Scenic engagement shoot in Vail, Colorado
Franki and Matthew traveled all the way from Baton Rouge on the Mississippi River for their Vail engagement photo session in the mountains, which was nothing short of magical. Captured by Colorado wedding photographer, Mary Ann Craddock, this fun and scenic session perfectly mirrored their journey together, filled with laughter, love and elegant style.
Nestled in the heart of the Rockies, Vail offers a breathtaking natural backdrop that is simply unparalleled. Franki and Matthew strolled hand-in-hand through fields of wildflowers, the peaks of the Gore Range towering majestically in the distance. Mary Ann captured them as they wandered into the charming village, stopping to steal a kiss by Gore Creek ss the golden hour light filtered through the aspen trees.
"The engagement session in Vail was a reflection of their vibrant personalities and shared passions," adds Mary Ann. "They started the session with outfits that paid homage to the West, complete with western boots and Kemo Sabe hats. Next, their second set of outfits included a tailored suit for Matthew and a stunning floral motif Zimmerman dress for Franki, adding elegance to the scenic backdrop."
