When Taylor and Grant first reached out to me, their message was short and sweet:

“We are last minute planning an elopement. This is going to be very low key. We really don’t know what we are doing. We just want pretty pictures.”

And honestly? That was more than enough to go on.


From the moment we met at Cheyenne Mountain State Park, it was clear these two weren’t interested in anything flashy or overly planned—they just wanted a peaceful moment together in a beautiful place to celebrate the beginning of their marriage. And that’s exactly what we created.


As the sun dipped behind the mountains, we wandered through grassy meadows and quiet overlooks. The light was golden, the breeze was soft, and every little glance between them felt so easy and full of love. Taylor looked radiant in her simple yet stunning dress, and Grant’s calm presence balanced everything out perfectly.


They may have joked about “not knowing what they were doing,” but their love was all the direction we needed. Every frame from their session tells the story of two people who stripped away the chaos and chose to focus on what matters most: each other.


Taylor and Grant—thank you for trusting me with your story. You reminded me that the most meaningful moments often come when we let go of expectations and lean into the now. I hope these images forever bring you back to this peaceful, golden evening on the mountain.
