Cow + Sheep + Chickens + Great Pyrenees + Mud = Good Times

March 28, 2010 – 7:21 pm

Haley Poulos, who is an amazing photographer and lucky me, my assistant this wedding season, invited me out to Berthoud, CO this morning for a little farm fun. I was not sure quite what to expect, but it ended up being quite the educational experience. I was a little restricted as I only had one camera, and one lens, which is not usually how I roll, but I think its great practice as a photographer to learn how to make what you have work for you. Haley was kind enough to loan me a 70-200 for a little while which I think I made good use of for a couple shots. Many thanks to the owners of the farm, as well as the animals for putting up with Haley and I……

When Amanda and Rowdy first contacted just a couple weeks ago and asked if I would be interested in photographing their elopement, I had to control my excitement as this is totally my type of wedding. There is something thats great about a large wedding, but deep down inside, I have learned over the years that the less bells and whistles your wedding has, the more I personally enjoy it. There is a more relaxed mood,  a lot less stress, and more genuine emotion. Amanda and Rowdy decided that they still wanted the traditional attire, bouquet, fancy dinner, and the best part, a PHOTOGRAPHER!!!! I personally had a blast as I was able to rely on my photojournalism roots most of the time as until later in the day, everything was absolutely real and un-staged. We had some time in the evening to putter around downtown Aspen to stage a few shots, but I believe my stronger images came during the real stuff. Many thanks to both Amanda and Rowdy for trusting me with such a special occasion, and putting up with my crazy requests later in the evening……
