Alex and Kyle | Engagement Session in Colorado Springs

I am so happy for these two! They make the perfect pair and their photo session was a complete dream! We did an evening session at Bear Creek Park and I am so in love with all of their photos. They are such naturals and I love how comfortable Kyle was nuzzling up next to Alex which made their photos so genuine and sweet. Their adopted 4-legged child Stella was also included in some of the photos and she was just a superstar! Stella really completes their family and I am so excited for them to make it official in December when Kyle and Alex tie the knot.

The evening was gorgeous and the weather was perfect. This may be one of my new favorite places to do sessions, and one of these days when I can hike a bit better (currently 36 weeks pregnant), I would love to come back to this park and explore a bit more. Alex tells me that there is a beautiful patch of wildflowers up on the hill which I would love to see! But for now, we settled for the bottom which also offered amazing views.

Again, these two were awesome to work with and I enjoyed every minute during their session, even when poor Stella was being chased by my camera bag! Luckily Kyle is much faster than I am and he was able to catch Stella and calm her down hopefully before she was traumatized too much by the excitement. Kyle and Alex have a special connection that will be a solid foundation for them to start their new lives together as husband and wife in a few more short months. Some of my favorite moments with them were when Kyle knew exactly what to do to get Alex to laugh and their heartfelt willingness to try a dip pose which I must say turned out amazing! I am so happy I was able to capture a few of these moments for them and hope it is something they will look back on for many years to come. Enjoy!
