Engagement: Tyler and Ashley

I met with Tyler and Ashley at my FAVORITE espresso bar in Pueblo, The Daily Grind, to talk about their wedding. Unfortunately, I am booked for their big day but she still wanted to do engagement photos. We did these shots on an early summer morning at The Nature Center. I absolutely love this location late summer because of the beautiful green vines on the ground... as you can see :)

Engagement: Jay and Stephanie

Jay and Stephanie are again a couple that I've met through mutual friends. They'll be having a June 2012 wedding up near Jay's parents' house in Beaulah. These photos were taken on their property, as well as within the city limits. It was a gorgeous cloudy day, but later on the sun did peep out... I selfishly can't wait for a full-on rain filled shoot or even wedding. This engagement session sure was a teaser for myself :)

Engagement: Nick and Chelsea

Chelsea and Nick met me just outside of the Pueblo Nature Center to get their engagement photos. Look out for their Wedding--they will be tying the knot at the BEAUTIFUL Brush Canyon Ranch!

Josh and Sage love shoot.

So, while attempting to finally complete my website, I realized that I wanted to do a shoot that was fully intended and completely surrounded around the overall feel that I wanted to incorporate into my website. Vintage, Urban Outfitters sort of feel, light and airy.. and of course, the feeling of love! With this in mind, I had the perfect person I wanted to contact.

I honestly don't remember where I met Sage, or if I just encountered her through mututal friends, but her and her boyfriends' overall style was exactly what I needed for my home page! They were definitely into it, being that they haven't had pictures taken together yet.

So, I went a little crazy going to the local thrift stores to get some cute vintage props, which were a great addition to the shoot, but honestly with two beautiful people as Sage and Josh to take photos of, who really needs props?! But it truly set the mood. I am so happy they both allowed me to take photos of them! You can view the photos of the vintage items on my website, but for now here are some of my favorites from Josh and Sage's love shoot!

Daniel and Leanne

I went to high school with Leanne, and since then, because of facebook, we have been able to keep updated and in somewhat contact with each other. Thank you facebook!

While on there, she followed my photos and as soon as she was engaged she anxiously contacted me for some engagement shots!

I met her and Daniel in Colorado Springs, where we went to the Garden of the Gods do to some cute outdoor photos. We also headed over to a local baseball field to take a couple photos that reflected the two as a couple!

Enjoy these shots of the wonderful couple! I can't wait to photograph their wedding!!

Carla Engagement

After shooting my good friend Louis's Family, his sister, Carla, who initiated the original shoot told me that she and her fiancée had been engaged for a while and did not even have photos together yet! Well, as an extension of the previous blog, here are the photos that we took at Pueblo City Park.

After shooting together, Carla had mentioned that she recognized my name and asked if I had a cousin named Brianne. Yes! I do. How neat was it to learn that she grew up as best friends with my cousin and we just meet! It really is a small world :)

Engagement: Brandan and Michelle

Bustamante is a familiar name in my life. I went to school with a beautiful friend of mine, Kristin, since... gosh, I believe second grade? I remember staying the night at her house one time and meeting her brother sooo long ago. I don't remember much of him, except that he was really really into music!

Years and years later, he has worked up his music career as being a Worship Leader and creating beautiful music for all wandering ears to listen! He has lead worship at New Life Church in Colorado springs, toured in several locations.. and, as he mentioned during the shoot, went to my FAVORITE city of Nashville to record! That is where he met his beautiful future wife, Michelle. And goodness do they go great together!! Models they are, as well! They were so much fun to work with and were totally down to any pose, anywhere, and I barely had to direct them at all!

These two were engaged in Nashville and will be soon to wed in Ohio. Though I will not be photographing the wedding, I was very very happy to have spent the time with both of them to give them some beautiful engagement photos! Congratulations Brandan and Michelle!

Check out some of his amazing performances, especially for the Desparation Tour he did. The videos for these performances are found on his YouTube here!!















Michelle is quite the model!! She wanted to get a few good shots of just herself for her visit to Colorado for these photos! She is originally from Nashville..


GORGEOUS!!
