Dave & Katie

Dave was in the Army stationed here in Alaska when he met this spunky southern girl. I met Katie after Dave got deployed to Iraq. She talked about Dave endlessly even though they weren’t together. He came home and it was almost like they picked up where they left off. It was so wonderful to see my friend so happy. Shortly thereafter he got out of the Army and it was back to Denver and he was taking Katie with him with a ring on her finger. It was bittersweet as I had to say good bye to such a dear friend but I knew they would be back.

When they did return they asked me to take their engagement pictures. It was barely 10 degrees outside and they were such good sports about it. I spent just as much time shooting these two as I did doubled over in laughter. We called it quits early as the bitter wind started to pick up and as the cold temperatures dropped even my poor camera struggled to function
