Colorado Springs Children/Family Photographer---The Stamp Family










Thank you Stamp Family for the honor of taking your fall family pictures!!! What a joy it was to observe the interaction between two brothers & a sister; they have a great relationship & play so well with one another! I love the individual headshots I was able to capture of each of the kids---such personality; especially that 3 yr. old, Julia!!! =) The colors of the leaves against the crisp blue Colorado sky were unbelievable that day! It's so exciting & inspiring as a photographer when the weather and lighting decide to cooperate for a photoshoot. I hope you all love your photos!!! Many blessings on your journey ahead as you venture to Tanzania.

Blessings,
Courtney

Colorado Springs Children Photographer---Sweet Sisters










Sugar & Spice & everything Nice...are what little girls are made of!!! That was certainly true with these two girls!!! I was able to photograph sisters, Autumn, age:5 & Alayna, age:3 on Sunday in Old Colorado City. What a joy they were...& the fall leaves down in that area were AMAZING as you can see from the photos. I just adored their giggles & grins...not to mention their little "fashionista" coordinating scarves. I swear I felt like I was photographing a GAP commerical; too-too cute for words! Thanks again Roxanna...I had a blast with your girls & hope you LOVE their photos as much as I do!!! =)

Blessings,
Courtney

Colorado Springs Family Photographer---The Momotyuk Family







On a chilly fall Sunday late in the afternoon I met up with the Momotyuk Family for some fun family pictures. This wonderfully sweet family is from the Ukraine--I had the privilege of working with Valentina at Compassion International about 7 years ago & that's how I met her and her precious family. During this time of working with her I learned of a tragic car accident that would forever change their lives---on July 28th, 2003. Their son Erik (now 15)was ejected from the vehicle & trapped underneath it. Due to the severity of his injuries he has gone through 38 surgeries up to date & still faces many more!!! They have undergone more than I could ever imagine & yet their faith is so very, very strong! Such a testimony to God's sovereignty & their obedience to trust in him. It was sooo neat to see Erik again & hear of his current accomplishments...he is freshman in High School at Liberty, plays the piano & just received his driver's permit. God's mercy abounds & this family is living proof of it. I was so blessed to take their pictures & LOVED spending time with them. May God continue to heal, bless & show his unconditional love to your family!!!

Many Blessings,
Courtney
