Love in the Rockies: A Stunning Snow-Kissed Elopement in Estes Park

Some love stories are so magical, they deserve to be celebrated in every way possible. For Lora and Leslie, their love was a testament to the fact that true romance has no age limit. Traveling across the country on a post-wedding road trip, they decided to pause in the breathtaking beauty of Estes Park, Colorado, for an elopement session to commemorate their marriage. I had the absolute honor of capturing this moment for them, and their story is one I’ll never forget.

A Romantic Adventure Through Colorado

When Lora and Leslie first reached out, they shared how they were embarking on a journey together, both literally and figuratively. Their road trip across the states wasn’t just about the destinations—it was a celebration of their marriage, their companionship, and their new life together. Their stop in Colorado, with the snow-capped Rocky Mountains as their backdrop, was the perfect setting for photos that encapsulated their love story.

A Day Full of Laughter and Love

Lora and Leslie’s session was one for the books. Despite the chill in the air and snow still lingering in some parts of the mountains, they brought nothing but warmth and joy. From the moment we started, you could see how deeply they cared for each other. Their playful interactions and the way they lit up when they looked at one another made every photo come alive. It’s always a special treat to witness couples acting like kids in love, especially when they’re in the older stages of life. Lora and Leslie reminded me that love truly keeps us young at heart.

Exploring the Beauty of Estes Park

One of the most fun parts of this session was Lora and Leslie’s adventurous spirit. They were absolute troopers as we explored multiple locations in Estes Park to capture a variety of shots. From the serene snow-dusted trails to sweeping mountain vistas, they embraced every setting with enthusiasm and gratitude. The natural beauty of the Rockies only enhanced their undeniable connection, and each photo told a story of a love that’s both enduring and joyful.

Capturing a Timeless Connection

Photographing Lora and Leslie was a reminder of why I do what I do. Seeing their love, their laughter, and their adventurous spirit was inspiring. Their journey together, both on the road and in life, is a testament to the beauty of finding your person and cherishing every moment with them. The snow, the mountains, and the crisp Colorado air were simply the backdrop to a love that shines through no matter the setting.

A Celebration of Love at Any Age

Lora and Leslie’s story is proof that it’s never too late for a new adventure or for a love that makes your heart skip a beat. I’m so grateful to have been part of their journey, capturing memories they can look back on for years to come. As they continue their travels and celebrate their marriage, I hope these photos remind them of the beautiful moment they shared in Estes Park.

Lora and Leslie, thank you for letting me be part of your story. Your love is truly inspiring, and I wish you nothing but joy and happiness on this incredible journey together.
