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.

Sage's Senior Pictures, Boulder

 When I first showed up for Sage’s senior session, I just knew it was going to be something special. She was a little shy at first, but right away I could tell what a sweet and genuine young lady she is. And once she warmed up, she started to shine—it was such a joy to capture! The locations she chose were absolutely perfect, and they fit her so well. And then, as if the day knew how amazing Sage is, the sun came out just for her. It had been hiding behind the clouds for quite a while, but suddenly it burst through, lighting up her gorgeous hair and giving everything this beautiful, glowy warmth. It honestly felt magical, and I couldn’t have been more excited. Photographing Sage was such an honor. She’s kind, authentic, and absolutely radiant—I just adored every moment of her session! She has the greatest smile! I love these in the water!  It was such a beautiful day! I love this one!  It is just magical! Her and her brother are so cute! I love these in the grasses!...

Avery Senior Pictures, Denver Botanic Gardens

 Avery is one of my incredible Senior Influencers, and she totally rocked her session! From the very beginning, she was ready to go!  Every pose I put her in, she made look amazing — it made photographing her an absolute joy. We started at the Denver Botanic Gardens, which was the perfect backdrop for her session. Everywhere we turned there were stunning plants, colorful flowers, and hidden little corners. Avery looked so natural — it was like the gardens were showing off just for her! After exploring the gardens, we headed over to Cheesman Park to slow things down a bit. The vibe there was more relaxed, with gorgeous light. It gave us the perfect mix of elegance and laid-back charm, and Avery’s personality shone through every single shot.   This session was such a fun combination of vibrant and chill, and Avery made it all look effortless. I can’t wait to share more from her senior year as one of my Influencers—she’s truly a star in front of the camera! I just l...

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...
