Hayden Green Mountain Park Couples Session | Amy, Connor & Frankie

 

There is something so special about documenting a moment for a friend. Whether it’s a wedding, baby shower, or graduation, you feel honored to be there and witness it, yet equally flattered to be the one capturing it. 

In the thick of the pandemic, Connor received a job offer for a company based in Denver. He and Amy were newly married and were faced with the choice of leaving their life in Chicago and starting fresh out west. They knew it was now or never so they packed up their things and began the long drive towards the mountains. Over two years later, they have no regrets.

Amy and Connor added little Frankie to their family a couple months ago. He is a wildly adorable ____ with a love for adventure like his parents. We drove just a little ways outside Denver to William Hayden Green Mountain Park so we could explore and let little Frankie run free. It was a beautifully quiet morning with minimal encounters from other nature-lovers. We basically had the whole place to ourselves. Now I know of an easy-to-get-to location for shoots as well as my own wanderings. On that note, here’s a list of other great easy-access spots just outside Denver:

Aspen Alley - Nederland

Guanella Pass

Golden Gate Canyon State Park

Saint Mary’s Glacier
