Denver Botanical Gardens Engagement Session

I first ‘met’ Ryan and Julie over Facetime about two months ago. While I love meeting clients in person, Facetime can be so intimidating for me! But by the time we hung up, I felt like I had known them my whole life. It was so great connecting with them, and I instantly knew they were a Theresa Bridget couple! And they were adorable too, so I was anxiously awaiting their engagement session so I could get them in front of my camera!

After chatting a bit back and forth, we realized January would probably be best for their engagement session. Since they were flying into town to take care of wedding planning, adding an engagement session to the to-do list seemed perfect. I was pretty nervous with a January engagement session, bring from California I was convinced that it would be freeeeeezing! However, I am quickly learning that Colorado doesn’t really care what season it is. The weather is pretty temperamental (but generally great) all year round.

With it being January in Denver, we weren’t quite sure what to expect. With Denver weather, you basically roll the dice. It could be 20 and snowing or it could be 55 and sunny! With the amount of snow we had gotten earlier in the week, I was a tad nervous for how cold it could potentially be, but we lucked out. Despite it being a bit chilly, we got some clear skies and great sunshine! It couldn’t have been more perfect for these two!

As we strolled around the grounds of the Denver Botanical Gardens we chatted about everything! From how they met, to how they fell in love. Coincidently as we chatted, we realized that we were taking their engagement photos on the anniversary of their first date–I mean how cute is that!!! It felt so full circle to be capturing engagement photos on such a special date for them!

My time with these two passed two quickly, and with how much chemistry they have I have officially started a countdown until their wedding! I can’t wait to celebrate their marriage in a few short months!
