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.
TL;DR: As a Colorado wedding photographer, my approach to documenting your day will result in timeless wedding images that accurately resemble you. From the big celebrations to the not so small in-between moments you aren't even aware are happening, the images I deliver will help you relive the day for years to come. When it comes to your wedding day, the moments you want to remember aren't always perfect, staged or scripted, they are uncut, raw and true to you.
AN HONEST WEDDING EXPERIENCE

Hello! I feel beyond honored that you've made your way here! In order to give you the best representation of who you'll be spending your wedding day (one of the best days you'll live) with, here's a brief run down!
First and foremost, I'm a mountain gal through and through. I was born and raised in Vail, Colorado and unless it's another mountain town, my husband and I will always call this home. It's the tightly knit community, the fresh air (but really, it hits different here), the scenery and most importantly for us, the recreation + lifestyle. This is something that will always come through in my work, and what I believe sets me just a little bit apart - I am, and will forever be, inspired by the poetry of love in landscapes.
I have a deep desire to be on the move, to see everything before I don't have the opportunity to, and are therefore happiest when traveling and exploring new places (which I feel so lucky is a part of my work!)
Spending quality time hiking/biking/skiing/camping with my husband and our two border collies, clocking in some R&R at home or catching up with a friend over a glass of wine/craft beer are things that always sit at the top of the priority list.
If you're in to it- I'm a Libra, A Manifesting Generator (6-2) and an Enneagram 7 Wing 6/8. In short, I'm a people person, an optimist, and for lack of better terms- like to get shit done and make things happen. I'm a feeler, with a strong sense of empathy and sense of what people are experiencing, both when it comes to myself and others. I'm a bit of a goof, a tiny little thing packed with some sass, and ultimately just want to live a fun and adventurous life that's packed with new experiences and people.
..I guess that's why I do what I do. I feel so grateful to be on this journey of having my own business where I have freedom to curate the life I want to live, where I get to connect with truly so many amazing humans, travel to some really beautiful places, and document that as a whole, as creatively and beautifully as I can for you.
