I wanted to share some of the images from Alaska! We had a great time, even with all the rain and stubborn un-setting sun!


These first images are from our extra long lay-over in Seattle - which turned out to be sunny and warm. Unfortunately, we had a disposable camera, so some of the Pike's Market images are underexposed.





This is one of my favorite images!



These guys were amazing and funky! The band name is The Walkin' Pesos, I highly recommend taking a listen.

This was an incredible store with vintage clothing, and I picked up a card, but now I can't find it, otherwise I would post their information.

We stayed at the Hampton for a couple of nights and they have done a wonderful job with branding. Everywhere you look they have interesting black and white photographs - much like eye candy (which I love!)








This may seem strange, to photograph a cup of coffee, and I'm sure 10 minutes into it the Baritsta's were wondering what I was up too... But it was so beautiful, I didn't want my husband to drink it before I captured the perfect image!



It rained so hard one day, we couldn't get out of the car...



This was the bedroom at one of our other hotels.













This is part of the Alaskan pipeline.




This is a map of the Alaskan pipeline.









For crazy people, like us, they have rooms that are -40F. Not sure why we agreed to pay to go into the room... They gave us a cup of warm water to throw into the air, and it disintegrated before it hit the ground. Totally crazy! Mine actually froze and broke all over the ground because I didn't throw it high enough.


Outside the crazy room, my glasses fogged over - and stayed that way for about 5 minutes.

Here is a picture of my fogged glasses, with a fogged camera lens.





This cemetery was amazing! It was a historical cemetery in Fairbanks and after we had been there a while the caretaker came and told us some fascinating stories.



This soldier's dog tags are actually mounted on his tomb! The story is, he drowned in a lake. And he hated to swim. Not only that, he was constantly being written up for being a sloppy dresser and his clothes were found on the shore folded perfectly. The theory is he had been seen with "Russian men" and they may have done away with him for one reason or another.

Denver Family Portraits, Kalani and Todd

When Kalani called and said she wanted to do pictures at her house, I was so excited! I love doing pictures in people's homes! I worry about toddlers in their own homes, they tend to be a little too comfortable and sometimes don't listen, but this little guy was amazing! He was definitely the star of the show! If you can't tell by this image, he likes attention!  And I just love how loved he is!  It is very heartwarming!  This little guy and his grandpa have this very special relationship, they can just look at each other and laughter commences.  It is super extra special!       For more information on High School Seniors, Portraits and Weddings call Natalie at 720-837-5378 or email natalie@nataliebeckphotography.com.  You can see work at www.nataliebeckphotography.com

Boulder Senior Pictures, Sonny

I did Sonny's sisters Senior Pictures last year, she has been friends with my son since kindergarten and I wasn't even thinking that Sonny would be next! And so close to his sister, I should have known, but I was still remembering him as a little middle schooler! When he got out of the car, I couldn't believe how tall he had gotten! All I could think was where was I last year?!?? And then I remembered, it was mostly inside and away from people. I am still like how did he grow up??   When we were in this spot there were a lot of people looking out over the point, I really wanted to do pictures here and I was hoping they would all clear out.  And they did, just long enough for us to do some pictures before the next group came in.  I love these!  And I love that the sun was right where Sonny was! Sonny's sister did her pictures here and it was covered in snow and I had no idea how close we were to an edge that just dropped off like that (ahhhhh!) or that there was this be

Fort Lupton Senior Pictures, Isaac

I was so excited to be doing another session with baseball! And then we got to the field - that is usually unlocked - and it was locked and the sprinklers were on. So that was slightly disappointing. We were still able to do a few on the outside, but I still wished we had been able to go inside and not get soaking wet! I love this one!  This one was my silver lining to the gates being locked.  I wouldn't have thought to do  if we had been on the inside.  It totally reminds me of endless summers and having fun! When I first arrived Isaac's mom told me how she found me and at first it all made sense... and then I was so confused.  She said she found me on Zillow, at first that sounded perfectly reasonable.  And then I thought, Zillow is a site for houses...  I am sure my face went from pleased to confused... But thank you Zillow for listing my business name because otherwise she wouldn't have called. I love this one! Isaac has such a marvelous smile!  And he is such a wonderf
