Valerie is one of my good good friends and I was so honored to be able to photograph her wedding! She grew up in Vail, CO and I used to live there years ago. But we both lived on Maui together, where our friendship really blossomed. We both knew the beauty of the mountains that would be the backdrop to the wedding and I also know how gorgeous Val is and that the photos would be stunning. Val ended up marrying a friend of hers from middle and high school, they reconnected and fell in love.
The ceremony was actually at their old middle school's athletic fields! Of course the field was surrounded by the mountains and aspen trees- beautiful. After there ceremony we took photos around the grounds- Riley knew of an old outhouse that was neat for photos. Then on the way to Vail Village I asked Riley to pull over at this cool antique store we drove past on the way to the ceremony. Photos came out awesome!! The entire day was wonderful and I loved being able to be there for her as her friend and her photographer.
Here are just a few photos...
