This is one of those weddings that you don’t want to share because you’re holding onto it so tightly. I know that fellow photographers will understand this feeling. When Sutton, owner of the incredible planning company By Sutton, called me and said, “I have this incredible couple and I know you’ll be the perfect fit for them!”, I knew it was going to be a good one. She went on to tell me that they were having their wedding on Golden Ledge, which is a mountain in Telluride, Colorado. That’s literally all that’s up there…a mountain. That means that Sutton and her team completely build Julie and Chase’s ceremony and reception site. When I showed up the day before the wedding, to photograph their family champagne toast, my jaw hit the ground. I’ve never seen a ceremony site as beautiful. You had to walk through these gorgeous trees to get to it and it felt like magic. You’ll see in the photos bellow that this was a dream wedding, but what you won’t see is the way these two families love. I’ve never seen bigger cheerleaders for their children than Julie and Chase’s parents. Not to mention, the support from their incredible siblings. I wanted to be adopted into that family so badly.

Virginia and Josh had such a classic, gorgeous wedding that took place on the St. Augustine Green in Rosemary Beach. Rosemary Beach is one of my favorite locations to photograph wedding and families because of the clean and neutral aesthetic. I love that the couple decided to keep all of the details just as classic and clean. The lush greens against all of that white was just breathtaking.

How do I know when someone is a dream client? Let’s start with the email I received from Melissa THE DAY AFTER SHE WAS ENGAGED to John.
“Hey Shannon!
My name is Melissa. I have been following you and your work and falling more and more in love ever since you did my best friends wedding in July of 2016. Nuni & Zeth Ford was the wedding. You were elegant and professional & it was almost as if you weren’t even there. But the details of that day that you were able to capture was indescribable. All of that being said, I’m engaged! He proposed last night. I know I might be overzealous in contacting you this quickly, but I would love for you to be the one that captured our big day. We are flexible on the date but we were shooting for November 16, 2019, and wondering if you would be available? Look forward to hearing from you.”
