If you know my style at all, than you probably know that “trashing the dress” isn’t really my thing. I focus on capturing emotion and genuine moments rather than trying to turn something that is a sacred and momentous into something that should be an advertisement for perfume. That being said, when on the actual day of their wedding, a bride and groom should be super stars and really know how to glam it up, while still authentically living out their wedding day in love, I’m tickled pink! That’s an alignment of many perfect stars! In that world, you have both the emotion of the day, the glamor of everything a bride should be, and the love for a “good time”. This sums up Andrea and Duane’s wedding…. Andrea is a gorgeous rock star who would be any photographers dream with her ability to be herself in front of the camera. And Duane’s total adoration and awe at Andrea’s beauty, is a thing I run across less that I’d like to. These two love each and also have a undying passion for art and beauty. This post–which may look like a “trash the dress”, was nothing of the sort, but was simply the way Andrea and Duane chose to celebrate part of their day—at Lime in Larimer square and all around the parts.

….And did I mention that Andrea is a photographer? Her wedding photographer was a very important decision for her, I feel very honored to have been the one chosen to capture this day.

This shot is purely PJ. Andrea took a horse and carriage over to Lime where they held the celebrations of the day. I got this shot as she was getting into the carriage. Isn’t she fabulous?!

Priceless expression from Duane, as Andrea rounded the corner and started descending the stairs…

Check it out, y’all…. Andrea gave me the honorary Nikon table! I was quite flattered, and my camera appreciated the shout out to Nikon.

I really hope Andrea puts this image on her website! I love it when the bride is also “the photographer”.

…and of course the day wasn’t just glamor—there was plenty of tenderness too. I could never tire of these kind of shots.

Check out this beautiful spread that I have to brag about! Jesse and Melissa’s wedding that I shot last September made it into this season’s knot’s “real weddings”.

What a doll!  It was a pleasure photographing Avery and all her many faces…. and it was so sweet to see how much in love Amy and Matt are with Avery.  It was a precious shoot!

I know that I’ve said this before, but I think i may publish a book just on the back of baby’s heads.  They are like a thumb print—completely unique and in this case in particular, simply adorable!~

If my mom were to see this image she would say ” Ummmm…..yummy”.  She wants grand babies so bad, but I’m afraid she’s going to have to wait a few more years!  Amy, on the other hand is head into parenthood now with Avery, and completely in love!

This photo totally doesn’t belong in the set, but it’s just so pj, that I had to throw it in…. I love the “home sweet home” nature of the image.

Andrea and Duane are engaged! And they finally did their engagement portraits!!! Andrea and I have been looking forward to this shoot for almost a year. She has loyally checked out about every post on my blog and collected her favorite images ( I think she may have become one of my biggest fans). And I have become one of hers! I adore these two! They are the real deal. They really love each other and there is such a maturity to their relationship—like soul mates.

We met at my studio where Andrea had her makeup done and then we had some time to kill before the rockies game, so we meandered around my hood in Potter’s highlands. It was perfect for the edgy stuff that Andrea and Duane were looking for. We then headed over to the game—it was an awesome shoot! I had so much fun! Anyone catch the score??

There really is this amazing chemistry between Andrea and Duane that is so easy to capture….

Check out the legs on the lady! Wow!

This is a pretty funny sequence…. I was trying to get Andrea and Duane kissing amongst the crowd at the Rockies game, but what ended up happening was even better. These kids were so mesmerized by the camera (they must have thought I was the news) that they didn’t even notice Andrea and Duane and bumped right into them! I loved it! Andrea and Duane just kept on kissing….

I had the pleasure of working with Ilene and Ali yesterday at the Sanctuary in Castle Pines. This was not an elopement…. Ilene called me and asked if I would re-shoot her wedding pictures. They had hired a friend to shoot their wedding back in August and didn’t have any formals that they were happy with. And while this isn’t usually my thing ( I generally like to be documenting, the “real deal” with all the emotions and hoopla) , there was something about Ilene’s voice in her inquiry that made me really excited to do this non-bridal for them. I’m so happy that I took this job! I had so much fun with these two, and despite the fact that these images weren’t done on their “wedding day”, the shoot certainly didn’t lack emotion… Ilene and Ali are very much in love and it was a blast documenting them in a more relaxed way. They seemed to have a lot of fun together while doing the shoot and I hope that I was able to capture the love and playfulness that exists in their relationship. Congratulations, Ilene and Ali (much belated)!

Ummm…. hello! Ilene is gorgeous! I really think she should model—in fact, if she weren’t moving to Dubai, I’d be calling her for some of my personal “edge” shoots!

This last shot was really fun! We had pretty much done all those “formals” that they needed, so I told them to just “pose” for me—do what they wanted! This is what Ali came up with, and I loved it! So natural and adorable!

I spent double the time that I normally do in engagement sessions with this couple yesterday—-I just couldn’t let them go! They are such a hot couple! I dragged them all over the place… first to commons park, and then because I decided that I’ve seen way to much of that park lately, I ended up taking them over to five points. Good times! It was pretty cold out, but Katie and Chris were troopers and despite the weather, I hope they had a good time. I know I did— I loved working with their faces!

We really lucked out with this amazing ominous sky! I love this image because it looks as though they are running from a storm.

Five points is great for shooting with all the distressed wood and old warehouses….

… and then we stumbled upon this old pickup truck and decided to snap a few shots with it. I can’t believe it was open! We probably broke the law for these next two shots, but oh well—the lengths we go to for art!

This might be my favorite shot of the day. I don’t know why, but  I couldn’t stop coming back to it.  It’s just so edgy and non-narcissistic….

First of all, I have to apologize for the amount of images I posted with this wedding! But it’s not very often that I get to go to another country to photograph a wedding, and especially with such a rad couple. I had so much fun last weekend with this bunch, I walked away feeling like I have a new set of pals. Everybody was super cool, and the ceremony and reception were simply stunning. I was crying from the rehearsal dinner until the very last dance—seriously.

I am so excited to share all these images with you… enjoy!

These images were taken at Sarah and Mike’s rehearsal “dessert”. It was so surreal—like a house party on the beach. It was amazing out—about 75 degrees with a nice sea breeze…. A perfect way to kick off the wedding celebration!

The weather channel predicted rain, so i was scared to get out of bed to find a rainy Mexico day, but instead, I went out to the balcony to find this as my view. It was gorgeous! And I loved seeing the ceremony site from this perspective.

Sarah and Mike had their aunts as the flower girls—it was pretty hilarious!

One of the things I love about Playa del carmen, is all the bars seems to have swings instead of stools! Brilliant! We had to stop here on our way to the beach for some shots and shots…. 😉

I got this shot from Sarah’s Dad’s room…. another gorgeous view—this time of the reception site.

The reception was one big party—with lots of laughter and tears—and a ton of dancing! Jesse even got out onto the dance floor with me! Wish I had a shot of that!

I have been working on this site for seriously 3 months—sizing all the images, picking the perfect music, editing in work, editing out work… but I finally launced last week and Julie Harris Portraits is here! Check it out, y’all! www.julieharrisportraits.com

I also need some advice…. Is it appropriate to put my boudoir work next to my other portrait galleries? I am so laid back about these things, but I know that there may be people out there who could be offended by some nudity…. thoughts? My way of thinking, is if you don’t want to see naked women, don’t click on the the naked women, but maybe that’s naive. I may start yet another site called Julie Harris Edge with all the nudes and my fine art, but I don’t think I can manage the work until the end of the busy wedding season. I would love any input from my loyal blog stalkers out there….

The day after the crazy storm, it was still pretty miserable to be out walking about, so Paige found a cabbie who would drive us around for 25 euros an hour. So we headed out to the countryside for a little Irish adventure. The Cabbie was so great, in that he narrated the entire trip. He even teared up at one point when we came to a bog where the Irish were ostrisized by the English. The land is so rocky and barren that nobody could even grow food to eat—even to this day, you don’t see any agriculture except for a cow here and there, and some Connemara ponies.

The overall experience we had on our little roadtrip was so much better than a tour because we could stop the driver wherever we wanted, to take photos. I think he got a kick out of us, and enjoyed how much we loved his homeland. The cemetery was my favorite spot of the day. Morbid, maybe. But so full of history and sublime beauty…

Galway is known for their lovely swans…. The locals take excellent care of the bay in order to preserve the health and beauty of these creatures, and it’s a daily ritual for some to go to the bay and feed them by hand. We didn’t do this, but we did stop the car and get pretty close to a few!

Paige is out braving the elements for some fine art shots of the area…. I got this shot of her from the car. Brrrrr!

Anne took this shot of me at the cemetery. I look very pensive, but I like the gravity of the image.

if you look close enough at this shot, you can actually see the rain falling…

I want to be buried here—it’s so beautiful and somehow peaceful, despite the crazy winds off the ocean. All you can hear is the wind, and the sounds of the water crashing up onto the rocky shoreline.

We stopped midday for a pint and some lunch. I loved this vintage Beamish sign. If you haven’t tried Beamish, it’s a lot like Guinness, but even creamier. It’s my favorite, straight from the draught!

It got extremely windy again towards the end of the day. I couldn’t believe how dedicated Paige was. Again, I took this image from the warm car.

By the time we got home it was getting dark. I took this image from our window down to the street below us.

We cleaned up, and headed out for another pint at one of my favorite Galway bars, The Quays.

A good friend of mine just recently posted on one of my Paris entries, that it was clear that “my heart was present in every image” (thanks, Jenna);) It’s always been a dream of mine to live in Paris—I feel like I belong in that city and that I am in a constant alpha state while I am there. My dreams and hopefully future are in Paris.

But Ireland—oh, Ireland. Ireland is a place of the past— a place that I actually did once call home. I lived and worked in Galway, Ireland back in 2001 after I graduated from CU. Ireland is a place where my heart comes alive—bleeding and vulnerable. You see, I was there during 9/11 which in and of itself was quite surreal. Everyone remembers where they were, when they first heard about the terrorist attacks, and I was slinging Guinness at a little place called the Bridge Mills. Ireland is also where I realized that I was in love with Jesse. I had left him behind in America, and I felt like I could hardly breathe without him. I think I cried over a bottle of wine and Jeff Buckley every night I was living there. Jesse and I also had a tumultuous time in our relationship just one year later. We broke off our engagement and I went back to Ireland to get away from it all. Again, it was in Ireland that I realized that I couldn’t live without him. So, going back to Galway, Ireland with the 3 other girls earlier this month was quiet an emotional and spiritual journey for me. I was on the one hand so happy that I, for the first time had company, and that I could show the girls where I once lived, and on the other hand more lonely, somehow with them there….

So, I am wearing my heart on my sleeve in some of these images….

One of my favorite images that I took in Ireland back in 2001, was of a bunch of tangled fishnets with the same palate as the image below of the ropes. I felt that this image was an appropriate follow up and metaphor to the state of my life–tangled and messy before, straight and clean now… but both beautiful in their nature.

On the second night of our stay in Galway, I had to get out on my own. It was really cold and windy, and while I planned on walking up the coast to Salt Hill, it was just too cold. I ended up sitting for an hour or two at the pier to journal and make these images. What I didn’t know at the time, was that there were actually hurricane level winds (up to 200 mph) that made international news! The wind actually knocked Paige down twice, she said. I was just completely in my head and in my element, right there in the storm…

As you can see, I could barely hold my camera steady.

Check out this dramatic weather! The water is actually coming up and over the stairs and sidewalk down to where people dock their boats!

This is a self portrait that I made, just after I came in from the storm. It was taken at Nemo’s— a Spanish restaurant that has the most cozy, warm ambiance anytime of the day–let alone after coming in from freezing winds. And the wine is delicious, too!

Jesse and I are doing this…. We can all make a difference in this issue.

On March 29, 2008 at 8 p.m., join millions of people around the world in making a statement about climate change by turning off your lights for Earth Hour, an event created by the World Wildlife Fund.

Earth Hour was created by WWF in Sydney, Australia in 2007, and in one year has grown from an event in one city to a global movement. In 2008, millions of people, businesses, governments and civic organizations in nearly 200 cities around the globe will turn out for Earth Hour. More than 100 cities across North America will participate, including the US flagships–Atlanta, Chicago, Phoenix and San Francisco and Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.

We invite everyone throughout North America and around the world to turn off the lights for an hour starting at 8 p.m. (your own local time)–whether at home or at work, with friends and family or solo, in a big city or a small town.

What will you do when the lights are off? We have lots of ideas.

Join people all around the world in showing that you care about our planet and want to play a part in helping to fight climate change. One hour, America. Earth Hour. Turn out for Earth Hour!

Learn about Earth Hour events around the world.

I had the pleasure of working with another wonderful couple yesterday—-Shelby and James (and the newest addition to their family, Governor).  This threesome is simply adorable!  James is from Australia so his accent just tickles me, and Shelby’s smile is infectious…  I think she looks  just like Julianna Margulies, but warmer!   And what can I say about Gov? We couldn’t get more than 10 feet without someone having to stop and greet the little guy!  It was a really fun shoot, with a break in the middle for a pint at Mcloughlin’s.

Will you look at that smile?  She just beams!

….showing off that diamond!

The glasses are empty,  and the smiles brighter!  I love it when we can take a time out for a beer—-it always seems to take the edge off, and everyone seems a bit more relaxed with a camera pointing at them…

He looks like a Governor, doesn’t he?

How can one visit Paris and not go to Montmartre? It’s the home of Amelie Poulain and of course home to the Sacre Coeur and the notorious Moulin Rouge as well. Tolouse Lautrec once lived in Montmartre and sketched many beautiful scenes and portraits of people during the Bohemian revolution.

We spent hours there—in the rain, no less. I don’t know if i would ever want to live in Montmartre, but it is the most bohemian area of Paris–and I mean bohemian, like the “bohemian revolution” of love and art and freedom…. Montmartre of Paris, is like the Boulder of Colorado or the Eugene of Oregon, or the Haight Ashbury of San Fran. You catch my drift.

I bought the most amazing painting from this artist–Regina and I both really wanted it and she graciously let me buy it (Thanks, M’ lady). I wish I would have arrived two hours earlier just to talk to this man… He must have the most amazing stories of Montmartre as he has worked as a street painter on this block for 49 years!

Smile!

This image below is of Paige photographing in the rain. I was inside a covered patio drinking wine and smoking a cigarette—I took this through the wet plastic.

….and the scary cabbie who drove us home.

After shooting a bunch of fashion models, I really wanted to get some beautiful images of the ladies I was traveling with…. Especially Anne and Regina, simply because they generally hate photos of themselves. I made it my personal mission to get some beauties—ones that they could pass on to their children one day. I don’t know if they will love these shots, but I think they are beautiful and really capture the essence of who they are as women. It was funny—we did the whole tourist attraction where we took a little Seine river tour, but because I have done it three times before, I focused the entire cruise on shooting the ladies. (and a couple of people on the banks of the river with my 70-200). I know that these pictures don’t really have anything to do with Paris per se, but they were some of my favorite photos from the entire trip.

I don’t think Regina ever really beat the whole jet lag thing. She would stay up until like 4am and would somehow rise at 10am every morning. I call her the “vampire”.

…another couple of shots of the beautiful Anne Spagnuolo on our balcony.

I woke up one morning to the sound of live Manu Chao, whistles and screaming. There was some kind of protest going on right down the street—Manu Chao must have supported whatever this protest was, because I swear they were performing live… I didn’t make it down in time to get any shots of them playing, but I did get some shots of the protest. I must confess, that I was a little disappointed that the protest wasn’t more angry and violent—(not that I love chaos and violence) It must have been a friendly protest because people were smiling and eating sandwiches in between whistles. I tried to get the edgiest shots that I could given the nature of this march, but didn’t end up with anything Time Magazine would keep. 🙂

…another reason why I call Regina a vampire!

This is my favorite shot of Regina from the entire trip.

These shots below were all shot on the Seine river cruise…

I thought this image was hilarious…. I wasn’t really interested in getting the traditional Notre dame shots while on the cruise, but interested instead with the french “human condition”. This is a shot of a many different French personalities. I love the guy who seems bewildered that I was taking a photo of him instead of looking at the Notre Dame… little did he know!

 …. so even though we missed our first shoot, we did have a fashion shoot with a local Paris gown designer, Amarildine.  We worked with our two new French photographer friends, David and David and a couple of wonderful models, who braved very cold elements to help us get these shots.  First we met up with David and David and had a little time to kill before meeting up with the models, so we let ourselves loose in the Luxembourg gardens, where I snapped these first few shots.

I thought this shot was pretty funny.  It totally looks as if this man is checking out some legs…  maybe he is!

We started our shoot on Pont Neuf—the back light was perfect, and the models seemed to be having a good time.

David was such a darling—-he got a limo for us, which in Paris is almost unheard of! We drove from Pont Neuf to Bastille, to the old Opera, to Champs Elysees and finally, to the Eiffel tower.  It was like mini-tour of the city but while we were working which was even better!  I loved these shots that I took in the limo—although they don’t represent “Paris”, there seemed to be something really authentic to these shots.  The models were siked to be in a Limo, and the light was pretty nice, too.

This part of the shoot was probably the highlight of the day.  It was hilarious, actually!  When we rolled up in the Limo, all the tourists around the opera started to get really excited, thinking that somebody famous was in the car—especially when five photographers got out!  There were seriously about 100 people gathered around with their cameras, cheering and gawking.  I was actually more interested in getting all the people and their excitement in this shot, than I was about getting a perfect glamor shot.  Even though we were nobody’s, I still felt pretty freaking cool, and I think the models got a kick out of it as well!  If you ever want to experience something like this in Europe, hire a limousine!

I’ve been waiting my entire career to get a good shot of a bride with a cigarette!  This is kind of cheating because Oudrey is a model and not a bride after all, but I lept at the opportunity to get this shot!

Meet the lovely Paige Elizabeth

…and my new friend David!

 If my blog is anything like a personal journal that I keep—-I have fallen terribly short in content—or at least in updating content…  However, while I am about two weeks behind  I think I’ll treat these next few blog posts as a journal and sort of narrate my trip—minus all the personal stuff that most people would gag at or be horribly bored with…

We (Regina, Paige, Anne and I) arrived in Paris after a very long day of flying.  We were supposed to make a connection into Paris from Chicago, but of course (it was chicago afterall) were delayed and missed our flight into Paris.  We ended up having to fly from Chicago to London, and then finally to Paris.  Unfortunately, because of this delay I missed out on my first shoot that was supposed to take place the day we arrived at 2pm.  We arrived at 5pm, and had no daylight left.  Bummer! On the other hand, we were all very jet lagged and probably not in the best spirits for a shoot.  Did I mention that American Airlines lost our luggage?  Well, actually not mine.  I try to pack very light when traveling internationally and was able to carry on my luggage.  Regina, Anne and Paige, however were without clothes for a couple of days.

I think this shot below really represents how everybody felt the first morning in Paris.  Hee hee!   Once we sucked down a couple of cafe au laits, we were able to move on to the flea markets.  We went to Clingancourt to the Marche aux puces.

We only took the metro once–which was crazy to me…  I have always spent so much time in the metro on all my last trips to Paris. But on this trip, we were pretty much able to walk everywhere.  Paris is only 2 miles long and we were staying on the left bank in St. Germain, so all the “attractions” besides the flea market were within walking distance.  I will say however, that I have a love affair with the metro and kind of missed it on this trip.  Is this sick?  I got this shot of a canoodling couple on the one ride we did take.

Below are a few shots of the flea market….  best shopping I’ve done in years!  Seriously.

I love this image of Anne— not only the humor of it, but the beautiful view from our flat as well.

I decided that it may not be appropriate to post a bunch of nudes out there on my very public blog—-especially when those nudes are placed right below or above a sentimental wedding ceremony.  Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think there is anything to be ashamed of when it comes to the human body, I’ve just given this category a new home….  Julie Harris Edge : www.julieharrisedge.wordpress.com

Check out my latest and greatest—-if you dare….

I went out to a couple of hotels on Federal and did a very dark, Nan Goldin meets Helmut Newton shoot, just for me.  Enjoy!

http://julieharrisedge.wordpress.com/2008/02/28/the-no-tell-motel-shoot-seriously/

 Yesterday, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Rebekah Fuller—the most kick ass hair stylist out there… seriously! (Check her out at flirt Salon on Old South Gaylord). Rebekah wanted some images for a portfolio piece that she is putting together, so I told her I’d give it a whirl.  We all met at my studio and had a glass of wine while Rebekah cut, blow dried, and styled the hair.  I have never done a hair shoot before and didn’t really know what to expect, but I just kind of did my thing, while trying to “key in” on the hair.  I loved the models—and of course their hair was amazing too…

Check out Lillian’s super chic bob.  I love this cut on a mature woman–it frames her bones so well, too.

I’m currently trying to grow my hair out a bit so that I can have this cut that Lillian Jr. has—I love all the layers—and again—perfect framing for her face.

…And how rad is Caitlyn’s hair?  I could have photographed her all day—she’s got that edge!

And this is the lovely Rebekah—we didn’t take this photo yesterday, but I thought I should put a face with the name.  She’s truly a rock star!

Look at this little beauty! A gorgeous baby girl born to Rachel and Brian Lefort… She is only 3 weeks old, and she already rules the roost—but in the most wonderful way! Congratulations, Rachel and Brian—and welcome, Karina!

 Kirstan and Kyle are engaged!  We went out to Chatauqua park in Boulder yesterday to do their engagement pictures, and it was amazing weather!  I had short sleeves on and was comfortable the entire shoot!  Not to mention that there were no red noses to touch up…

Kristan and Kyle are such a hot couple! We did some really sweet shots, but I had fun playing up the fashion, edgy, sexy shots with the two of them.  They also just got the cutest little puppy named Diesel–who despite his size is quite ferocious!  (In a good way)  He of course made the shoot as well…

This is my favorite shot of the day… I love the light and the sweet moment between the two of them.
