Dog Pool Party in Erie, Colorado

Saturday was a crazy, crazy day! I started out photographing an adorable 3 1/2 year old little boy up for adoption! He was soooo cute and sweet! He even gave me a hug when I left. Then I was off to spend 2 hours shooting dogs at the pool - after this I have seriously considered changing my career. I'm just not sure that there enough dog pool parties to feed me for the rest of my life... We'll just have to see. Anyway, this K-9 pool party was hosted by The Healthy Bone, a wonderful pet supply store in Erie, Colorado. Chris, the owner, has watched our dogs before. As wonderful as Chris was, I was deeply saddened when I picked my dogs up and they whined when HE drove away. Not only that, they ran to watch him leave and barked for him to come back. I was very pleased to see that there was a Life Guard on duty, just in case. The only problem was he (I think it was a he) didn't really want to get wet past his paws.
There were lots of tennis balls to be had... and chased... and chewed on...

Some dogs were a bit more aggresive than others. He-he!






Some dogs were in need of help, especially after they were thrown, pushed or tossed into the water.





I had a wonderful time photographing these guys, but it did prove to be difficult. I got lots of shots like this and splashes with tails and a leg or two leaving the frame. Either way, it was a blast!


Eeeeeeeewwwwwww! His dog's tongue is touching his FACE! I love my dogs, but I have limits! And anything with a tongue, should keep their tongue to themselves and definitely not on my face!

This would be Chris from The Healthy Bone, the wonderful person that allowed all these dogs into the pool. Yay Chris!

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

Boulder Senior Pictures,

Macy is such a happy young lady! It was so wonderful to hang out with her for a little bit! And what a beautiful day! We were so lucky because the day before it was raining in Boulder. I just adore Macy's smile!  She is so sweet! I cannot remember the actresses name that Macy looks like, but she really looks like her!  She is so classy in this image! The mountains looked so good this day! I love the colors in this one!  It is such a great spot for pretty trees! Her mom is so funny!  I love this image! I love these 2!  They are so sweet together! I think Macy thought I was a little crazy asking her to spin and walk funny, but then she got into it and she had some fun!   Love, love, love this one! This path is always so wonderful!  And Macy looked so awesome on it! I feel like the sun came out on this day because Macy was there!  She is such a bright and happy being!  She is just wonderful to be around!         For more information on High School Seniors, Portraits and Weddings call
