Martha and Valentin's Wedding

Martha and Valentin's wedding was wonderful.  It was a perfect day in between snow storms with blue skies and hardly any wind.  I couldn't have asked for a better day to photograph a bride and groom.     




Getting Martha into her dress was quite the task.  The room we were in was about 8 feet wide and 15 long and there were 5 bridesmaids, a bride, a photographer and a stray guest or two  crammed into the room.  But Martha was lucky to have so much help and she made it into her dress with just a couple of snags.




Had it been up to me (and if we had more time) I would have photographed all of the boys at the McDonald's Playland - inside and out.  But as it was we had just enough time for a few burgers.








Val and Martha are very wonderful people.  They care deeply for each other and they have a great respect for each other.  I really enjoyed being around their upbeat energy.I love it when there is another story going on.  It was the end of Spring Break for the CU campus and these two young men apparently lost their keys in their Spring Break shanigans.  I am sure this was the perfect ending to their Spring Break - I know I found it quite amusing.
Don't they all look awesome?








I really wish I had been the one taking these shots.  My wonderful assistant, who doubles as my husband on the side, was on the stairs above them and it worked beautifully.


I think this is my favorite garter picture ever!  I love that the little one is standing there waiting, just waiting for his dad.  He really was so patient.

Elli, Senior Pictures

  I was so excited for this session — my very first full Senior Session! These types of sessions are always my favorite!   It means I am getting back to work and there is always something so special about capturing a person right on the edge of everything new. And with Elli, I knew it was going to be a great one. From the moment we started planning, her energy and excitement made it clear: this was going to be one for the books. And it was — even with the weather throwing us a little curveball. About halfway through the session, the skies opened up and we had to pause for a solid 45 minutes. But honestly? Even that didn’t take away from how amazing the day was. The rain gave us a chance to slow down, laugh, and reset — and when we got going again, everything felt a little more magical - and the lighting post-rain? Gorgeous!   I was hoping for a rainbow, but sadly we missed that! Elli is such a joy to be around. She’s incredibly sweet, the kind of person who makes y...

Tanner's Senior Pictures, Boulder

This young man! He is fantastic! I loved that he knew what he wanted and we were able to find some marvelous spots!  Look at those colors!  They were so amazing!   I did Tanner's  sisters senior pictures  a few years ago and these two are just wonderful kids!  I really love working with their family!  They are just wonderful people! I love this one! I just love this one of these two! We were done and on the way back to the car when I saw the sky and I was I like we have to do more!  I ran to my car, got a light and we did a few more pictures! I love this one! I absolutely love this shirt!  It is so awesome!

Alex, Senior Pictures

  When I talked to Alex's mom, she said he really didn't want to do pictures and she thought the best thing to do was to do family pictures and then sneak some senior pictures in.  I don't usually do that, but I figured that she knew how he would be the most comfortable and what would be the most successful.    I am so glad that we did it this way, she was definitely right!  I hope Alex at least had a decent time, but I could tell that he was not really into it - maybe if I'd had another hour with him....  just kidding, I think that would have made him super anxious!  I just hope in the future he keeps allowing himself to be photographed for those he loves.  Because even though he didn't want to do it, he did a great job and didn't complain at all.                                                 ...
