A Wedding in an Earthship in Taos, NM

A Wedding in an Earthship in Taos, NM

Lindsay and Ryan took an Amtrak train across the country to elope in Taos, New Mexico! They chose to stay in a few different off-the-grid Earthships while they visited Northern New Mexico, and have their wedding ceremony in one! The Earthship Biotecture home was a beautiful spot for their morning wedding ceremony. Dan Jones wrote a unique ceremony which spoke about the earth and mountains around the community. Lindsay wore a dress that she crocheted herself and Ryan wore a seersucker suit because his made-to-order suit did not arrive on time. They laughed and enjoyed the struggles and triumphs it took to travel to make their wedding day happen. It was beautiful

New Year’s Day Formal Elopement

New Year’s Day Formal Elopement

On New Year’s Day I had the pleasure of photographing this formal resort elopement in the round room of El Monte Sagrado. Howard Bad Hand led the soft vows after a quiet sage smudging ceremony. The wedding couple was blessed as were their rings and quiet prayers were offered. The tobacco ties were gorgeous and because the “something blue” of the wedding.

Wedding in Large Catholic Church During Pandemic

Wedding in Large Catholic Church During Pandemic

This bride was one of the calmest brides I’ve ever met. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, Karen’s wedding ceremony was rescheduled, and then rescheduled again. The venues that she originally chose changed, and changed again. Her guest list went from over 300 to less than 100 guests. Her wedding party was uncertain on attending. The state of New Mexico completely shut down, and then partially opened and shut down again. And Karen handled everything with poise and grace! By wearing masks for most of the ceremony, socially distancing their guests, and minimizing all contact with friends and family, Karen and David were able to experience their 2020 pandemic wedding and it will be one to remember!

Wedding at First Presbyterian Church in Taos, NM

Wedding at First Presbyterian Church in Taos, NM

This bride and groom were long time Taos locals before moving away and settling up in Colorado. The church, First Presbyterian of Taos, is conveniently located in the middle of Taos next to Kit Carson Park and a beautiful church for a wedding ceremony in a sanctuary. The exterior and interior of this old church are the traditional Pueblo style: adobe on the outside and adorned indoors with vigas on the ceiling and a simple cross on the wall. Afterwards the photographer took this couple out for a few photographs with the great Taos Mountain. Congratulations to lovely newlyweds!

First Wedding Photographed in 2018

First Wedding Photographed in 2018

This bride and groom had never been to Taos before their wedding; their best friends (from Albuquerque) suggested this resort in Taos and the wedding location was decided!
It was the 5th of January and it was over 50 degrees on this warm winter day. We did the pre-wedding photos outdoors and then moved into a gallery with a pretty view of treetops! Congratulations to Lori and Matt and here’s to the first wedding photographed in 2018!
