Jennifer was all smiles and bubbly when I met her in her suite. She looked beautiful in her strapless white dress. Her veil was adorned with lovely beadwork and she was ready to go in her white boots. A girl has to stay warm, you know. Jake was quiet and reserved, but it was clear how he felt about his bride when she rounded the corner and their eyes met for the first time. Jennifer's mom walked her down the aisle with tears of happiness in her eyes. The ceremony was filled with lovely words from the scripture and was full of meaningful prayers.
Jennifer and Jake were up for climbing rocks and traversing through snow to get the shot. To be honest, I wasn't worried about Jennifer trekking over the terrain in her boots, but Jake had me nervous in his dress shoes. Luckily, we got some amazing photos and survived unscathed. The pictures have turned out to be beautiful in black and white. With the stark nature of a winter wedding, black and white photos can sometimes turn out to show a deep and warm emotion.
Even though it was a cold day, it was full of warmth and love as these two lovely people started their family as husband and wife. To Jennifer and Jake: even when the wind is chilly and times hard, may you always find warmth, love, kindness, and laughter with each other. Congrats and happy wishes for a lifetime of happiness!

I love Jennifer's sass in this one.
The Pavilion at the Black Canyon Inn is such a lovely spot.
First Kiss!
You just can't script these smiles. I love this sweet moment I caught as Jennifer and Jake were announced as husband and wife.
Had to grab a wrap to warm Jennifer up for a few minutes.
Lovin' the boots!
A lovely shot with Longs Peak in the background.
I wish a had a picture of Jake's face as Jennifer warmed her hands up on his back.
