Grady & Brandy | the wedding sessions

So this was the most bunny-riffic wedding of all time. Wow! Not only do they like Dom Perignon they love bunnies. The story goes, they picked up a bunny at a Cracker Barrel on a trip one time and well, you know how bunnies are, they just keep multiplying. Their friends and family made me feel like part of the clan and I just loved all Brandy's creative ideas. The theme of the Thursday backyard wedding WAS improv... and on Saturday, it was mix and mingle with all sorts of friends and relatives adding to the mix. It was also Bill and Judy's 50th anniversary (Grady's parents). The "kids" gave the couple a cruise to Alaska, which was a surprise. You might remember this couple from their engagement session which is just a couple posts back... I just simply can't say enough great things about them. Oh and kudos for choosing Tiffany Blue and brown as your colors... matches well with my own, eh? Side Note: It's sometimes hard to pronounce Grady and Brandy, much less write it. Just try it yourself. So the poor folks at the M&M printing center messed up just a bit, but hey, Grady and Brandy rolled with it, which is why they are so great. Hollye Schumacher came on Saturday with me to shoot this event and I have to tell you, Hollye was one of the hardest working second shooters EVER!! HUSTLE was her middle name.

Skirt the Yurt

Tuesday we had a birthday party at the Yurt for my friend Dawn Kish over at the Nordic Center. We all cross-country skied by the light of the half-moon. It was magical!

Jessie & Jason | A Different Point of View

Jessie and Jason both have the type of families that make you want to stop taking pictures and just chat it up. In fact, their friends, guests and relatives were all pretty incredible folks too. All in all, they pulled off a marvelous and classy wedding, including their very sharp choreographed dance routine. Jessie was breathtaking all day and frankly it was a very magical evening for everyone. Click to view slideshow HERE

Homemade Christmas donuts

On Christmas Day I made homemade donuts. I've never fried anything in my life. Special thanks to "team donut:" sis Kate (on sugar duty), Sarah Clark (knew when the oil was hot enough) and Norm & Matt (donut eaters)...they came out perfect.

the Kelly in Cameron + Kelly | meet Jamelle

Jamelle is so cute! I just love this shot of her on our way up to shoot some fun portraits on Oct. 19th and another in the red rocks getting low. Jamelle is such a pleasure to work with. We are a good team-- she keeps me focused. I am so excited for 2009! It's going to be a great year. Meet her in person at our Grand Opening party Thursday Nov. 13!
