Mini Session

Outdoor Fall Mini Sessions | South Mesa Trailhead, Boulder, CO

I recently saw a quote that made me pause, it said, “Fall is proof that change is beautiful.” This season does bring a lot of change. It marks the end of summer and closes the book on that chapter; and it also reminds us that the busy holiday season is right around the corner. It’s […]

South Denver Mini Sessions | Fly’n B Park in Highlands Ranch, CO

One of the things I aim to do for my clients beyond taking their pictures and delivering beautiful galleries is educating them on best photography practices. For example, one of the things I like to do is inform people on what to expect at the session, showcase what types of sessions I offer, and even […]

Windy Boulder Outdoor Mini Sessions

Wind is a challenging element to deal with as an outdoor photographer. Rain—well, that one you just have to reschedule or wait it out in Colorado. Windy conditions, however, can be both a blessing and a curse. You must determine if it will work in your favor or against you. On one hand, the wind […]

From grandparents to cousins, aunts and uncles, extended family plays a vital role in our lives. Preserving those memories through photography is essential.

South Mesa Flatirons Fall Mini Sessions | Boulder CO

Do you remember as a kid how slooooow time would go? Being told to wait even one minute was equivalent to waiting for eternity. I have found that the older I get, the faster time goes. Even when I try to “cherish every second”, “be present” and “live in the moment”, I still can’t figure […]
