In the Colorado desert, a woman and a man stand, embracing. She is on her tip toes so that she can touch her nose to his. The background is a landscape of striated rock with a rusty red streak. The foreground a rust-colored dirt trail and chaparral.

I met Colleen and Adam at the Colorado National Monument, for their engagement photos. This location was truly special. Although I had lived in Colorado for 13 years, it was my first time visiting the area, and I was blown away by the unique landscape.

We managed to squeeze these photos in during the last 30 minutes of daylight, due to a last minute hiccup of forgetting the rings at home. Even with the short amount of time we had, I loved how the photos turned out, and absolutely loved spending the evening with these lovebirds.
