Winter Engagement in Summit County | Nicole & Brett

I had a great time with Nicole and Brett for their winter engagement in Summit County recently. They flew in from Los Angeles to do some wedding planning and we were able to get their session in while they were here. It was a chilly afternoon but the bluebird sky made up for it all. We started over at Dillon Reservoir and had the frozen water all to ourselves. The view of the Tenmile Range never disappoints.

Before it got too late, we drove up to Loveland Pass for the rest of the day. It actually felt warmer up at 11,991′ than it did down in the valley so Nicole was able to break out a few dresses that looked great against the snow. Perfect winter weather is the recipe for evening alpenglow which made for quite the ending to a lovely, but chilly, afternoon with these two. I can’t wait for their wedding later this summer.

    Things typically slow down this time of the year so it was a nice change of pace to meet up with Amanda and Weston for their winter mountaintop engagement on Loveland Pass. It was a quintessential bluebird day with gorgeous light so we couldn’t have asked for much more. We explored the west side of the pass for a bit and did our best not to get stuck in any of the snow drifts. Once the light started to fall behind the ridge we moved over to the east side. They were so easy going that it made my job easy. I kept chasing different pockets of light and they’re no stranger to the mountains and altitude so we were able to capture a variety…

  • Winter Frisco Engagement | Bethany & Nick

    Bethany and Nick flew in from North Carolina for a little wedding planning and vacation. During their trip we found some time for their engagement session near Dillon Reservoir in Frisco. I brought a couple of beers from my favorite brewery, Outer Range, for us to enjoy as we hiked up to the top of the nearby peninsula to start the session. The views were about as good as the beers. We had a great time there before changing locations to a secret spot for the second half of the day. I absolutely loved that Bethany brought a gorgeous green dress along that looked fantastic in the snow. They changed one more time before we trudged up the hill in knee deep snow for some…
