Welcome to my spanking new blog! It’s way overdue. I think it will be easier to navigate, better to look at and overall a more efficient place for me to post images and speak my mind…. I’m very excited about it and will be blogging more often now, I promise.

I was especially excited to kick off the new blog with this post. I haven’t posted a wedding yet this season, because I wanted this one to set the tone for my 2011 season. It’s a special post for me because it’s my baby cousin, Evan and his stunning bride, Jessica’s wedding –and they of course hold a place in my heart. Along with being one of the most fun wedding parties that I’ve photographed, Evan and Jessica and their friends are also extremely sentimental and spiritual. They can go from a bud light to a pensive prayer in 60 seconds flat and it’s perfectly fitting. Evan cried when he saw Jessica walk down the aisle and shed a few tears during the toasts which made me proud and Jessica was a complete lady with a hankering for an occasional swill of bourbon. I love these two. And I loved their wedding. It was so refreshing to be back out at the farm in Eastern Colorado, and the fairgrounds couldn’t have been a more perfect place for Evan and Jess, as that is where they first met. I also have to mention that the food was hands down the best food I’ve ever had at a wedding. True, home grown beef brisket, mashed potatoes and a fountain of grape kool-aid to tote. Delicious.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Jessica and Evan. Your wedding knocked my socks off, but your hearts and spirits are what moved me to tears. I love you.
