Eden and Cade live in Iowa, are getting married in Colorado, and made a special trip to Utah for their Alt Session this past weekend, which is exactly the kind of dedication to photos we love to see! So Jesse and I wanted to make sure this Arches National Park engagement session was completely worth…
One of the things that can make or break a photo shoot is the level of trust a couple has in us. The more a couple trusts our (sometimes bizarre) requests, the better the photos turn out because they’re able to relax and rest easy, knowing that we’re going to take them on a super…
Oh, the difference 4,000 feet makes! While we enjoyed 70-degree weather in the foothills, Kristin and Greg’s Rocky Mountain National Park engagement session still had plenty of snow. That’s one of the (many) things we love about Colorado. If you’re getting sick of the weather, there’s no need to travel to a different latitude, you…
After our adventures at Vail, we headed off to one of my favorite resorts for the second part of Kelly and Chris’s Alt Session. Beaver Creek Resort is a beautiful spot to ski, get hitched, or just hang out and eat cookies. But because we’re always searching for interesting activities for our Alt Sessions, their…
If you ever hear me complain about what we do for a living, I want you to go ahead and just slap me. Then remind me about this Vail ski engagement session. Kelly and Chris are awesome people. I know this to be true for several reasons. In no particular order: They’re adventurous: When I first…
My obsession began a few months ago when I first saw the Dillon Ice Castle in a Facebook post. I knew immediately that I had to do everything in my power to do a shoot there. With Natasha and Doug coming from Glenwood Springs and us being located in Boulder County, Dillon ended up being the…
As millions of people were spending Wednesday night in crowded airports on their way to celebrate Thanksgiving, Jesse and I were hanging out with Cat and Bryant at Copper Mountain’s Woodward Training Facility for their aerial engagement session. At our first meeting with the couple, they casually mentioned doing their engagement session at Woodward and…
Everyone has a favorite spot, a place that holds a plethora of happy memories. But few of us are fortunate enough for that place to literally be on a mountain peak. Anna and Berry are part of that lucky group, so Jesse and I hopped in the car and made a lovely Saturday drive to…
Nicole and Dustin’s Red Rocks engagement session kicked off a week of several photo shoots for us. But what better way to start your week than spending time with a dog, talking about books, going to Red Rocks, and drinking some tasty homebrew? No complaints here! We started the afternoon at a park near their house,…
The very first time I spoke with JaimeJo on the phone, before she and Nick had even booked us, her first question was, “What are you doing on August 21st?” She explained that she really wanted a solar eclipse engagement session, and that was the date of what’s come to be known as the Great…
A few weeks ago, a large, heavy box arrived at our doorstep from Amazon. Since we were in the midst of weddings and wedding preparations, the box sat unopened in the closet. Until last Thursday, when we finally broke into it for Courtney and Derek’s Holi powder engagement shoot! Courtney and Derek are planning their…
Our couples hire us for many reasons. They like the color and emotion in our images. Or the different angles. Or how we incorporate the environment. But what we hear most often is that they were drawn to us because our photos looked unlike others they’d seen. All this is thanks to opportunities like P…
