Portrait Unveiling, Judge Wiley J. Daniel

I was so honored to photograph this event! My friend Monique painted this beautiful portrait of Judge Wiley J. Daniel and when she asked me if I could photograph the event I was over the moon. I had heard a CPR interview about him after he un-expectantly passed away. He was an amazing man and he did so much for Denver and the minority youth of Denver.

It has been such a long time since I have been in a room with so many happy people!  There was nothing I could do but smile!


This is Judge Daniel's wife and she was just a wonderful woman!  She was so proud of her husband and had some wonderful things to say about him.  You could just feel the love emanating from her and all her guests.



I was tearing up when they took the sheet off, the looks on his family’s faces were full of emotion.  It was very touching!














I wish I had known about this marvelous man before this event, he is truly inspiring!  

I am so proud of Monique and all she was able to do, she always creates magic in her art.  It was so great to see her being interviewed by CPR with this great accomplishment!




I love this one of Monique!  She is so talented and absolutely amazing!  She was able to paint this painting from photographs of Judge Daniel and everyone there was so amazed at how beautifully she captured his personality.

Isaak's Senior Pictures, Boulder

 Isaak was so easygoing and genuinely amazing to be around!  He wanted his senior pictures at sunset in Boulder, which is always a hit or a miss. There’s just something about that golden light hitting the rocks and mountains that makes everything feel magical. The only catch? Everyone else thinks so too. I picked this spot years ago because hardly anyone goes there. But this time, when we showed up, it was packed ! I couldn’t believe it. I was like, really?? Why here, today of all days? As it turns out, a sweet group of friends was setting up for a surprise proposal right in the middle of our spot. I mean, adorable, but also, the timing!  But honestly, that’s one of the things I love about my job, something unexpected always happens. Whether it’s weather changes, running late, surprise events, or wardrobe hiccups, it's always a challenge! And every single time, it ends up being even better than what I planned. We wandered off a bit and found these incredible rocks off...

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!...

Bella Senior Pictures, Boulder

 I have been excited about doing Bella's Senior Pictures since she first came with her older brother Maason a few years ago.  I'll never forget how excited she was about his pictures.   I knew when it was Bella's turn it was going to be fantastic! Bella brought so much joy and energy to her session, I just love being around her!  Even though the park was packed full of people that day, we had a great time!  The water was especially breathtaking—it was so still, reflective, and colorful, adding this dreamy glow to Bella’s photos.  I love the water! I love how excited Bella was to skip!  It was adorable! I love this one! I love these with her cheerleading stuff!  Especially the jumping one!
