Denver, CO LGBTQ+ Wedding Photographer - City of Cuernavaca Park

This wedding day was perfect. We honestly has no idea if an October wedding in Denver would mean it would be snowing. Luckily, no snow, but we did get a pretty intense downpour 20 minutes or so after I arrived. We had enough time to get some photos of these two on their bikes before the rain came, then afterwards, an amazing double rainbow appeared and this couple was so happy about “how perfectly gay this is!!” I loved seeing all of their family members who loved them the most to be there to support their self solemnization in Denver.

This wedding was so emotional for good reason! What an amazing city we live in where love can be seen as love no matter who it it is. I was so happy that these two chose me to witness and document their special day.

It was a treat to assist Eleanor for Candice and Angela’s wedding in Boulder. The weather was gorgeous, despite the drizzle we got during the ceremony, the venues were breathtaking at the top of a mountain and at the St. Julien in Boulder. Candice and Angela were so kind, joyful and gracious throughout their day. They gave such nice toasts/speeches before dinner, made sure to hug and thank each and every guest who attended and made sure to enjoy their day! Witnessing their love was so special.

Spiritual Branding Photoshoot Denver, Colorado

Spiritual Photographer - Denver, CO

Sherri contacted me letting me know that she was changing career paths, changing her home base and her life! She told me about the importance of spiritual connection in her business and her life. She told me that the theme of her spiritual work and business is “your heart is safe in my hands.” We went to clear creek in Golden where Sherri used her singing chakra bowl to drop into a meditation and it was beautiful. From there, we walked around in the creek and chatted about her business. Her peaceful energy and confidence in herself was inspiring to witness. I love being able to help empower women in their lives and in their work.

Best Hikes near Denver - Saint Mary's Glacier Hike, Colorado

Best Hikes near Denver - Saint Mary's Glacier Hike, Colorado

Saint Mary’s Glacier is an easy 2.4 mile round trip hike with about 1,030 ft of elevation gain. It’s in Idaho Springs and about 45 minutes from Downtown Denver. Saint Mary’s has a glacier that has snow year round. Sometimes people will be skiing in August like they were when I last visited! There is a $5 cash fee to park in the lot and the views are worth any payment. The colors from the wildflowers in the summer are so lush. The lake is cold, but good for cliff jumping and swimming. There is a stream of water from the snowmelt near the glacier with lots of nice places to sit and enjoy the views. I love coming to this place to hike in different seasons throughout the year. This is a great hike to take visitors from out of town for beautiful views in a short distance. The drive up to the parking lot is gorgeous too!

Taylor and Keith have a new human family member!! Miko is so precious and perfect. He was an angel for these photos. These photos were the perfect opportunity to get some new family images in their new home as well! The natural light here is incredible. Taylor and Keith are such hard working, wonderful people who are already amazing parents. I’m so grateful to know them both and I was honored to be taking these photos for them. The dogs and cats also adore the new family member.

Tori offers her spiritual guidance with oracle readings at several different shops, boutiques and markets on certain days each month. This shoot is from Local Goods Colorado in Lafayette, CO. Her next pop-up will be at Electric Cherry Shop & Studios in Arvada on Sept. 4th 12-3pm.

These personal branding photos are great marketing tools for Tori’s website and social media accounts where she can show clients what an experience working with her looks like.

Tori always has a cozy space for clients to have readings done. She helps her clients set intentions and gain clarity in certain areas of their lives with her readings and interpretations. Tori’s calm energy is so inviting and welcoming. I have always felt more at peace and clear with my day after a reading with Tori.

Her oracle deck is also for sale for personal use on her website: Oracle Deck

Denver Couples Photographer - Urban Engagement Inspiration

When my cousin, Val texted me asking to take engagement photos for her and her fiance, I was so excited. I got to make a special trip home to Illinois to see them and spend the afternoon in downtown Chicago. This day was particularly hectic because one of our other many cousin’s was having hr bridal shower that day. We had lunch at Cabra in Chicago, took advantage of the rooftop pool views before heading to the suburbs for the bridal shower. We stayed there for an hour or two, then we went back downtown to meet Theron and their dog, Baxter at our next location. We found a busy beach spot near Hyde Park but it was perfect for some champagne pop photos and lake views.

Even though it was a long day, it was the best thing to get to know Theron for a few hours and reconnect with my cousin Val. We hadn’t spent this much time together since I was in high school or college! These two are an amazing couple with such ambitious and successful lives already. I am so excited for their wedding next year and to support them from afar as they continue to grow together. Documenting their love and the beginning of this next step for them was so rewarding for me to witness.

Haley and Tinley- my favorite mom and daughter to take photos for. I love to see how much they both grow each time we have a session. We always visit a few locations and try to be sure at least one has a water feature for Tinley since she loves water. This time, we visited some forest preserves and Haley’s new home for this new season of her life. Haley’s commitment to making her own and Tinley’s days as fun as possible is so inspirational. She makes sure to treat themselves to their favorite meals and go to their favorite places whenever Haley isn’t working.

Urban Maternity Photo Inspiration - Denver CO photographer

It was such a perfect evening at the Lincoln Park Boardwalk in Chicago. I love sessions where I’m able to walk around with friends and clients and hear about their lives while making images of them in amazing golden hour light! Brittany and Kyle’s kindness and love for each other will help make them such great parents. I was so happy I was able to be in Chicago to take photos for them recently and document the beginning of their next big adventure.

Taylor’s beautiful maternity session. Taylor and I have done countless photoshoots together of her family and dogs. All of the photos in the past were out in natural light and in mountain areas. So for these photos, Taylor wanted a more styled, clean look to help accentuate her features and bring out her confidence and beauty. As I’ve begun to learn from friends and clients who are having children, the process of the body changing so drastically can be a huge challenge to embrace. It was important to me that Taylor felt confident in herself with these photos. It can be hard to feel like yourself when your body or your abilities changes. I’m learning more everyday about the importance of finding confidence internally as well as externally. There are so many factors to this, but I know that the more anyone is able to love themselves fully and genuinely, the easier life gets <3 I was honored to be a part of this for Taylor and in helping her feel like her best self in these photos.

Denver, CO Headshot Photos

Denver, CO Indoor Headshot Inspiration - McKinley

I showed up at McKinley's doorstep to her holding a miniature Australian Shepherd in her arm and holding back a larger dog, saying "Annah!!! Hi! Do you like dogs?" haha

From the moment I met her, she was so energetic and welcoming. It felt like we'd been friends for years! McKinley has such a warm personality. She is a hardworking woman who knows her values and I admire her so much for that. I aim to make photo sessions as empowering as they can be. It’s important to feel confident in your body and know your worth. Even if the photos are for updated career headshots, it’s important for that confidence to come through.

. McKinley is indigenous and advocates for the rights of women as well as indigenous people at protests and rallies when she has free time. After spending a little time with McKinley for these photos, I knew we would see each other again as friends soon. I’m so grateful for our connection. I’m inspired by McKinley’s success in her career and even more, I’m inspired by her beliefs and the strong voice she uses to speak them.

This elopement at Chautauqua in Boulder, CO was beautiful. We caught a break from the cold February weather and the sun came out for a 50, 60 degree day! It was perfect. We had a little ceremony in the open area at the bottom on Chautauqua then drove up Flagstaff to take photos at some lookout points. Lauren and Ken were giddy with excitement the entire time. Telling each other “I love you” at any chance they got, and really taking the day in. I hardly even needed to prompt them for poses! I loved this winter elopement. It was a little more quiet than usual in Boulder this day, and it was magical.

Chinns Lake Colorado

Chinns Lake Colorado

This lake is beautiful and can be accessed by car or by hiking up. If driving up, you definitely need a higher lifted vehicle and a ton of confidence in your driving. The road is as narrow as a hiking trail and there is a chance you’ll see another car and have to try to squeeze past them on the cliff side. Parking is also limited at the top. Although I drove up this trail, I would recommend hiking the 2 or 3 miles for peace of mind. There are several camping spots at the top around the lake. Gorgeous views, open sky and a cool dilapidated cabin in the water.
