Boulder Senior Pictures, Ashlie

Ashlie is such a sweet girl and just a little bit shy.  I did her friend Rachel's Senior Pictures and she told me how wonderful Ashlie was - I just love glowing recommendations from friends!  I was very lucky to have 2 friends helping me out with her session, I do have to say how strange it was not to be carrying everything and to have someone there to help with lenses, umbrellas and the like.
 Boulder Creek was perfect that day!  Not too high and not too low!  I wish I could keep it that way for the rest of the season.  Maybe a little bit warmer, it was very chilly in the water.


 I love this image!

 Aren't those the coolest boots ever???
 At this point, the water was very cold!  But when I climbed out and my legs started to prickle, I kind of wanted to go back in the water.  I don't know how Ashlie's legs and toes were holding up, but mine were quite angry with me.  And actually I'm surprised that Ashlie doesn't have more of 'what are doing???' look on her face because I was in the water up to my thighs and practically laying on top of the water to get this shot.  Sometimes I wonder what I was thinking, but at the time it always seems like a good idea.  And makes for a fun shot!




 I loved this outfit!

 I love the bear!  And I hope Ashlie doesn't mind me sharing this...  The bear is made from a shirt of grandfather's and she wanted to have a photograph with it for her grandmother.  I was so touched.

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.                                                 ...

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...
