Valentine Beauty – Colorado family photographer

Here she is, sassy little smile and all.

It took a little bribe of some Valentines candy, but I got her to pose.

Valentines are the best, they feel like a little hug.

Nothing beats a personalized card, and with a photo it is perfection !


Happy Valentines Day!

My Little Heart Breaker – Colorado family photographer

Handsome isn’t he?

He says I am his Valentine and that Daddy has to share me.

Soon enough there will be other Valentines,  but for now it is just me……

Birthday Girl

Today is my birthday.

As I get older my birthdays seem to be something like a double edged sword.

On the one hand I feel lucky to be here, how many people pass away with out getting to be 34 years old?   Having a family with a beautiful little girl, a busy little boy,  a handsome and  rugged,  lovingly obnoxious  husband?

On the other hand I feel my youth slipping away.  I was talking to a friend about something that happened when I was in high school …when  I realized that was 20 years ago!

WHAT….When did that happen?

The “boys” at the grocery store and restaurants now call me ma’am.

I know it’s the natural progression on things, but it’s a hard pill to swallow..

I decided to take a birthday portrait, wow…not easy to look at my self on my  24″ monitor when I already feel sensitive about the aging process.


Pretty Light, Cold Day

 

It was FREEZING here today.

My kids were bundled up even in the house with the heat running.

My little Beauty had a fuzzy scarf wrapped around her head.

When the last bit of warm sun came through our front door window,  I grabbed my camera.

 

Bedtime Beauty

I struggle with taking pictures at night.

Grain/noise is my enemy and flash seems take the softness out of my pictures.

As I put my daughter to bed I brought my camera, pushing myself to take a night time photo.

Here she is snuggled up on her pillow and I love the grain in this case.

I love her!

I liked how this one almost looks like an abstract painting………if only I was talented enough to paint and draw!

Hello October

My hubby took the kids to the gym with him Saturday morning and that left me time to explore the changing leaves.

I swear I almost blinded myself looking through a glass lens pointed at the sun, but I liked the result so much it was worth it!

Hello October!

Lashes

How incredible are his eye lashes? This little guy is 20months old and just a doll.  I had a great time chasing after him and really like how his portraits turned out!
