Engagement Photographer near Estes Park, Colorado

Surprise Proposal in Rocky Mountain National Park at Sky Pond

I’ve only known Andrew and Estelle for about 4 months, but they are already 2 of my closest friends. They’re both such kind people. Estelle is always paying attention to details for organizing things for our big friend group and being such a good host whenever we go to hers and Andrew’s house. She lets me borrow her clothes and is the best about remembering things to do for other people when they ask her for a favor. Andrew has the best energy to be around. Always smiling, always eager about any adventure and always the life of the friend group. Our group of 9 people hiked the 11 miles to Sky Pond to see our friends get engaged! This location was perfect for a proposal. Afterwards, we had lunch and drank some champagne together. Andrew and Estelle have been together for 8 years and I’m so happy they’re officially getting married.

Adventure Elopement Photographer in Boulder - Lake Isabelle at Sunrise

Taylor and Keith’s Lake Isabelle Sunrise Elopement - August 2020

Taylor and Keith decided to self solemnize in Colorado. Colorado is one of the few states that allows couples to get married without an officiant or witness. We had an early morning and met at the trail head around 4:45am. We hiked a few miles up to the lake and arrived just as the sun was coming up. The color on the mountains was changing every minute- it was gorgeous and only 45 degrees. We took lots of photos, drank some Prosecco and hiked back to the parking lot by 8am. Almost everyone we saw congratulated them as we hiked back. Taylor and Keith are such an inspirational couple. They are activists and always making their voices heard. I’m always in a great mood after I spend time with them. This morning adventure was one of my favorites so far, good company and amazing views!

Rocky Mountain National Park - Endovalley Hike

This hike was beautiful! I wanted to make it up to Chasm Falls, but a snowstorm stopped me. I parked at the Alluvial Fan picnic area, walked to Endovalley Picnic area and walked up Fall River Road. All the roads past Alluvial Fan Picnic area were closed. This hike is mostly pavement until you get to Fall River Road which is where the road turns to gravel and is an uphill hike from there on. Even though I didn’t see the falls, this was still a beautiful, quiet hike.

Granby, Colorado Wedding Photographer in

Paige and Tyler's Granby Ranch Mountaintop Wedding was incredible. Everyone attending the wedding was able to take the ski lift up to the top of the mountain for the ceremony. The ceremony site overlooked the mountains and the views were so gorgeous. Paige and Tyler are so so kind and are a beautiful couple. They truly focused on their friends and family and each other the whole day. Their friends and family’s speeches and toasts made everyone cry and I felt so happy I was able to be a part of their day.

Lake Hikes in Colorado - Lake Haiyaha

Saturday Lake Hike - The weather was gorgeous this day. It was very warm around 11am and by 2 or 3pm, rain started falling and the temperatures dropped. It was a nice break from the harsh sun.

The blues here are incredible. I already want to go back :)
