Even though the wind was absolutely crazy, we still managed to get a few shots in. Enjoy! View our 2023 family session!

Wow, what a stunning mountain venue for one of the sweetest couples we've ever met! When Nathan's mom (my amazing colleague at BRCS) said her son and his sweet fiance who "loves Jesus more than anything" want us to be part of their day, I was thrilled.
