Melissa and Dustin are so cute! I was excited to get to see them again this past weekend–we really do have the nicest people as clients!
Melissa and Dustin share my love of books, so I planned to take them to the adorable Black Cat Books in Manitou. We had a great time inside–I love hanging out with people who love books as much as I do!

The bookstore is located in an old dairy (I KNOW!). I shot this through a very old window:

This really is the book Dustin was reading to Melissa. It had some excellent advice. ![]()


Walking around town…

So cute!


(By the way, I *love* Melissa’s polka dots!!)

Melissa has the best, most joyful personality!! I love her smile and laugh!

“Joy” has been on this wall for a month or two–I’ve been trying to figure out how to incorporate it into a shoot. I really like this angle!

We had some BEAUTIFUL light at Garden of the Gods!


We almost killed Dustin with this one!

Melissa and Dustin, we absolutely love working with you!! You are such great people and we’re thrilled that we get to photograph your wedding! We know it will be chalk full of love and joy!
