Becky Young Photography {THE BLOG} bio picture

Hi friends!

Welcome to the Becky Young Photography blog. I am a professional wedding photographer in beautiful Colorado. I am married to my wonderful husband David and we have 2 crazy kitties (no really, they're crazy). I am so blessed to have such an amazing life!

Here, in my little slice of the Internet, you will find pictures and updates from all my recent weddings and portrait sessions. I will also post updates on my life as well, including my adventures in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado as well as other fabulous randomness, like my obsession with cupcakes (well, really anything that has sugar in it!).  I'm not the greatest writer in the world and I'm definitely lacking in the grammar department, (as my mom likes to frequently point out) but the one I thing I will be is honest, down to earth, and real. 


If you are interested in having me photograph your wedding, please click on "Contact" in the above menu. While you're here, I'd love for you to also follow me on Twitter and Facebook

Stephanie Osborne - Awwwwwwww I remember this day! Congrats to my favorite married couple. I hope you are enjoying every single minute of Mexico! Anxiously awaiting your lovely vacation photos when you return :)

carol - you guys haven't aged a bit in 4 years!

Hand in hand

When you run your own business, sometimes you have to set boundaries for yourself. Many of my own boundaries are to keep clear lines between my personal and professional life. For instance, I don’t accept weddings over Labor Day weekend because that is when my wedding anniversary is and I always want to keep that time special for David and I. I must have had at least 7 inquiries for Labor Day weekend this year, and although I would have loved to work with many of those couples, I have to stick to my boundaries.

Because I think marriage is a big deal, David and I are celebrating our anniversary (4 years already?!) south of the border this year. We’ll be hanging out on the beach, drinking pina coladas and margaritas, Jimmy Buffet style. No, I don’t think you have to go on vacation or spend tons of money whenever your anniversary rolls around to show that it’s important. But I do think you need to do something extra special to celebrate your years together.

So with that being said, I will be sitting on a beach, hand in hand with the love of my life this week. I most likely won’t have email access from August 30-September 5th. So if you try and get ahold of me, I’ll get back to you on September 6th when I am in Colorado again. Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend! :-)

Cori Cook Floral Design - Happy Anniversary Becky! Marriage is a gift... Enjoy your weekend (:

Lovliness

These pictures were just too wonderful to keep to myself!

My dear friend Cori Cook asked me if I would be willing to photograph some flowers she did for a recent wedding. Of course, anytime Cori and her gorgeous work is involved, I’m always up for taking pictures! When I walked into the room, I literally lost my breath. The lovliness that was before me was too good to be true. Maybe it was because it’s my favorite color scheme of all time, or maybe it was all the roses, or maybe it was because I’m just constantly astounded by how talented Cori is, but this room was to. die. for.

Some favorites….

Cori Cook Floral Design - Becky, thank you for taking the most beautiful photos of my work! I am so so thankful!

Daniel & Erin: Wedding {Chief Hosa Lodge, Golden CO}

I would say that about 90% of my clients are referrals from past clients. It’s like one big happy revolving door of amazing people. One of my favorite things is when those referrals are family members of past clients. I was lucky enough to photography Laura and Schon’s beautiful wedding last year. Daniel is Laura’s brother and I was delighted when he and Erin asked me to photograph their wedding this year! It’s so fun to see familiar faces!

Erin and Daniel are high school sweethearts and had one of the most heartfelt ceremonies I have ever witnessed, I absolutely loved it! We had a perfect day! The weather was gorgeous, Erin was beautiful, the flowers were so fragrant and their friends and family had a really fun time at the reception. Could you ask for anything more?  I don’t think so! They were married at the historic Chief Hosa Lodge, which is Colorado’s oldest standing stagecoach stop and a beautiful venue for a mountain wedding! I loved how close we were to the city, yet it felt like you were far far away, in the middle of the Rocky Mountains.

Erin and Daniel, I’m so glad I was able to be a part of your beautiful wedding! Thank you for inviting me into your Big Day and allowing me to photograph it for you! I hope you guys have a wonderful time in Costa Rica and I wish you many many years of joy and love! Blessings!
