Colorado Family Reunion

I love living in a beautiful place like Colorado.  We have beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers and too many activities to list here.  Everyone wants to visit.   It isn’t surprising family reunions are quite popular in this area.  Jenni organized a reunion for her in-laws’ 40th wedding anniversary and asked me to join them for some family photos.  I spent the morning in Lyons with them.

This was my favorite group photo.  When I work with a family I don’t like to pose too much and I don’t like stiff, fake smiles.  I try to find natural laughter and where everyone is having fun.  So even though everyone isn’t looking right at me I loved the natural laughter and shared joke within Jenni’s family.

Another photo with great smiles.  Note to Jenni’s family – this photo was taken full length but because someone wasn’t wearing good shoes (and I won’t mention which person here – but you know who I am referring to :)   I cropped the images.  Just request the crop in your orders.

Just like the family portraits time during a wedding, we split into whatever groupings you want for your family photos.

I loved this image of the anniversary couple.

Here is the crowd reaction photo while I was working with the anniversary couple.  It was a little chilly this morning and I really liked this snuggling aunts and niece photo.

Thank you Jenni for inviting me to meet your family.  I really enjoyed working with you and I hope you have a safe trip back home.  The online gallery with all of the images will be ready soon.

Baby Z is One Year Old

I can’t believe it was only one year ago that we were taking Connie’s maternity photos and then Zuri’s newborn photos.  Here she is on her one year birthday!  This photography session is a great example of simple locations.  We started right after Zuri woke from her nap and took some images of her playing in the living room and then headed to the closest park.  No big trips for baby, no fuss.  We were finishing right in time for dinner and when Zuri was pretty much done with pictures.  There is no need to travel when I will come to you and make everything simple.

For one year photos we have to get photos of the little walker.  This is typically the age when baby is taking her first steps.

I loved this series.  The dog had to be a part of the photos :)

As promised, here is part two from Andrew’s senior portraits.  Andrew’s mom, Kathy, took advantage of Andrew’s interest in having senior photos taken and scheduled a whole family portrait session with the senior photo session.  They picked a beautiful spot with Colorado red rocks for the backgrounds.  We even had a little snow left from our Spring blizzard 2 days prior.
