Any time I can travel home, I’m happy about it. But when I get to travel to my home state to photograph a wedding, I’m always super psyched. Growing up in New Mexico, I took for granted the culture, history, and beautiful architecture. One of the good things about moving to Las Vegas to become a Wedding Photographer, is that being away has made me realize all of the cool things New Mexico has to offer.
When Andrea contacted me about photographing her wedding, I was of course, so excited to have the chance. She’d chosen Bishop’s Lodge, which is one of a series of lovely Santa Fe Wedding Venues (for either ceremony or reception, or both!), and I’d never had the chance to photograph their before.
To top it off, on their wedding day, the weather was extremely bipolar – in a good way! It gave us sun, then clouds, then snow…..then snow with sun shining through! It was AMAZING.
We had so much fun, traveling around downtown Santa Fe, getting to know each other….and I had the best time watching Joseph and Andrea interact with each other. Joseph didn’t think he’d be into the photos, but I have to say, that guy is a natural GQ model. And Andrea, I didn’t have to give her ANY direction, she was just perfect with every pose!! So, this couple was a photographer’s dream. 😉
They got married across the street from Santa Fe’s famous Rose Garden, at Santa Fe Church of Christ. After the ceremony, Andrea had picked a few locations for photos, the Rose Park, Bishop’s Lodge, and in between a snowy trip to the Santa Fe Courthouse. The courthouse is unlike any building in Santa Fe, and I was so happy to hear that it was where Andrea wanted to take photos!
Enjoy reliving their day!
