Wedding Photography in Crested Butte Photo Show II



Photo 4. This couple was so sweet and expressive. they were clearly in love and the images were full of emotion. There were a lot of tears shed throughout the ceremony and when we did our portraits, they began to laugh together. I love this moment.  


Photo 5. I was with the bride and groom taking portrait images of just the two of them by the lake where they held their ceremony. The kids were playing nearby and this little flower girl was really enjoying dipping her toes in the water. She was so sweet and innocent, I had to capture a few moments.



Photo 6. We were spending a few hours touring around Crested Butte taking iconic images with the bridal party. As we were walking down Elk Ave to our next location, I noticed this great sunburst through the trees. I asked the groom to jump up on the flowerpot and give me a good “hang” from the light post. The bride jumped up too and I shot off a few frames. I think it is a really great iconic shot of Elk Avenue and historic downtown.

Wedding Photography in Crested Butte Photo Show




Photo 1. This was an amazing moment. The couple had an outdoor ceremony at Wilder Reserve and the entire time it was lightly raining. The moment the bride and groom began to walk down the aisle, a rainbow appeared. I quickly ushered everyone into the beautiful tall grass for this extraordinary photo op. It was a magical moment! everyone was so excited about the beautiful rainbow, A jump in the air seemed very fitting.


Photo 2.  The girls were standing on the bridge giggling and chatting drinking champagne. I was looking for a shot of all the cowboy boots but also took a wide shot. I love this image because everyone is so natural and relaxed and the sunburst gives it a warm glowing feeling. 


Photo 3. This bride and groom were a very laid back couple. We were on the Woods Walk shooting in the aspens and I asked them to sit for a few images. She is about a foot taller then the groom so this was a nice opportunity for them to be at eye level. I chose to give this photo a vintage feel because it adds another layer of interest.

Photo of the Week: A Snowy Land


Photo of the Week
"A Snowy Land"

Discounts on prints and merchandise available at www.3rdeyephoto.net

This photo was shot during a morning walk with my dogs. I decided to bring my camera with me (I should always do that but I don't) because it was right after a nice snow storm. I see this scene all the time walking up the hill behind my house and I always love the way the river looks in the winter. I thought the texture and frame added a little more uniqueness to the image, giving it more of an old-time feel.

Photo of the Week "Ethereal Tree"


Photo of the Week
"Ethereal Tree" 

discounts on prints are available at www.3rdeyephoto.net

It was early morning last week and I was out walking my dogs across the street when I noticed this glowing tree. I ran into my house and grabbed my camera. The tree was pretty far away up the hillside but my 70-200mm worked it's magic and gave me a photo that expressed just how I felt looking at this funny, sparkling, glowing tree in the frosty morning.
