FEATURED GALLERY
Danae & Michael
A real wedding at Hillside Gardens in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Danae was a detailed orientated bride who loves color and 35mm film, and even the rain during her and Michael's ceremony couldn't keep the love and joy from display. With stunning florals, garden party vibes and an adorable pup appearance, it is easily one of my favorite summer weddings to date.
