THINGS I LOVE | Fall TV

My favorite night of the week during the fall season is tied between Wednesdays and Thursdays… Everyone talks about fall and their love of it. About the sweaters and pumpkin spice lattes, the cute boots, crisp air and leaves. Which, um YES, I LOVE love love all of that too… But let’s talk about the nights cuddled up on the couch, under your favorite blanket, in your favorite sweats, watching your favorite fall shows…

Wednesdays nights Jake and I both drag out our favorite sweats… Jake gets a bowl of ice cream with hot fudge and asks me if I want some. I always answer no, but he knows to put a few extra bites in the bowl, because I will inevitably always ask if I can have some.  I sit by his side and snuggle under his arm. Slowly the arm snuggle turns into a leg over his lap, which then slowly become a full fledge flop. Which I know drives him crazy, but I am going to continue to think deep down he loves that about me. With the lights off and the curtains closed we indulge in our favorite fall TV shows together. Criminal Minds, followed by the new show Revenge.

Thursdays look a bit different though… Thursdays… ahhhhh. I love Thursdays. We have an understanding that on Thursdays, this is my night. My night to flop alone, my night to have a couple glasses of wine, my night to be off duty from from being a mommy for two hours… where I get to do nothing but relax, zone out, and watch the girly shows,Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice (not that there is anythign worng with dudes watching or even enjoying, Mike) 🙂

Ahhh  fall Thursdays, I have missed you! It’s 4:48 pm, and I am signing off for the day! Dinner, wine and an evening of doing nothing await me.

What are your favorite fall TV shows??

MARK & SARAH | Downtown Denver Engagement

We always send our couples a getting to know you sheet that we have them both fill out prior to their sessions, this way we make sure we hit the mark (no pun intended) on where and when to have their session. Sarah and Mark, you guys rock! It was so great reading through your sheets again! Not only were we able to learn so much about you both while hanging out, but we really are grateful you were so open with us. Between learning about you guys that way and getting to spend so much time with you guys, it really makes us even that much more excited to share in your amazing weekend coming up!

Here is a run down of just how awesome these two are… One our sheet we have “Name three things you love about your fiancé” here is what Mark said: Narrowing it down to three is impossible but I love the way she jumps around and does little dances when she is excited. I love when she first gets up in the morning and stumbles out with sleep in her eyes but still manages to give me a hug and a smile. Thirdly, I love how she has everyone around her immediately her best friend in thirty seconds or less. And when Sarah laughs it bursts through her eyes with huge sparkles of joy. It is so amazing that I will do anything to get her to chuckle.

And for “What do you think is unique about you as a couple” Sarah said: Unique… All of the things I want to type here I hope are not unique to Mark and I. We really are each other’s best friends, but I hope everyone feels that way. We were both very happy being single and that makes us even more sure that we are with our perfect match because we choose to be together for love.

How perfect are those answers?? (I hope you don’t mine me spilling your love) Their love for each other and life will shine in their wedding weekend. I know it is sure to have some stunning images, so stay tuned for a awesome weekend full of fun with these two! Until then… lets start with showing you this lovely couple on their own stomping grounds and first date location, the Goosetown Tavern!

Meet the ever so bubbly and beautiful Sarah, along with her trusty sidekick fiancé Mark!

Julie Evans - Beautiful Pic’s, Sarah!! I am so happy for you!! You look thoroughly and completely happy!

Julie Evans (Whitney’s Mom)

BRANDON & BRYNN | Denver Engagement

Stolen glances and secret crushes, tennis games, and margaritas… That was all it took for Brynn and Brandon to finally be able to open up to one another. Where they both admitted they had a crush on each other.

Hanging out with these two at Wash Park, where it all began, was soooo much fun. We laughed alll night! When I asked Brynn about what she loved most about Brandon, she talked about really loving Brandon’s humor and how he can always make her laugh. And that was apparent, these two were all smiles. There is something about being some one’s best friend and being able to trust them with every inch of who you are… Brandon told us being with Brynn, even if it is just next to her, feels like home to him, about how much he loves her beautiful eyes, and that she can make him laugh harder than anyone else. That is what love is about. Sharing who you are with the person you love. Taking all that love and creating a new life together… And that is exactly what they have done together.

Brynn and Brandon, we are so excited to be able to spend another day with you guys in a couple of weeks at your wedding in the Denver Botanical Garden at Chatfield! You two are a perfect match for one another and your love is so apparently in the way you look at each other. Thank You for allowing us into your lives. We couldn’t have asked for a better couple to photographer. You guys and the little family you have created together with Seamus is something people search for. Really embrace and enjoy what you two have, because it really is special! Thanks for hanging out with us and we will see you soon!
