Prism Romantic Ceremony | Arrowhead Golf Course Wedding

Arrowhead Golf Course Wedding: a day to remember

August 26, 2020 From the Hip Photo

We were lucky enough to photograph this absolutely stunning Arrowhead Golf Course wedding. It was such a nice day for Hanna and Justin to start their lifetime of love together, and we're so happy we got to help them remember this moment forever! Saying, "I do!" was the most anticipated part of the wedding, especially since Hanna knew she wanted to marry Justin the night that she met him. Love is in the air Nestled in the foothills of Colorado's majestic Rocky Mountains in Littleton, Arrowhead Golf Club is where Hanna and Justin tied the knot. Located 30 miles south of Denver sits majestic red rocks bulging out of the ground, making it the perfect location for this beautiful couple! From the beginning, they wanted 3 specific things from their wedding that Arrowhead Golf Club provided for them! These included a beautiful outdoor setting, good food, and good music. Choosing Arrowhead Golf Course as their venue took care of two of those things. They then spent months curating the music they wanted during each part of their wedding. At the end of the day, a wedding is about celebrating not only the couple coming together but two families joining together

A Sweet Colorado Engagement |Kaeli & Sam

February 19, 2019 From the Hip Photo

How can engagement photos get any sweeter? Kaeli and Sam sugar coated their engagement photos at Scrumptious, a local candy shop in Longmont, Colorado. After the sugar rush, we continued the fun at Cheese Importers, also located in Longmont. The locations were a perfect fit for the couple as the fun, authentic, and romantic sweet delicacies of the relationship are captured. A Sweet Story Coincidentally, the two met while Kaeli was babysitting for a neighbor. Sam just so happened to previously live in that same house where Kaeli was babysitting. Sam knocked on the front door to pick up old mail. As Kaeli opened the door she was in awe as the two locked eyes. Strangers face to face, but that first gaze was the spark of the luscious life that was promised ahead. It was destined to be as the two had family members that also knew each other. What a small world! Sam popped the question while on a romantic trip to Ireland showing us all that love at first sight is in fact real! Sweet & Savory Locations There are no boundaries when choosing locations to shoot your engagement photos. We love getting creative and finding new
