Cheyenne Mountain Zoo: Marne & Arthur

Good morning!  It’s official fall!  I am loving these hot days and cool nights and can’t wait to take some drives into the mountains to see our beautiful aspens!

I’m soooo excited to start your Tuesday with the stellar wedding of the one and only Marne and Arthur.  This day was over the top, filled with laughter.  And some tears, both from the bride and groom and the sky. After Marne and Art’s glorious ceremony that left everyone in tears, the sky bursted at the seams and pours!  Thank goodness for the covered carousel. :-)

I’m gonna let these images peak for themselves.  They’re some of my favorite of the season!  Enjoy!

xoxo,
René

P.S. Gotta give a HUGE shoutout to Mike Lyon for second shooting with me.  He’s been a part of RTP for years and is such an amazing photographer and videographer.  You go check out his web site!

With 20 years of experience, I bring a calm, steady presence to your most meaningful days. I specialize in documenting relationships over time—from weddings and anniversaries to babies and families—with a love for black-and-white imagery, honest moments, and photographs that belong in albums, not just on a feed. There are no forced poses or “pretend to” prompts here, only space for what’s real. I’m not just here for the highlight; I’m here for the history you’re creating.

And I can't wait to capture your story
