babies
I specialize in natural, non-traditional portraits of children (generally ages 0-2). I strive to capture babies as they are in real life and avoid contrived, cookie-cutter, prop-heavy shots. This means an organic pose-free portrait shoot where I take my cues from the little one and see how our time together unfolds. I shoot either in my home, my client’s home or a favorite outdoor spot. If you see the same little faces appear in my work it is because I am lucky enough to work with my portrait clients year after year as their families grow. It is one of the great delights of my life. Email me if you are interested in photographs of your little one(s) and we will create the perfect package.

Cat & Greg’s Sarasota, FL Wedding by Recherché Photography is Featured in The Knot!
We are sooooo excited & flattered to be promoted in the Florida edition of The Knot as a featured wedding. Not surprised though. Just because Cat & Greg’s Sarasota Great-Gatsy-styled event was hands down one of the most sexy, sublime and sophisticated weddings of all time. Cat is a long time friend, an artist, a photographer, a magazine editor and a designer. So of course her wedding rocked the house. All I did was show up and push the button a few times! 😉 Dying to see more images of their wedding? Click here to see the blog post!
Kuddos and thanks again and again to Keren Lifrak Weddings & Special Events for making SURE this wedding got where it needed to be: day of AND in the magazine!! You’re the best!! And I LOVE your new website! Esp. that very first pic of YOU!!! xoxo
Annie & Nick’s Boulder, CO Wedding at St. Julien Hotel & Spa
There is perhaps an excessive amount of photos in this blog post but Annie & Nick’s wedding at the St. Julien Hotel & Spa in Boulder, CO was brimming over in exquisite details & tender moments. But most importantly, it was drenched in LOVE. Love for each other, their family, each of their guests- and their vendors. Which resulted in piles of stunning images. I have said for years that I have the most wonderful clients in the world, and this couple takes the cake. As an artist & emotional creature it is hard to keep my heart out on the chopping block but Annie & Nick have made it all worth while. I hope they love their images as much as I have adored working with them and their family.

Heather with Calluna Events assembled a fabulous set of wedding professionals to pull off Annie’s dream wedding. Jessica Shineyda with The Face Lab transformed the already adorable Annie & her bridesmaids + mother into works of art. 
Had you any idea it was this much fun to work with a bride?? This shot really sums up how all the wedding vendors felt about working with Annie and her mom! Andy with Andres Alfredo styled the girls’ hair. He is as sweet as he is talented!
What is the best reason for a June wedding? PEONIES. Thanks to Brighter Day Floral, every corner of Annie’s wedding was dripping in these sublime arrangements. 
Due to rain, the ceremony was moved inside. I have NEVER been happier to shoot an indoor wedding thanks to Denver Design Works!! Can you believe this room?? It took my breath away- all night! We kept commenting that this backdrop, originally intended for outside, would have gotten lost. Sometimes it is for the best our plans get changed. What a treat to work with a team of unbelievably creative professional artists. It made my job so very fun!
I was so relieved Annie & Nick braved the drizzle for a quick photo shoot! Nothing is better than natural rain-cloud-diffused light!! 
Sumptuous cake by non other than the fabulous Tee & Cakes. Do NOT pull up their website if you are on a diet. Within one second of glancing at their blog I promise your mouth will be watering!! 
A very proud father of the bride!
(A guest grabbed me while shooting candids during the cocktail hour and said, “Get a shot of this- he is the bride’s father!!” I thought, “Geeze, it would be pretty sad if I hadn’t figured that out by now!” But I’m glad he grabbed me because this image is so beautiful!)
A shot with the Flatirons completely misted over. So enchanting! 
This might be my favorite shot of the day!!!
Can you see me in the background wearing my “signature” skirt that I found in a vintage shop in Dublin? I’ve worn in to almost every wedding I’ve shot in the last 8 years! Caroline shot this beautiful image. 
Although I haven’t yet seen the video, I can say that it was wonderful working with the Lupher Arts Videography team! And I always love the video light at the reception! 
Another seamless & resplendent event by Heather Dwight, the owner of Calluna Events. I have no idea how she pulls off perfection every single time with her gracious & unruffled spirit. Her attention to detail is impeccable and she treats everyone with the utmost respect & kindness. It is always such a dream to work with her. 
It’s not often that a photo of the photographer shows up on the blog! Here I am- Regina Mountjoy of Recherché Photography! My fabulous assistant, Caroline Colvin, took this shot of us as I was saying my goodbyes. It really is a trick to be “unobtrusive” with all that gear I’m packing!! But I’ve got to be ready for anything!!
