Colorado Springs Engagement Shoot: Phil and Keenan

If Phil looks ever so slightly familiar (especially when he laughs), it’s because he is Meg‘s brother! I’m excited to be shooting brother/sister weddings this year, and we don’t have to wait long for Phil and Keenan’s–we’re photographing their wedding later this month!

Keenan and Phil are an adorable couple, and Keenan’s nervous laughter in the beginning of the shoot was totally precious. Brides often ask me how we get so many laughing pictures, and the answer is: my dumb one-liners half the time, and nervous laughter the other half. It can feel very odd to get all comfy/cozy with your fiance with two photographers watching…but nervous laughter is the silver lining of that initial shyness!

We went to Garden of the Gods for their shoot, since they were hoping to get some shots with their dog Willie:

Everyone gets over the shyness and pretty soon it’s like you’ve been kissing in front of two photographers forever:

They had liked how Meg and Matt incorporated their love of music into their engagement shoot, so they brought along their instruments. Fantastical–we love it when our couples bring props!!

Thanks for a great shoot, Keenan and Phil! We can’t wait for your wedding!
