Springtime in Colorado is pure magic, and Samantha, Devin, and their sweet pup, Riley, got to experience it firsthand during their Garden of the Gods couples photography session. Visiting from Wisconsin, they were soaking in the breathtaking red rock landscapes — and I was lucky enough to capture their adventure.

Sunset at the Siamese Twins – The Perfect Backdrop

We met at the Siamese Twins rock formation, one of my favorite spots in Garden of the Gods, especially at sunset. The golden light filtering through the natural arch creates such a dreamy atmosphere, and on this crisp March evening, it felt like spring was waking the park back to life.

Capturing Love, Adventure, and a Playful Pup

Samantha and Devin were bursting with energy, laughter, and love, making my job as their photographer an absolute blast. And then there was Riley — easily one of the most photogenic dogs I’ve ever worked with! From sprinting along the trails to striking perfect poses in front of Pikes Peak, he stole the show in the best way.

We focused on a mix of candid adventure shots and classic portraits, blending the natural beauty of their connection with the stunning Colorado backdrop. The result? A gallery that tells their story with joy, movement, and golden-hour magic.

For couples who want to bring pets along, my Family Photography Packages are perfect for including your four-legged family members in a session.
