Welcome!
We are a cutting edge photography studio, offering contemporary wedding, portrait and architectural photography at the highest level.
Three Photographers make up This Modern Life.
Kevin: Kevin has been shooting all his life. After a long career in the skateboarding industry, he decided to follow his dream and pursue an education in photography. He has a BFA from the prestigious Brooks Institute of photography, and the student loans to prove it.
Jessica: With a Masters in Education, and a past career as a teacher, I am incredibly talented in wrangling your friends and family for those necessary formal photos. We like to joke that we got the two for 1 deal at Brooks as I was wrangled into just about every assgnment Kevin had at school. I love to meet all your friends and family, and thrive on catching those sweet moments that seem to happen when no one is looking.
Sam: Sam is our incredibly talented Associate Photographer. Don't be fooled by the Associate title. Sam could easily be running her own Wedding Photography business. She just chooses to leave all the hard work to us. The very first wedding the girl ever shot EVER was just published in Brides Colorado! So, yeah, she rocks. All of our associate photographers spend a rigorous year training with us before they ever step foot into a wedding of their own. I would trust Sam with my own wedding, was I not already married.

We're always well versed in the latest photographic trends and can customize our work to each client's preferences. Our approach is contemporary and always in the best of taste. We strive for the perfect combination of timeless elegance and fresh style.
We believe that weddings are a social celebration of a very sacred commitment. We feel honored to be participants in every wedding we shoot and treat both the day and the people involved with the highest level of respect. Most of all, weddings are a day filled with beauty and magic that emerges effortlessly. We believe our job is to capture that magic in the most authentic way - unobtrusively, honestly, joyfully. We work with all couples, and are honored to work with LGBT couples. Ask us about our discount.
Our focus is on journalistic style photography. We limit the number of posed and staged photographs and try instead to highlight the laughter, tears, and passion that you and your guests will be feeling without our heavy involvement. We understand that each couple is unique in their style, personality, and biography and strive to produce images that reflect that individuality. The era of assembly line coverage and common, ordinary albums is over. We understand our client needs for exclusive, classic products and exceed their expectations. Our goal with every wedding is to represent the grace, creativity, and style that is possible in contemporary wedding photography.
