If you are one of the very few people that have taken a dive into my website/blog, you’ll see I get the pleasure of photographing James and Melissa often! I consider myself incredibly lucky to have these two as friends, and to call on them anytime I have a crazy idea for a couples photo shoot. I’ve forced them in freezing lakes at sunset, on top of mountains laying in fields of bees, and now creeping on them during their cuddly Sunday’s together. I’ve been becoming more and more interested in doing home shoots lately. I strongly believe being in your own space during one of these shoots really adds to how much your photos reflect you as a couple!

I met Tess in August of 2007 while moving into our freshman dorm suite. Tess might just be one of the most wonderful people I know. Anyone who knows her, will tell you that you are instantly drawn to her laughter and contagiously bubbly personality.
After I graduated from college, I moved back to Alaska and Tess stayed in Colorado. Over the years we have made trips to see each other and have stayed in great contact. I was beyond excited when I received the call from Tess letting me know her and Kyle were engaged and she insisted I had to make plans to ensure I was there!
Tess and Kyle’s wedding day was nothing short of a wild good time! The weather went from sunny to thunder to rain in the middle of the ceremony, but that stopped no one from having a good time. I had a hard time picking photos from that day, Tess and Kyle had one of the most emotional first looks I’ve witnessed and you’ll see that below. Also that contagious personality I mentioned earlier? That is probably why you’ll see the 14+ bridesmaids on bikes riding to the wedding ceremony.
Enjoy!
