Utah | Sunrise Hike at Delicate Arch
- I’m just going to be honest- I am not one of those photographers who catches sunrise every morning. Not even every month. This is probably one of only a few times each year that I do wake up for sunrise. I only save these occasions for when I think it will be absolutely worth losing sleep over. And this h [...]
Colorado | Rock Scrambling at Settlers Park in Boulder
Boulder is a pretty cool little place. I say little, but actually the city was much bigger than I expected it to be. Like, it was a legit real city, with all the big stores you could ever imagine, but it also had all the cool independently owned coffee shops I would ever want to chill at. Then it was surr [...]
Colorado | Hiking and Skiing Estes Park
- I am so thankful for Laura and Oakley and their friendship. I first met these two a couple years ago when I photographed their wedding in Asheville, North Carolina. About a year after they got married, they decided to move to Estes Park, Colorado right outside of Rocky Mountain National Park. It was about [...]
Laura | Bridals in Rocky Mountain National Park
- Colorado stole our hearts. One hundred percent. And while all of our hikes were covered in snow, and all the alpine lakes we visited were thick with ice, the magic of winter was in full throttle. The tips of the Rocky Mountains had received over five feet of snow, but the sun warmed things to the point wh [...]
Thea + Ronny | Rocky Mountain Adventure at Dream Lake
- Thea and Ronny had been our Facebook friends for quite a while. We met online through one of our other couples, and even though we had never actually met in person, we really loved following each other’s lives. Thea and Ronny lived in Raleigh, North Carolina while we did, and just made the big move to Kan [...]
Slow Exposures and Arches | Bisti Badlands, New Mexico
- Last year I traveled to the Bisti Badlands in New Mexico. You might recall that crazy shot taken under the stars. Check out my instagram if you haven’t seen it. It’s pretty epic (if I don’t say so myself). Well, from a photographer’s standpoint it’s actually so-so. I’ll get into that later. It was one of those nights [...]
Kim + Kevin | Mountaintop Wedding in Winthrop, WA
- Kim and Kevin have absolutely spoiled us! This winter, we snow shoed up Steven’s Pass for their backcountry skiing engagement session. Then, we returned this summer for some more mountain fun in the Cascades- only this time it was warm and sunny. Kim and Kevin held both their ceremony and reception overlooking M [...]
Maggie + Matt | Colorado Engagement at Boulder Flatirons
- Since hitting the road, some cool things have started happening. First of all, we pinch ourselves for being able to drive all around the country photographing weddings. People have even started flying into destinations to meet us in the beautiful spots we visit. Maggie and Matt are one of those couples. T [...]
Katy + Nick | Asheville Engagement at Max Patch Mountain
- Josh and I were so happy to meet up with Katy and Nick outside of Asheville as we camped at Max Patch Mountain. We had just booked a wedding with them out in Glacier National Park next summer and were so eager to meet up and hang in the mountains. We parked our camper right there in the parking lot at the [...]
Christine + Jamie | Black Balsam Knob Adventure Engagement, Asheville, NC
- Josh and I first visited Black Balsam many years ago when we had just moved to North Carolina. We organized a backpacking trip through the outdoors group that we ran and hiked from Black Balsam, through Shining Rock Wilderness, and up to Cold Mountain. It was a fall trip and the colors and blue ridge moun [...]
