Mother and Daughter Portrait Session #100Portraits100Weeks

Mothers And Daughters. What an incredible, delicate bond. I have two daughters, and their mere existence takes my breath away. But man, is there any relationship more riddled with conflict? We are so similar and so different. The mother/daughter relationship has been the crucible for much of my growth since my oldest daughter was born, and continues now that my youngest daughter is three. I adore every ornery-sweet inch of both of them! 

A few weeks ago beautiful Dawn and Anika came in for portraits to celebrate a Anika's 16th birthday. We started with makeup and hair by the talented Annalisa, and shot for the next two hours. We played jams on Pandora and had a wonderful morning together. Every mother and daughter should get their portraits done together at one point in their lives.

Name Your Price Photo Sessions

Every woman needs gorgeous prints of herself. Every woman deserves to know that she is beautiful. Regardless of her age, height, weight, skin tone, skin texture, demeanor, dreams attained or unattained, EVERY WOMAN IS BEAUTIFUL.

Age should not be an issue. Weight should not be an issue. Self-worth should not be an issue. Money should not be an issue.

That's why I am offering a Name Your Price incentive. If you are thinking about portraits, but are unsure of which product you want and what you want to pay. Then you tell me. Tell me what you'd like to take home, and what you'd like to pay and we can come up with a pricing package just for you. I will work off of my basic price sheet and custom create a price point and product that you will treasure forever. Not sure where to start? All proposed portrait shoots should start at $500. This is my job, and kids and husbands are expensive. Yes, I have multiples of both. Hehehe... Just kidding. I put that out there to see if my hubby reads my blog. (He doesn't.)

Bottom line, you will never regret taking a morning for portraits of yourself. You will never regret spending money to immortalize yourself to your children and grandchildren. You will never regret having beautiful portraits of yourself on the days when you don't feel beautiful, on the days when you're sick, or alone, or feeling lost. You can always look at your portraits as a reference point, and see yourself as the beautiful, powerful, strong woman you are. And THAT is priceless.

Week 4: #100portraits100weeks Glamour Portraits in Estes Park

I'm lucky enough to have grandparents with a home in Estes Park Colorado. Last weekend my family and I went up for a short visit and I got my beautiful sister to model for me. She's wearing a vintage Victor Costa Saks Fifth Avenue gown that I bought for her at an estate sale. The purple looks heavenly against the mountain backdrop!

She can be gorgeous and goofy!

Glam the Dress Portrait Session - Colorado Springs

One of the best things about photographing women is some of the fun and beautiful dresses I get to photograph. Annie picked up this vintage dress when she was 10 with the intention of wearing it to prom. I insisted on a few impromptu photos and here a few of what we got!
