What a joy this has been for me. I am going to be a father of another child. It feels just like it was just the other day that I was awakened by my wife tossing a positive pregnancy test at my head. The words that came out of her mouth I will NEVER forget. “Look what you did…” Sounds harsh, but it was hilarious. Ever since that day, we have been eagerly waiting for this new joy to enter […]
Our friends, Josh and Bronwyn, were married in Durango on September 6th, 2014. It was such a fun day from the time I met with Bronwyn in the morning, to the end of the night. We are so grateful to have been a part of it. When I think back to their wedding day, I especially remember how many laughter filled moments there were. During the ceremony, special moments shared between bride and groom, dancing… It was seriously an amazing […]
Colin ad Staci were married on June 7, 2014. Sometimes with all the ado of the wedding day, fitting in photo sessions can be complicated. However, photos of the bride and groom are crucial. That’s why we usually recommend a secret reveal session, allowing at least and hour and a half for intimate bride and groom photos between the ceremony and reception, or getting together shortly after the wedding for a session. That’s what we ended up deciding for the […]
Colin and Staci were married on June 7, 2014. You may remember their engagement session back in April. If you haven’t seen it, check it out! It was definitely one of our favorites. Colin and Staci are seriously some of the kindest clients we have ever worked with. Even during the toasts from friends and family at the reception, there was gratitude and story after story of their gentleness and willingness to go out of their ways to help where […]
Eli and Crissy were married at Washington Park in Denver, Colorado on June 13, 2014. The Mirabal family has never been so involved in a wedding before! I was the photographer, Lillian and River were flower girls and Shepherd was a bubble blower. Haha! And Stephen, officiated. So, basically, I TOTALLY had the hots for the pastor. We drove up the Denver the day before the wedding and made it just in time for the rehearsal. The day of, Lillian […]
We love being Durango engagement photographers. Meet Tatjana and McLean. We met them a couple of weeks ago at their gorgeous home early in the morning. I was incredibly nervous. Often times, before sessions, I dream that my camera doesn’t work, or that I forgot my battery and have to use my phone, or that the clients are mad at me.These are the things that filled my dreams the night before, and I’m an anxious person, so it was difficult […]
Stephen and I photographed Colin and Staci’s engagement session back in April. We had the privilege of capturing their wedding last month as well, and that blog is coming soon! Upon meeting these two at the time of their session, I whispered to Stephen, “They are adorable…” Staci is gorgeous and so sweet, and Colin is this kind, gentle guy who has this crazy-cool professor beard. They have been amazing to work with!
I love this family. Love them. Stephen and I have been able to spend time with them in a few different settings over the last couple of years, and the more we get to know them, the more we enjoy them. We’ve discussed the ups and downs of marriage, parenthood, life in general, and through it all, Skylar has become one of my dearest friends. We haven’t even touched on the topic of our mutual love for Christopher Guest movies […]
Stephen and I photographed Ken and Ashley’s wedding last October. You may remember their engagement session, and their love of football. That enthusiasm carried over into their wedding day. Die hard Broncos fan marrying a die hard 49ers fan. The entire day was joyful and energetic! My eyes were full of tears on a few occasions. The bride & groom and I got together the next evening for a quiet, non-rushed session of the two of them as a […]
We drove our little family down to Las Cruces, New Mexico, to photograph Stephen’s cousin’s wedding. I am so glad we were able to, and that the roads were perfectly clear all of the way there. I was so excited when we drove up to the church, and it was an old, mission style catholic church. The ceremony was a traditional catholic ceremony, which was new to us, and a great thing to experience. Not only was the wedding […]
This is my first go at a session where Brittany let me do the whole thing, so if I’m not as good of a storyteller as her, bummer for you. A few weeks ago, I stepped into a beautiful home. Even more stunning, was this family that was full of laughter, games, life… normal stuff. I like seeing normal people try and live their lives among each other and focus on the right things. The mom of the family looked […]
This shoot was fun. Not only were my 3 children in the car the entire shoot with the windows rolled down watching Tinkerbell, shouting at me for snacks, but we basically set up a living room on my friends’ property. Crissy was full of ideas for this engagement session, and since they were all great ones, it made it easy. We have known Eli for a while. He is also a photographer/videographer and a crazy awesome graphic designer. He and […]
