Re-posting one of my favorite high school senior photo sessions in Boulder!
Lilly's High School Senior Photoshoot at Chautauqua - Boulder, CO was gorgeous. We got there just before the sun was behind the mountains and we had the perfect amount of light. Lilly had never had professional photos taken before, so I did a lot of prompting and directing as I usually do to make people comfortable. Lilly is gorgeous and I loved this session.
Mary texted me a photo of her staircase and said “Look how nice the light is!!! Can you come over and take pictures of me?”
Mary and I are always looking for inspiration to take new photos and use the body as art. She really wanted to incorporate something different this time. She wasn’t sure what until I suggested water and her face lit up. These photos show our thought process for this lovely concept.
I’m so grateful to have Mary as a friend. She is vulnerable, emotional and so kind and passionate about life and her art.

Saturday Lake Hike - The weather was gorgeous this day. It was very warm around 11am and by 2 or 3pm, rain started falling and the temperatures dropped. It was a nice break from the harsh sun.
The blues here are incredible. I already want to go back :)

I had been to Dream lake once in October of 2018. It was a foggy, rainy/snowy day. The visibility was only as good as about 20 feet in front of me. Going back to this lake and up to Emerald Lake in August of 2019, I got to see the mountains in the distance that I had never seen before! I loved this difference in weather patterns and season.
These lakes are great hikes to get to with stunning views and beautiful at any time of the year.
Rocky Mountain National Park Day Hike to Gem Lake - August 2019
This was my first trip to the Rockies this summer. I bought an annual park pass earlier in July and wanted to start getting more use out of it for the rest of summer. This place is amazing. I’ve been to the Rockies a few times since I was 12 years old and I always want to go back and explore more of this park. My goal is to go back a few more times before September :)
