

We spent a Friday afternoon at the Denver Zoo, walking around, chatting, and getting some great shots in. Afterward, we went to St. Joesph's Hospital, where Anne and Tom met and both work. We were fortunate enough to get some amazing shots on a rooftop patio facing Denver's skyline and mountains- all thanks to the very friendly nun convent that allowed us to use their patio.

It's Been A While. . .

So far this summer has been great! My Husband Brad and I tied the knot on June 13th, 2009 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. We got married in an intimate music venue called Wasted Space. It was offbeat, simply beautiful, and really fit Brad and I's style and taste! Having met at the Gothic Theater at a local show, this venue just really made sense to us.

We had a sensational wedding coordinator named Christie of CLM Wedding & Events , who has since hired a Colorado coordinator by the name of Alex Hatch. You can even check out some of our wedding photos, shot by the talented and extraordinary Eric Asistin, who everybody loved!

Everything really went off without a hitch, thanks to the outstanding staff of The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, especially Brandi Payne.

Having recently gone through the joys and hurdles of planning a unique wedding, and trying to make as many people happy as possible, including us, has really changed my perspective on shooting weddings. It has given me a greater understanding of the euphoria and stress a bride-to-be, groom-to-be, family and friends can really go through during this time.

So cheers to all of you planning weddings! I wish you all the most amazing day ever!

Lynsey Long & Andy Mcmullen- April 25, 2008

April 25th, 2008

Friends and family of Lynsey and Andy gathered at St. Peter & St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Denver, Colorado to share the emotional union of this amazing couple. The festivities continued at the Westin Hotel, Tabor Center, with cake cutting, good eats, and tons of dancing. I had an incredible time, and there was no shortage of wonderful images.
