denver, colorado engagement portraits | sonya and faisal

Sonya and Faisal’s wedding is coming up in less than two weeks! We are so excited to photograph their wedding ceremonies (I can’t wait for all the beautiful colors of their wedding)! They are a very sweet couple and it was great getting to know them better at their engagement shoot.

They asked for more conservative portraits than we normally do, so that was a fun challenge for me! I love that we were able to capture how wonderfully Faisal cares for Sonya–you can really tell that he is always looking to take care of her!

Faisal and Sonya got engaged on the Millennium Bridge, so it was only appropriate to take a few shots there!

Sonya is so beautiful!

Behind the scenes:  We were shooting on a few bridges over a little stream and there was a very happy dog prancing around in the water.  He wanted to know what my deal was:

Photographers tend to adopt funny stances as they attempt to become human tripods.  I like this one that Nic was sporting.   Like he’s going to take this shot, and then break into a run.  (I really shouldn’t throw stones about poses…but luckily Nic doesn’t write blog entries.)  ;)

colorado springs engagement portraits | sarah and dan

We met Sarah and Dan last weekend at Garden of the Gods for their engagement photos. We loved Sarah and Dan’s entry in our contest this past winter and were so excited when they hired us to be their wedding photographers. They are such a cute couple!

This shot was actually Dan’s idea. Photography is one of his hobbies, and I was so excited when he suggested a silhouette of them climbing! And thanks to the magic of intense saturation boosting, the blah sky became something amazing!

I heard a rumor that Dan had to be convinced to bring some climbing gear as props, but I’m glad Sarah thought of it–it made for some cute photos! (And a fun challenge for us!)

When they’re not rock climbing, Sarah and Dan can be found just being adorable:

Thanks again for a great evening, Sarah and Dan! We can’t wait to work with you again at your wedding!

Monument, Colorado | Engagement Portraits | Andy and Lauren at Fox Run Park

We photographed Andy and Lauren’s engagement portraits last week at Fox Run Park in Monument. Lauren’s parents live nearby, so the park is well known to Lauren (which is good, because it usually takes me 800 times longer to drive around the park).

They were pretty sure they were not photogenic at all, but we were pretty sure that they were dirty liars. :P And it turns out we win–they ARE gorgeously photogenic! See for yourself…

A little bit of cinnamon photoshop action-ery on this next one:

We played around for a while. Andy and Lauren are totally professional twirlers now–we love it!

We were threatened with storm clouds, but it made for a dramatic background:

Lauren and Andy are just as sweet and photogenic as can be. We are so excited for their wedding! (And now that they are such practiced twirlers, we’ll definitely do some spinning on the wedding day!) :)
