For a long while now I’ve been wanting to try out film again. The last time I played with film photography was back in high school (*cough, ahem, like 15 years ago) and back then it was all black and white. I learned how to use a camera using film, and not only that we […]

I got to photograph in one of my favorite spots this past weekend – 17 Mile House Farm Park! Not only did we have the perfect, most beautiful evening light but the most darling family to capture, too! I just loved the colors of the Fall that still remained and the Heyn family picked beautiful […]

We got to connect with the Coert family through our church with my husband, Abe, and Matt playing in band together. And Julie and I got to serve alongside each other in our children’s ministry. We have so loved getting to know their family better and we’ve discovered a shared love for board games (which […]

I haven’t gotten to see my friend Desiree since high school, so it was an extra pleasure to also meet her darling family! These guys have moved around like us, but made their way back to Castle Rock in recent years like ourselves. What a joy it was to reconnect and spend an evening with […]

I was so excited to be invited to Nicole’s amazing home to photograph their family and her home for her own website and blog (which are in the works!). Just wait until you see the gorgeous way she has styled and arranged her family’s home to make it a place of such comfort and beauty. […]

I was so excited when Cassidy asked me to capture their beautiful family again after we had taken some fall pictures last October.  I loved their fall portraits we took out at her family’s ranch in Kiowa, and I knew I’d love capturing them again in the beautiful Spring blossoms at Fly’n B Park! Cassidy […]

Well this post will be a lot shorter than my last one (my favorite images of 2017) because this post is a handful of bloopers from sessions this year! Every once in a while when I’m editing a session I find an image that automatically gets put in a folder for this post at the […]

There’s nothing like looking back at a year’s worth of your work, representative of so much – so many friendships made, so many sweet moments captured, and so many goals met! I had so much fun this week pouring through all my sessions starting way back in January through just a week ago. It was […]

We made our way back to the parking lot, through the Franktown fields and old farmhouse buildings–long standing vacant and quiet but beautiful in their history and age.  The breeze gently blew across the fields, warmed by the plentiful sunshine. I walked along with Tanya, and watched on as John chased his baby girl through […]

“Alright, ya’ll! I want you to look at each other and laugh!” I moved back as I gave my instructions to Art and Kathy. Without hesitation the two of them just started laughing, “Well that’s not hard for us!” they exclaimed with full smiles and laughs (just wait til you see!). In fact everyone was […]
