RMNP Anniversary Session, Estes Park CO {Phil & Tonya}

Husbands, fiances, boyfriends….you need to pay attention to this post. Girls like to feel special, they like to be surprised, they like to know you spend a lot of time thinking, anticipating and planning things for their birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, Christmas, Mother’s Day, National Cupcake Day, Groundhog Day. Haha, ok ok, maybe not the last 1…. ;-)

Well, Phil is the master at this. He and his wife Tonya celebrated their 10 year anniversary recently and he wanted to make it special for her. So he decided to surprise her….big time. He booked some plane tickets to Colorado, made reservations at the uber fabulous Della Terra in Estes Park, hired me to take some anniversary pictures of them and has a few more things up his sleeve (which I can’t mention because Tonya is probably reading this post and I don’t want to spoil any surprises!)

I think anniversary photos are such an important thing to do. David and I had our 3 year anniversary photos taken this fall and I treasure them. I think it’s important to document your marriage every now and then. I would be kinda sad if the only good pictures of David and I were of just our wedding day and no other time in our marriage.

So Phil, Tonya and I went and explored Rocky Mountain National Park (no frostbite this time, yay!), we braved the wind and the cold, spent a bit of time wildlife watching and just generally enjoying ourselves. I’m so honored that Phil asked me to help him out in his great scheme of planning the best anniversary trip for Tonya. I was humbled by their love. I can only pray that my marriage is as fun as theirs is, 7 years from now.

A few favs…

Erica - These are GREAT photos!! I am a friend of Tonya's and was born in Colorado -- great combination in my book!!

Michael C - Great pictures and by the looks of it a awesome trip!! You both deserve it. P.S. Way to make all of us look bad, thanks Phil ;)

Tonya & Phil - Wow! Becky, these pics are awesome! Thanks so much! We really enjoyed getting to meet you and these shots are even better than we expected. Can't wait to see the rest! Merry Christmas! Tonya & Phil

Tonya - I am back home in Tennessee where the temperature is now 60 degrees, but looking at these pictures (again and again) make me miss the snow. We had so much fun!!

Lori Ward - Wow - these pics are wonderful! As Tonya's best friend (and semi-reponsible for getting them together years ago), I can say that you truly catpured their love. Phil did indeed surprise her, and you played an important part in that. May you and your husband be blessed not only in the next 7 years but many many more!

Laura Smith - Awesome work, Becky. Good posing, Thomases Very photogenic love :) ~laura
