Have we mentioned how much we love RiNo? It's ecstatic; the colorful personality of RiNo adds so much character to our city -- and, of course, to our sessions! But honestly, we didn't need much help this time around since Hailey and Kevin's family brought plenty of personality to our session! Murals Something that RiNo is quite famous for is its abundance of painted murals. Being the primary 'arts district' of Denver means that this neighborhood is home to a lot of raw yet articulate energy. We were able to find a range of different murals for this shoot, which provided some excellent background. Click here to check out another vibrant family session we had in RiNo! RiNo also hosts some pretty cool events throughout the year, check out their event calendar here! One event that is currently underway is DIAMOND HUNT, a fun way to help visitors rediscover Brighton Boulevard. It's coordinated by the Parisian artist La Diamantaire. Merci bien! Bright Smiles Although RiNo is pretty rad on its own, wouldn't be the same without some spirited people! Hailey and Kevin's daughter's really stole the show, since no one had brighter smiles than them (although Mom and Dad do
Congratulations, Anahita and Brandon! Not only are you engaged, but you successfully modeled in downtown Denver like pros. This charming couple asked us to photograph their quintessential Denver engagement photos, and of course we had to say “yes”!!! Love in the City We’ll take any opportunity to boast about and showcase our wonderful city and its attractions. If you’re looking for something modern and urban, but still wonderfully beautiful, Union Station and Millennium Bridge are two of Denver’s most popular sites. We recommend these spots for any photography occasion! Like Anahita and Brandon, many others chose to have their photos taken at these popular spots. Check out Hillary and Justin’s Union Station engagement photos here and Kiki and Ret’s downtown engagement photos here! From January to July! Anahita and Brandon not only looked urbanely chic, but they looked stunning against the bridge’s geometric structure and Union Station’s magical look. Anahita had a wide, bright smile the entire time. Brandon looked happy and hungry for as many hugs as he could get. A few snowflakes even showed up to give a little more magic to the occasion! We could have been in The Polar Express we were so smitten with the
Fall is just around the corner, so to kick off the season of oranges and yellows and flannel outfits, we want to share Nicole and Carm's family photos at Red Rocks! What a joy it was to photograph this family of four in their most stylish outfits and fun personalities! A beloved and increasingly famous venue, Red Rocks is known for its concerts and impressive surround sound effects. However, it’s also known for its stunning rock faces and vistas that showcase both the Colorado landscape and the city of Denver. This place is close to our hearts because we’ve been here many times to snap occasions of every kind. No matter the circumstance or season, Red Rocks surely will not disappoint! Check out our many other family photo sessions here! A Fabulous Four With brunette hair and a burst of red, with golden fall leaves and dapper flannels that match, this family was a total joy to photograph! Nicole and Carm proudly held their two boys Griffin and Sawyer, who clearly already have a strong budding relationship. The boys giggled and danced, jumped and skipped together with wide eyes and big smiles. As you can imagine, we couldn’t get enough of
Nothing says joy like fresh air, toasted marshmallows, and the holiday season! With cozy clothes and some ready smiles, we went with Keith, Hawzien, and their two adorable sons for some family photos at Boulder Tree Farm! Naturally, we had that giddy feeling that comes with holiday cheer while we played hide and seek under the trees and afternoon sun. The Tree Farm Creekside Tree Nursery, or Boulder Tree Farm, provides dozens of trees and shrubs for home, business or custom landscaping projects. Of course, when we visited with Keith and Hawzien in early December, this place had its Christmas tree selection on full display! Trees of all shapes, sizes, and kinds made a spectacular pine maze and the most wonderfully scented air! We even experienced some déjà vu from Dana and Michelle’s tree farm proposal at this very location! Family Festivities As always, we made it our mission to capture the most beautiful moments with this sweet family of four. Each of them was absolutely rocking the patterned shirts and cozy button jackets. Now, you might think patterns on the whole family could look a little chaotic. However, this family matched impeccably with tones of blue, grey, and browns.
This family is truly living a life of color! Tonia, Sean and their four children invited us to photograph their vibrant RiNo family photos, so of course, we said yes! Denver’s RiNo Arts District proved the perfect spot for this family because it matched their bright personalities and expressive dispositions. Everything is a Canvas RiNo or River North, Arts District in north Denver is a neighborhood full of wall designs, artistic experimentation, and colorful flares. In addition to all the public art, the streets of this place have a blend of urban charm and unique industrial revival at work. We love photographing families, couples, and individuals here because the neighborhood’s personality often works well with the people themselves. Each wall tells a story and walking along alleyways and down corridors are like a fun game of hide-and-seek for the perfect photo backdrop! To see what we mean when we talk about personality and paint, check out our other RiNo photography here! Oh Happy Day! Tonia and Sean shared their beautiful four children with us, and wow did we have a good time with this crew! Dressed in blacks, whites, and jeans, this family of six had all the giggles and
Engagement season is almost upon us, and what better way to celebrate than champagne on this cold January day at Clear Creek? It's always a pleasure for us to contribute to building long-lasting relationships -- so here's to you, Danielle & Eli! Clear Creek Clear Creek is a small brook that runs through Golden, CO that offers scenic richness and beauty to the surrounding areas. During the summer, people can come to the creek to fish, kayak, and even inner-tube in the creek's waters. The trail that runs along the creek also offers a great path for runners and bikers alike. Get some more information on Clear Creek here! During the winter months, Clear Creek county (which is a bit farther west from Denver) offers some great holiday events that can help you get into high winter spirits. The winter months in Colorado bring forth a great combination of sunlight and snow. The mountains near Golden provide some great background for our sessions. Check out some of our other shoots that took place in Golden here! Champagne and Cuddles Honestly, what could be better? Well, a dog could never hurt! This couple's +1 was the cutest -- we love having pets in
A cute new face has blessed Colorado, and we were so grateful to capture the newborn-cuteness of baby Kal in this cutely themed newborn photoset! Parents, Katie and Ryan, graciously invited us into their home to capture some blissful and candid moments, and we loved every bit of it! If you want to see some more adorable photos, click here! A Family in Blue Newborn photo shoots are always heartwarming and special, and our session with Katie, Ryan, and Kal was no different! We could tell that Katie and Ryan were loving parents from the start because of the way Kal laid so calmly in their arms. However, you can also see this in their clothes! It is said that the color blue is strongly associated with tranquility and calmness, and what a fit for Kal's personality! It's a bird! No, it's a plane! No, wait -- it's Superman! Kal is absolutely adorable in his Superman outfit, and it looks like Ryan will have to start studying his crash course! Costumes are always a great addition to a newborn photo session. Not only do they enhance the photo session by providing a theme, but they also make for very cute
Freshly fallen February snow is entirely underrated! There is truth to the cliché of “winter wonderland,” and today we will prove it to you. These three, beautiful women invited us to capture their family photos at Kendrick Lake Park in Lakewood, Colorado. Based on these glowing family photos and their abundant smiles, we are convinced a winter flurry has just as much magic as a sky of stars! Snow… in the Park! Kendrick Lake Park, like many Colorado parks, is stocked full of biking and walking paths, beautiful vegetation, a peaceful lake, and playgrounds for all! While many might not think to go to the park after the warm spring and summer months, parks like this prove the most stunning locations for fall and winter family photography. The sky stayed blue and the snow reflected the day’s light like a dream! Three Musketeers Walking paths and snowy bridges proved ideal photography settings while powdered trees and snow-covered fields made stunning backdrops. Furthermore, these three ladies are just about as charming as Christmas morning! Their color coordination of jeans, blacks, and whites made a beautiful collage of wintery hues. They are beautiful, loving, and giggled throughout the whole day. They even
Once upon a time, on a brisk November day, Nora and Dom said their “I Do’s” under sparkling chandeliers and among friends and family. We went back to one of our favorite wedding venues, the Lionsgate Event Center to photograph this charming wedding. Lionsgate Highlights Lionsgate Event Center, located in Lafayette, Colorado, offers a clean and brilliant space for any occasion in any style! Grand staircases make way for the bride’s princess train, and white chairs match white-slatted windows and swooping ceilings. Plus, every princess needs her magical chandeliers! Lionsgate has those too, and Dora looked radiant under the glittering lights and crystal. The outdoor space is just as fantastic as the inside – trust us! The place has a style that combines rustic architecture with splendid castles fit for royalty. Guests can enjoy both glam and comfort in this space with its winding stone pathways and bending trees. Check out the other Lionsgate events we have photographed here! Putting the “Charm” in Prince Charming But enough about the venue – Nora and Dom looked like Princess and her Prince Charming all night long! Nora wore a princess ball gown decorated in delicate lace and crystals. Her bouquets had a moody,
