Okay, so technically this isn't a real elopement. You might remember Nicole and Ryan from their gorgeous backyard wedding in May. These two happen to also live in Colorado Springs where we visited to photograph an engagement session last week. Before even leaving their wedding, I asked if they would be willing to get dressed back up and explore the beautiful Garden of the Gods park in Colorado Springs, and I was so excited they were on board.

It has always been a dream of mine to be a destination photographer and this little job of mine has taken me to Arizona, Georgia, Florida, and now Colorado! Additionally, I'll be wrapping up the year with a New York destination wedding.

Thank you Nicole and Ryan for being willing to dress up again and let me take some pretty pictures! Here's a little preview of this Garden of the Gods elopement-styled session.
