Sunrise engagement session in Boulder, Colorado

Colorado Adventure Sessions

for couples who want epic photos to remember this time in life

adventure (noun)
– an exciting or remarkable experience

Getting your photos taken should be more than an item on the long checklist of tasks to complete before your wedding. And it’s not reserved for when you’re newly engaged, either.

An adventure session is any opportunity to spend quality time with your partner, and get photos that capture how much you love each other.

You can hike your favorite trail to get photos in a place you love, walk your dog around your neighborhood, or document your first trip to the mountains. You can celebrate getting engaged (or pregnant), buying your first home, or adopting a new puppy—any moment in time that you want to remember.

“We booked Nina for our engagement photos in winter. She really means adventure—we were climbing in the snow and having a great time. She totally had us at ease in front of the camera, laughing and having fun!”

let’s talk about your adventure session

Nina was beyond incredible. We were on the fence about doing an engagement shoot at all and on top of that, I got altitude sickness that morning and almost cancelled last minute. I am SO THANKFUL that we went forward with Nina after everything! The pictures capture our love so beautifully, I’ve looked at them 100 times over…. I love them so much!

“We felt like we were hanging out with an old friend, who also happened to be a pretty amazing photographer. We hired Nina for our wedding immediately after seeing our engagement photos because they were astounding. We STILL get compliments on how “us” they were.”

Frequently Asked Questions

I’ll email you a guide with all my favorite locations to choose from after you’ve booked, but please let me know if you have anything specific in mind—I love shooting in locations that hold meaning to my couples whether it’s the brewery where you had your first date or a walk around your neighborhood with your dog.

I’ll email you a guide with everything you need to know to prepare for your session after booking!

You can book an adventure session up to three months in advance.

You contact me, we schedule a quick call to get to know each other and make sure we’re a good fit, then you sign a contract, pay your session fee, and we get started on planning your session.

I photograph all sessions on both digital and film cameras, so that you get the best of both worlds. You can read more about my approach to film photography here.

You’ll get 3-5 sneak peek photos within two days after your session, and your full gallery will be ready within four weeks.

Your photos are delivered in a digital gallery that you can easily share with family and friends. You can download your photos as many times as you want, as high resolution files without any watermarks. Your online gallery will be live for one year, so you’ll need to download and backup your photos elsewhere.

Yes, every photo is edited in a style consistent with what you see on my website. I don’t retouch body shapes, hair, skin, or clothing, because I want you to look like yourselves in your photos!

You can order high quality prints, wall art, cards, and albums directly from your online gallery. All products ordered from your gallery come from my preferred printing labs, and are shipped directly to your home.

You’ll also get a print release that allows you to print your photos anywhere you’d like, but I can’t guarantee the colors and quality on any prints and products ordered outside of your gallery shop.

“Nina made us feel so at ease during our engagement session and it showed in every photo. We’ve received so many compliments on our photos on how natural and authentic the photos feel and it’s all due to Nina’s direction and attention to detail.”

“My fiancé and I were blown away by our engagement session! We had contacted a couple other photographers first, but Nina was by far the easiest to get in touch with and talk to. We told her what we were looking for and she knew exactly where and when to take the pictures. Photoshoots can be awkward, but with Nina it was so comfortable, she kept us smiling and laughing the whole time!”
