Kalyn & Ross | Golden Hour Couple Session in the Burn Scar

Kalyn and Ross’s session felt like magic unfolding in the most unexpected place — a burn scar area in Colorado Springs, where nature is slowly reclaiming the landscape with tall golden grasses and dramatic silhouettes of charred trees.

We arrived just in time to chase the light as it danced across the hills, casting a warm glow through the skeletal branches. There’s something powerful about photographing love in a place that’s experienced so much loss and regrowth — it made their connection feel even more alive.

They brought along their two dogs, who added a playful energy to the whole experience. Between tail wags and cuddles, Kalyn and Ross shared so many authentic, joy-filled moments. Whether they were walking hand-in-hand through the grasses or playing fetch with the pups, every frame was effortless and full of life.

This session was the perfect mix of intimate, wild, and golden. It’s a reminder that beauty exists in every season — even in the quiet aftermath of fire. Kalyn and Ross brought the light with them.
