Elbert, Colorado Anniversary Portraits: Cindi & Mike
They live out in the country. Secluded. Together.
He calls her “hun” in the sweetest way possible.
She wears his mother’s wedding ring as her own.
He’s protective of her.
Her eyes are goregous. Filled with joy and sparkling with love. Like she’s never seen heartache. But really, she’s conquered it.
His eyes are deep. Overflowing with wisdom and intensity of all he’s seen in 18 years as a policeman, yet so much compassion pours out.
They live out in the country.
Secluded.
Together…
They’ve been married for 13 years, but you’d think only 13 days by their playfulness and loyalty.
Though they haven’t been blessed with children of their own, they’ve been blessed with five God-children. They’ve been blessed with the gift of loving them and each other. And when the going hasn’t been easy and will likely be rough again, and even when it is easy… they hang onto each other.
And it was that bond which intrigued me most.
Their together bond…
As one of Cindi and Mike’s best friends told me, “[They’re] not just like typical spouses. They are an inspiration for any couple.”
And I don’t even know the half of it…
Mike and Cindi, you two truly are an inspiration. I can only hope my thirteenth wedding anniversary is filled with as much childlike joy and sweet love as yours. To say I enjoyed our time together is an understatement. I eagerly await our paths to cross again.
So much love and joy to you.
xoxo,
René

I look at these pics today and think, “yep I was right they still have that same chemistry that they had 13 years ago”. Great to see that you guys are doing well…. Gosh I miss those smiles!

We feel like we gained another friend as well. These photos make me smile & feel proud of what I have. I love my life & I love my wife. Thank You
Cindi and Mike truely have been an inspirational couple. I have been married for a year and a half, and even i would mistake them for newly-weds. They have shown me how to love unconditionally. Their inspirational message of love and friendship have helped me grow to be a strong loving person and wife. Cindi and Mike you two are the best!!
Cindi and Mike really are an amazing couple. Their inspirational message of love and friendship have helped made me realize that true love comes in all shapes and sizes, and in my case ages. Cindi and Mike, I hope that Jake and I can provide the strong message of love and friendship the way you have for me.
Stunning pictures…the love you share shines through in all the pictures. You are an inspiration to all!
Absolutely amazing photo’s!! Mike and Cindi, you are such a beautiful couple. You can see all of the love in the world for each other in your eyes. You two are truly blessed to have found each other, and are even more blessed to be able to share your love for one another each and everyday. Cherish one another each day; don’t take each other for granted; and kiss like it’s the first time, everytime.
The most wonderful couple I know… here’s to finding the happiness you have found together.. your photos brought tears to my eyes, beautiful!! xx love you Diecks, xx Kris
