Della Terra Wedding; Kate and Kevin

There names just scream cute don’t they?  I mean who wouldn’t think Kate and Kevin were meant to be when all you know about them is there names.  The more I learned though the more and more I knew without a doubt that Kate and Kevin are totally and completely meant to be together.  And oh my god the chemistry between them is….well HOT.  More then once I felt the need to pull the camera away from my eye just to catch my breath and let the steam cool off.  There are just so many photos from their wedding I want to share, it’s going to be a long post.  Kate and Kevin thank you so much for inviting me into your day of bliss!  You are sweeter then pie and I just wished you lived in Colorado. 

I think Kate has been blessed by the hair gods.  Seriously just simply stunning.

Bridesmaids in cream with red accents…oh yea GORGEOUS! I just couldn’t help myself, the shoes and just fabulous.Who can do a rubik cube in under a minute?  Oh yea Kevin can!  The day after their wedding was Kevin’s birthday, so of course there needs to be a cake just for Kevin.  And what could possibly be better then a rubik cube cake?Sometimes there’s sun at sunset and sometimes there’s sunlight from heaven.  We lucked out and had the ladder.  A perfect end for a beautiful couple.

Project People, week one

Winter is always a low time for any photographer, especially a wedding and portrait photographer.  So naturally there are fewer opportunities to get out and shoot, so I’ve decided I need to do a personal project that would get me outside and shooting.  I wanted something that would push me and make me almost uncomfortable.  Approaching complete strangers on the street is definitely something I don’t like to do, let along asking to take their picture.  It literally took passing by about 4 people before I worked up the nerve to ask this first couple.  But they were great, a little shocked, but obliged none the less.

So I pull the camera up and click off three frames without even really thinking about it.  And he totally called me out on it!  Which I’m so glad he did!  He’s right, I said one picture and I took three.  So challenge number two is, I get one frame.  That’s it!  I have to think about what I’m doing and the shot already in my head before I even pull the camera up.  Which I have to say is really easy to get away from shooting digital.  You don’t have to worry about how much film your using or what it’ll cost if you over shoot.   You have to think before you press the shutter.  Something very easy to forget.

But alas, here is week one.  Three complete strangers in one frame.  My hope is to blog each week on Friday and to do this as long as I feel inclined.  Maybe a year?  Hope you enjoy!

Love that this guy didn’t look at the camera.
