Warren Village Millionaire's Pampering Extravaganza


This post is a bit overdue but thought I'd share it anyway...

Here are some portraits I shot of the Millionaire's Pampering Extravaganza this spring, a charity event held at the Denver, Colorado First Unitarian Church for the residents of Warren Village.


Warren Village is a residential facility for single parents and this pampering day provided makeovers for these beautiful ladies entirely by volunteer stylists.

I volunteered for this pro-bono shoot to photograph the ten women who were drawn from a lottery for a portrait session with me. Last year, we stayed inside and did some studio-style portraits but this year we went with a more creative outdoor shoot.



Monica & Aaron's Breckenridge Wedding

Portraits in the lodgepole pine forrest.

Monica and Aaron drove up from Texas with their friends and family to tie the knot at Breckenridge Ski Resort.

The ladies show off their flip-flops embroidered with their names - a gift from the bride.

The wedding party

Elevator...

High up at the base of the mountain, the morning wedding celebration started with a ceremony on the patio of Seven's Restaurant at the base of... yep, you guessed it... Peak 7.
The two exchanged vows overlooking the beautiful Summit County mountains. The weather held out and the summer sun shone bright on their day.


Grandma and the grandkids!

After a gondola ride to the base of Peak 8, the party continued just below the terrain park at One Ski Hill Place. Congrats Aaron and Monica! Come back to Breck soon!
