The.Delmonico.Family.

This family is one of the raddest family I’ve ever photographed.  After seeing their pictures I’m sure you won’t disagree.  They have so much style and flair.  I really enjoyed getting to meet them and capture a glimpse of their marvelous family!  It’s so hard to pick faves from a shoot with people this fantastic but I’ll do my best not to make this post overwhelmingly long…but no promises.  ;)   Leave them some comment love/share this post with your friends if you like the photos!

Another fave.

Baby J + Daddy

Baby J + Mommy

I Moved!!

On September 1st I packed up my car and set off on a 5 day cross country road trip in pursuit of growth and change and creativity on the East Coast.  I have certainly encountered all three since I’ve been here!  I’m really excited to be in the Charlotte, NC (York County, SC) area and to launch my photography business in this area.  I am open to travel and I will be going back to Colorado for visits so if you are in that area and want some photography work let me know and I’ll schedule you in around a time that I’m visiting.  I’m very open to travel to other places for wedding or event coverage or any other photography needs that you may have.  Email me with details and we’ll work something out.  In the meantime I’m here and about to launch some new photography services to business owners in the Charlotte area. Keep your eyes open for new improvements to this site and more community interaction as well as posts of some shoots of fantastic people that I did before leaving home.

Charlotte, I’m open for business!!

Ryan & Christy

Ryan and Christy met three years ago on a missions trip to Kenya, after coming back to Boulder, continuing with school and their friendship, going to India together, and Christy spending several months in Peru they have finally gotten married!  They have quite a wonderful journey and story, complete with dreams and prayers and friends and living life together.  I had a special assignment for this wedding.  We got up early in the morning, everyone in their bridal party got ready, and we went downtown and did a two hour shoot after which I ran home, edited like a mad woman, picked my top three faves and got them printed.  Then I brought the prints to the wedding that afternoon so that they could have them at the wedding for people to sign around.  Then I just enjoyed the wedding (didn’t take any pictures) and spent time with my dear friends.  The lovely Anne Story second shot with me and it was such a joy to get to be a part of their day.

These were the three we ended up taking to the wedding:

Christy is so photogenic, I could take pictures of this girl all day long…

This might be my favorite shot of the day.

Kendra & Jake’s Wedding

My friend Kendra and I met a few years ago at a conference, I had been on ministry teams with both of her parents and they kept saying that we needed to meet.  For one reason or another I was a total spazz when we finally did meet and so I thought I ruined my chances of being friend with this tall, gorgeous, kind of quiet, blue eyed girl.  I’m happy to say that it turns out that I was wrong!  =)  Kendra and I became great friends!  In fact she was one of the first people I ever did portraits of a couple of years ago.  What a gal!  About a year ago she started talking about this guy Jake in glowing terms.  Now I’m a tad bit protective of my friends and I wasn’t so sure about this Jake guy, but the more I heard about them and as their relationship progressed I began to see that this was the man she would be with forever.  It was so exciting to get to be part of Kendra’s big day!  Because of my crazy travel schedule I ended up being a second shooter just in case I couldn’t make it back in time.  Without further ado, Kendra and Jake!

They did a “first look” where they saw each other before the wedding.
