Maternity Photo Inspiration with Dogs in Colorado

Karl and Leanna are expecting a baby girl and they’re thrilled to have yet another girl in their pack. We explored this beautiful park in Lyons. I loved the huge rock wall by the river. The fall colors were still in full swing and we had perfect weather. The dogs, Annie and Meesha wanted to be near Leanna and Karl at all times which resulted in a fair amount of howling throughout our session. Luckily, that resulted in lots of laughs and fun moments in between. Leanna and Karl and wonderful, intelligent and kind people. I feel more grateful and happy each time I’m given the opportunity to document parts of my friends’ lives.

Colorado Engagement Photographer - Silverthorne, Colorado Proposal

Christian and Monica came up to Colorado from Texas for a long weekend with some of their closest friends and family. Christian contacted me before the trip so we could plan logistics and be as stealthy as possible. He told Monica that everyone had pitched in for a photographer to get group photos at Sapphire Point in Silverthorne. So I met everyone on a snowy afternoon to take the photos. Christian and I had decided on a prompt that would get them into the proposal pose and Monica seemed surprised enough! Her disbelief and emotion was special to see unfold. One of the best parts about being a photographer is getting to see how much love people have for one another in such a short amount of time. And to witness this incredible moment!! I am so grateful to have this career as a documenter, memory preserver and to help my clients feel comfortable and cared for.

Riverbend Lyons Wedding Photographer - Lyons, Colorado

If you want to have a mountain wedding on a river, then the Riverbend in Lyons, CO is a great option.

This venue has plenty of room for hundreds of guests at the ceremony site as well as at the reception tent.

There are mules that wear harnesses to carry beverages around during cocktail hour, a ton of open space for guests to wander and enjoy the river and wooded areas.

The areas for getting ready are fancy yurts which were cool for unique photos.

Denver Couples Photographer - Urban Engagement Inspiration

When my cousin, Val texted me asking to take engagement photos for her and her fiance, I was so excited. I got to make a special trip home to Illinois to see them and spend the afternoon in downtown Chicago. This day was particularly hectic because one of our other many cousin’s was having hr bridal shower that day. We had lunch at Cabra in Chicago, took advantage of the rooftop pool views before heading to the suburbs for the bridal shower. We stayed there for an hour or two, then we went back downtown to meet Theron and their dog, Baxter at our next location. We found a busy beach spot near Hyde Park but it was perfect for some champagne pop photos and lake views.

Even though it was a long day, it was the best thing to get to know Theron for a few hours and reconnect with my cousin Val. We hadn’t spent this much time together since I was in high school or college! These two are an amazing couple with such ambitious and successful lives already. I am so excited for their wedding next year and to support them from afar as they continue to grow together. Documenting their love and the beginning of this next step for them was so rewarding for me to witness.
