This past fall season I am grateful to have photographed new families, families I’ve already met, and especially families I’ve gotten to meet BECAUSE of the ones I already know. I’m establishing connections all over the state of Colorado, and it feels so amazing and rewarding.
As a photographer of families and kids, word of mouth is kind of my best friend when it comes to advertising. Establishing a connection from the get-go with families like mutual friends is one of my favorite parts of the session. Another great part of this “job” is seeing kids grow up right before my eyes when we’ve spaced out the photos by a year or more. This past fall I had the pleasure of meeting with a family in Denver I previously photographed in Telluride over two years ago! A great friend from high school and college helped me take photos of her adorable niece and family over Thanksgiving while I was home in Houston. Also, I’m shooting a wedding this summer for a friend of a family I photographed in the fall. It’s also pretty common for me to babysit for families who were previous clients… So fair warning, if we work together, I might end up watching your dog while you’re out of town or playing Barbie’s and Lego’s with your kids.
There’s no better feeling than walking through a house and seeing the portraits I took hung on the walls, or receiving Christmas and holiday cards featuring smiling faces I got to photograph. It genuinely warms my heart! 2019 was a year of growth and progress, I’m hopeful for all the opportunities this new decade will hold. Big thanks to all the wonderful families and kids who let me document their stories this past fall! Here are a few of my favorite shots from the season.
