Colorado Springs/Castle Rock Family Photographer-----The Reising Family








Meet the Reising Family...B E A U T I F U L...inside & out. I can't say enough great things about this family. They were one of the many families who joined me in Castle Rock at the Barn for my Fall Mini-Sessions. We had so much fun & absolutely flawless weather---I was so happy!!! We got more than amazing pictures...too hard to even choose, but here are a few of them from the day!

Colorado Springs Family Photographer-----------------Amanda & Gregg Roderick







Meet Amanda & Gregg...oh & their dog, Cooter (spelling?). They usually have more natural or rather rural pictures taken, but they decided to go urban this time around. I'm sure it felt a bit un-natural at first, but they warmed up & we got some fun shots. It was so nice meeting you both---hope you love your pictures & had a great time at your session, you really made it so easy on me...so thanks! =)

Colorado Springs Children Photographer-------------The Jewett Grandchildren











THIS session was BY FAR one of my favorites to do...I mean look at them!!!=) First of all they look like they are straight from the cover of a "Children's Place" ad. I loved their coordinating plaids & solids, reds, greys, blacks, shoes, boots, head-bands, hats...the works. Too fun!!! I had 7 kiddos at this session ranging from 2yrs. old to 9 yrs. old. Whoah! It made for a lot of laughs (mainly for me). hee-hee. We went to Monument Valley Park & set up camp or at least it felt like it...thanks to 2 wonderful mommies who carried all my props & bribes the entire shoot was a success. Hope you ALL love the photos as much as I loved taking them!!!

Colorado Springs Family Photographer---------------The Keller Family







What a crazy session this ended up being---nasty winds, grey skys & even a light mist, but this family was amazing & we ALL made the very most of it!!! You wouldn't guess it from these photos, because we had a good time despite the unpredictable weather that afternoon. Mary Ann, her husband & son were in town visiting Grandma, Grandpa & uncle from Missouri...so they wanted to capture some sweet moments to remember their trip by. I think we were able to do JUST THAT. Hope you look me up next time you're here & we can deliver some nicer weather for you!!! =)

Colorado Springs Family & Children Photographer----------The McGinnis Family











Meet the McGinnis Family: Kevin, Lisa, Aiden, Quincy & Rowan. This sweet family is from Arizona & were vacationing in Colorado where they decided to have family portraits done...what a brilliant idea!!! Loved meeting them & hearing their story. Their 3 adorable sons were so sweet & compliant & photogenic...made my job VERY easy! Their next few stops included: Aspen, Colorado where they were planning on staying in a mountside chalet (not too shabby, eh?) & Durango, Colorado where they were of course taking the Durango/Silverton Train...what a fun family vacation!!! I hope you thoroughly enjoyed your visit McGinnis Family & most of all...I hope you LOVE every single photo from this shoot. I had a wonderful time with you & wish you many blessings in the year ahead!!!

Colorado Springs High School Senior Photographer-----------Palmer Ridge High School Senior: Christian








Meet High School Senior: Christian. I learned in a very short amount of time that Christian LOVES football, specifically the Raiders. I had a good time with the challenge of finding different ways to make this Senior male smile. Ha! Although, fortunately for his mother, he pulls off the whole tough guy image well...so the many serious shots that I captured still look amazing!!! =) We started off at Rock Ledge Ranch & found some amazing spots with fall foilage----there are some great advantages to waiting on your Senior Photos afterall. =) The next stop was Old Colorado City, which seemed to fit Christian's personality more...brick walls, back alleys & stooped steps. It was a good time overall & I hope Lisa (mom) is very pleased with the outcome of the images. I know I am.

Colorado Springs Wedding Photographer-----------------------Mr. & Mrs. Brink
















This Breckenridge Wedding was UNBELIEVABLE...not to mention PERFECT!!! The location was to die for with mountain ranges surrounding, aspen trees golden & a river running through. Did I mention the perfect weather??? 70 degrees & sunny!!! AMAZING!!! I had so much fun shooting this wedding...everyone involved made it so memorable & enjoyable. The entire wedding party was a blast...bride & groom more relaxed than you could imagine. We did everything from bycicle rides, to barefoot walks in the river, to parades down main-street to crazy props & pics in the photobooth at the reception!!! It was a whirl-twirl blur of fun!!! I loved every second of it & wish every wedding was this amazing!
To Steph & Adam.....congratulations on your wedding...I wish you many, many, many years of happy wedded bliss!!! You are an adorable-perfect-match & the love you have is undeniable. So happy for the both of you! Thank you for allowing me the honor of capturing your special day!!!
