Brighton Senior Pictures, Jonathan

Phew!  So glad I was finally able to get these up!  I tried uploading them yesterday and the little indicator was like tink        tink   tink tink tink       tink              tink                                      tink.  So annoying!  So here is Jon's Senior Pictures.  Who could have known it would be such an exciting session?  It was sunny and hot in Brighton, but at Red Rocks it was cloudy, cold and almost raining and then add on the Further concert at Red Rocks made for a very exciting session.  Or maybe it was Jon...  He is a very smart, well rounded and extremely funny young man!

 He has his own logo, printed on stickers that he can go and put all over town - kind of like Shepard Fairey's.  It is very cool!  He had to give his mom the little spray bottle he uses to attach the stickers.  I hadn't seen that before!






 I love this image (and spot!)
 What I really should have been taking pictures of was the concert prep.  The craziness of tie dye, overalls, gypsy skirts, dread locks - I didn't really smell much patchouli (or other things associated with the hippy genre), but maybe that trend is over...  But instead, I photographed the very cute little dear.  I'm really kicking myself for not photographing the chaos that we worked around, because it doesn't really show up in the images at all.
 I love this image too!


 Toward the end, Jon was just done and didn't want to smile, so we improvisied.  And that was my clue that perhaps we were done.

Isaak's Senior Pictures, Boulder

 Isaak was so easygoing and genuinely amazing to be around!  He wanted his senior pictures at sunset in Boulder, which is always a hit or a miss. There’s just something about that golden light hitting the rocks and mountains that makes everything feel magical. The only catch? Everyone else thinks so too. I picked this spot years ago because hardly anyone goes there. But this time, when we showed up, it was packed ! I couldn’t believe it. I was like, really?? Why here, today of all days? As it turns out, a sweet group of friends was setting up for a surprise proposal right in the middle of our spot. I mean, adorable, but also, the timing!  But honestly, that’s one of the things I love about my job, something unexpected always happens. Whether it’s weather changes, running late, surprise events, or wardrobe hiccups, it's always a challenge! And every single time, it ends up being even better than what I planned. We wandered off a bit and found these incredible rocks off...

Brayden, Golden, Co.

 When Brayden said he wanted to do his senior pictures at Red Rocks, I was totally on board, Red Rocks is always amazing and absolutely beautiful! The only problem was the day we were doing them there was a concert.  I was very nervous! I’ve done sessions there before when a concert was happening that night, and it just a very adventurous thing to do. There are so many cars!  And people.  They are everywhere!  I didn’t even know who was performing that night, but that doesn't mean much...  I was crossing my fingers that it would all work out. And thankfully it did! It was perfect. There weren’t many people around until the doors opened, and that gave us such an amazing window to get some incredible shots. These are probably some of the greatest images I have taken at the tunnel! It was very exciting! We were lucky to be blessed with some beautiful deer! You can see all the cars starting to show up!  I was going to take them out, but then I was...

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!...
