Gaglia Wedding | Deer Creek Valley Ranch Colorado Rocky Mountain Wedding Photographer

Celebrating your 10 year anniversary by tying the knot is a pretty incredible way to spend a decade together! However, their wedding day made those ten years worth the wait! Kaycee and Brandon met in high school and their story is one for the books. Brandon proposed while in Costa Rica and completely caught her off guard as she was searching for seashells. Their wedding day was filled with so many pieces of their hearts, their family and friends, and those they have lost over the years. We are so honored that you two had us be there to capture it all with you! Much love and excitement for your awesome marriage!

Cheers,
Taylor and Mike

From the bride:

• How did you two meet?
“Brandon and I went to high school together. Knew each other through friends and started dating 10 years ago 2/20/06/”

• When did you know you were going to marry each other?
“I knew I was going to marry Brandon like a year into our relationship but for him, well I’m not sure, I just know he took his time asking me, haha!”

• How did Brandon propose?
“Brandon proposed to me on the beach in Costa Rica during sun rise. I had no idea, I was looking for sea shells.”

• What is your favorite quirk about the other?
“My favorite thing about Brandon is that he is always happy and he also makes me happy I can never be mad at him! Brandon’s favorite thing about me is that I’m a trouble maker. I like to push his buttons!”

• What advice do you have for couples planning their wedding now?
“My best advise for anyone planning is if you don’t want to stress, go to the beach but if you can stick out the tough parts it will be the best day of your life.”

• How did you chose Deer Creek Valley Ranch for your venue?
“We chose the ranch before we even knew we want to get married. But we wanted the ranch as our home, then I found out it was a venue so the next best thing is your wedding day!”

• What is your most memorable moment from your wedding day?
“I think my most memorable moment was seeing Brandon. Everything was perfect after that. Brandon’s most memorable moment was our first dance!!”

-Codey & Taylor

“We knew our photos were going to be something we would treasure forever, but what we didn’t expect to walk away with was an effortless bond turned friendship.

Taylor and Mike are not just invested in capturing the magic of the wedding day, but their heart is in it for the marriage and future that follows.”

-Brett & Mendy

I did not feel rushed or anxious, just simply in the moment—which was most important as this would be a once in a lifetime experience—and believe me, Taylor and Mike made it memorable. Separately they are an absolute delight, and together they make the ultimate team and genuine couple. You can see the true dedication they put into making that day, your day…special! It was an absolute joy to work with this inspirational couple."

"With grace and charm, Taylor and Mike set the tone for our beautiful wedding day!

-Jake & Christina

They did everything we asked and more. Our friends and family keep remarking how great our photographers were. They took so many photos and delivered them in such a fast turnaround."

"Taylor and Mike are professional, friendly, detailed, flexible, committed—exactly the kind of presence you want from photographers on your wedding day! 

-Chris & Kim

On the day, they were so organized and kept things moving at a perfect pace. We never felt rushed yet were able to adhere to our timeline perfectly. They made everyone, including my generally camera-shy husband, feel at ease making for photos with real smiles."

"From start to finish, Taylor and Mike take great care to make sure you are comfortable and have clear and prompt communication. 

-Jake & Haydn

We are so impressed with not only them as people and their amazing work, but also their communication skills throughout the entire planning process."

"Taylor and Mike have a great ability to take photographs in places no ordinary person would ever think of, and, while still focusing on you, they are also able to capture the beautiful scenery.

-Adam & Sydney

Though we had never met, it was as though we were life-long friends and it was immediately apparent we wanted to work with them. They are so pleasant, personable, and go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and relaxed. We were so worried the photo process would be weird and awkward, but they made it one of the most fun aspects of the whole day. To top it all off, the photos are simply gorgeous!"

“We gave them a call and they were the first, and only, photographers we spoke with.
