Family Photos in Littleton

This Saturday I had a great time taking photographs of this lovely family in Littleton. They have two gorgeous little boys, and I had lots of fun following them around in the backyard and in the beautiful open space near their house.

Here's the littlest one - he has seriously amazing eyes

here they are in color - told you they're gorgeous!

Big brother kept giving me the most adorable crinkle-nose grin. I couldn't resist putting one up here.

He also has beautiful eyes...

Very cool field near their house. I love the tall grass.

Mommy and babyI love the look he's giving his brother here

here they are together - I really loved this field by their house.
Awww, big-brother hugs!
Thanks for letting me spend the afternoon with you beautiful family!

Natalie and Thad's Engagement Session

This Thursday I met up with Natalie and Thad, whose wedding I'm photographing this August. We met up at Coors Field to start with, because the two of them are big Rockies fans.
They were willing to get a little adventurous on Blake Street... I knew we'd have a good session after they were game for this pose!Aren't they a beautiful couple?We headed over to Riverfront Park for a few shots. One of my favorite things about photographing weddings and engagement sessions (and family sessions too, actually) is seeing how much these people love each other. It just makes me happy. I don't always notice these sweet little looks while I'm shooting away, but then I get home and open up a gem like this one. *Sigh* I love my job!Thad has a great eye! He spotted this awesome little spot of white water along the Platte - it was a perfect spot for photos. They're gorgeous together.


This was my favorite from the whole day, I think. It was also one of the very last shots! I think Natalie looks like an old-Hollywood movie star - can't wait to see her as a bride!!

Beth and Justin's Engagement Session

Yesterday I went to Riverfront Park with Justin and Beth for their e-session. They're getting married in July, and after spending an hour or so with them in front of my camera, I am even more excited to shoot their wedding. Seriously, the camera loves these two.

We started at the Millenium bridge. I love the graphic lines it brings to a picture.



Denver positively glows at this time of day.

I am a little in love with blurry train tracks. It's kind of an obsession.

Mmmm...the light through the Aspen trees - I love Colorado in May!

A little bit of flare...

Did I mention that the camera loves her? Because it really, really does.

What you get when you ask a couple to pretend they're in a perfume ad. I think they nailed it...

The Platte River at sunset

I loved the way this looked - like their own private ballroom.

Thanks Beth and Justin! Can't wait until July!

Evergreen family photos

Last Friday I went to Evergreen to photograph this lovely family. Here are a few of my favorite shots so far.



I love the way light looks coming through pine trees

This little darling is wearing her mother's christening dress. I love the back of the bonnet here.

For some reason, this was one of my favorite shots. I think I like the way the light is reflecting off her hair.

Mommy and Daddy kisses...

The girls' grandmother was out for Mother's Day. Hmmm...family resemblance?

Aren't they a beautiful couple?

Family Photos

I had the pleasure of taking family photos for a family I've known for a while now - we met in Child birth class about five years ago. Amazing how much everyone has grown!!

Here are a few of my favorites from the session:


The cherry blossoms in Denver are in full bloom - and make for a great photo backdrop

Aren't her eyes incredible?

We did some more traditional family shots as well, but I love the looks you get on the kids' faces when you do a pose like this. You can't ask for more natural smiles.

Something about this one I just loved - not sure why. Maybe it's because it looks like she's setting out for an adventure, all on her own.

Thanks for letting me photograph your beautiful family - it was truly a pleasure!
