Hilary & Taylor: An October Proposal

I could not be more honored to be apart of Hilary and Taylor's beyond cute proposal!  Hilary had already scheduled her annual "Christmas Card" photo session with me when Taylor called and told me that he wanted to propose to Hilary during our session.  Hilary kept making things complicated by changing the date of the photos more than once, but Taylor thought of everything -- having their puppy be apart of it, the sign and the cute saying on the sign, the plot to get Hilary away for a minute so that he could put the sign around Oly's neck, everything.  All I did was help make the sign (with the help of a friend ... thanks Molly!) and showed up to capture the moment.  After we took a couple of photos like normal, I asked Hilary if it would be alright I took a couple of "head shots" of her because "I've recently had an inquiry for business head shots and I don't have very many to show this potential client".  Of course she agreed so I pulled Hilary away to take her business picture (I've included it below).  Taylor and Brandon pretended to be playing with Oly when really they were getting out the sign, making sure the ring was ready to go, etc.  After a couple of minutes, Hilary and I walked around the tree to see Taylor and Oly standing there waiting for her.  Needless to say, what came next was magical.  I was so unbelievably blessed to be apart of this.  Wishing Hilary and Taylor all the best as they enjoy their engagement (they are celebrating in Thailand right now!) and while they plan their wedding.  What a special time in their lives! photocrati gallery

 

Megan's Senior Portraits - Class of 2016

Congratulations to this darling senior!  It was so fun to photograph Megan ... what an amazing, fun, and gorgeous girl.  We took these at Cheeseman Park on a beautiful morning a couple of weeks ago ... the lighting, the flowers, the greenery, and that smile could not have been any more perfect.  I wish you all the best finishing up your senior year! photocrati gallery

Alex Morrision Real Estate

A couple of months ago I had the privilege to photograph this beautiful lady's head shots.  Alex recently received her real estate license, and has joined SPX Real Estate.  Whether you are looking to buy your first home, move into a larger home, or sell your current home, Alex is your girl! You can get in touch with her and find more information about her through her website.

Furthermore, many of my clients do not know that I provide head shots so if you are wanting to update your current headshot for your website, business card, or just to have a professional photo of yourself, let me know!

Kayla & Cameron - Denver Engagement

You might remember when my sister got engaged last December ... If you don't, you can read about and see her engagement here. Well, we got around to taking their engagement photos in June, and since we FINALLY got their Save the Dates sent out this week, I can finally post their gorgeous pictures!  Their pictures turned out just darling, but I am a little bias. :)

Here are some of my favorites from that beautiful June day!

Even though we didn't end up using these for the Save the Dates, we took a handful of "Save-the-Date" pictures that I thought turned out cute so I just had to share!

Erin & Michael's Gorgeous Crested Butte Wedding!

Where to begin?  I was so, so blessed to be apart of this extraordinarily perfect wedding.  From the location, to the people, to the details, to the lawn games, to the celebration and the dancing ... simply perfect. Did I mention the location?!  This wedding was on top of Crested Butte Mountain and was GORGEOUS! The rain held out, the sun was shining, and the stunning mountain peaks in the background were breathtaking.

The Brown Family - A Backyard Portrait Session

This past winter, I donated a family portrait package to Greenwood Elementary School's silent auction.  The mom of the girls I babysit for helps put it on every year, and I always love an opportunity to support a good cause.  All of the money earned went directly to the school, which as a teacher myself, I am in HUGE support of that no matter what!  I am looking forward to continuing to do this for years to come, especially because it allows me to meet families I may never have otherwise gotten to meet!  It was SO much fun photographing the darling Brown family!  Aren't these boys just as cute as can be?!  They were SUCH troopers, and made my job a piece of cake!  I was so impressed with their incredible attitudes, fun personalities, and charming smiles!  Not to mention, how awesome is their yard?!  Yes, you got that right ... we did these photos at their house!  Can you say BEAUTIFUL!?  It was such a pleasure to meet this family ... Thank you SO much for buying my auction item! photocrati gallery

Michael & Erin - Engagement - Cheeseman Park

Say hello to the soon to be Mr. & Mrs. Clayton!  Congrats to Michael and Erin who got engaged this holiday season!  Michael and Erin met in college at Western State and they are getting married this July on top of the Red Lady ski lift on Mt. Crested Butte.  I am so excited and honored to be the one who gets to capture so many memories for this couple!  Even on a freezing cold, snowy day, it warms your heart to be around two people who are so obviously in love and perfect for each other!  Thank you Erin and Michael for braving the 12 degree weather with me ... I hope your fingers have finally warmed up! photocrati gallery

Congratulations to Chad & Cortney!

Well this post is a little late, but better late than never, right?  As I lay around after just getting my tonsils removed, I am finally finding some time to catch up on my blog posts!  I have a lot to catch up on including my fun Holiday mini sessions that happened a few weeks ago as well as some fun adventures I have been on recently, which I will blog about come later today or sometime this week so be sure to check back later! Anyways, in the beginning of November, Brandon and I went to California to celebrate his grandparents 65th anniversary!  How awesome is that?!  While we were there, Brandon's cousin, Chad, and cousin in-law, Cortney, announced that they were pregnant with their first baby, and asked if I would take a few pictures of them for their announcement.  The photos turned out super cute, and the announcement turned out even more cute!  After a lot of communication, editing, and revising, Cortney and I finally finished the movie poster announcement that you see below.  Super cute, right?!  Congratulations to Chad and Cortney ... I am so, so happy for you!  Thank you so much for letting me be apart of all this!

And here is the fun movie poster announcement we created!  I especially love how the puppies were included in it :)  So cute!
