Spring in Colorado can be full of fickle weather. One morning it can snow and then by the afternoon it is sunny and warm. I crossed my fingers for good weather for the few days I was in the Denver area for various shoots. Well thank goodness the finger crossing worked. The days were incredibly beautiful with warmer temperatures. Just as soon as I got back to South Carolina, Jane text me to let me know that it was cold and snowing again…wonderful and perfect timing! Whew.
Brian and Jane wanted to have an engagement session in Colorado at some of their favorite spots since the wedding will be in New Orleans. We started the day off at the Denver Botanical Gardens and then headed out to Red Rocks. We originally had it planned to go to 4 locations, however each location had so many amazing places within itself that we had a very full day going to two. When Jane asked if they could bring their dogs Koda and Kiska, I said “ABSOLUTELY”. So, on our way to Red Rocks we stopped by their house to pick up Koda & Kiska and a change of clothes.
The first location at Red Rocks had a perfectly shaped rock for an awesome background, BUT there were signs saying the area was closed due to rattlesnakes. Brian tried to convince both Jane and I that they weren’t out this time of year, even though we saw a skin of what looked like a very large rattler! Yikes. I had such a great time with you two and I cannot wait for the wedding in New Orleans 🙂
Please enjoy a handful of images and just below them, a slideshow highlighting the day.
Thank you for stopping by!
