Finley and Friends

 These girls! What fun they were! And the energy they all have! I am in awe how they can contain it all! This was Finley's 14 birthday and her parents wanted to do a celebratory photo session for that and because they will all be freshman next year. The last time I saw Finley, she was a baby, so her being 14 was a shock! I loved being able to document this time in their lives because everything is about to change. High School will just be this whole new grand adventure into adulthood and who they are now is going to blossom into something else. It truly is a wonderful time!



I love this!  It is amazing to have so many friends who love you so much!


I adore this!  All the phones!  They just cracked me up!





These were so much fun! And let me tell you, I have done this with smaller groups and they haven’t been as in sync as this group.  They have were fantastic!












The light was so amazing! It’s like butter!  I absolutely love this spot at Hudson Gardens in the evening!

I don’t really know what they were doing—just a chaotic frenzy of movement and laughter tumbling through the sunlight. It was wild, unfiltered joy. When you’ve stepped beyond childhood and catch a glimpse of it unfolding in front of you, it feels both nostalgic and strangely unfamiliar, like remembering a dream you didn’t know you missed.  And yet it is so familiar, you wish you could go back there and be that person that still had so much in front of them.  Just for a little while.  To remember what being in a sun beam was really like.

I love this one so much!  Thank you Stacey for having me photograph this amazing time in Finley’s life!

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...
