New camera for a new season

Guess what came in the mail today??!! My new camera body … the Nikon D700. I could not be more excited about this. It came just in time for my trip to Indiana where I’ll be spending lots of needed time with my college girlfriends, but also doing an engagement session for one of them. Wedding season is here and I can’t wait to get started!!

Jen+Pete | Engaged

I’m finally getting around to getting this session up on the blog. Life has been a little crazy lately.

Jen and Pete’s engagement session was my first session in Colorado as a Coloradan. They are an awesome couple and were so much fun to photograph. I loved watching how Pete interacted with Jen and how sweet he was to her. We went around Boulder, getting a variety of settings (mountains, forest, coffee shop, and more), which was great for me! It was my first time in Boulder and Pete was so sweet to tell me all the great places and fun things about Boulder.

I wish you guys the best on your wedding day and the start to your married life!

PS: I’m so happy you brought along your pup for the session!

Colorado, here we come!

That’s right … Jeremy and I are moving to Denver, Colorado and taking Kristin Mae Photography with us! We couldn’t be more excited about this move and change in our lives. I’ll admit, I’m a little nervous … not knowing too many people in Denver, moving away from family and our church … it’s a scary thing. In case you didn’t know, I’m an extrovert. What does that mean? I NEED people around me, relationships that grow in depth and love. I trust God that he will put friends in my life and me in others lives to fill that role.

I’m anxious to see how our business will change and GROW. With a great wedding market in Denver and all over Colorado, I have high hopes for Kristin Mae Photography. I’m excited to have variety of city weddings and mountain weddings, classic/formal weddings and laid-back rustic weddings. My mind wanders and dreams and so I’m excited to see those ideas become reality.

Utahans! Don’t worry, I’m still up for traveling to Utah for sessions and weddings … after all, you made Kristin Mae Photography possible for the first two years, the beginning years … not to mention, I do still have family in Northern Utah. So, give us a shout if you want to book a wedding or session and we’ll figure it out!

The photo below was taken on our drive through the mountains last weekend on our way to Denver to search for a house (taken with my iPhone … no judging). PS: We did indeed find a house and can’t wait to share some photos after its all decorated.

Love, Kristin

Sandra - We wish you all the best in Dever, CO. I know you guys will love it. Jim loves CO!:) You will make friends easily there, and people will love your photography. I feel so lucky we found you before you move. I can’t wait to see you in June.February 29, 2012 – 9:13 pm

Sandra+Jim | Engaged

Sandra and Jim are a fun, laugh-a-lot, adventurous couple and I had a great time shooting their engagement session. They were so natural during the session, which made it easy to capture their personalities in the photos. I can’t wait for their June wedding in the mountains! It’s going to be beautiful … and fun. Share some love by commenting below for these two love birds!

Sandra - Thank you so much Kristin for these beautiful photos. I love them all. You are an excellent photographer. We can’t wait for our wedding day in June. Thank you again! :) February 29, 2012 – 9:08 pm

Linda+Angelo | Wedding

Ooooo!!! I cannot tell you how excited I am to finally be posting this wedding. This wedding was back in November, but it has been so busy around here this winter that I am just now getting it up on the blog. This was a very special wedding for me, and I’ll tell you why.

The bride, Linda, is my cousin and one of my best friends. She and I have laughed together, cried together, traveled together, and shared so much together. She was my maid of honor in my wedding and I could not have asked anyone better to play that role.

Angelo, the groom, is from France (just like Jeremy). Actually, Jeremy and Angelo went to school together in France! So, how did they meet you ask? Linda decided to be an au pair in France for 9 months and little did she know, she would meet her husband (which is funny, because I joked with her before she left that she would meet and marry a French guy). Jeremy’s parents are Christian missionaries in France and Angelo became a Christian through their ministry. During the Christmas holiday, Jeremy’s parents invited Linda to stay at in their home, and that was where it all started. They had their first date and through language barriers and all, their relationship grew.

So, there’s the short version of the story. I was honored to be a bridesmaid and photographer for Linda and Angelo’s wedding. It was tough being both, but also a lot of fun and I’m thankful I got to see all of the special moments they shared with each other throughout the day.

Linda is absolutely beautiful!
First look: Linda and Angelo prayed in French together; I was crying but pulled it together to get some good shots of this beautiful moment.
Loved our bridesmaid dresses … it will definitely be one of my shooting dresses for weddings.
There is a story behind this crazy hat. Our Aunt Kate created this traditional … it is the fertility headdress … need I continue? There’s a poem that goes along with the headdress that I shall refrain from putting on the blog, but it is hilarious. The headdress is passed from bride to bride and always adds some fun to the wedding festivities.
 Congratulations Linda and Angelo!! We love you.
