Boulder, CO Creative Headshot Photographer for Artists and Dancers

Boulder, CO Creative Headshot Photographer for Artists and Dancers

Kayla’s emotion in dance was beautiful to witness. Kayla is such a kind person. She expressed such vulnerability in her willingness to dance for me after we only met a few minutes earlier. I’ve been photographing families and weddings in Boulder as of lately and was so excited to document Kayla dancing for a change. This dance photoshoot gave me so much freedom in my images and style. Instead of me being the one to direct the subject, Kayla put some music on and did all improvisation dance. Improvisation is beautiful. Each time is different and I loved witnessing this one of a kind performance out in nature.

Headshot Photographer - Boulder, CO

I loved the variety that we had to work with in Sarah’s gorgeous home. We took photos for about 25 minutes and chatted our way through it all, getting to know each other.

I love taking photos of people, being able to meet them and make a new friend in the process! Photos are so much more than they seem. They tell a story and preserve that person’s legacy. Even with professional images for an online presence, these photos showcase Sarah’s lovely personality and professionality.

December 2019 - Illinois

I love December. I love anticipating snow, and unusual 57 degree days in Chicago! I love being with my family and dog and friends. Take a look at my photos from the past few weeks in Illinois. And keep scrolling to see what drivers in Chicago do when they think I’m taking photos of them.

Family Photographer in Boulder Colorado

Family Photographer in Boulder Colorado

This Colorado in-home holiday photo shoot was so lovely. Taylor and Keith love their animals and needed all of them included in their holiday photos. After we spent a lot of time getting all the animals in one spot, they ended up settling on the couch where they love to be anyway. Taylor loves decorating, and their home is so cozy. These kinds of photos are so intimate and important. Your home is the place you make your own and the place that comes to life because of who is in it. I loved documenting their little family and home.

Rocky Mountain National Park - Winter Hike to Endovalley

Rocky Mountain National Park - Winter Hike to Endovalley

This hike was beautiful! I wanted to make it up to Chasm Falls, but a snowstorm stopped me. I parked at the Alluvial Fan picnic area, walked to Endovalley Picnic area and walked up Fall River Road. All the roads past Alluvial Fan Picnic area were closed. This hike is mostly pavement until you get to Fall River Road which is where the road turns to gravel and is an uphill hike from there on. Even though I didn’t see the falls, this was still a beautiful, quiet hike.

Eldora, CO Lost Lake Hike

Eldora, CO Lost Lake Hike

This hike was a perfect challenge with lots of hiking uphill and about 4.5 miles round trip. The hike goes through pine groves, past waterfalls and up to Lost Lake which has gorgeous views of the mountains in the distance and beautiful water.

I got to hike this trail with my childhood friend who came to Colorado for a weekend to visit and enjoy the mountains.

Granby, Colorado Adventure Wedding Photographer

Paige and Tyler's Granby Ranch Mountaintop Wedding was incredible. Everyone attending the wedding was able to take the ski lift up to the top of the mountain for the ceremony. The ceremony site overlooked the mountains and the views were so gorgeous. Paige and Tyler are so so kind and are a beautiful couple. They truly focused on their friends and family and each other the whole day. Their friends and family’s speeches and toasts made everyone cry and I felt so happy I was able to be a part of their day.

Denver Spiritual Event and Retreat Photographer - Puja Ceremony Photographer

Anupama and Bharat Vaidya run the school, Ayurved Sadhana. They hosted a ceremony for their 5 graduates from multiple programs and commenced with the Puja ceremony. Pujas are meant to spiritually celebrate an important event, like graduation. This event was full of color, people and spirituality. Documenting this event really made me feel a connection to the people who were there. I felt like I was able to re-focus some of my purpose of being a photographer. I’m there to observe with my heart and to connect with others.

Coot Lake, Boulder Fall Family Photo Session

This family’s Coot Lake, Boulder Family Photo Session was so pretty! I love this lake and area for walks and to enjoy the water below the mountains. We had plenty of sun and warmth for this session as we walked around the lake.

Kaia fell asleep on the drive over, so the best way we could get her to be awake and happy was to have this lollipop involved in the session.

Aleece and Jeff’s Boulder Creek wedding at WedgeWood was gorgeous!

I arrived and met the groomsmen to start taking photos with Mackenzie. This entire bridal party was hilarious. Typically, groups of people need prompting to look more natural and to relax a bit. These people were already there! They were cracking jokes nonstop and laughing, looking incredible! It was a challenge to reign them all in to take a photo of them looking at the camera with more serious faces. I would take this kind of challenge any day.

It started drizzling after the ceremony, so we took some quick group photos, but then there was a downpour with tons of thunder and lightning. No one was fazed- the cocktail hour moved under the tent where dinner would be and we ran out to take photos whenever the rain let up a little.

Boulder, CO High School Senior Photographer- Chautauqua

Re-posting one of my favorite high school senior photo sessions in Boulder!

Lilly's High School Senior Photoshoot at Chautauqua - Boulder, CO was gorgeous. We got there just before the sun was behind the mountains and we had the perfect amount of light. Lilly had never had professional photos taken before, so I did a lot of prompting and directing as I usually do to make people comfortable. Lilly is gorgeous and I loved this session.

Saint Mary's Glacier Hike - Idaho Springs, CO

Saint Mary's Glacier Hike in Idaho Springs, CO is a 1.5 mile loop. This trailhead was very crowded on a Saturday in September, but the spaciousness at the top of the glacier was great and not crowded. This trail has a gorgeous view of the lake and the glacier at the top. It snowed after I hiked back down to the car!!
