Jamie and Dwight at Pastures of Plenty
December 10, 2009
•Weddings
Needless to say, this wedding wasn’t last weekend… I’ve been the biggest slacker this year when it comes to blogging. It’s a time thing and has nothing to do with liking some weddings more than others. I had the best clients this year and plan on blogging every single wedding (eventually). Plus things are slowing down this time of year and I’m suddenly feeling quite productive!
Jamie and Dwight’s wedding is at the top of my list of “very favorite weddings ever attended”. They were married at Pastures of plenty, one of my favorite venues in Colorado for starters, but I think the real reasons that I loved this wedding so much, was because it was intimate with about 30 guests, super laid back, and felt straight out of a 1940’s movie. There was vintage decor, croquet, badminton, lavender lemonade and the best blue grass band ever to grace a wedding (I so wish i could remember their name). To top it off, Jamie and Dwight went out of their way to make me feel like a guest–they even stuffed my arms with two bottles of organic wine when I left. It’s fun for me to recap this day as I blog it…
It’s been a couple of months, but Congratulations are still in order, Jamie and Dwight!
Jamie and Dwight saw each other before the wedding—not to do photos, we did those after the ceremony. They simply wanted to spend their entire day together and frankly didn’t care about all the “rules” and “traditions”. Dwight was even in the room when Jamie put her dress on. It was quite refreshing, actually. And very romantic. This is a shot of Jamie and Dwight in the guest house at Pastures of Plenty, just chillin’.
I’ve photographed many a groom’s face when he catches the first glimpse of his bride, but I don’t ever think I’ve captured a groom’s expression while he watches his bride dress, until this day. Pretty priceless.
I loved that Jamie walked herself down the aisle…
Jamie was pretty bummed about the weather as it was cold and rainy the morning of her wedding. But her Mom put in a little request to Jesus for some sunshine and er prayers were answered when the sun came out just in time for the ceremony.
Gorgeous salads!

-What a beautiful wedding and a beautiful couple. I have known Jamie since she was born (the same year as our daughter). I have known her mom, aunt, uncle, and grandparents most of my life. I wish Jamie and Dwight a lifetime of love and friendship. They will go a long way with equal amounts of both.
-Can you tell me who provided the music at this venue?
-Hi Julie,
Looking through your work, especially the wedding portfolio. Your images are very refreshing and a pleasure to look through. The light is slightly different to work with over here in Ireland! Very Inspiring work.
Thanks
