Colorado Events, Karina's Quince part 1

Here is part 1 of Karina's Quinceanera, I decided to do in parts because I have been so crazy busy, I thought maybe I might get some sleep tonight.  I have known Karina since she was little, little.  I think the first time I met her she was 3 or 4 and just a teeny, tiny thing and now I honestly can't believe that she just turned 15!  And not just because that means my own daughter will be turning 15 right after her, that is only part of it... And that means that her brother and my son are going to be 20... I guess I'd rather not think about it.... Anyway, I was very pleased to do her Quinceanera pictures and to hang out with her family!
 I totally love her shoes!







 Don't her and her mom look fabulous???
 She was so lucky to get a limo to ride around in for a few hours.  A pink one no less!
 The limo!  We were supposed to go downtown and I am not really sure why we didn't, but my back and nose would have preferred not to be stuck in the back of a cramped limo full of sweaty teenagers - just sayin'!  I did learn more about the teenage species though - they do not like to listen to a song all the way through, they LOVE taking pictures of themselves, they are constantly checking facebook/instagram/twitter/somethingelseIcan'tremember, they don't like balloons in their faces (who could blame them?), they do not like me taking their pictures, they get all excited about finding Red Bull in the limo wet bar and will tear apart the limo to find more and they quickly forget an adult is present making me wonder what my daughter says with her friends.

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

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

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
