Denver Senior Pictures, Asher

I was so excited to be doing my niece's Senior Pictures! She came here all the way from California and I was hoping to make it the best time ever! She didn't really have an idea what she wanted to do, so I was trying to come up with all these fun things to do... and you would think that would be exciting to help her figure it out, but it was just all this added pressure. What if everything I came up with was lame?? And I didn't really want to be the lame aunt... So in my panic, I covered her in paint powder and told her to smile.





I love these, they were so messy and so much fun!
Obviously, these were taken before the paint powder incident. I love this spot and the colors!  And every time I am here it is always so different.





I think one of the hardest things about photographing teens is knowing when or how much to make them smile.  Some teens are just smiley, but when they're not, there's a thin line of having them smile.  Moms always love the smiling ones, so I have to get those... When you're photographing a family member that line is even thinner on the smiling thing and to be honest a little scary!  Because they can turn off and be irritated a lot quicker than normal.  And personally, I love non-smiling pictures, but the moms... they are always expecting some smiling ones...

And I really love this one! So finger's crossed her mom likes this one too!




I love this mural!  






Even after all the paint powder, Asher was still good with doing some fun impromptu pictures at Meow Wolf!  It was so much fun!

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...
