Denver engagement pictures – Carolyn and Jack

We had two engagement sessions this week, and apologies to Matt and Meg, because I’m posting these sneak peeks in reverse order.

Poor Carolyn and Jack get bumped to the front of the line because when we returned to our cars at the end of the shoot, their car had been broken into! The criminals didn’t take anything, but broke the window anyway (which almost makes it more annoying).

We were also disappointed when our piece de resistance of the evening didn’t happen. We had planned on ending the shoot at The Tattered Cover (Jack and Carolyn are both in publishing, which makes the fabulous bookstore an even better location) but didn’t think through the fact that on Sunday, they close at 6:00 (instead of 11:00). BUMMER OF BUMMERS.

Jack and Carolyn were fabulous troopers, though, and total pros at engagement shoot posing by the end of the night! We had our fair share of disappointments last night, but it was matched by fun accidents like when we were were misidentified as teenagers, or finding the cool underside of this bridge:

And this awesome wall:

Or this little locks by the river (it looks a lot prettier than it smelled…):

Or this coffee shop (and the kind girl who left her sweet spot in the window for a few minutes while we took a few shots):

And a few more shots for good measure:

A little bit of vintage grunge for this one:

Thanks again, Jack and Carolyn for a wonderful evening! We can’t wait for your wedding, we hope you love this sneak peek, and we hope your car magically grew its window back last night!:)
