Nicholas in Centennial
I first met Nicholas when I shot newborn photos of him and his parents Chip and Melissa seven months ago. And after this last photo shoot, I am so grateful they did not wait until he was a year old before letting me photograph him again. He is absolutely adorable, not only photographically but in his personality. After being around his parents and grandparents, I could clearly understand where he gets both traits. We shot for over an hour and he was wonderful every minute, although he wasn’t so sure he liked the snowstorm! Thanks, Chip and Melissa, for the chance to spend time with your son. And Happy Holidays to you and everyone as I leave tomorrow morning for three weeks in New Zealand and Australia. I’ll post my favorite shots in January.
Cooper Turns One in Stapleton
Every time I look at these pictures of Cooper I start to smile. And I can’t quit. He kept that infectious grin going for over an hour solid as we shot pictures of him in the freezing cold, playing with his aunt and uncle’s cat, and crawling all over the house. I also had a great time with his parents, Missy and Danny, while we captured Cooper at one. And, continuing my tradition of photographing landmark birthdays with something special that belongs to a parent, I managed to get a shot of Cooper with his dad’s baseball cap (before he tore it off his head!). Happy Birthday, Cooper!
Lauren and Megan in Stapleton
When we recently moved to the Stapleton area in Denver, we bought our house from a wonderful, gracious couple who were also expecting their second daughter soon after closing. Perfect timing for some shots of two adorable girls and their parents; I had so much fun playing with Lauren, who would put a real princess to shame, and Megan, who provided all sorts of entertainment. Thank you, Leah and Josh, for the opportunity to record your beautiful family.
