Sweet Smashing Love

When it comes to the cake cutting it is always interesting to see what couples will do. Will they by dainty and gently place the cake in their loved ones mouth or will they smash it all over their face. Both make for great pictures, but check out how much fun these couples are having…

I hope you have a great Tuesday!

2011 Wedding Trends Are Here!

All Digital — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 19:47:31 +0000

2011 is finally here! With 2011 weddings it is interesting to see the upcoming trends. Of course photography and videography will never fade and photo booth is a popular asset to any wedding but what do we expect to capture for the year. OneWed has a great list that seems relevant, check it out:

OneWed’s Top 10 Wedding Trends for 2011:

1. Sophisticated Elegance Returns

It’s back to basics with elegant, sophisticated style in 2011. Wedding decor will be simple and understated, with modern design elements trumping DIY touches. Scripted calligraphy, custom monograms, and classic wedding cakes embody this trend. Brides will wear pearls, and grooms will ditch the Converse in favor of more
tasteful wedding day kicks.

2. Outdoor Venues- Where It’s At
Couples tying the knot in 2011 will gravitate toward outdoor ceremony and reception venues. The raw, minimal backdrop of an outdoor setting leaves room for personalization and customization, a major perk for creative, hands-on nearlyweds. Lakeside venues, vineyard locations and spaces situated alongside sprawling mountains will dominate, and they’ll be spruced up with personalized touches that represent the bride and groom.

3. Grey is the New Black, Crazy for Navy
Gloomy no more, grey is the neutral IT color for 2011 weddings. Organic and natural, shades of charcoal, dove, stone, oyster and shell will be incorporated liberally into wedding color palettes and paired with vibrant hues to make the colors pop! And while grey remains the talk of the town for 2011, navy blue (and other deep blues) are definitely on-trend for the coming year. Wonder if Prince Will’s royal wedding has anything to do with the crazy for navy trend… what do you think??

4. Mad for Metallics & Bold Color Palettes
Whether it’s two bright hues with a metallic accent, or several metallic shades used together, brights and metallics will be popular choices for wedding color palettes in 2011. Gilded gold, shimmery silver, and sparkling champagne will used alone or with accents of yellow, purple or teal. And since metallics make such a bold statement on their own, couples will scale back over-the-top decor in favor of a more restrained style aesthetic.
We’ve seen it down the runways, now it’s hitting weddings!

5. Big Ball Gowns are Back
Dramatic ball gown wedding dresses floated down 2011 bridal catwalks in droves. Wedding dress designers draped, ruched, and layered clouds of tulle, power netting, and chiffon to fashion wedding dresses with limitless volume. The outcome? Fairytale-inspired bridal style and whimsical wedding dresses for 2011 I Dos.

So classic to photograph!
6. Grooms Take a Walk on the Stylish Side
Grooms are taking a stand in the name of fashion. Their tux choices will no longer be dictated by some “rent 5, get 1 free” deal. Instead, they’ll chose formal looks that represent their unique style. Bow ties will replace classic long neck ties, and embroidered dress shirts, engraved cufflinks, stylish lapel pins and the color of the season- grey- will grace the white aisles.

7. Wedding Invitations Go Green
The green weddings movement continues full speed ahead in 2011. From totally paperless wedding invitations and save-the-dates, to stationery printed on 100% recycled paper, invitations have truly gone green. Couples can find all they need with sites like WeddingPreParty (enabling online RSVP and party planning) and Nearlyweds.com (offering coordinating stationery and wedding websites).

8. Luxurious Textures– from the Dress to the Tablescape
Luxe textured fabrics will bring a sumptuous, opulent vibe to 2011 weddings. Wedding dresses will feature 3D applique, layered light fabrics (tulle, lace, chiffon), romantic ruffles, oversized florals, and illusion fabric with eye-catching beading. Textured linens will be layered to dress up reception tables, chair covers may be embroidered or beaded, and branchy centerpieces and floral arrangements will captivate wedding guests.

9. Ethnic Influences, Cultural Wedding Details
At long last, brides and grooms are embracing and showcasing their unique cultural traditions and ethnicity. Whether it’s a religious wedding ceremony ritual, traditional wedding day garb, cultural cuisine infused throughout the reception dinner, or wedding decor with bold, ethnic prints, you can’t help but embrace the unique cultures and ethnicities of couples in 2011.

10. Revved-Up Wedding Receptions
Who wants the best day of their lives to end? Not couples and guests in 2011, that’s for sure! Couples will plan a post-reception after party lasting into the wee hours of the night with drinks, entertainment, dancing, and snacks so that wedding guests can party all night long!

Summer Lovin’

All Digital — Thu, 30 Sep 2010 17:26:55 +0000

It has been a very busy summer here at All Digital Studios, and the wedding season is just about wrapping up, but we are still very busy preparing for next year! We were very lucky and got to shoot at some new great venues this year that all served as beautiful backdrops for our beautiful brides. Check out some of our favorite pics from The Stanley Hotel, Denver Botanic Gardens, and The Golden Hotel.

Boys will be Boys

All Digital — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 20:48:52 +0000

We had a first! For the first time, the groom was dropped at one of our shoots. We occasionally like to have the groomsmen pick up the bride or the groom for a fun energetic picture. Well, that’s what we got. It probably wasn’t so much fun for the groom, but everyone got a good laugh. Other than that, the day went off without a hitch, and the Cielo at Castle Pines served as a beautiful backdrop for the Katie and Rick’s special day.

Sylvia and Shaun

All Digital — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 22:01:48 +0000

Sylvia and Shaun have two things to celebrate on the fourth of July now. They got married this year on the fourth and man was it fun! They are a young, fun, energetic couple. I think that you can tell by the pictures…see for yourself.

Sky High Hope Camp

For those of you who may not know, our owner, Cal Cheney, is a cancer survivor. He now takes every opportunity to give back to the cancer community. He recently took some photos of the kids at the Sky High Hope Camp for kids with cancer in Ft. Collins. Check out some pictures of these amazing kids having a fabulous time.

Ilene and Matt

The Bella Sera is a hidden gem in the heart of Brighton. We love shooting weddings at this beautiful and romantic venue. Ilene and Matt’s wedding at Bella Sera was one of the prettiest I’ve had the pleasure of shooting. Take a look!

Hansena’s Senior Portraits

All Digital — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 19:58:02 +0000

It’s senior portrait season! We love to see kids that show their personalities during their photo shoot. Hansena is a great example of that. Not only did we do some traditional shots but we also took some pictures of her in her dance outfits as well. These are a few of our favorites.
