I’ve never woken up on the first day of the new year ready to photograph a wedding, but celebrating a marriage is a pretty stellar way to bring in the new year. Breathing in that Albuquerque mountain air was so refreshing and romantic.

I’ve known both Sarah and Caleb for a few years— and the juxtaposed bright and moody photos from their wedding day really feel like them. Sarah and Caleb are chill energy. They live to be active. They are both artistic. They have eyes only for each other. They froze to death on the snowy mountain we photographed them on. They have deeply caring friends and family who are for them— it’s rich to see them celebrated in these photos.

And with an anniversary on January 1st, they’ll always have something beautiful to celebrate as each new year approaches. Aren’t these snowy mountain photos such a mood?

P.S. If this Jo Bros song had been released on January 1st— I would have made Sarah and Caleb play it at their reception. I would have handed my camera off and danced my feet off. It’s the perfect wedding reception song, don’t you think? Go ahead and play it and pretend you’re in the mountains with Sarah and Caleb.
