Sonia & Mike

I had a great time shooting some engagemnet photos for Sonia and Mike this past Sunday. I met the couple and their motorcycle down at Monument Valley Park for the shoot. Chris and I will be shooting their wedding this September 8th at The Briahurst Manor in Manitou Springs. When Chris and I met with this couple initially, there was an immediate rapport. They are the type of clients that we (pardon the pun) "clicked" with immediately. If the fun we had at their engagement shoot is any indication of the wedding, it is going to be a great time. Cant' wait guys.

Congratulations Chris & Holly

Chris and Holly were married this past Saturday July 21st, 2007 at The Lodge on the campus of UCCS in Colorado Springs. It was beatuiful day for the outdoor ceremony that went off without a hitch. Chris and I have known Holly for several years and were honored to be a part of her wedding day. Special thanks to Ryan at Black Forest Photography for coming out and giving us a hand with the shoot. It was our first on since Baby Gaven's arrival, so Ryan's assistance was greatly appreciated. More images to come. . .

Introductions

Just took the time to get some more images of Gaven and the family posted. Most are from the hospital and the first 24 hours or so of his life. Check them out here.

Gaven Allen Mann

Our sweet little boy has arrived. Gaven was born Wednsday July 11th, 2007 at 1:11 a.m. He weighed 6lbs 9ozs and was 20 inches long. We all came home this afternoon and all are doing well. A little rest is the only plan for now. I promise to have more images up in the next few days. We'll keep you all posted. . .

Congratulations Gene & Amy

Gene and Amy were married in an evening ceremony on June 30th, 2007 at the Briarhurst Manor in Manitou Springs, Colorado. This couple was great. They actually had to use the minister from the other wedding going on at the Briarhurst that evening. Long story short, the minister for whatever reason didn't show up on time and they went with plan B. The couple took it in stride and didn't seemed phased one bit by the last minute substitution. The fill in minister handled the ceremony like a champ and everything went great. The reception was MC'd by Rob from Blue Moon Entertainment whose wife had given birth to a baby boy about twenty four hours earlier. He was the consummate professional who even stepped in to help me with organizing formals because my wife, Chris, wasn't feeling up to a shoot. I would recommend Blue Moon to anyone. I have worked with all of their DJs and they are all great. To see a few more of Gene and Amy's images please click here.

Congratulations Robert & Mindy

Robert and Mindy were married June 22nd, 2007 at the Black Forest Bed & Breakfast in Black Forest CO. I apologize for taking so long to get this posted, just been busy preparing for the baby. Robert and Mindy had one of the most heartfelt ceremonies that I have ever photographed. I found myself laughing as well as holding back tears throughout. They were surrounded by family and close friends who were all very nice and cooperative. There was a little rain after the ceremony, but it cleared up in plenty of time to allow us to get the rest of their images.
