This would be the first time I have ever met little Lucy because it has been about 15 years since I saw Laura. On my next trip to Denver I hope to meet the rest of her children and get the whole family together for a session, but this one was just for Mommy and Lucy. Lucy was ready to go out and have some fun and before I could ask her to take off her shoes so that I could get those little toes in the photos, she sat down and said “I want to take my shoes off”. Perfect. We met at the beautiful St. Julien Hotel & Spa in Boulder and then walked to a nearby park. Lucy was full of endless energy and giggles 🙂 At the end of our session, Lucy mentioned that she wanted to pick a flower. We walked back to St. Julian and it was all Lucy could do to JUST sniff the flowers and not pick. “Why can’t I pick them?” she asked.
When we went inside I found some amazing light by the windows and wanted to finish off with a few photos inside St. Julian. Well, what do we see? More flowers right there on the table that we were taking photos next to. So I decided to get one of them out of the vase and let her hold it. The photos of her sniffing the flower was priceless!! Her crinkled up nose made me laugh.
Thank you Laura & Lucy for allowing me to capture a few special moments between you two. I hope to see you all again real soon! I miss Colorado already.
Thank you for stopping by!

Spring in Colorado can be full of fickle weather. One morning it can snow and then by the afternoon it is sunny and warm. I crossed my fingers for good weather for the few days I was in the Denver area for various shoots. Well thank goodness the finger crossing worked. The days were incredibly beautiful with warmer temperatures. Just as soon as I got back to South Carolina, Jane text me to let me know that it was cold and snowing again…wonderful and perfect timing! Whew.
Brian and Jane wanted to have an engagement session in Colorado at some of their favorite spots since the wedding will be in New Orleans. We started the day off at the Denver Botanical Gardens and then headed out to Red Rocks. We originally had it planned to go to 4 locations, however each location had so many amazing places within itself that we had a very full day going to two. When Jane asked if they could bring their dogs Koda and Kiska, I said “ABSOLUTELY”. So, on our way to Red Rocks we stopped by their house to pick up Koda & Kiska and a change of clothes.
The first location at Red Rocks had a perfectly shaped rock for an awesome background, BUT there were signs saying the area was closed due to rattlesnakes. Brian tried to convince both Jane and I that they weren’t out this time of year, even though we saw a skin of what looked like a very large rattler! Yikes. I had such a great time with you two and I cannot wait for the wedding in New Orleans 🙂
Please enjoy a handful of images and just below them, a slideshow highlighting the day.
Thank you for stopping by!
