Family

the powells: family.

I was so happy to have the chance to photography the Powells again, and this time with their extended family. 6 adults and 6 kids and every single one was wonderful. We had a perfect evening, the little ones liked being my assistants, and the geese were happy to stay in the background. I couldn’t ask for much more.

Thank you Powell family for spending your evening with me. I loved the chance to be with all of you, and I really hope you will cherish these photos for years to come.

the ridleys: family.

I've known the Ridleys for a few years now through church and book club, and they are the best. Jennie, Alec, Ham, and little sister (also known as Betty) met me on an especially hot Denver day but the shade was kind to us (and an ice cream truck may have made an appearance at an especially helpful time). 

I love thier Southern charm and clear love for each other. Parenting two small humans is never easy, but Jennie and Alec show patience and grace and an extra side of humor to make it through together. They are such a beautiful family.

Thank you Ridleys for spending your afternoon with me. I hope you will cherish these photos for years to come.

the loyds: family.

The Loyds make you wonder how so many great people ended up in one family. I've known Jenny, Kate, Amy, and Justin for years and was so happy to meet their brother Mark and the rest of the family a couple of weeks ago.

Even though the Denver heat was in full effect and the playground was in sight, we managed to keep all the kids happy (fruit snacks may have played an important role in this). Everyone was so wonderful that I almost forgot there were 16 people who needed to be photograhed. They truly made my job easy.

Thank you Loyds for giving me the opportunity to spend the afternoon with your amazing (and growing) family. I hope your yearly family photo tradition continues for years to come.

the heyds: newborn and family.

I love this family. This is the third time I've had the pleasure of photographing them, and each time I leave feeling so thankful for people like the Heyds who invite me into their lives at such important moments. 

Carrie, Will, Maebel, and Moose just welcomed baby Oliver into the family a couple of weeks ago, and he is absolutely perfect. His mohawk is really just the cherry on top of it all. And Maebel is already the best big sister. She loved holding her brother and smiling (especially when gummy treats were involved:) Carrie and Will are navigating life as a family of 4 with grace and kindness (and a lot of coffee, I'm sure:) 

Thank you Heyds for letting me come to your home and document such a wonderful time in your lives. Maebel and Oliver will never know a day without love, and that is the most important thing of all.
