I think if you ask any kid whether he would rather have his photo taken in the studio or the park, chances are he will vote for the park. Obviously, a portrait session in the park gets easier as kids get a little older. When they’re really young, the containment of the studio certainly makes things more productive.
Of course my friend’s boys, featured here, are well beyond the running wild stage. I’ve had the pleasure of photographing them since the youngest was only three months old. It’s so fun to watch them grow over the years.
We did a sibling pose by my favorite little waterfall. It’s pretty and it creates a nice environment in which kids can relax and look natural.
It’s always rewarding when I come away with a sibling pose where everyone has a good expression and appears to be having a good time. These boys are wonderful kids to work with and made my job easy.
As much fun as the group poses are, my favorite time is working one on one. I enjoy getting to know the kids and what interests them. Getting them to talk takes their mind off of the picture taking and allows their personality to shine through.

Look at those beautiful eyes! As a photographer, I’m always looking at the eyes. You’ve probably heard that the eyes are the window to the soul. I completely agree. But, I’m also fascinated with how beautiful lighting can create a kaleidoscope of colors and bring them to life. Mira’s big brown eyes were like mirrors of the world around her.![]()
Her brother Max shares those good looks as well. It was such treat to photograph both of them again this year. My very first session with them was years ago when Max was only three years old and Mira was one. They are very sweet kids and a lot of fun to photograph.
Their mom treated dad to a surprise birthday gift of a beautiful photo book containing all her favorite images from this session.
Dad loved it!

I have always loved the beauty of Red Rocks Park, but since I don’t live nearby it hasn’t been one of my regular locations for portrait sessions. After doing this senior portrait session with Akio, it is now one of my favorite spots. The color, texture and shapes of the red rocks create a beautiful and interesting backdrop for portraits.
It was such a pleasure to work with Akio. Besides being a great looking senior, he is a genuinely nice guy. He had a natural ease with posing which made my job easier and just plain fun.
Best of luck Akio with all your future plans!

I recently created a book of my favorite scenic photographs from the past several years. It’s a personal project I have wanted to do for a long time for my family. As I sorted through which images to include, I was reminded of how lucky I am to have traveled to these beautiful places. I thought you might enjoy seeing some of them.
My family and I love to explore national parks. I think America is blessed with so many amazing and diverse landscapes and we are wise to protect them through the national park system.
Glacier National Park in Montana will always be one of my favorite parks. We visit every year when we are in the area to see family. Each visit is a little different depending on the weather that day and the spring leading up to our arrival. ![]()
Yellowstone National Park is so unique with it’s multi-colored geysers bubbling up across the landscape. It’s like stepping onto another planet. I love taking in all the details of the vibrant colors and textures.
Mammoth Hot Springs in north Yellowstone is another beautiful natural phenomenon created by mineral deposits.
Carlsbad Caverns was my first introduction to caves. and now I won’t pass up an opportunity to explore one. I find the formations fascinating.
I enjoyed rediscovering Mount Rushmore as an adult. We took the time to walk the path and see the monument closer and learn more about the history of its creation. It really is an impressive work of art and engineering.
I was thrilled to go on the photography tour of Antelope Canyon in Arizona. The swirls of orange rock are perfectly illuminated for a brief time when the sun is directly overhead of the slot canyon.
Bryce Canyon is one of those places that I could enjoy looking at for hours. The bright orange of the hoodoos against the blue Utah sky is spectacular. It’s easy to see why the early natives thought their ancestors turned to stone when they died because so many of the formations resemble humans and animals.
Capturing the vastness of the Grand Canyon in a photograph is a challenge. I liked how the sweeping clouds help convey how this canyon goes on and on for miles.
Grand Teton National Park is truly a gem with it’s rugged mountains and pristine lakes.
Mesa Verde is another marvel. I found it interesting to learn about the ingenuity of these ancient people in building their homes on the protected cliffs, farming above them and disposing of waste below them.
I’ve also been fortunate enough to explore a few Canadian National Parks including Banff and Waterton. The mountains are even more impressive there and the limestone laden water is an incredible emerald green.
If you have the opportunity, I encourage you to hop in the car or rent an RV to explore the beautiful landscapes of America. It’s awe inspiring, educational and sure to revitalize your spirit.

Cute kids and colorful costumes make dance photography a real joy for me. I have been photographing the dancers at Grace Studios School of Dance in Broomfield, Colorado for the past couple of years. And I can honestly say that I have more fun each time I do it. The kids are great and I love seeing the costumes the teachers come up with for each dance.
I photograph the dancers individually and in a group poses that usually reflects their first or final move in their particular dance. It’s fun to do the traditional poses and also to try something fun and spontaneous.
I also enjoy photographing the dancers during their live performances to capture their sheer joy as they express themselves through dance.
If you or kids enjoy dancing and you live in the area, I highly recommend Grace Studios. The instructors are great and the music and costumers are always creative while staying age appropriate. You can find out more at their website www.GraceStudios.com

Every year the Professional Photographers of Colorado hosts a great event called K.I.S.S. which stands for Keep It Simple Seniors. It’s one of my favorite events because it offers the opportunity to learn from fellow photographers and share ideas on how to create exciting and artistic high school senior portraits. This year’s event focused on using different lighting techniques for indoor and outdoor photography. We had fun photographing high school seniors around Golden including at the amazing train museum. Here are a few of my favorite images from the day.

Precious baby Peyton was so sweet during her newborn portrait session. She was only twelve days old with a full head of beautiful black hair. It was a pleasure to work with her mom and dad during the session too. What a treat!![]()

I think a professional portrait is a great way to celebrate important milestones and significant achievements in our lives. And graduating from college certainly qualifies as one of those occasions. It is the culmination of years of hard work and commitment. It’s also the beginning of another chapter of life. Taking the time to have a portrait created provides a lasting memory of this special time. I also think it’s a wonderful way to share your joy with friends and family near and far.
It was so much fun to meet Megan and to create her college graduation portraits. She has a sweet personality and lovely smile that is infectious. Her beauty inside and out shines through. Congratulations on your graduation, Megan!
