Ian Senior Pictures

 There were so many surprising things about Ian and honestly I wasn’t really surprised. There is just something about him that I knew he was amazing. It was in the way in he carries himself and how he has this knowing twinkle in his eye. I just knew he was so incredibly intelligent and kind. And then we talked and I was like, yeah he really is that awesome. (I am cheating a little on all this knowing because I photographed his sister’s Senior Pictures a few years ago and I was just as enamored with her! They are just great, awesome beings!)





I always tell my seniors if you like something tell me and we will do pictures there, and Ian definitely did that!  I love it when they speak up!  I’m like way to voice what you want!




In the beginning, he told me he wanted smiling and non-smiling pictures.  And again – way to go!  I want whoever I am photographing to get what they want and I know that can be hard to know what you want when this is the first time taking Senior Pictures.  So I am really excited when Seniors can articulate what they want!  Ian had no problems doing that!







Here he is with Liz!  How I miss her!

I was so excited about these!  He really wanted to do Wax Trax and I suggested Twist and Shout because Wax Trax can be so dark.  But he insisted on Wax Trax.  I called them and they said yes!  I am so glad we did!  I used to spend hours and hours in this store and it was so incredibly great to go back!





I love these with Liz!  So great to have both of these two in front of my camera!

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...

Brayden, Golden, Co.

 When Brayden said he wanted to do his senior pictures at Red Rocks, I was totally on board, Red Rocks is always amazing and absolutely beautiful! The only problem was the day we were doing them there was a concert.  I was very nervous! I’ve done sessions there before when a concert was happening that night, and it just a very adventurous thing to do. There are so many cars!  And people.  They are everywhere!  I didn’t even know who was performing that night, but that doesn't mean much...  I was crossing my fingers that it would all work out. And thankfully it did! It was perfect. There weren’t many people around until the doors opened, and that gave us such an amazing window to get some incredible shots. These are probably some of the greatest images I have taken at the tunnel! It was very exciting! We were lucky to be blessed with some beautiful deer! You can see all the cars starting to show up!  I was going to take them out, but then I was...

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!...
