Wall Art Weekend

The Artist in me has three
Faithful, sleepless
And self-giving friends:
A newness-eye, a oneness-heart
And a fulness-life.I love using photography and art together to bring a room to life.  Sprinkling in family photos with your favorite art can bring a lot of personality to a display.  And I like that I can use smaller pieces of paintings, which makes it cheaper.  We’re all looking to maximize a dollar right? Plus I love finding small pieces of art when we travel and then incorporating that into our wall displays.  A little mini reminder of our travels.

Sadly this is not my home, but in my dreams it is.  I found it on pinterest, where it originally came from this site.

If you’re on pinterest and want to see what I pin, find me here.

Happy pinning!

Grant Humphrey’s Wedding, Hillary and John

Chic, romantic and true.  Hillary and John are just that.  It still blows my mind how two people can meet and fall in love and be so perfect for each other.  I really think there has to be someone out there for each of us.  A perfect match made in heaven.  It sounds so cheesy, but yet it feels so true and good to say.   Sometimes when you’re least expecting it to the unbelievable happens.


My Second shooter Stacy had fun shooting some expired film in a twin lens camera.  Thank you so much Hillary and John for allowing me to come into your lives and sharing  just a piece of it with me.   I can’t wait to see where this world takes you!

 

Denver Athletic Club Wedding, Allison & Nick

Life can be complicated.  Families are complicated.  But when it comes down to two gorgeous people getting married we put aside our differences and come together to celebrate. And that’s exactly what Allison and Nick’s loved ones did.  They came together because Allison and Nick are in love.

Allison’s nickname as a child, given by her late father, was Allison Falls.  Well Nick’s last name is Falls.  I’d say that’s a match made in heaven.

Allison and Nick’s wedding pushed me professionally in that we had very little light to work with.  We were working against the clock. But I love how grainy and honest the photos are.  Allison and Nick are film students and their artsy personalities really shine through.  I’m so honored to be a part of such a beautiful union.

My uber talented second shooter Meghan caught these of the gents. I’m in love with this shot from Meghan…is that weird?  Seriously though it just has so much soul and personality.   ah Meg you’re awesome. Killer Holga shots.

Amazing team to work with!

Just breath…

Why is it that when you want time to just stand still, even if it’s just for a moment, that time speeds up and goes by in a blur?  If I could stop time for my couples I would.  Just for a moment to soak it all up.  Smell the air, feel the breeze and just love each other with no distractions.

A little sneak peak of Natalie and John’s wedding last Saturday.  A gorgeous day for a gorgeous loveable couple.
