Surrounded by their closest friends, we captured their jaw-dropping bride and groom portraits in what felt like a winter wonderland.

A DREAMY SPRING WEDDING IN VAIL, COLORADO

Sarah and Keah, both Denver locals, chose the Sonnenalp Hotel in Vail for their intimate spring 2020 wedding. That’s right, amid Covid-19. While the guest list was smaller, the couple was thrilled with the cozy atmosphere. However, Sarah couldn’t wear a ‘real’ wedding dress like she had wanted.

Fast forward to their second anniversary in the spring of 2023, Sarah’s dreams of wearing a traditional wedding dress were coming true. They reached out to me, and we had a blast with a small group of their closest friends, getting ready for their special day. Later, we all headed to the East Vail parking lot. We embarked on an adventure to a winter wonderland at the end of a local golf course. Then, with the help of their favorite hype people behind me, we spent two hours taking stunning wedding photos on that sunny spring day. We captured the couple’s vision and created the wedding images of their dreams.

I am grateful that Sarah and Keah trusted me to capture their love story. Furthermore, this is a wonderful example of how you can have the wedding portraits of your dreams anytime
