Steamboat Springs Engagement: Karen and Steve

Greetings from beautiful Las Vegas! Well, I don’t know about beautiful… let’s say steamy.  Hot and steamy.  Like 100 degrees hot and steamy. Almost as hot as these images you’re about to see.

Karen, Steve, and I met up in Karen’s hometown of Steamboat Springs over Memorial Day weekend.  Our original plan was to shoot some images in and around a hot air balloon since that’s where Steve was going to propose.  Two mornings in a row we tried for the balloon trip, but both days were cancelled due to weather. :-(  Luckily, we planned a safety shot session for such an event. And I’d say it came out pretty smokin’.

What I love about these two is how casual they are.  Karen went barefoot – how cool is she?  I also love how much they appreciate the outdoors.  They’re spontaneous, easy-going, and in love.  My favorite kind of people… :-)

These images pretty much look like they came out of the Sound of Music.  Enjoy. :-)

Kind of random, but we came across these horses on the side of the road and had to shoot a few images of them.

I love it when puppies get to come!

Karen, you are a knockout!  I love these shots of you!

I wasn’t kiddin’ about steamy…

SO gorgeous!

!!!

Love.

Okay, time for The Sound of Music.

:-D

Karen and Steve, you two are so wonderful!  Seriously.  Cutting a little loose with you over margs was awesome.  I can’t wait for your day! Love you guys!
