I also live on coffee + tacos, but what mom of toddlers doesn't?1

Courtney + Brad wanted to celebrate their anniversary with a long overdo couple’s session and I was so happy the stars aligned! They traveled in from Iowa and we made our way to Mt. Falcon Park in Morrison, CO a fun afternoon around the trees!
Sarah and her husband Buck were planning on taking a vacation in the beautiful state of Colorado, so they reached out to me for a very special anniversary session. Sarah is a wedding photographer based in Washington, DC so it was an honor to have her in front of my lens. We started the day down the road from Sarah’s family home…in a field of sunflowers. And ended the session with perfect morning light in Estes Park. Yeah, I’m okay waking up at 5:30am for that. 😉
Earlier that morning, I was prepping for an all day chat with Christy. It involved a coffee run, cleaning up dog toys, lighting candles, making sure my home was welcoming and what I would want to walk into after flying a thousand miles. Christy flew out from Wisconsin with her husband to have a mentoring session with me and recharge. It was such an honor to be even considered a “teacher” of something, anything.
I loved sharing what I learned over the years, and my favorite part of the day was photographing her and her husband! With thick clouds threatening to cut our sunset time short, we headed down the road from my house to one of my favorite locations. We ran though fields, battled mosquitoes (I might of lost that one), and chased the pretty golden light.
Stori + Patrick actually met in Greeley years ago! They were both going to UNC and after I heard that I loved the fact that we decided to have a mini session just down the road from my house! This little trail is so different every time I visit! I hope to photograph it every...
Mya + Casey might look familiar, and that’s because they are pro’s when it comes to being in front of my camera. Years (and years) ago, I photographed their wedding, and since then I’ve been waiting for the time to get to photograph them again! Lucky for me they are expecting their first child in...
Mirella + Alan are one of my past wedding couples, so when I heard about their new addition to the family I was SOOO excited to photograph the occasion! They are expecting a beautiful girl this February! Flower Crown: Studio Oh La La

Tony + Cecilia are the reason why I have my Disneyland pass today. Years ago, we met up for their engagement session at the park, and now I get the honor of photographing a new addition to the family!!! Jay and I had such a great time with them, chatting about people watching, dodging kids...
These two are actually already married, but that didn’t stop them from having the engagement session that Maia always wanted. The three of us spent a gorgeous day in nature and I had such a great getting to know them. They both live if different cities, but that doesn’t stop them from traveling together!
First post of 2013, kinda cool right? Really, every day I’m working I feel so incredibly lucky and blessed to continue to do what I love. And when other photographers contact me about getting portraits themselves…it makes me have a mini dance party in my office. Allison Stahl is a wedding and portrait photographer in...
My couples might recognize Natalie…she’s one of my favorite second shooters and I’ve been working with her for also two years now! She’s the perfect mix of sarcastic, talented and silly…just my cup of tea. 🙂 Natalie also has the cutest son ever, so I was SO happy when she pushed me to do mini...
This was the first year I offered Holiday mini sessions, and I’m so glad I did! It gave my friends and couples a chance to jump in front of the camera when they might of not otherwise. Kiera + Josh run Jakfoto Films, and we have become really good friends over the last few years....
