Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield

By, July 17, 2014

Sandra and Craig had a gorgeous wedding at Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield, the outdoor, rustic location chosen for their beautiful Colorado wedding. The natural outdoor venue is nestled along the banks of Deer Creek, with the Denver Foothills as the backdrop. The indoor rental facilities are historic buildings, providing classic reception opportunities.

As photographers, we wanted to take advantage of this natural outdoor setting, and create detailed images with a fashionable and timeless vibe. As you’ll see, Sandra and Craig’s charismatic personalities really shone through! :)

Hotel Del Coronado | Historic Island Paradise

By, March 28, 2014

Nestled on the shore of one of America’s top ranked beaches is the famous The Hotel del Coronado. This historic venue is is a playground for Hollywood films, celebrities, presidents and royalty. Naturally, many couples want to take part in the excitement, and choose this beach resort for their big day. A national landmark, The Hotel Del boasts Victorian architecture, and has many nooks and crannies where we love to photograph. Between the beach and resort, the property is a dream for couples to wed, and a local institution. Here are a few highlights from recent weddings we’ve photographed at the Hotel Del Coronado.

Smokey Eye Wedding Look with Keely Marie Makeup

By, December 20, 2012

My favorite part of working in the bridal industry is making brides feel more beautiful on their wedding day than they have ever felt before. There is nothing more amazing than to see a bride happy and joyful. That’s why I love doing what I do!

Recently, I was the makeup artist for Katie and Fred’s big day!  Initially, Katie, Fred and I met for a trial, to pin down the style that we’d use for the wedding. Fred, Katie’s sweet husband, wanted Katie to spice up her makeup and go glamorous. We were determined to find the perfect bridal look, taking Fred’s input into consideration, with a style that would “pop.”

Katie and Fred liked the smokey look with a light cheek and light lip.

Katie’s smokey bridal look was a great match for her sexy and sultry persona, which you can see here!

All eyes on Katie! She had show-stopping makeup that perfectly complemented her soft hair and elegant dress.

For my typical bridal services, I offer full airbrush makeup, lash application, tattoo covering, and airbrush tanning. I travel to every bride on her wedding day, and I can accommodate large bridal parties. If the bridal party is larger than 6 people, I bring an assistant to help get everybody ready on time.

A bold lip and cheek with a bold eye can look too overdone. With a sultry and smokey eye, it is best to keep the cheeks and the lips more neutral, to keep focus on the eyes. Katie pulled off this smokey eye/natural face combo beautifully.

Katie chose airbrush foundation for her wedding day, which kept her makeup flawless the entire day. She was sweat-proof, tear-proof and photography ready! It was a great choice for any bride!

Most often, I do trials with brides prior to their wedding day. I recommend booking a trial at least 3-4 months before your big day. For my out of town brides, I make sure to clearly understand their bridal makeup vision so I can still achieve the perfect look! One tip: book as early as you can, as certain months tend to be busier than others!
