Eagle Ridge High School, Brighton, Co Senior Pictures, Makaela

This is a very hard post to write.  This is my little girl and she is going to be a High School Senior this year.  I've already done this once with her older brother, so I didn't think it would be so hard.  But it has been harder than I thought.  I don't think she is old enough to be a Senior...
 
We have talked about doing her pictures for a while, she really wanted to do some cosplay pictures.  She wanted to cosplay as a Hetalia character; Sealand if anyone knows who that is.  We were going to be near Salt Lake City and I thought the Great Salt Lake would be a great place to do some of the pictures.  When we arrived, we went to the Great Saltair and the owner was so amazingly nice and told us where to go and what to do and lent us this marvelous umbrella.  She was so gracious and wonderful.  I really appreciated her generosity!
We plan on doing more pictures somewhere else, but I thought I would do some ones that weren't cosplay while we were there.  Here is a sneak peak.

 I love these on the salty beach!  It was such an amazing beach!


 I am a bit jealous of Salt Lake City photographers!  The water here is amazing!  It is so glassy and smooth!  I could have stayed all evening and just photographed the water.
 
 Here are some of her cosplaying as Sealand.
Here are some of the 'extras' I took as we walked out there.


 They were looking at the funky brine shrimp that they hadn't noticed until I said something was hitting my feet.  They were both disgustedly fascinated.  But not disgusted enough to get out of the water.




 This is the umbrella that I love so much!

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...

Grace Senior Pictures, Boulder Co

  Sometimes the best things are worth the wait—and Grace’s senior session was definitely one of those moments. After rescheduling thanks to Colorado’s unpredictable rain (seriously, the rain wasn’t acting the way it’s supposed to!), we finally landed the most beautiful day . There was just the right amount of sparkle in the air—it was perfect. Grace is such a delightfully beautiful young lady, inside and out. Her energy is gentle but radiant, and from the moment she showed up, she was so excited to be in front of the camera. That kind of enthusiasm? It’s contagious—and honestly, I was just as excited as she was! We had a great time exploring by the creek, Chautauqua and the top of Flagstaff   Mountain and soaking in that golden light, and creating portraits that felt so her. And then…I brought out the mylar. 😄 I had this fun, artsy idea to play with reflections and light using sheets of mylar—something a little different, a little sparkly, and totally dreamy. Turns out...
