Holly and her magical dress

 Holly wanted to do pictures for her birthday, which I was like of course you should/would/could want that - EVERYONE should do this! It is liberating and amazing! Yes, I have done it. But just the one time. And I think I should do it more often! I am so thankful to Holly for wanting to do this! And what a bad ass she is! On top of being a total bad ass, she rented a designer dress and looked AMAZING!





I absolutely loved everything about this session!  Holly is so confident and marvelous!  Even on one of her bad days, she has a secureness that is inspirational!  Her beliefs and general compass are so secure.  I love that for her!  I would love that every woman could feel this way.  They deserve it!








And yup, that skateboarder biffed it.  And no, I didn’t feel bad.  I had to photoshop him out of so many photos because he was so aware of where I was and kept inserting himself in the photo.  I don’t want him to have broken a bone, but it would have been nice if he slipped me $50 to pay for his photoshop removal.  Whatever his reasons, he did not belong in these photos.  They weren’t about him.  I kept moving so that he could skate and not be in the photo, but that wasn’t good enough for him.  He just had to be in the photos. And like I said, it wasn’t about him.

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...
