Why Denver?
Anthony and Mary wanted their engagement photos to reflect both their playful personalities and the classy, enduring bond they share. We aimed to highlight the fun spots that scream Denver while keeping it elegant and true to them as a couple, making it a meaningful Denver engagement session.
Their engagement session in Denver was especially meaningful because they have been navigating a long-distance relationship. Mary resides in Georgia, while Anthony lives in Colorado.

Their Denver engagement session thus symbolizes their shared journey.

Anthony and Mary’s Love Story
Anthony and Mary’s relationship began at Auburn University, where they met during freshman year. It wasn’t until sophomore year that they became close friends. Interestingly, Anthony thought they were dating that year, but Mary just thought he was a very friendly guy! It wasn’t until a mutual friend asked how their relationship was going that Mary realized they were dating. Their recent Denver engagement session truly captures this journey.
Fast forward to April 2024, when Anthony proposed on the rooftop of Hotel Claremont in Atlanta. He picked Mary up from school and told her they were getting drinks with his cousin. Upon reaching the top, Mary saw pictures and flowers laid out. Initially confused, she thought she had forgotten an anniversary or birthday. Then, Anthony got down on one knee and proposed!
Wedding Plans
Anthony and Mary are planning a summer wedding in 2025 in Austin, Texas. The ceremony will be held at Our Lady’s Maronite Church, followed by a reception at the Etter-Harbin Alumni Center. With their love for exploration, it’s sure to be a celebration filled with joy, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
Capturing Anthony and Mary’s Denver engagement session was a true pleasure. Denver provided the perfect backdrop for their love to shine, and I am beyond excited to see where their journey takes them next. I cannot wait for their wedding, they are curating an incredible list of vendors!
