GRATEFULNESS

I have to admit that Dave posts the majority of our blog posts, and I am definitely indebted to him :) This morning, I have been working on our photos, and I wanted to share with you all how GRATEFUL I am. I am so grateful for my amazing husband..... I honestly never imagined that I would have the chance to marry someone as supportive, warm, full of life, honest, and hilarious :) as Dave is. We are compatible in ways that I never knew, and it is such a blessing to me that we get to work together daily. I love you babe :)

I am so grateful for the creation of David Lynn Photography. It took a huge leap of faith and a belief that our passion of photography would lead to something great. It has surpassed that. It has given us countless experiences to capture LOVE, and this has been the greatest gift. Experiencing the love between two people as they choose to join their lives and souls is incredible. Anyone who has been to a truly powerful wedding has seen this. But to watch it through the lens and actually capture these moments so that the couple never forgets.....this is amazing.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to live our lives through our passions. I am so grateful that our lives are built around experiencing love on a deep and truthful level, and I am so grateful to be doing all of this with my husband.

Thank you to the couples who have given us their complete trust to capture these moments. Thank you to the couples who have allowed us into their lives and with whom we've made an awesome connection. Life is so beautiful when we let it in. Thank you to all of you who have let us into yours ~

Just a few images that make me happy :)

Wedding Slideshow

Here's a slideshow of highlights from Brian and Angie's wedding in August...Their wedding was at Bethany Lutheran in Denver and a fantastic reception at Cherry Hills Country Club....

Coming Soon: The New townsendphotography.com

The other day I was thinking about how long its been since I've updated my townsendphotography.com website. It was my last solo trip...let's see...to africa. Oh Ma Gawd...that was in 2003.....Krikey! Four years ago?? That's really sad. "Why no updates?" you ask? I built the site myself (with a template start from a friend) that proved to be too time intensive and cumbersome to update the code, links to pages, links to those pages, links back to the other pages....you get the idea. Well, that will happen no longer.

I am pleased to announce I'm in the final stages of designing my New and Improved, face-lifted and updated website! I can barely contain myself, and I've been working on it long, late hours. Launch date isn't far away, and believe me, you'll know when its ready.

TRAPEZE - Forget the Fear, Think about the Addiction!

To celebrate our sister-in-law Lisa's birthday, Andy came up with the great idea to go to Trapeze school! It's not so much a "class" as it is just getting harnessed up and giving it a fly. What an unbelievably fun time! The Imperial Flyers is an amateur Flying Trapeze and Circus Arts club operating a rig in Westminster, Colorado. They show you the ropes and then you just take turns flying on the trapeze bar. We were even able to pull off a couple tricks. It's pretty much a jungle gym for big kids. Perfect for our group, we're going back for sure!

my best advice is don't read the waiver, it'll only scare you. just sign it...


the uncertainty is showing on the birthday girl lisa's face, but we're not letting her leave without a try.


lisa and angie do their stretches...


lisa takes the "step of faith" -- 40 feet off the ground, unharnessed, socks on your feet, the heart begins to race...


the crew gets you harnessed up and secure (finally!) and talks you through the fact that you'll be jumping off the platform in just a few seconds...


and the first swing! pure adrenaline, with just a pinch of fear....but once you get your first swing, its an absolute blast!


and the release into the net...


lynn sidled up to the platform.


and couldn't stop laughing the entire time...


andy exhibits stellar form on the bar...or is that bart conner???


andy's release into the net....also a bit unnerving to let go of this thing when you're so far off the ground.


and the dismount flip back down to mother earth. so good to be on the ground again, but then you can't wait to go back up!


angie enjoying her swings, and narrowly avoiding a butt smack against the platform on the back end of a swing...


brian pulls off a great leg hang! its a little tough to force yourself to climb up on the bar and hang upside WHILE you're swinging....


not to mention the feeling of "what now???" when you're swinging upside down! it's actually pretty easy to climb back and grab the bar again...


brian's reverse hand hold to perform the "half-turn"




lisa and lynn both perform a couple awesome split maneuvers!




lynn dancing across the net of traquility....


happy birthday lisa!

Finch Wedding ~ Evergreen, Colorado

Meet Jill & Finch...actually, Jill is now Mrs. Finch. Finch is still Finch. And he's Ryan. Well, Ryan Finch. Mr. and Mrs. Ryan Finch. Or just Mr. and Mrs. Finch. Or just "Jill & Finch" as they've been called ever since they were dating. Don't bother making sense of any of that, all you need to know is these are two fun people. We had so much fun photographing them all evening, and we even had a lot of people in common at their wedding, including Robin who married us last year. How cool that was to see her performing another ceremony since ours!

Many congratulations Mr. and Mrs Finch! You guys are fantastic people, and we wish you many, many happy times ahead!
