Dan And Amy ~ A Colorado Engagement

Sometimes things just work like magic. I knew we might get to see our dearly loved friend, Dan Self, on our Colorado vacation last week. What I didn’t know was that he was planning to ask  his beautiful girl, Amy, to marry him that same week. When we met him for lunch in Glenwood Canyon, he told us the exciting news. My next words were, “Hey, you need an engagement shoot!”. Never before have I done an engagement shoot on such short notice and with no planning at all. It was bliss. They came to visit us the day after their engagement, and after answering all our excited questions and some ice cream at the local Marble Slab Creamery, we found some railroad tracks and a river surrounded by glorious mountains. (Only in Colorado).

I had so much fun! And the Cottonwoods! I had never seen Cottonwood trees before, and they were releasing their beautiful cotton-like floaties into the air. It looked like a fairy tale. Once again I put Johnny to work and he jumped into the nearest tree and shook it to make it look more glorious! We were all yelling, “Shake it, Johnny!”. So funny. So magical. So fun.

Be blessed and happy Dan and Amy! I hope to see you and Colorado again VERY soon!  🙂
