Some thoughts

 
I have a favorite photographer in Ireland (Rinkadink Studios) and this morning she posted a picture of herself with her son.  She talks about how she wasn't loving her hair that day and how she felt fat - but she says that all the smiles and happiness make up for all that. I have been thinking about this all summer! I have blogged about it before, but I think it is wonderful coming from a photographer from a picture she was in! I have had so many mom's tell me they will book a session when they have lost that last 5 pounds, they never have. Your kids are only this age once and if you wait until you have lost such and such weight, your kids will have moved on (because that's what the little buggers do!) I have a few mom's that know this and I celebrate them to the moon and back! Even though they are uncomfortable, they know that this is important to do now! These times - whether it be babyhood, toddlerhood, that big middle kidhood or teenagehood, these times are not permanent and will be gone as quick as you make dinner. When your kids are losing teeth and there's that gaggle toothed smile - it will be gone in a month and when you see that picture you took at the zoo wishing they had more teeth years from now, you will wish you had taken more. Because it is adorable! And if you happen to be in that picture, your heart will melt. And you will wish you had taken more. Because it is adorable!
 
Janine, from Rinkadink, said it best, "Give your kid the gift of the happiest moment with his mum, to make him feel safe and secure and LOVED every time he sees it. Get in the damn pictures!!"
 
And so, I share a few of me and my kiddos (and one with my marvelous husband, the photo bomber.)  I could point out all the things I don't like.  Instead,  I will say that I love my kiddos and am glad I have these pictures!

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!

Sophia Senior Pictures, Boulder

The thing I remember the most about Sophia's session was walking around chatting and laughing! This girl is going places, she is just so busy with everything! And I bet she does everything with that beautiful smile of hers! I love this one!  Her hair!  It is just gorgeous! I love that whatever pose I put her in, she looked so amazing!   I love all these colors, they were absolutely beautiful! I mentioned that she could get into the water if she wanted and the next thing I know she is sitting in the water!  It was so awesome! I would have suggested she get her hair wet, but we still had another location to get to! I love these in the field so much!   Chautuaqua  is always a magical place! And then the sun came out!  We were out of the field at this point and when the sun came out, Sophia and I ran back and did some more pictures!  I was so excited! Sophia has been seeing rainbows everywhere and at the end of our session, this wonderful ra...

Evan Senior Pictures, Golden

Evan really wanted to do pictures in an aspen grove and I was really worried all the leaves would be gone, and most of them were. But there were enough to make it look good. And the grasses! Oh my they were so amazing! I absolutely love the blue with all the fall colors!   I love this one! I love how Evan did his hair different at the 2nd location!  I always wish there was more time to do such things on sessions! I wasn't sure we were going to go to a nearby park, I am so glad we did!  It is an amazing park!  And we saw the most amazing sunset!     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
