This past year has been a big one for us! With Noah being born right in the middle of wedding season, we were out of commission for most of May-August. As a result, we’ve done far more engagement sessions this year than weddings. I have had so much fun getting to know the amazing couples that we’ve met and photographed over the last 12 months. I cannot wait for their weddings and I feel so blessed to know each and every one of them. We cannot begin to explain how much joy our clients bring to our lives! Thanks to you all.
Thanks so much to my family. Your constant love and support shows in the way we capture joy in our pictures. You are all amazing blessings to us - as parents, as a brother, as sisters, as babysitters 
, and as friends.
Finally, thanks to my wonderful husband. It’s because of our love that I find myself connecting so well with people who love each other.
Love to you all,
Annie
The following are the my 10 favorite pictures of 2008! Watch the slideshow to see the other 50 I chose! 
This Saturday we photographed Kristen and Clayton’s wedding at the Loveland Castle. Not only did they have a unique location, they chose to give their wedding a Star Wars theme! For someone who has only watched one of the Star Wars movies (and not even one of the original three!), I was interested to see how things would go! They did an absolutely fabulous job making their wedding beautiful!!! We had a fantastic time!
Kristen and Clayton :: Thanks so much for making us a part of your special day!!! You two are such a perfect match and we know you’ll be so happy together!

While Kristen, Clayton, and their family were setting up, Toby and I got to take our time photographing the details. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous!
We had such a beautiful day!!!
This was the goblet they used in their ceremony… Such fantastic design!
The garden at the castle was so pretty and I got some beautiful nature shots! This was one of my favorites!
This design was on all of the hand rails around the castle… I thought it was such an artistic touch!
The Star Wars details were pretty cool, too!
This was my favorite of all the Star Wars details!!! All of the guest received their very own lightsaber!!! How awesome is that?!
LOVE this shot!!!
One of my favorites…
Doing “the claw” pose is a tradition in Kristen’s family!!!
Did I mention that the gardens were gorgeous? = )
Here’s the family “claw” pose!!!
I love this picture of Kristen’s niece, Winter… So cute!!!
I know it’s a longer series than I normally post, but I love these shots of their first kiss as husband and wife!
Toby covered the close-ups. This was my view!
I love this shot of Kristen, Clayton, and Kristen’s grandparents! The look on their faces is beautiful…
Awesome cake!!!
My favorite of the cake shots! Love the vignette effect on this one!
Great costumes!
We had some fun using the light from Clayton’s lightsaber! = )
We ended the night with some pictures of the castle all lit up! It was gorgeous!!!
