Artistic Guild Wedding Photography Award

I was very humbled to receive an International award for my wedding photography from the Artistic Guild of Wedding Photojournalists International . The world competion for these awards reflects the work of many of the finest wedding photographers in the world. My award was for the image attached here. The only other Colorado resident photographer to place in this competion was my friend Otto Schulze. Otto moved to Denver from South Africa and worked with me last year as a second shooter. I saw his talent then. I scored in one category but Otto scored in several gaining a 4th place overall in the competion.

Stanley Hotel and St. Malo's Chapel Wedding

What an amazing venue combination for a Northern Colorado wedding...St Malo's Chapel and the historic Stanley Hotel !

Also, keeping the day rolling along smoothly was wedding planner Lindsay Jarvis who was also fun to work with. Here is a slideshow of the day.
