Boulder Senior Pictures, Liam

I have known this kid for years and years! He and my son were friends in elementary school and I have been so lucky to get to know him and his family! Liam is such an incredible gymnast; he just amazes me with what he can do - like how can he do that?? If I could put memes here, there would be one of a jaw on the floor. We had to reschedule his session twice! The first time I had been exposed to covid and the second time it poured rain, which we couldn't even be mad at because we needed it so bad! We were so lucky this day, it was beautiful in the beginning and as we started to leave the 1st location, it started to rain. I was a little worried that our next stop it would be raining too, but luckily it was moody clouds and a bit sunny – which made for some amazing skies all around the mountains! It was so amazing!

One of the things I love about Boulder Falls is all the rocks!  So many rocks with tons of character!  

This is really why we were there!  The falls!  They are just amazing!  I am always so paranoid here and telling people don't go too far, be careful, crawl on all fours, etc... and as I am saying all this there are people - PEOPLE!  swimming in the water like it's no big deal that so much water is pouring over the edge with such force!  I really wasn't too worried about Liam because he is so athletic, he just made climbing all over the rocks look easy!  



The character in these rocks!  So amazing!


Almost all of Liam's family came, his brother lives in New York and he couldn't make it, not sure why... but the rest were all there!  I love it when it is a whole family event!  It was fantastic because one of his siblings was taking pictures the whole time (be still my beating heart!) and they got some fantastic images of the mountains and their sister too!  I wish I had had more time to play around with them!
                   Max with their camera!  It is awesome when young ones get to explore and be artistic!

I was a little worried about this, Liam was having back surgery shortly after our session, but he wanted to do it.  (He has had back surgery and it went well and he is at home healing!)



He has such a great smile!  



We were done... and then I saw this light... I am so lucky Liam still had a few more pictures in him!


Sibling love! I love this one!  These kids are all so fantastic, I feel like so much of my life is more enriched by what they have all done and are doing!

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! I absolutely love this shirt!  It is so awesome!

Alex, Senior Pictures

  When I talked to Alex's mom, she said he really didn't want to do pictures and she thought the best thing to do was to do family pictures and then sneak some senior pictures in.  I don't usually do that, but I figured that she knew how he would be the most comfortable and what would be the most successful.    I am so glad that we did it this way, she was definitely right!  I hope Alex at least had a decent time, but I could tell that he was not really into it - maybe if I'd had another hour with him....  just kidding, I think that would have made him super anxious!  I just hope in the future he keeps allowing himself to be photographed for those he loves.  Because even though he didn't want to do it, he did a great job and didn't complain at all.                                                 ...

Cecilia, Andrew and their adorable children. Oh and a few alpacas. Franktown, Co

Photographing with alpacas has been sooooo much fun! They are just adorable, sweet and have the cutest faces! And this family made it so much more enjoyable! These kids are downright adorable! And full of such personality - I was in love!   These kids!  Their reactions to the alpacas were just adorable!  There's a video on instagram about it too, I encourage you to go check it out!  So cute! Those sweaters!  They were so cute!  Hopefully they were warm because it was cold that day!  And out in the field with all the snow was so much cooler!  But those kids were amazing leaving their jackets off while we took pictures!  I personally would have frozen and just fallen over without my jacket! I love LOVE this light!  If the kids hadn't been warmly bundled in a wagon, I would have thrown them in to the image too, but to make them get out in the cold was a little cruel.   For more information on High School Seniors, Portraits and Weddings...
