Denver Family Portraits, Julie and Bill


I have known these guys for years!  Our kids have been in plays together and I have photographed all three of them - and let me tell you they are talented super awesome kids!  And I love Julie their mom!  She is just the right amount of salty - she has me snickering all the time!  And she is a super fantastic makeup artist.   She has been doing makeup for our kids plays and she always makes it all look so easy.  And then I do it and it looks like a step up from toddler status...  Anyway, it was an absolute joy to work with them on something besides plays (and get to know their dad more too)!  I love how mellow and laid back Julie and Bill are.  And then their kids are so over the top!  It is fantastic!

We were super lucky!  We did their pictures at Cheeseman Park on a day that was 96 degrees.  But it didn't feel that hot in the shade and on that lush grass! So grateful!  I was worried they would melt like candles!
 I love this one!
 What a fun family!
 I love this one too!
 Julie was so cute!  She asked if we could do this photo and I loved the idea!  It is so how we all are! 

 Liam is so good with his sisters!  He has to be one of the best teenage boy brothers ever!




  Can you imagine what it is like to be around these guys all the time??  It's not wonder their parents are so mellow, someone has to tip the scales!

 I love LOVE these three as superheros!  I am thinking there should be a movie with them as SUPER superheros!  They would rock that movie!


I am doing a video for my business and we talked about who to video me photographing and these guys were my first choice for a family!  I knew I had to find a family that could handle having their picture taken and have videographers running around too.  I knew that these 3 could do that!  I am so grateful they said yes!
We were waiting for the videographers to set something up, so we had some extra time and this is     what they came up with to do!

 This is Deb!  (Here is Deb's website to her amazing photography - http://www.debcochraneimages.com/.  Some day I am going to own one of her beautiful metal prints!)  And she is awesome!  She is from Australia and I asked if she could do a voice over for me.  She declined.  She also declined to make me a shadowy figure and disguise my voice like they do in crime videos.  I was kind of hoping for something 007 in my video...  I sure hope they don't edit out my flips, kicks and karate moves as I was "shooting."
That's Trish (and here is her website - http://www.storiesnotforgotten.com/) with the microphone - she rocks too!  She actually put a microphone on me in case I said something profound and life changing - I think she too thinks my video is less about crime fighting and more about the photography... I may need to be more clear on how cool I want to appear to be...
 I really am so thankful that these two are the ones doing my video.  They are very intuitive and they really do get that it is about the photography and not the crime fighting - as it should be.  I was so nervous about doing it that day and they made me feel comfortable and like I could breath again!  They are incredibly wonderful and kind.  I had a wonderful time and I didn't even really notice them!

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...
