• ANGIE WILSON PHOTOGRAPHY: THE BLOG

    Hello! I’m glad you stopped by. I am Angie Wilson, a portrait and wedding photographer based in Boulder County, Colorado, available for travel worldwide. This blog was created to act as a journal of my photography—from the images of weddings in the mountains of Colorado to the silly snapshots of my boys playing in the backyard, photographs for national ad campaigns, to fun and contemporary senior portraits. Go ahead and look around, and of course, feel free to leave a comment.

    If you're interested in having me photograph your wedding, senior portraits, fun family photos, etc. please contact me (for basic pricing info, please visit the pricing page). You can also visit my portfolio at http://www.angiewilsonphotography.com/.

Colorado Wedding @ the Manor House | Photobooth Sneak Peek

On Saturday Jim and I had the pleasure of photographing Michelle and Dustin’s wedding at the Manor House in Littleton.  Michelle and Dustin had us set up the photobooth during the reception which was OH-SO-MUCH-FUN!  Wedding photos and more captures from the photobooth coming soon…

Becca | Senior Portraits

Senior portrait season is in full swing and I’m enjoying every minute of it!! Here are a couple favorites from Becca’s fun senior portrait session earlier this summer:

This year I’ve added a couple of products to my line up, and one of my clients’ favorites seems to be the proof box. I love the way Becca’s turned out:

My Salsa Garden

Every summer since 2008 I’ve started a garden.  I write “start” because in 2008 and 2009 the garden never made it much further than the initial putting seeds into the ground.  For a number of excuses (Colin was a toddler and kept picking my tomatos before they were ripe, too busy to pull out the weeds, whoops–forgot to water it AGAIN, etc. etc. etc.) my ”gardening” attempts always ended as a bunch of weeds and dried up plants.  I made it a goal this year to give my green thumb one more chance to prove itself.  I shouldn’t speak too soon (afterall, my only harvest as of today has been one cherry bomb pepper and a handful of dill), but I think 2010 is going to be my year.

As a HUGE fan of pico de gallo, I planted mostly everything I needed to make it.  For anyone interested:

Pico de Gallo:

4-6 tomatos
1/2 onion (red or yellow)
1/4-1/2 bunch cilantro
jalapeno (however much you can handle) 
fresh lime juice
salt and other spices (I found a packet of salsa seasoning at the grocery store)

I’m starting to get the feeling that within the next couple of weeks I’m going to have WAY more tomatos than even I can eat (I have six different varieties of THRIVING tomato plants). 

How’s your garden doing? Have a favorite salsa recipe you’d like to share with me?  :)

Weekend In South Dakota | Jim & A Haystack

We road tripped it to South Dakota this past weekend (Mt. Rushmore!) on a VERY last minute whim.  On our way back to Colorado we spotted a field of hay bales which looked like a fun spot to stop and take some photos.

**There is NO PHOTOSHOP trickery involved here–I PROMISE!  Trickery, perhaps, but not photoshop or any other form of post-processing.  This is ONE exposure my friends.  :) 

**Not gonna lie and pretend like I came up with this concept.  This photo is 100% inspired by photographer Rodney Smith, whose work I came to love while I was a graduate student working as an intern at the BYU Museum of Art (the BYU MOA featured his photographs in an exhibition in 2005–I was in the design department and helped produce the gallery guide).

Kristin & Caleb | Breckenridge Colorado Wedding

 Kristin had her shoes dyed purple to match her wedding colors…loved it! Jim and I spotted this cute little mountain cabin while we were scoping out the area.  I couldn’t resist using it as the backdrop for a couple of shots with Kristin and her bridesmaids.The ceremony was held at the newly finished One Ski Hill Place, right at the base of the mountain. Still loving the purple shoes… Wedding Vendor Info:
