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.
A Gorrono Ranch wedding gives you something pretty hard to manufacture: a setting that already has personality. Janelle and Dave wanted their August celebration to feel Western and elevated, pulling from Telluride’s summer landscape with soft yellow, white, and cream florals. Add black tuxedos, cowboy boots, sentimental family details, and eventually a shot ski, and […]
Rowan and Jake’s mountaintop wedding in Steamboat Springs felt very Colorado. Think bright blue skies, wildflowers, gondola rides, an entire mountain full of their favorite people, and two people who were more than ready to put their normally very driven lives on pause for a day. I actually met them before they ever inquired with […]
The first thing I noticed wasn’t the mountains. It wasn’t the river either. It was how absolutely comfortable everyone felt. Katie and Christian created the kind of wedding that reminds you what a celebration is actually supposed to feel like. If you’re searching for a Buena Vista wedding venue that naturally encourages your guests (and […]
The mountains had absolutely no interest in being subtle this day. Ten Peaks Crested Butte showed off with sweeping alpine views, soft summer greens, dramatic skies, and one of those sunsets that makes photographers silently weep tears of joy. Gracie and David’s wedding felt like a gathering of people who genuinely couldn’t wait to celebrate […]
The text that popped up on my phone asking if I’d photograph a Cabo San Lucas wedding wasn’t just another inquiry. It was from someone who had slowly become a real friend over the years. Misty and I first connected on social media while she was building her wedding-planning business in Grand Junction, Colorado. Before […]
It’s not every day that I’m contacted before a proposal even happens, but that’s exactly how this story begins. LaRose and Scott’s Vail Chapel wedding had one of the sweetest, most unexpected lead-ups. The groom’s mom reached out to me ahead of the big moment, already thinking steps ahead. Unfortunately, I wasn’t available to photograph […]
