It’s a new week with much to share. This shoot is very near & dear to my heart.  These PEOPLE are near & dear to my heart!  Part of the reason I love this shoot so much is because it takes me back to my original stomping grounds, where René Tate Photography was born: Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs.  I have developed quite the range of a network and it seems my job takes me everywhere but HOME.  So this Colorado Springs shoot was an absolute delight!

I am so excited to introduce to you Ashley & Jim.  Together they are happiness.  Together they are tenderness.  They are love.  They are JOY.  Together these two are laughter & adventure.

I adored our time together.  It’s incredibly special to do this job among friends.  Ashley has been an RTP fan for so long and has become a dear friend over the years.  She’s been an RTP bridesmaid at Lindsay & Riley’s wedding and finally she is an RTP bride herself!  I’m so thrilled to have gotten to know Jim better, and to know these two as a couple.  After our shoot, we went to my new favorite place in Colorado Springs, the Cowboy Star, for an amazing meal & conversation.

Jim & Ashley, gosh… I am SO excited for you.  THANK YOU for sharing your story with me.  Love you guys…

With joy,
René
