We celebrate and showcase women on their wedding day for obvious reasons. They are the centerpieces, swathed in silk, satin, tulle, lace and beading. But the guys clean up well too, even when they dress down.

From 3-piece suits, to shirt sleeves and cowboy boots, the grooms tend to show off their personalities next to the classic or frothy princesses by their sides. It’s always a treat to see how a wedding theme is going to be played out in the guys’ wardrobe when we roll up with our cameras and gear.

Some dress for the day, some for the season, others for the venue and even more because it’s a chance to “dress up” for the biggest (or one of) days of their lives. I love the vests, Morning jackets, rolled up sleeves, khakis, Chuck Taylors, tuxes and Sunday suits. Surrounded by their closest friends, these grooms all ooze confidence, playfulness and wedding day excitement.

We’re looking forward to seeing what the men will be sporting this year. Bring it, fellas!

We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden.

We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.
