Salida Colorado Engagement Session | Katie and Danny | Salida Colorado Photographer

It’s rare that we shoot an engagement shoot for a couple, but not their wedding. But when we heard that Katie and Danny were flying in from all over the country to get their Mount Princeton Hot Springs wedding planning done, we were thrilled at the chance to be in one of their chapters during wedding planning. Even though these two had their photographer friend flying in from California, I was so excited to meet them and hear their story. Capturing their love was extra icing on the cake!

We spent the morning floating around parts of Salida and Nathrop, Colorado looking for the best spots to snag a view of Mount Princeton, the mountain that made me move to Colorado some 8 odd years ago. One of our favorite places to hike happened to have “lots of trees”, which is what Katie told Aly (Knot Just Another Wedding), her wedding planner she wanted for the session. Trees she wanted and trees she got! Hearing about Katie and Danny’s love story was truly wonderful. Both active military, these two have been running around the states trying to get their wedding day planned for this coming summer. Lucky for them, they’ve got the best in the industry on their team! With only 48 hours in town, Katie and Danny were able to knock out a ton of wedding planning (thanks to Aly) and even coordinate getting their mountain engagement shoot done! What a whirlwind for them!

Thank you so much, you two! It was an honor to be apart of this chapter in your engagement and we wish you the BEST wedding day ever!
Cheers,
Taylor

“We knew our photos were going to be something we would treasure forever, but what we didn’t expect to walk away with was an effortless bond turned friendship.

Taylor and Mike are not just invested in capturing the magic of the wedding day, but their heart is in it for the marriage and future that follows.”

-Brett & Mendy

I did not feel rushed or anxious, just simply in the moment—which was most important as this would be a once in a lifetime experience—and believe me, Taylor and Mike made it memorable. Separately they are an absolute delight, and together they make the ultimate team and genuine couple. You can see the true dedication they put into making that day, your day…special! It was an absolute joy to work with this inspirational couple."

"With grace and charm, Taylor and Mike set the tone for our beautiful wedding day!

-Jake & Christina

They did everything we asked and more. Our friends and family keep remarking how great our photographers were. They took so many photos and delivered them in such a fast turnaround."

"Taylor and Mike are professional, friendly, detailed, flexible, committed—exactly the kind of presence you want from photographers on your wedding day! 

-Chris & Kim

On the day, they were so organized and kept things moving at a perfect pace. We never felt rushed yet were able to adhere to our timeline perfectly. They made everyone, including my generally camera-shy husband, feel at ease making for photos with real smiles."

"From start to finish, Taylor and Mike take great care to make sure you are comfortable and have clear and prompt communication. 

-Jake & Haydn

We are so impressed with not only them as people and their amazing work, but also their communication skills throughout the entire planning process."

"Taylor and Mike have a great ability to take photographs in places no ordinary person would ever think of, and, while still focusing on you, they are also able to capture the beautiful scenery.

-Adam & Sydney

Though we had never met, it was as though we were life-long friends and it was immediately apparent we wanted to work with them. They are so pleasant, personable, and go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and relaxed. We were so worried the photo process would be weird and awkward, but they made it one of the most fun aspects of the whole day. To top it all off, the photos are simply gorgeous!"

“We gave them a call and they were the first, and only, photographers we spoke with.
