My photography journey began 8 years ago in the state of Colorado. A family trip with a point and shoot camera turned into a quest to take a photo that I could turn into my own homemade computer wallpaper. I blamed the fact that I didn’t get an epic shot of the epic beauty of Colorado on that cheap camera, and I was convinced that the only way I would be able to make it happen was to buy a “real camera”. So a month later, I convinced my wife to let me buy a better camera, and that’s when the passion was ignited. All because of a family trip to a beautiful place.

Fast forward 8 years, and nearly 200 weddings later, and I was blessed with an opportunity that I had dreamed of since I began photographing weddings back in 2012 – to shoot one where it all began. Rachael and Elvin have a beautiful story. Their’s is a story of patience. Theirs is a story of faith in God. Theirs is a story of what love is truly about. God led these two people together, and somewhere in that divine plan, He led me to get to know them, and for that I am very grateful. (A very special shout out to my friend Leana with La De Da Events for introducing this amazing family to me and helping to make this all happen!)

Aspen is a wonderland, but not just in the winter. Fall in the Rockies is just as majestic. The air begins to get a little chilly and the beautiful, white-barked aspen trees ignite into a fiery river of gold that cuts through the evergreen forests canopy. September in Aspen isn’t just majestic, it’s just about as epic as it gets.

This blog is actually two stories in one. It’s the story of a wonderful couple with two wonderful families becoming one. And it’s the story of a guy that discovered his true passion at the age of 30 – with a cheap little camera in his hand, trying to be the next Ansel Adams – coming full circle with his photographic journey. It began in Colorado, and this wedding was a tip of the cap from a God that truly loves me — yeah, I know that was you. Thank you.
