Real Winter Elopement – Kari & Craig photographed by Brittany
We love helping couples find the most perfect spot for their elopements and small weddings. Kari and Craig had deep ties to the Keystone, CO area. I knew then that the Loveland pass area would be perfect for them!
We were so honored to be a part of Kari & Craigs winter elopement even though no epic views were visible due to the near white out conditions. It couldn’t have been a more perfect day because the snow made it an absolute winter wonderland – ever winter eloping couples dream come true!
Brittany was lucky enough to be their photographer for the day and here is what she had to say about their winter elopement!
Winter Elopement Story by Brittany
“When I first tried to contact Kari about details for their elopement she text me back and asked if I could talk later on in the week because she had family in town and didn’t want them to know about their elopement. Oh, this is not the traditional way people get married it was so sweet to be a part of their intimate day!
One thing that I love about photographing Elopements with just the couple is that I become more to them than just a photographer.
Showing up and helping Kari make final decisions on what she is going to wear and how she’s going to do her hair, make it much more of a personal experience for me. I’m not one to put my opinions on other people and so it’s fun for me when I am specifically asked to help and that my opinion is valued.
Driving through the snowy mountains was a bit intimidating but so rewarding when we found a little intimate spot deep in the snow that kari and Craig could say their vows together surrounded by God‘s creation.
This elopement added a new level of importance as far as the photography piece. No one else was going to experience their day but the three of us and I was to capture all that it encompassed.
I deeply thank Kari and Craig for entrusting their day into my hands to capture for not only them but all of their friends and family also.
Craig & Kari’s love is deep and true. They weren’t concerned about every little detail but just that their time together was well spent. This is such a beautiful picture of marriage and deep love.”
