It isn’t usual for me to write a themed post, or rather, the theme is usually WEDDING. I wouldn’t start now, except that it is America’s 232nd birthday today, and I am editing a wedding that just oozes Americana.
Randy and Kelly’s mountain wedding was a photographers dream. I couldn’t help but be blown away by how friggin unbelievable Avalanche Creek Ranch was. When viewed through the lens of this post, Randy and Kelly’s wedding featured prominently, and in no particular order…dogs, mountains, the Boston Red Sox, beer, dancing, horseshoes, trucks, hammocks, flip-flops, barns, bears, kids, classic American paintings, porches, livestock, flags, fishing, and a TON of fun.
It was simply incredible. The details were great, the crowd was energetic, and Randy and Kelly (and Cooper) were a complete pleasure to work with.
Congratulations to the couple, and happy 4th of July. I know Randy and Kelly are probably seeking out a good old American microbrew to celebrate the day…on their Croatian honeymoon!
Avalanche Creek Ranch is right at the base of stunning Mt. Sopris, outside Aspen.
Cooper just hanging out.
Kelly looks amazing.
What’s more American the French Kissing?
Not a perfect American Gothic, but pretty good. That is Kelly’s serious face.
American guys love hammocks.
And the Boston Red Sox.
I think this song was Tom Petty’s American Girl…or maybe I just want it to be that.

The song was actually Living on a Prayer by Bon Jovi. What says more American than a Jersey band!?!
