I finished off a fabulous 2014 with a sweet, simple, tiny Colorado Mountain Wedding. Hannah & Bryse live and work in Cambodia but came back to the states to share the exchanging of their vows with only their immediate family. Bryse’s parents have a beautiful mountain home in Eagle, Colorado which made a perfect setting for this winter wedding and I simply loved the tradition Korean wedding dress Hannah wore against the muted, snowy backdrop. Hannah & Bryse had the fastest ceremony I’ve ever had the pleasure of documenting (only 6 minutes!) then a lovely lunch of meat pie made from Bryse’s grandmother’s famous recipe.

Granby Ranch Wedding | Amanda & Mike
Amanda and Mike’s Granby Ranch Wedding was absolutley perfect. The sweet, fun-loving couple took such care and paid special attention to all of their wonderful homemade details and the bright, shiny, colorful Colorado day complimented their wonderful energy. I loved the special moments between Amanda and her dad, Mike becoming overwhelmed with emotion as Amanda walked down the aisle and all the fun, silly, truly unique moments during the reception.
One of the best reviews a bride has ever given me… Thank you Amanda, it was truly my pleasure.
“Kira was absolutely amazing and a true joy to work with. It was important for us to find a photographer that would truly capture the moments as they happened. In fact, the photos were our most important aspect of the wedding and Kira did not disappoint. Somehow this lovely lady covered our wedding with the skill of a CIA operative. Going through our photos we keep asking ourselves, “Do you remember her taking that photo?” Kira marched all over the ceremony capturing it from every angle at some points marching right off the side of the mountain. She pays extra attention to the emotions people are feeling and looking at the photos now brings me right back to every captured moment. Her past body of work is extraordinary and her photos speak for themselves.
Kira kept calm through our chaotic, opinionated family. It was a relief to have her there because I didn’t need to worry about anything. She wrangled our families like a 3 ring circus leader and got every plausible photo you would normally get in an hour shoot in what felt like 5 minutes! (which was good because they can be a handful!) My husband and I were so comfortable with her and that made our portraits all the more beautiful. Taking our portraits was a lot of fun. We hiked all over the mountain and she was right there with us, burrowing into the fall trees to get “THE PICTURE”. Towards the end of the night, she checked in during the reception to make sure she was taking all the pictures we wanted.
There is so much I could go on about. What else can I say? Kira is creative, professional, the best photographer I have ever worked with, caring, and is so obviously passionate about her career. One day when my husband and I start a family, Kira will be getting another call from us. If she’ll have us, I plan on making her our photographer for life.”

Boulder Engagement Photography | Rachael & Chris
I met this beautiful couple at a special, secret, trailhead south of town, for their Boulder engagement photography. Rachael and Chris were such a pleasure to work with and we had the most beautiful fall weather. The rustic trailhead was a perfect spot for their Boulder engagement photography offering sweeping views of the mountains, fields of tall grass to play in and a small forest glowing in the late afternoon light. I love how natural they were in front of the camera, joking, hugging and showing off how wonderfully in love they are. I can’t wait for their wedding next summer in Estes Park at the Twin Owls Steakhouse.

Carrie & Billy | Brown Palace Denver Wedding
A new Year’s Eve wedding… what fun!! I met Carrie & Billy a couple years ago when I photographed Carrie’s brother’s Estes Park wedding and I was so pleased when they had me come back for their special day. Repeat customers are the best!
Carrie & Billy came in from Chicago and had an amazing Colorado wedding reciting their vows at the Church of the Holy Ghost followed by a wild party in downtown Denver at the Brown Palace’s Onyx Room. Their guests came ready to celebrate and celebrate they did.
What a fitting day to get married… a new year, a fresh start, a wonderful night to begin the rest of your lives together. So happy I got to start the new year off with such a fantastic couple.

Boulder Engagement Photography | Colorado Weddings
I had so much fun working with Niki and Tuee during their engagement shoot in downtown Boulder and at Chautauqua Park. The fall colors were still vibrant and this stylish couple were total naturals in front of the camera. Their Denver wedding next summer is going to be amazing!
