In September Danika and Zach reached out to me about capturing their pontoon boat engagement session. Rest assured they received a big ‘ole “HELL YEAH” from me! As the fall foliage starts to show, I knew this would be the perfect time and place for a session. The idea of hopping on Zach’s family boat on Lake Dillon had all of the creative ideas and possibilities pouring in. All my sessions are so special and unique to each couple, which I love. When someone asks me to do something with a touch of personality, I get so stoked. It’s those little things that remind me of why I love being a photographer. It’s my job to capture those special moments, but it makes them that much better when those moments are so close to who you are.
We had the best evening ‘sailing’ to a private island on Lake Dillon. We relaxed while taking in the scenery of the surrounding views of Breckenridge. Ten Mile Peaks, nearby 14ers, and the changing fall colors under the evening golden hour… moments that make time stand still. Of course, I didn’t forget about their Husky pup Bergen. He rolled around in the sand, took naps on the back of the boat, and sniffed the open waters. He kept an eye out for mom and dad while they played captain and enjoyed their time together in a place they love.
I have a blast getting to tap into my creativity with sessions like these. If you’re wanting to capture a creative photoshoot like this one, you should reach out to me! If you enjoyed this pontoon boat engagement session post, you might like this one too.
Perched high above the Vail Valley, the Vail Mountain Wedding Deck offers sweeping alpine views and a quiet that’s hard to find elsewhere. At over 10,000 feet, you quite literally rise above it all. With the Gore Range stretching endlessly behind you and Colorado’s beloved 14er, Mount of the Holy Cross, anchoring the horizon, the […]
Tucked into the Elk Mountains of western Colorado, you’ll find Crested Butte. It’s about four hours from Denver, but once you’re there, the pace shifts. You get less noise, more space, and better views, perfect for those dream summer mountain engagement photos. In the summer, it’s known as the wildflower capital of Colorado, and yes, […]
Jackie and Mike’s day is proof that a non-venue wedding in Telluride can be just as intentional, meaningful, and beautifully planned as any traditional celebration. They found me through a past bride (the best kind of introduction, if you ask me), and by the time we connected, there was already trust. They loved my work, […]
Snowy engagement photos in Vail are never a bad idea. You get consistent powder, open mountain views, and clean backdrops that don’t compete. The landscape is simple, which means the focus stays on the couple, not the scenery trying to steal the show. Snow softens everything visually, from light to color to texture. It creates […]
Meredith and Broderick’s late-August Telluride wedding unfolded with the kind of mountain-town charm that always keeps you on your toes—sun one minute, clouds the next. I covered their entire weekend, starting with the welcome evening and carrying all the way through the wedding day, which gave me the chance to document not just the big […]
Vail has no shortage of stunning backdrops, but when it comes to Vail wedding venues, there’s something undeniably magical about tying the knot in the mountains. Maybe it’s the crisp alpine air, the way the Gore Range catches the evening light, or the simple luxury of being surrounded by scenery that feels straight out of […]
