Stacey & Ryan had the most perfect day for their Estes Park wedding this past weekend at the Twin Owls Steakhouse at the Black Canyon Lodge. I can’t wait to dive into their photos! They were such a wonderful couple to work with. Here are two of my quick favorites.
I had so much fun making these beautiful family photos up in Rocky Mountain National Park the other day. Atlanta residents, Tyler and Jackie, were married up at the Stanley Hotel 10 years ago and to celebrate their anniversary they decided to take a trip back to Colorado, this time with their three sweet daughters in tow. We had the most perfect spring day for their family photos and Sprague Lake provided the most perfect backdrop. Dressed in angel-white dresses, their girls climbed boulders, threw rocks into the lake, smelled wildflowers and kept a look out for Bigfoot. They each showed off their fantastically willful personalities, scratched legs and pretty smiles. These are some of my favorite family photos to date. Hope you like them too!
The Giglio’s wanted to freshen up the prints in the frames scattered around their home so we met for a quick family portrait session at Irvine Regional Park, CA. They were so thoughtful to include both sets of grandparents in these photos! Timeless family archives of three generations, I wish I had some beautiful photos with my grandparents. What a great idea for a family portrait session!
This spring I was fortunate to travel back to my home state of New Jersey to be Lauren and Matt’s wedding photographer. I’ve know Lauren and her family for over 20 years and always feel so honored when friends choose me to help document their day. Lauren and Matt were wed at the fabulous Stone House in Warren, NJ. The iffy weather didn’t disrupt our day and I had the best time capturing so many special moments and all the wonderful details they spend so much time working on to make their wedding both romantic and unique.
Thank you so much Lauren and Matt, it was truly wonderful to watch you commit your lives to each other!
A sweet review from this beautiful bride…
“Kira is a true artist, not just a photographer. She captured our wedding day/night perfectly. She picked up on every little detail, every special moment. I especially love her attention to people and their emotions. Even during the stressful and rushed times, she remaimed calm and on point. Aside from the portraits, I wouldn’t have even known she was there! A true professional through and through.”
Fierce weather for this fiercely beautiful bride who was wed this Memorial Day weekend up in Boulder, Colorado’s Sunshine Canyon. This Boulder wedding is one of my favorites this year and a destination wedding for so many of their guests! More photos coming soon and check me out on Instagram for my daily photos.
I met Lindsay & Chris while backpacking through Costa Rica and I was super honored when they contacted me a few weeks after and asked me to photograph their wedding. Knowing what an adventurous couple they were, I asked them if we could try somewhere new for their engagement session. They were totally game and I started looking around Boulder for a new place to photograph. Harlow Platts Park, down near the south Boulder recreation center, popped out at me and it completely paid off. This Boulder engagement photographer was inspired by everything! The lines in the bridges, the buds on the trees, the reflections in the lake. It was so refreshing to be somewhere new for one of these shoots!
