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!

Spring Mountain Wedding at Narrow Trail Ranch in Estes Park Colorado

April 30, 2013

Breanne & Jon’s got married at an intimate wedding celebration on Saturday at Narrow Trail Ranch which is a private estate in Estes Park, Colorado. The timing was perfect, nestled right between the late spring snow storms that Colorado has been getting this year. The sun was shining and it was just a perfect day with close friends and family in the mountains of Estes Park. Breanne’s dress was one of my all time favorites; a stunning display of intricate beading and she looked amazing in it. I am a huge fan of Downton Abbey and it reminded me of a modern take on a gown that would be worn on that show.

Breanne & Jon,
You two are so obviously meant to be together:) Watching you and your family spend a relaxing afternoon together was so uplifting. You are all such wonderful people. Thank you for choosing me to photograph your beautiful celebration!

Toasts!

I have the kiss shot too, but I just really love this one:)

There is a huge gorgeous long table at Narrow Trail. Perfect for a dinner party.

A beautiful Estes Park day!

Narrow Trail Ranch is a big beautiful house with lovely window light all over.

Breanne & Jon married on the patio.

Not fair! Some girls get all the looks:)

One of my new favorite dress shots. Love the mountain (with snow still on it!) in the backdrop.

During the ceremony, Breanne & Jon had each guest put one flower each into the vase to create a beautiful bouquet.

Yay!

The real cake almost made it to the house but on the last hilly climb it toppled over. Luckily Vows, which is located in Estes Park were kind enough to let Breanne & Jon borrow their display cake for photos. What nice people they are over there!

Would you guys believe that they totally set themselves up like this? They are naturally gifted at posing themselves:)

My favorite!

Breanne, you should be a perfume model:)

How pretty is this?!

Breanne’s nephew was so adorable and followed her around all day:)
