Brighton H.S. Senior Pictures, Tabor

When Tabor's mom called me, I had to do a double take because I did one of his sister's Senior pictures when he was in 8th grade.  I was pretty sure that his mom was mistaken and that he wasn't really a Senior, but a Sophomore.  It turns out she was right...  I couldn't believe that it had been 5 years!  Tabor was very laid back, easy going and had a great sense of humor.  Which was good, because the location we had selected had trains moving around - I thought the tracks were not used anymore.  But apparently Union Pacific is "rebuilding America" right here in Brighton - on my rail road tracks.  They've moved in these funny looking train cars and they're moving trains around like little kids with a train set.  We didn't get to do a lot of pictures on the tracks, and I definitely didn't want him sitting on the tracks in case one of those trains started barreling towards us.
I love this building, it is a wonderful background - without the trains being stored in front of it.  What are they thinking??



 I don't remember exactly what was going on, maybe he was annoyed at smiling or posing, but it was like he was tempting me with this face - so of course I had to take it!




 Because of the limited  places by the tracks, we decided to go somewhere else and I was really glad we did.  I loved these pictures.  I think Tabor was a little done with pictures - plus it was so very hot!  That was before all the rain we've gotten in Colorado the last couple of days.
 I love this image!

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...
