Today’s blog post highlights their Indian wedding ceremony, held at The Pines Lodge in Beaver Creek. Colors and textures and details – oh my! A visual feast! Working with Kari and Nik and their families was so wonderful – I love how they embraced the combining of their culture and traditions to create something so unique and special, and so representative of them.

Colorado Wedding Photographer ~ Suzanne & Bryant’s engagement session

colorado engagement photoWay back in March I got an inquiry from Suzanne, explaining that she’d be visiting Colorado for her cousin’s August wedding and wanted to schedule an engagement session during her time in Colorado. So after chatting about her vision (she’s a photographer too -I ♥ that!) we booked it… but not one engagement session, she decided on three sessions: two in Denver, one up in the mountains in Beaver Creek.

When she and her wonderful fiance arrived with their trio of pups it was such a treat. We spend one morning (early!) at Hudson Gardens, another late afternoon in my favorite rustic outdoorsy spot, and the third session was up at the Ritz Carlton, Bachelor Gulch. Amazing amazing time – they are so absolutely hilarious and fun. And their dogs just might have warmed up to me towards the end.. maybe :) Eventually we’ll get to talking about their wedding in St Louis in 2013, but for now these will have to suffice..
