lauren + pace - Idaho Springs

Lauren & Pace

COLORADO

It was a random sunny college game day when Lauren and Pace met at his fraternity house at Florida State University. The way Pace approached her is one of their favorite stories to share and laugh about. Lauren was alone in his backyard eating peanuts out of her purse and Pace found it amusing and adorable, and knew he had to talk to her. They instantly hit it off and started dating. After college, they lived in different cities in Florida before moving to Colorado to be closer to each other and the mountains. After dating for seven years, Pace planned the ultimate surprise proposal in Positano, Italy. Madison Hope photography shot their snowy engagement session in Idaho Springs in late October. Lauren and Pace love the outdoors and consider the mountains their second home, which is why the opted for an outdoor winter shoot. They are planning an elegant mountain wedding in Vail for August 20th.

ADVICE FROM THE BRIDE

“We thought the contrast of our fall outfits with winter backdrop added a dramatic effect, and Madison our photographer encouraged us to play around with different backgrounds as she can work in any lighting or space. We loved the way they turned out!”
