elcome to the journal for April O’Hare Photography! Here you’ll find all of my latest photographic outings with the couples, families, seniors and small businesses that I get to work with and make beautiful photographs for. You may also see a personal post here and there discussing my life or my travels with my teeny family of one husband and three cats! Sometimes I even write advice articles with tips to help make your photo experience better which you can check out under the “Educational” category.  

Take your time and look around! Type in the place where you’ll be getting married in the search box to see if I’ve photographed there before. At the bottom of the page I’ve highlighted some of my favorite sessions and weddings from the past. Grab a drink and have fun going down the photo rabbit hole!

The wedding I’m sharing on the blog today is a good old fashioned wedding that took place at the bride’s parents home in Boulder, Colorado. I say old fashioned not because of the styling or details or anything like that, but because it seemed like a wedding straight out of a movie back when people […]

Last week I photographed a beautiful spring wedding at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Raquel and Matthew really did a lovely job incorporating their love of chemistry into the details of their wedding. They used clear beakers as vases and had cool little chemistry sets where you could build a model molecule (wedding […]

Over the weekend I had the pleasure of photographing two weddings here in Colorado. The first wedding took place at Mountain View Ranch which is the groom’s family property in Pine, Colorado. It’s a really cool rustic location with majestic views of Lionshead and Cathedral Peaks. It looks like an old scouting type of camp […]

I met Julie, aka Sunny D. Struction at derby. I was stoked when she asked if I would be available to photograph some headshots for her. We decided to give Denver’s Wash Park a try but discovered that the flower beds weren’t planted yet so we just wandered around the neighborhood instead for these photos. […]

My friend and I took a boat over to Djurgarden in Stockholm to check out the really neat Vasa Viking Ship museum. They pulled this wooden ship up from the ocean floor in Stockholm 333 years after it sank. It’s amazing how much of it they were able to salvage. Apparently it sank due to […]

Wendy & Phil have been planning their wedding for over a year now and on Saturday it all came together in a winter white wonderland on top of the mountain at Arapahoe Basin. I don’t think I’ve ever photographed such a snowy wedding before. Despite the chill, it turned out just beautifully and was the […]
