This couple took advantage of the beautiful autumn season here in Taos, NM. The fall foliage was at the height of their colors; the oranges and golds radiant in the photographs. The early sunset and cool temperatures gave the evening a wonderful fall-time feel.
August, September, and October are busy months for Poetic Images because of all of the high school senior portraits we do! Our “senior pictures” sessions last about an hour and a half and we shoot approximately 100 digital photographs during that time. We encourage seniors to bring up to six different outfits so we can capture the spirit of the student in clothing that mom/dad like AND clothing that the senior likes. We take photos of both traditional and contemporary poses so there are pictures that suit everyone’s taste!
This couple was wed at a private residence in Red River, NM. The wedding ceremony was officiated by the bride’s father and took place outdoors under the tall pine trees. There were about 40 guests with a wedding party of six people. The reception was catered by Guadlajara Grill of Taos, NM.

Carrie has taught Pilates, Yoga and Gyrotonic® for the last 20 years and holds certifications in all three practices. Carrie incorporates her technical understanding of the body in her Tango teaching. Mike’s Tango teaching is influenced by his years of study in martial arts.
