The rain cleared just in time.

After a torrential downpour that lasted about 30 minutes, the skies ceased their storming so Holly and Cody could have their outdoor garden wedding, just as they planned.  Without even a delay.

Not that Holly and Cody had been concerned.  As we wandered around the Inverness Hotel taking their portraits earlier in the day, Cody explained that they weren’t worried about rain.  They knew there was no accounting for Colorado weather, and no planning for it, so they just figured it if was meant to be it would be.  I think that’s just about the best attitude you can have when planning an outdoor wedding around here, and I was thrilled for them that it was meant to be.

Holly and Cody were married last weekend in a lovely outdoor ceremony at The Inverness Hotel.  Photos of the reception to come in Part Two!

I love an expressive bride, and Colleen was definitely expressive on her wedding day.  Laughter, tears, hugs – you could read her happiness all over her face.  It was a wedding day full of joy and emotion, one of my favorite kinds to photograph :)

Colleen and Tony were married last weekend at the Manor House in Littleton.  The views from The Manor House are just gorgeous.  You can see Red Rocks, Downtown Denver, and all the way down to Arrowhead Golf Course.  It’s a beautiful spot, to be sure, and a really nice place to take photos.  Many thanks to Colleen and Tony for being willing to sit in the grass in the middle of a field :)  Thank you also to Krista for second shooting with me, and to Kayla my wonderful assistant/wedding coordinator.
