{Krissi & Ben | Wedding at Upper Schmid Ranch…

January 25, 2018

My favorite season is Colorado is in September when fall is slowly changing to winter. The aspens are super yellow and lively and the mountain tops are covered in snow. It’s the perfect contrast of light and dark and is a gorgeous time of year.
So you can only imagine my eyes when I pulled up for Krissi and Bens gorgeous wedding at Upper Schmid Ranch. It’s the perfect vibe of rustic beautiful woods and absolutely stunning Mountain View’s. And Krissi and Ben knew how to make it even that much better. A mobile bar, karaoke, multiple doggie guest, Polaroid photo booth, and a cupcake station.
It was certainly a day to remember and a wedding I absolutely loved being apart of.
Enjoy!

{Samantha & Phil’s Wedding at Casa Marina | KiKi…

October 19, 2016

I love a couple that drinks Champagne straight from the bottle, and one who makes you feel like family. I love a couple who kisses before you even ask them to because they just can’t help themselves. I love a couple that smiles all day even if it rained out there beach wedding.
Who is this magical couple? Sam and Phil!
I cannot express the happiness I had photographing and editing this day. You would think there would be a couple downers because this beach wedding was completely rained out, but oh no! So many, many smiles and laughs, and forehead kisses (my favorite). I just loved all the love these two had and am so excited I was apart of there day. Check out all the laughter and love below. Enjoy!

{Madalyn & Neal's Wedding at Club Continental | KiKi…

September 8, 2016

Madalyn and Neal could have gotten married in jeans in an empty field with just their friends and family surrounding them and the day would have been just as gorgeous as it really was. I say that, because in the short time I have had the honor of getting to know Madalyn and Neal, I have realized they are the ones that light up the room, are the life of the party and make you feel special even if they don’t know you. We felt like family all day and we even each got a hug from 6 different people immediately when we walked in the door as they said “We are so happy you are here!”
They, along with everyone at their wedding, were an absolute joy to work with. I was even a little giddy editing the photos because I had such a great time! Anyways, check out one of the coolest couples I have had the absolutely wonderful pleasure of photographing below!
Congrats you two! Enjoy!

{Kayla & Cory’s Wedding at The Peach Barn |…

August 10, 2016

Kayla and Cory have that infectious, happy, beautiful kind of love. And their smiles show it. They were such a fun couple to photograph. We would have these beautiful moments with golden sunlight and then they would start making goofy faces and joking around with each other. I love how easy it was to tell how great of friends and perfect they are together.
We had an eventful day that included some of Cory’s homemade beer, home cooked food from Kayla’s family, songs sang at the reception by friends, an incredibly colorful sunset and an even more dramatic evening filled with lots of Kayla’s dad dancing and getting the party started. It was wonderful to spend the day with such loving and absolutely fun people. Check out all of their wedding below.
Enjoy!

{Cara&Chris Wedding at Milliken Creek | KiKi Creates |…

May 25, 2016

An Australian Wedding in Napa Valley California with the liveliest group of 7 people I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy a leap day with. A gorgeous destination wedding timed perfectly with the mustard seeds blooming to give us this beautiful yellow color right at sunset. They took a few sips of wine during their vows, said I do, and then the entire wedding (of 7 people) hoped in my giant suv and took an adventure around the Napa Valley vineyards. Check out all the beauty below..

Enjoy! KiKi

Photographing these two was so fun that it instantly put more excitement towards photographing their wedding day. This session was all smiles and a little bit of playing around with the drift wood….but waking up to sunrise with these two was definitely not a bad way to start your morning.

{Jenny+Brad Engagement | KiKi Creates | Washington Oaks State…

April 1, 2016

Jenny + Brad must have heard me say “It is just so perfect out” about 1,000 times during their engagement session. Between having the Gardens at sunset to ourselves and catching the goldenest of golden hours. And then ending it with the dramatic rocky beach at sunset with even more seclusion to ourselves… It was a match made in heaven, just like the two of them (you see what I did there?). Check out the lovely sunset engagement session below. Enjoy!

Beyond the overwhelming kindness of Rahma & Arsi’s Family, I was showered with rich colors, smiling faces, tons of dancing, and a wonderful little first look at Treaty Oak Park. Someone even got engaged right next to us as we did the first look! This two day affair was a lovely cultural experience that I absolutely loved photographing. Congratulations to a beautiful couple!
