Matt and Marisa's Wedding in Grand Teton National Park...

A few weeks ago Jessica and I photographed our first destination wedding and we couldn't have gone to a better place. We drove up to Grand Teton National Park for Marisa and Matt's wedding and it was amazing. We stayed in a great little cabin at the lodge where the reception was and we had time to drive through Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Jackson Hole. It was certainly different than photographing a wedding in Denver or even Colorado because we were so far away. But we also got to spend more time with Matt and Marisa and their families. Which was wonderful because they were so inviting (Matt's mom makes great biscuits and gravy) and because we truly were able to see what makes Matt and Marisa the great couple they are.

We really love getting to know all the couples we work with and creating a great relationship with them and we always love meeting their families at the wedding. So spending an entire weekend with them really made our trip and our job that much more enjoyable. I know I posted a few images recently but here's a few more of our favorites...

Coors light and pocket knives are really all it takes for the groom to get ready before the wedding.



We took a bunch of pictures of her cowboy boots...because they were really cool.



More cowboy boots...


Beautiful bride...


And yet again more cowboy boots.


Beautiful bride again...


All Marisa wanted was a picture in front of her mountains.





Beautiful bride again.





And here's a few of the happy couple.



I love the happiness and excitement of their first dance.



We're going to be photographing a few more destination wedding this year and we're very excited about it. By the way we have a new blog coming in the next few weeks so stay tuned.
