Meredith & Phillip were soooo much fun to work with. They had the best chemistry which led to candid and genuine moments. I actually met these two for one of my mini sessions in Garden of the Gods where these photos acted as their engagement photos. Per my request, Meredith put on a flowing white gown to act as an elopement shoot for me since I had not shot in Colorado Springs yet! From jumping photos to romantic dips, these guys were so accommodating for posing, clothing, and awesome attitudes.

When I first talked with Deana she told me that December 17th was a special date because it was going to be her and Phillip’s 15th anniversary as a couple. They both agreed that this date should also be the one they get married on. These two headed to the mountains, a place they both love, and exchanged loving vows in front of their close friends. We grabbed some snowy photos around the church property after the ceremony and then Deana & Phillip headed out to celebrate their new marriage.

When I had first talked to Sam & Scott, they knew they wanted to get married but with all the uncertainty with COVID-19, they were unsure how to go about it. After talking about if they wanted to wait to have a bigger wedding or just get married now, these two decided to tie the knot sooner rather that later. Sam & Scott planned an at home elopement at their home in Charleston, West Virginia surrounded by their three close friends. They live streamed their wedding ceremony so that their family and friends from all over the United States and other countries could tune in and celebrate with them.
