Vail Wedding Deck: Paige & Pat – Part I

So, I won’t lie.

I had a heck of time narrowing down my favorites of Paige & Pat’s wedding!  By the time it was all said and done, I was at about 325 favorites! So with that said, I’m just gonna go ahead and do TWO posts.  I mean, if you get married on top of a mountain, there’s just too much great scenery to show!  And honestly, with this wedding, a lot of great photojournalism to show too!

Paige & Pat, yours was a day full of grace, laughter, and LOVE.  Thank you so so much for having us.  I smile when I think of you two.  Thirteen years in the making.  You guys did it!  And what a glorious day it was. Stay tuned tomorrow for your amazing bride & groom portraits on top of Vail Mountain plus some great photojournalism from your reception.

SO much love and joy to you both!!
René

With 20 years of experience, I bring a calm, steady presence to your most meaningful days. I specialize in documenting relationships over time—from weddings and anniversaries to babies and families—with a love for black-and-white imagery, honest moments, and photographs that belong in albums, not just on a feed. There are no forced poses or “pretend to” prompts here, only space for what’s real. I’m not just here for the highlight; I’m here for the history you’re creating.

And I can't wait to capture your story
