Boulder, CO Graduation Photographer - Chautauqua

Boulder, CO Graduation Photographer - Chautauqua

This Boulder, CO Chautauqua Graduation Photoshoot was beautiful. Lauren and Reece wanted to have a more personal session with just the two of them rather than their whole sorority group. We roamed around the base of the flat irons at Chautauqua for awhile before heading to the Norlin Quad. The weather was perfect and these two were so kind and personable. Graduation photos have become one of my favorite kinds of sessions. There’s so much to be celebrated and preserved and I love all the emotion.

Headshots at Chautauqua are always breathtaking. The flat irons and open field is such a gorgeous area. I took some photos for Jason and I was so thrilled that he wanted to include his dog. I was even more excited when he asked if I could take some photos of him with his girlfriend Tara who came along too!! Couples sessions make my heart so happy. A week or so after I sent the photos to Jason, he let me now how special the moments were between him and Tara that I captured. The little moments full of emotion between Jason and Tara give me so much hope for love and goodness in the world. This session was only about 30 minutes long but it was great.

Boulder Couples Photos with Dogs

Couples photos are so much better with all the dogs! It was raining all morning and we were expecting a foot of snow in Colorado later that afternoon. I met Leanna and Karl in Longmont and the dogs loved sniffing in the rain. We took lots of photos and used lots of hot dogs to bribe the dogs. We made it home right before the snow started and it was great. I loved taking these photos for Karl and Leanna and giving them these photos of them their little babies.

Ryann’s Women's Business Coach Headshot Session at Betasso Preserve - Boulder, CO was so beautiful. Ryann and I realized halfway through our session while chatting that we actually met each other about 2 years ago at an entrepreneur meeting in Boulder and we have a mutual friend! I love these sessions. We were able to spend time getting to know each other while getting natural photos for Ryann’s business.

Haley & Tinley’s outdoor family photoshoot was incredible as usual. I love being a part of documenting their lives a few times each year. These are the photos that are so important. Time moves so quickly and I love preserving ordinary moments like these for other people.

North Avenue Beach Sunrise Engagement Session

Fatima and Roy’s North Avenue Beach Sunrise Engagement Session was beautiful. We met right before sunrise and wandered around the beach area for a few hours. Fatima and Roy have been together almost as long as I’ve known Fatima- about 7 years. They are an amazing couple, I loved documenting this engagement session for them and especially at sunrise.

Boulder, CO Musician Photoshoot

AJ is a singer and guitarist in Boulder, Colorado. AJ wanted new photos to use for media, so we went to a forest preserve near Boulder Falls to look for a nice place. AJ sat in the middle of a dry, grassy field and played some songs. We explored the forest preserve and had beautiful views. AJ’s music is emotional and powerful. I love the emotion in each of their songs. AJ is awesome to spend time with. They are kind, attentive and so so talented. Check out their page on Instagram!

Amber is a mindset coach. She has her own business to help women grow and she was in need of new images for her posts and website. We went to Nederland and we found beautiful trees and color all over. These photos make Amber’s posts for her clients appealing and they represent herself and brand. My headshot sessions are meant to represent your true self. My style of photography is to look natural and most like yourself. This was effortless with Amber since she smiles all the time and has so much energy. We had about and hour to take photos. Afterwards, I sent a gallery to Amber with 156 final photos. The number of images I produce is always different for each session, but I typically overshoot and give you lots of options :)

Boulder Elopement Photographer - Lake Isabelle Sunrise Elopement

Taylor and Keith’s Lake Isabelle Sunrise Elopement - August 2020

Taylor and Keith decided to self solemnize in Colorado. Colorado is one of the few states that allows couples to get married without an officiant or witness. We had an early morning and met at the trail head around 4:45am. We hiked a few miles up to the lake and arrived just as the sun was coming up. The color on the mountains was changing every minute- it was gorgeous and only 45 degrees. We took lots of photos, drank some Prosecco and hiked back to the parking lot by 8am. Almost everyone we saw congratulated them as we hiked back. Taylor and Keith are such an inspirational couple. They are activists and always making their voices heard. I’m always in a great mood after I spend time with them. This morning adventure was one of my favorites so far, good company and amazing views!

Max and Linnea’s Golden, CO Mountain Wedding was incredible. Max and Linnea are such kind people. One of my favorite parts of photographing weddings is getting to know people I’ve met maybe once or twice. I get to hear their family and friends speak about their relationship and them as individuals. I get to hear the best things about them. It makes me so happy to hear people being told how much of an impact they’ve had because of wonderful people. Being around Max and Linnea for about 8 hours on their wedding day gave me a view into their lives. I got to meet all of their closest friends and family. I got to see them smile at each other every time someone congratulated them on their marriage- it was incredible. Cheers to this awesome couple and their new beginning!

Chelsea is a psychotherapist in Longmont Colorado. She wanted to have natural looking headshots at her office in Longmont, so we worked mostly with the beautiful light coming in from the window behind her desk. These headshot sessions are 30 minutes long and are perfect for getting some updated, professional photos for websites, businesses or branding.

Send me an email if you’re interested in having some new, natural headshots taken!

Sandhill Crane Migration in Kearney Nebraska

The Sandhill Crane migration in Kearney Nebraska is amazing. I have seen these Cranes in Northern Illinois a few times in past years, but only about 10 or 15 at most flying high near forest preserves. Recently, I saw hundreds at once in Nebraska. While driving down I-80, I saw tons of cranes in a cornfield. I pulled off to the next rest stop and hoped they would fly soon. Within 10 minutes, several flocks of at least 30 birds each, flew in and landed in the same cornfield. The birds all eventually started circling in the air before starting to fly away. It was incredible to hear their unique chirping in such great numbers and to see these beautiful birds swirling in the air like waves.

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.

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.
