Smile when you see this man! Ben Cook, Official Wedding Photographer.
The Master of Ceremonies, Brad rolling it in Fruita, CO...He's so large he's hard to fit in the frame! Really he's like almost 8' tall.

Groomsman, Matty "the Crossbowmaker" Armbrustmacher riding at Heil Ranch

Maid Jen Alford and el Groom atop Independence Pass (outside of Aspen,CO)...notice Pop Pop t-shirt!

The Bride and Main Maid Kristin Wachtel, also known as K-dub, check out a hummingbird's nest in Todos Santos, MX.

Home sweet home! Our little slice of the mountains high up in Coal Creek Canyon including A-frame, shed (for bike storage), greenhouse (only way we're gonna get tomatoes at 8200ft) and studio/workshop. Plus all the pine trees you can shake a stick at!

The Studio and Workshop...notice protective raised boardwalk to keep you above the teeming masses of voracious voles!

Das Chalet! Home of Rose, Matt, Betty, some fish, some hardy plants, a few hundred voles and a couple Stellar's Jays. Who needs walls when you have a really big roof? The Chalet is midway between the wedding site and the reception.

Bride and Groom to be atop Miller Rock with the snow-covered Indian Peaks (many great hikes, camping, etc.) in the background. Wedding location and the Chalet are a similar distance from the high peaks as this shot.
