Being able to do what I love is a powerful thing.  Even more so when what you love is paired with who you love as well.

Sarah and I grew up in the same town, with the same people, and went to the same high school.  So needless to say, her & Nick’s guest list included many members from my hometown community whom I just adore!  What a joy it is to turn the corner and run into friends you went to kindergarten with and even other RTP brides! This wedding was such a DELIGHT.  Sarah & Nick went to great lengths to see that we were well taken care of and loved on.  Their families are some of the kindest and made us feel right at home, and even made sure I was taken care of even after the wedding with trip to the Broadmoor Spa!

These two planned a classy day and said their vows at Spruce Mountain Ranch, alongside the glistening fields and foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Not a detail was overlooked from the custom made dresses for Sarah and the flower girls, to the cake stand which belonged to Sarah’s great grandmother, and a gorgeous antique handkerchief Sarah carried with a blue family sapphire sewed to it. Surrounded by lots of family & lots of friends, and a wedding party comprised mostly of family, these two were soaked in love, intention, and laughter.

Nick & Sarah, I appreciate you two more than you can imagine.  Thank you for your complete and utter trust throughout this process and giving me the freedom to do what I love, with whom I love!  It’s been a complete honor to be your photographer and work with your families.  I love you guys and cannot wait to see you again soon!

With love & joy,
René
