Bride and groom at Civic Center Park in Denver
      Erin and Gabriel
      Denver, Colorado
      July 10, 2010

      Erin and Gabe got married Saturday in Denver, and it was the kind of fun day that slips by too quickly. They had a dual Lutheran-Catholic ceremony at St. Paul’s Church downtown, and a reception at the Doubletree Hotel in Greenwood Village. Gabe is a photographer, too, so he made sure that they had some great photo opportunities throughout the day. They scheduled a break between the ceremony and reception, and explored a bar and a park downtown with their wedding party. I highly recommend this idea to future couples!Congratulations, Erin and Gabe! What a fun day!

      Hi Iana,

      Most of the photos that look candid really are candid. I try very hard to predict, observe, and capture true moments. The exception is during the 30 minutes that I spend with the bride and groom for their portrait session. I try to make those photos look candid, but most of them are arranged by me.

      ๐Ÿ™‚

      Great pics of an amazing couple on a spectacular day! Can’t wait to see more!

      Beautiful photographs as always.

      My favorites would be the ones near the fountains I think.

      Beautiful shots!

      Charlotte, thank you for all your hard work capturing our special day. We had so many compliments from family and friends on how great you were to work with, and of course we had a blast with you, especially the park and bar photos. They all look fabulous!

      I got my necklace, hair piece and cake topper all on Etsy, which has tons of great, original wedding accessories. The necklace designer is Cathy5591. http://www.etsy.com/listing/27418723/simply-elegant-backdrop-necklace-and

      Just a quick question about taking pics on the day…
      You always seem to have some gorgeous shots, that look very candid and unposed…
      Do you often ask people to hold still or keep doing what they’re doing or do something again? ๐Ÿ™‚

      Or is it just thanks to quick equipment and good eye? ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Thanks in advance

      very nice and gentle!

      Incredible photos! You truly captured those precious moments at a wedding that everyone relives in their mind days later. All of the shots are beautiful, but my personal favorites are the pictures of “La Marche” or “The wedding march”. Excellent job!

      I love the shot where you can see the fountain water, but not the fountain itself. The big drops hanging in the air looks magical.

      Wonderul shots – they’re such a photogenic couple to begin with, and your skills just made them even nicer to look at!

      Erin and Gabe are current on their honeymoon, but I’ll direct them here when they return for the etsy anwswer ๐Ÿ™‚

      I love her necklace, too! It’s beautiful from all angles. She said she found it on Etsy.

      Erin, if you’re reading this, would you mind sharing your Etsy designer?

      I love her necklace. Do you know who made it?

      The set is phenomenal! Well done.

      sooo pretty!!!!!!!
