allison + slade - Big Horn Mountains

Allison and Slade grew up in the same town but never connected until they attended the University of Wyoming together. A mutual friend introduced them, and after taking a long drive from Laramie to Riverton together, they knew they couldn’t last another minute apart. Just under two years later, Slade popped the question during a family photo session. His entire family was there and dressed up and when Allison and Slade went to take their couple photo, Slade got down on one knee and proposed. They took their engagement photos in December in the snowy Bighorn Mountains. Kaylie Sirek captured their cozy, winter shoot during golden hour amidst Wyoming’s beautiful mountain backdrop.

“When shooting engagement photos, pick a winter activity like ice skating, playing in the snow, snowmobiling, or snow shoeing to help keep you moving, which helps keep you warm. It’s also a great distraction from the cold and makes for really fun photos that are unique to you as a couple!”
