Kate & Kevin are Engaged | Denver Wedding Photographer

February 7, 2013

Typically in the winter time we are pretty slow and catching up on blog posts and emails. Not this year, 2013 so far has been crazy busy with tons of engagement sessions. We love it! We love that we can connect with our couples for a whole 6+ months before their wedding since they did their engagement session early 🙂 We met Kate and Kevin just before the new year, and we instantly fell in love with their story and their love for one another. We are so excited for their wedding this October.

I am so in love with their proposal story, so I want to share it with you all:

Kevin and Kate decided to go hiking one last time before all the
mountains were covered in snow. The two decided that getting one last
leaf peeping hike would be wonderful. Kevin decided on Aspen, CO.
Little did Kate know, he had been planning this weekend for months,
including talking to Kate’s parents two weeks prior.

They woke up Saturday morning to snow. However, Kate refused to bail
on thier original idea to hike the Maroon Bells (lucky for Kevin). The
two put on all their snow gear and headed for the hike. It snowed
pretty steadily but it wasn’t freezing and none snow stuck to the
ground. The snow covered the trees and mountain tops and made for a
beautiful hike. Once Kevin and Kate got to Crater Lake, the two
decided to take a picture. Kevin took a picture with his cell phone
and Kate attempted to take a picture with her camera. Kate quickly
become frustrated with her camera and asked to see the picture that
Kevin took. This is where the magic happened …

Much to her surprise the picture she saw was not of the two of them,
but instead was a backdrop of the Denver Skyline, with a hand holding
up a sign that read “Kate”… The following pictures induded the
words, “Will”, “You”, & “Marry”. The final picture contained the
gleaming faces of the couple with Kevin holding a piece of paper with
the words “Me?” behind Kate’s head. By this point, Kate was tearing up
and Kevin was getting down on one knee. With Kate’s grandmother’s
engagement ring in hand, Kevin asked Kate to marry him. To top it off,
Kevin pulled out a bottle of champange and the two were able to
celebrate their engagment in style with snow covered Marron Bells in
the background.

 

Where else can you throw snowballs at each other in winter, and wear short sleeves? lol Gotta love Colorado.
