This lovely bride and groom came from Texas to Taos for the wedding of their dreams!
The bride’s mother and sister are florists so of course every flower was in perfect place, a wonderful display of beauty and color!
The wedding party wore royal blue which was vibrant under the grey skies. The San Geronimo Lodge was so photogenic with the beautiful grounds and wonderful adobe architecture.
This couple closed the sale on their new Taos home and were married in their new home’s backyard, all in one day! We had a gorgeous summer day and beautiful views as we all celebrated a wedding and a new house! The bride and groom broke out in smile almost every time they looked at one another. There was a perfect breeze and a bird singing during the entire wedding. Every part of nature welcomed these wedding nuptials!
These dapper men were wed on a perfect summer day. Taos’ four diamond resort, El Monte Sagrado, was an extremely “green” venue with beautiful green grass fed with grey water! The Episcopalian ceremony was short and intimate with maid of honor and best man giving speeches and the beautiful couple delivering extremely emotional vows.
I have shot a lot of same-sex weddings this year! Because Taos is a popular destination wedding location, AND because it is legal for same-sex couples to get married in New Mexico, there are a lot of couples traveling from afar (MANY from Colorado, Texas, and Oklahoma) to exchange wedding vows and rings at a marriage ceremony here in Northern New Mexico!
We love photographing women in the prime of their pregnancy! A prenatal shoot with Poetic Images only takes about 45 minutes and we get so many wonderful and memorable images! Some women want to show their bare belly, some do not, and either way is fine. We encourage mommy to bring along a few different maternity outfits, and a favorite baby onesie or booties for some more creative photographs; we always get those traditional baby bump shots as well. We shoot all maternity photos after 35 weeks so we can get the full scope of that beautiful, pregnant, round body. Look ahead and call us today schedule your third trimester photo session.
My favorite shoots are when I have the opportunity to capture the precious smiles of children. My first photography job was actually a “mall job” taking photographs of kids. My manager was at least 10 years younger than me and I had to wear a necktie, the experience was humiliating. However, I did learn some “tricks” to get the young ones to smile, and this knowledge has been totally invaluable to me.
This little guy was “text book” in responding to my smiling tricks. We documented these smiles in less than five minutes AND had a blast doing it! I’ve been photographing this little man since he was just days old. I love my job.
