Just a little something personal on the blog today. Can’t even believe that our sweet Oliva is already 9. She is beautiful inside and out, she is kind to everyone she meets, she gives the best hugs, tells the best jokes, loves school, gymnastics and could read for hours, and we love her with all our hearts!
{Lauren ~ Senior 2023}
What a beautiful night we had for Lauren's Senior session in downtown OKC! Such a fun time at our different locations and this girl doesn't know how to take a bad photo. Gorgeous inside and out! It was nearly impossible to narrow these down to just a few teasers!

This baby! <3 I enjoyed every single second with this handsome little love and his sweet parents. Gaw! I could have photographed him for another hour and I'm sure he would have let me. Slept like a dream, snuggled into every pose and let me just ooh and ahh all over him the entire time! Loved his little profile and those adorable cheeks!

Darling Olivia (her parents call her Livy too like we call our Olivia ). Loved loved loved her beautiful dark hair and she had the prettiest skin and longest lashes *sigh*.
{Lampe Family ~ Colorado Session}
This sweet family was my last group of my Colorado sessions! I had never met them before, but Lauren has followed me for quite some time on Facebook and I was so happy that she reached out when she saw I was coming back into town. This group was SO MUCH FUN! I only wish I had gotten to know them when I still lived there so I would have been able to photograph them more often! They were the perfect family to round out my time and I hope I get to see them all again in the future!
{Nicols Family ~ Colorado Session}
Knox and Ridley's parents wanted mostly photos of the two of them for their session with me this year and I was happy to oblige. I mean, LOOK AT THEM!!! So stinking cute!! Both of them so full of personality and sweetness that I almost couldn't stand it! So glad I've been able to watch them grow here and there over the years. Ridley has to have some of the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen and Knox simply couldn't be any cuter and full of spunk!
{Fitzgerald Family ~ Colorado Session}
It's been years and years since I've been able to see this adorable family and it was SO great to catch up with them (and their sweet pup too! )! Hard to believe last time I saw them Bennett was just a little guy and his Dad was playing airplane with him and C.C. hadn't even been born yet! Feels like we didn't skip a beat during our time together and forever thankful that after all these years they still wanted me to take their photos. <3
{Vaughn Family ~ Colorado Session}
Always love when I get to see this gorgeous family! Handsome little Owen was one of my favorite newborns ever, his parents are THE sweetest, and his little sister Leah couldn't possibly be more precious! The four of them seriously belong in a magazine somewhere! The kiddos were SO SO good for me and had so much fun taking photos! We had beautiful Colorado weather (finally) and this session will always be one that I remember. <3
{Queen Family ~ Colorado Session}
I've known this family longer than any other client I've ever had. Rachel (she'll always be "Ms. Rachel" to me) was Noah's toddler teacher when we first moved to Longmont back in 2008 when he was 15 months old. She's the one who modeled for me when I got my first "real camera" and needed to try out settings, angles, lighting, etc.. She's the one who asked me if I wanted to take photos of her in-law's beautiful horses because I had a love for animal photography as well. She's the one who let me take her and husband's engagement photos alllllll those years ago when I barely knew what I was doing. She's the one who gave me the honor of photographing her sweet babies just hours after they came into the world and then again for their newborn photos and milestones. After all this time, she's always supported my business and been a friend and for that I am forever grateful Our original shoot got rained out so we ended up meeting the next morning at a location I hadn't been to in years and I loved every minute with all four of them. Lochlan and Kian are simply the most adorable little guys and I'm so thankful I've been able to watch them grow over the years. Looking forward to the next time I see them all again. <3
{Bergeron Family ~ Colorado Session}
This family! <3 Not only do I adore them and ALWAYS get excited when I know I'm going to be able to spend time with them, they were absolutely the best family to be sheltering with when a huge storm blew in out of nowhere 5 minutes into our session. Nothing was in the forecast, radar was clear, and then a few rumbles of thunder and a full on downpour with lightning and hail sent us running for the only pavilion that we were close to. The parking lot was a good 10-15 minute walk from where we were shooting so we hunkered down and then made a run for it back to the car. But, as Colorado weather often does the storm passed, the clouds cleared, and it ended up being a beautiful evening to shoot. They were even gracious enough to drop me back at the hotel we were staying at so mu husband didn't have to get out with the kids. Loved seeing them and always so sad to say goodbye. And these kids are just the absolute sweetest! And if you couldn't tell, they don't love the camera or anything ;)
