Sweet Sounds: Acoustic

I had the pleasure of photographing some great musicians last night, one of which happens to be a close friend of mine. You guys put on a great show and I can't wait for the next one! Check them out at: http://www.myspace.com/amazingfuture &  http://www.reverbnation.com/mirrors2

Sweet Colorado: Revisited

A few months ago I shared some of the photos that were taken during my drive through Rocky Mountain National Park, but I also came across some random favorites that I have yet to share. Some of you may know that I love taking pictures of food, so I of course I'll be sharing a few of those as well. Colorado, especially Boulder, has some amazing restaurants if I do say so myself. My mom and I have agreed some of the best meals we've ever had were while on this trip. Also, the farmer's market was fantastic and I'm thinking of having a print sale for the public boasting the "fruits" of their labor. Let me know if you'd be interested in that idea!

I hope you had a great holiday season and welcome to the new year! I've got a lot to share, but not a lot of time to post so I'm just going to get started. This wedding took place Labor Day weekend. I loved the color of the bridesmaids dresses, the brides dress was AMAZING and the sunflowers used throughout the wedding made me smile! Speaking of smiles, I don't think the lovely bride Jamie stopped smiling all day!

Happy Halloweeeen!

Last year we made a big production out of Halloween with costumes, scary music and themed food to boot. We had a blast but it was A LOT of work. When my friend Britt and I decide to do something we DO IT. lol. Unfortunately this year we just didn't have the energy to pull it off again so we're laying low. Scary movie marathon anyone? Regardless of what you're doing tonight I hope you're having a good time! Happy Halloween!

Sweet Love: Slideshow

I put this slideshow together to play at the Bedford Bridal Show tomorrow. If anyone will be in the area stop and see me! Some of these photos have been showcased on the blog already, but things look a little different when put to music. I hope you enjoy it! This year has been amazing so far and I just want to thank all the wonderful couples that chose me to be their wedding photographer, I definitely wouldn't be here without you!!

Sweet Colorado: RMNP

Back in September my mom and I boarded a plane to go visit my sister in Colorado for a few days. The key phrase in that last sentence being "boarded a plane". I don't know why but I feel like the older I get the more terrified of flying I become. When I was little I use to love to fly- but now I'm wondering if that had more to do with Disneyworld being the final destination & I just blocked out the rest of it. Needless to say I get the nervous stomach ache the day before my flight comes and I worry about it until takeoff. Then my palms start to sweat and my knuckles turn white from gripping my jeans too tight at every little shutter of the airplane. Anyway, we made it in one piece BUT not before 3 delays, a change in airline, being rerouted from a direct flight to a layover in ATL and finally arriving in DEN. Does anyone really wonder why people hate airlines? But then- I get to where I'm going and I end up being so glad that I sucked it up and dealt with it. We had a great time in Colorado and maybe I'll do it again next year. lol. 

OH, but I will say that the best thing (or only good thing) about waking up at 4am is the sunrise. Especially when they look like this:

I don't know if I was just uber-inspired on this trip or if Colorado is just so gorgeous that everything you take a picture of takes your breath away. Maybe a bit of both? I have SOOOO many pictures that I will have to break this into multiple posts. Those of you that know me will also know that I love taking pictures of food. So yes chances are I will have a post devoted entirely to the food we ate in Colorado. Those of you that may be bored to death by that can skip right over that post though, I won't be upset. Well- maybe a little. lol. Ok so enough rambling and onto the pictures. This post is completely devoted to the scenery of Rocky Mountain National Park in Estes, CO. Phenomenal.

 Taken through a dirty windshield, so excuse the smudges- still love it though.

 In case no one's picked up on it yet, I have an infatuation with trees. 

I'd be interested in knowing what that means if anyone knows!

I'll leave you on a funny note. An elk that thinks he's a dog. 

P.S. This wasn't taken with a zoom lens, I really was that close. 

Sweet Miracle: Baby Bump

This mommy-to-be was so easygoing and friendly I felt more like I was hanging out with an old friend than taking maternity photos for an almost stranger. These photos were taken a few months ago and I can't wait to meet the little sweet pea, as mommy's due date is RIGHT around the corner! 

Important Note: Normally I would put my watermark on these images but since I'm so behind and in an effort to save time and get these babies up, I'm skipping that step. So please be good and don't use these photos without my permission. All images copyright of Sweet Digital Photography. Thanks & Enjoy :)
