Chris Humphreys Photography Blog | Wedding photographers based in Denver, CO | Shoot Worldwide » Welcome to the photo blog of Chris and Katie Humphreys!

Back in April I shot the smallest wedding I’ve ever had the honor to be at.

There were 4 people…..  Including the bride and groom!

Here’s a wedding I photographed from earlier this winter up in Boulder.  One of the great things about shooting in Colorado is embracing the different seasons in each shoot, which we certainly did with Noel and Andy’s wedding (scroll down to see the bridal photos we did at Chautauqua State Park).

Here’s a few of my favorites throughout the day!

In the attempt to document what happens throughout the day, one of my favorite times to catch people interacting is before the ceremony.  People always seem to be in quiet (though evidently sometimes not THAT quiet!) conversation and it’s a great time to document who all was there.  Plus, it’s these interactions that brides and grooms NEVER see because they’re hidden away before the ceremony.

I always love these moments right after the ceremony ends and emotions are still high.

Noel was QUITE the trooper for braving the cold weather in her strapless dress!  We only shot out here for 7 or 8 mins, but that was more than enough to grab some great images of the two of them with the great backdrop of the Flatirons.

The reception was set up wonderfully back t the St. Julien.

I’m back!  Please excuse my far too long of an exodus here from blogging!  I have a lot of posts to catch up on, so I’ll jump right in and try to update the blog here every couple days with some of the fun shoots that I’ve been privileged to be a part of the last few months!

Back in December I got the incredible honor of shooting both my first same sex wedding as well as a wedding for two good friends of ours!  Tara and Vanessa are an incredible special couple who we have such an obvious deep love and respect for one another.  Tara was one of the first people I met when we moved here to Colorado, I was looking for a chiropractor, found her practice online, and we’ve been friends ever since!  (You can check out her website here, I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for a chiropractor!)

Anyways, Tara and Vanessa tied the knot at the Red Rocks Amphitheater, it was an absolutely wonderful celebration for all who were there and who know Tara and Vanessa even a little bit.  :)   Here’s a few of my favorite images from their day:

Tara and Vanessa, thanks again so much for the opportunity to be a part of your day and thanks for being such fun friends!  Katie and I are both privileged to know you both!  :)

In early October, I was blessed to head down to Dallas Texas (and to have Katie come down with me!) to photograph Amanda and Brian’s wedding.  Amanda and Brian are an incredible close couple with incredibly cool families that we are so lucky to have gotten to know.  I knew from their engagement session back in Dallas a few months back that Brian and Amanda would b an epic couple to photograph and they certainly did not live down that expectation!  ;)

We came down Friday night and photographed both their rehearsal…

As well as their rehearsal dinner….

I loved this fun moment between Amanda and Brian’s mom…

The next morning everyone got ready down at the historic Belo Mansion in downtown Dallas where both the wedding and the reception were taking place.

Loved this image of Amanda’s mom getting ready…

Loved this moment between Amanda and her dad before Amanda got in her dress…

A few of the details…

Amanda and Brian like to fool around…. As evidenced…  ;)

Despite being goofy, Amanda looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL.

Of course, Brian didn’t look half bad either!!

Loved this moment that Katie caught between Amanda and her mom before Amanda went down the aisle…

One of my favorite images from the day, right before Amanda’s dad gave her away.  I just loved this moment between the two of them.

Wonderful moment between the two of them after the ceremony…

And then when they saw their parents…

We had just a few mins to catch some images of the two of them before the reception… here’s a few of my favorites:

Love these reception details, including the gorgeous cake by Frosted Art.

And also this AMAZING groom’s cake of Brian and Amanda’s dog, Fu.  I’ve seen photos of Fu, and this cake was an absolutely amazing replica!

First dance…

Parent dances….

A few from the rest of the reception….

Brian and Amanda had an absolutely fantastic band called Limelight out of Dallas come and play… and let me tell ya… These guys could PLAY!

Brian and Amanda thank you SO much for inviting Katie and I to come down, celebrate with you both, and to document your incredible wedding!  You both are amazing and we can’t wait to visit you both next time we’re down in Dallas!!
