Katie & Ryan’s Engagement Session
Katie and Ryan’s engagement session took us down memory lane to the spot they first met – as neighbors in a duplex while they were studying at CU. After popping some champagne to commemorate this special location, we headed to Chautauqua Park to enjoy the beautiful fall colors! Katie and Ryan’s engagement story is one for the books – she accidentally discovered the ring in his car before they left on a trip to Iceland. In some quick thinking, Ryan told her he was waiting until they got back from the trip because he didn’t want to travel around the world carrying the ring in his pocket. However, Ryan actually did have the ring with him in Iceland and planned to propose next to an iconic waterfall – but someone else near them got down on one knee before Ryan had the chance. Ryan was finally able to propose when they hiked to a gorgeous glacier and Katie could not have been more surprised and thrilled! This adventurous, outdoorsy couple loves traveling, hiking, camping, and skiing – especially when they’re doing it together! I can’t wait to capture the next step of their love story as they tie the knot at Arapahoe Basin in August.
