It’s Just Tutu Cold For This

I made this yesterday, in anticipation of warmer weather, but woke to snow this morning.

Maybe if I buy some of those cute knit hats, the sun will come out again.
I’ll be making this in all sorts of colors over time. If you have a session coming up and you know you (or your [...]


A Snapshot Of My Niece

My sister took lots of photos when she was up here for my little one’s birthday party this week. I downloaded the photos from her camera because I had taken some that I wanted to process (which you may have seen here).
I kept a few of them to see what I could do to liven [...]


More Of My Nephews

I finally processed some of the photos I took with my own camera at the birthday party earlier this week.
I was only able to get two of my 5 nephews to sit for me; my niece was too busy with her cellie.
Here’s the guy you saw the other day.

He’s not even 15 [...]


Birthday Party Snapshots And A Smile From My Nephew

We finally had my youngest’s birthday party today.
It was just family in attendance, but they all live in the Denver area and so it was difficult to coordinate school schedules and work schedules - and illnesses - so we had to wait a while.
We ordered the cake from SunFlour Bakery weeks ago and my son [...]


Wanted: A Child To Photograph Tuesday Evening, April 1st

I’d like to get out and try some locations I’ve been thinking about, and would like to photograph kids other than my own.
What am I looking for?
One child (at least at a time) who won’t run away from me, at least not too much. I don’t need fancy clothes or anything, but I’d [...]


Business Photos: Parenting Educator Lisa Stroyan

Oh so long ago I mentioned that I was adding business photos to my portfolio.
Around the same time that I did Lisa’s family photos (which I never added more peaks of, I realize), I got the opportunity to make some business photos for her.
In the meantime, I *lost* them on my computer, and was unable [...]


Sweet Little Four Week Old

This sweet little baby’s mama and I had been trying to get together soon after her birth in order to get some newborn photos.
Unfortunately illness hit their house and stopped us from getting together until she was already 4 weeks old; little I. was apparently hardest hit by the bug.
She recovered well and [...]


And Baby Makes Three

A few weeks ago I drove up into the mountains to take photos of a newborn baby. We were hoping to get some golden light and so went during the last couple hours before sunset, but as we got closer to town, it began to snow!
The snow made me even more relieved that I’d had [...]


Sweet Nursing Session With Favorite Blankie

I had so much fun visiting Jule in her home, and doing some breastfeeding portraits of her little one.
Mama made sure to include little E.’s favorite blankie in the photos, because it is such an important object for her.
It’s so important that Mama cut the original - handmade (i.e. one of a kind) - blanket [...]


Birthday Boys

I’m slowly working on processing photos for three separate sessions.
I had to take a break from working on them because this past week was my oldest son’s and my youngest son’s birthdays.
About a month ago I was watching a show about photographers, and I got an idea from a famous portrait photographer (whose [...]
