James and LaDawn

James and LaDawn were all smiles all day long. I don't think I have one photo of LaDawn not smiling! They held their ceremony in Hawaii about a month earlier, and decided to have a reception in Denver for everyone to help them celebrate their new life together. Can I say their two little boys totally melted my heart. Sooo cute!

The family was game for anything as we took portraits in the park, which makes everything more fun. We avoided getting the bride and groom doused by the sprinklers just as we were setting up for their last portrait.

I do have to apologize to LaDawn and James - Sorry that I didn't eat at your reception, the food looked amazing, but sometimes it makes me sleepy, and sleeping on the job wouldn't be good :) Congrats to you both and to your new family!!!

Bridgette and Daniel's Wedding - Phipps Tennis Pavillion

Bridgette and Daniel's wedding was held the same day as my own. A week after they decided they wanted me to shoot their wedding, I had to change my own date to a week later than originally planned, which landed me right on their own date. So, we discussed some options, and they decided to stick with me and I would find photographers, Scott Cejka, and Kristy Rowe, to shoot under my name for the day. They did an awesome job! From the photos, it looked like a really fun wedding. I laughed my way through editing these.



Daniel has a 1000 mega-watt smile ... always!

I had never heard of this - all the bridesmaids signed the bottom of Bridgette's shoe for good luck.

She looks like an old time movie star here

One of my favorite photos of the whole shoot
Love all the expressions!
So sweet - as they walk down the aisle.

Thank you Kristy Rowe and Scott Cejka for shooting this wedding for me!!!

Bridget and Daniel - Engagement

These two were such a pleasure to take pictures of - they are so comfortable with each other and with the camera. You can see why the camera likes them - they are beautiful!
We joked around Civic Center Park as the sun sunk lower Tuesday night, taking pictures wherever we wanted. They were game for anything. I am so sad that I won't be there to take their wedding pictures (we share the same wedding date!), but I know Scott and Kristy will do a wonderful job. Now on to the photos....

University of Denver Law Review Board

Had about 20 minutes to shoot some portraits of the 2008-2009 University of Denver Law Review Board. Most were pretty standard shots, but they were up for some fun photos at the end. Look for some of them on the Supreme Court in 20 years... :)

Snow day!

In need of braces.
After a foot of snow fell yesterday, Tucker was begging to play outside. So as I shoveled, I threw snowballs for him to catch. He loves water ... in any form.
Tucker in the 1970s.
He's so overexposed...

House remodel

Shot these photos for a contractor who remodeled almost the entire home in Denver. Beautiful work. It seems the recession doesn't affect some people. Wow!

New postcards

I just got these postcards printed up and I'll be dropping these around town at cafes, restaurants, businesses that will let me.

On the back it says: Bring the postcard with to our first meeting, and if you book a wedding, you'll receive a free engagement photo shoot. If you book a portrait session, you'll receive a free 8x10 print.

Would you like me to send you one? Lemme know!

I'm a'twittering

I've jumped on the bandwagon. Yikes, I feel like a lemming. I'm still feeling my way around, so bear with me. But if you look to the right, you can follow me on twitter. My twitter name: KaraPearsonFoto

FREE engagement sessions

If you book with Kara Pearson Photography sometime during February, March or April 2009 you will receive a free engagement session. Just a little more bang for your buck during these hard times.

NOMO part II

So here's more photos from our little impromptu photo shoot and during their concert. Unfortunately, it was already dark when we wanted to take pictures, and I was only armed with one flash. What a great group of people and musicians - check them out - www.nomomusic.com
