PONTOON BOAT ENGAGEMENT SESSION | LAKE DILLON – FRISCO, CO
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.

MY PHILOSOPHY
An Honest Wedding Experience
“Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still”
Words I Live by
I'm WHITNEY.
Your wedding day is a story—one filled with fleeting moments of beauty, deep emotion, and once-in-a-lifetime memories. As an artist, I am here to preserve those moments with intention, artistry, and care. I don’t just capture what your wedding looked like—I document how it felt.
Born and raised in the breathtaking landscapes of Vail, Colorado, I am deeply inspired by the way love and nature intertwine. There’s something poetic about the way light moves across mountain peaks, the way wind dances through a bride’s veil, and how the beauty of the outdoors mirrors the intimacy of a wedding day. My work is shaped by this connection—an effortless blend of refined editorial imagery and documentary storytelling, allowing each wedding to unfold naturally while being captured with timeless elegance.
Beyond photography, I am an adventurer at heart. Whether I’m exploring new landscapes, hiking through the Rockies, or traveling to breathtaking destinations, my love for movement and exploration brings an effortless, natural feel to my imagery. Every love story is unique, and I am deeply invested in capturing the emotions, scenery, and in-between moments that make your wedding day truly unforgettable. From the moment we connect, my goal is to provide an effortless, elevated experience that allows you to be fully present while I handle the art of storytelling. With a calm, intuitive approach, I blend artistic direction with documentary storytelling—guiding you when needed while allowing your most authentic moments to unfold naturally. My couples value timeless, emotive imagery, a refined yet relaxed presence, and the confidence of knowing their memories are being preserved with intention. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me skiing down the slopes, hiking with my husband and our two border collies, or enjoying a slow morning with a perfectly crafted latte. I live for meaningful conversations, spontaneous adventures, and capturing beauty in the quiet, in-between moments of life—just as I do with my couples. I take on a limited number of weddings each year to provide an intimate, high-touch experience, ensuring each love story is captured with the highest level of artistry and care. If you feel drawn to timeless, emotional, and editorial-inspired imagery, I would love to hear your vision and create something extraordinary together.
