Michelle & Paul | Spring Garden Wedding

May 13, 2016/ Jennifer Blair

I cannot believe I am finally sharing these images. My beautiful sister married the man of her dreams in March, and it was the most incredible day. So many people helped to make this one of the sweetest celebrations of marriage that I have ever witnessed. It was extra joyous, because we had such a miraculously sunny, Spring day. The forecast showed a terrible front coming through the weekend of the wedding, but by the grace of God the rain held off and we had blue skies! Helping her plan this day will remain one of the highlights of my memories with my sister. I'm so incredibly thankful to everyone who went above and beyond to make this day the perfect gift for Michelle & Paul. Their wedding day was a true representation of all that they are - lovely, bright, joyous, and most of all showed their love for Christ.

She Walks in Beauty

February 16, 2016/ Jennifer Blair

I've found myself going in a fresh, different direction this year. It is exciting and terrifying at the same time. When I consider just how many other artists there are in my field, it can be disheartening. Beautiful shots are really a dime a dozen. So I've been digging deep. What fuels my art? Surely it is more than merely capturing "beautiful moments" because beautiful moment are everywhere. I have years of experience under my belt now, but I never want to stop reaching, learning and growing at my art. For me it all comes back to vision, my lens for viewing the world and everything in it. I am an artist. It's who I am at my core. Intuitive. Seeking deeper meaning. New ideas flow constantly. Daily inspiration is a must or my soul shrivels up. I view life like poetry, like a piece of music I am working to compose...never finished, always adding another line or refrain. It dawned on me a few months ago, my visual art should represent my musical and poetic bent in more of a real way.

Alex & Matt | Intimate Destination Wedding

January 25, 2016/ Jennifer Blair

Matt & Alex have had quite the journey to get to their wedding day. After meeting in Chicago they had secret crushes on each other and friends for over a year. Not long after they made things official, Alex was transferred to New York but moved to Denver to be together. Since Alex's family lives in Dallas and Matt's in Denver, they decided to go for an intimate destination wedding with their closest friends and family. The 30a area has a special meaning to them since Alex's family lived there for a time as she grew up.

Alex & Matt | Alys Beach Destination Photographer

December 09, 2015/ Jennifer Blair

There is something so incredibly romantic about doing an engagement session the day before your wedding. I'm so glad I was able to sneak away to Alys Beach with Alex and Matt for a few moments before their rehearsal dinner. The days before a destination wedding is so full with friends and family coming in to celebrate, so it's nice to get away for some moments alone in the midst of festivities. It's easy to see the eager anticipation these two share about tying the knot! Thank you for allowing me to capture your love, you two!

The Silence Between | Colorado Editorial No. 1

November 20, 2015/ Jennifer Blair

It is such an honor to have this shoot on Style Me Pretty's front page today. It has been a dream of mine for quite some time now. Mozart once said, "Music is not the notes, but the silence between." In a way, images are the silence between moments as well. Throughout this whole editorial, I sought to encapsulate that idea, the beautiful dichotomy between movement and stillness. Colorado seemed a natural and ideal location. Nature itself is a perfect contrast between grandeur and simplicity. It is the the ultimate in-between. It is not too much of one or the other. These ideas were the basis for this shoot. The objective was to create grandness in the simplest way possible, and to express the mystery of "the silence between" in a pensive manner.
