As summer starts to turn into fall, the sunflower field is in bloom! Last year was my first offering family photos at this private sunflower field near Windsor, CO, and I am so excited to be heading back this year! Mini sessions are the perfect option for the sunflower field! You get a beautiful variety […]

It has always been my favorite season, so I might be a little biased, but summer is truly the best time for family photos in Northern Colorado. Yes, fall is typically touted as the time of year to get your pictures taken but as a photographer with 10 + years of experience, I’m going to […]

After years of avoiding glitter mini sessions (OMG THE MESS!), I jumped in with both feet and had the best time! The mess is totally even worse than I thought it would be but 100% worth the joy on the faces of the kids in front of my camera! Oh, and their mamas were thrilled […]

Mini Sessions are the best for a quick family photo update! These littles were totally into my shenanigans and having fun playing with mom and dad while I snapped away! This session took place in early fall and the colors and weather were gorgeous!! I recommend scheduling family photos in Northern Colorado between July and […]

During these freezing cold days, I’m so grateful for my nice cozy studio located in downtown Loveland. Taking pictures outside this time of year is just not in the cards for me. I’m a lot like a small child when I get cold; it’s all I can focus on and there is no fun to […]

I am so excited to be introducing a new series here today! I am always blown away by the talent and resources we have in our local community but have experienced first hand that it’s not always easy to find the help you need! Much of the time, we don’t even know what to look […]

That first birthday session is totally about celebrating a baby’s growth over their first year, but it’s also about celebrating surviving all those sleepless nights, and the growth you go through as a parent! I was so happy that mom wanted to hop in a few photos to mark that change too. The new studio […]
