{Colorado Springs Photographer} Vintage Cars

I'm a little behind on blogging about this little fun adventure I had back in Colorado. A friend of mine from Photography class was planning this little shoot at a local junkyard. Just to get some practice in and she invited me to come along. I jumped at the idea of it. I have such a soft spot for vintage cars. I really do love them. It was a nice hot, sunny day in March in downtown Colorado Springs. I got a few fun shots of the beat up cars, some nice texture and some interior shots. Definitely was a fun time to shoot to send me off before we moved! I'm not sure of all the types of cars or the years, there was a lot of chevy's though. Some in kind of decent shape too!

{{Colorado Photographer}} Laura Ballard

I had the pleasure of  photographing fellow photographer and friend Laura Ballard. We 

 went to school together and became fast friends. We had planned a fun day to go shooting in downtown Denver. Along with a couple of other friends but it decided to SNOW that day! Of course, that's what happens in Colorado. We rescheduled a few times and it ultimately ended up being just the two of us. We decided to keep it more local and went downtown Colorado Springs instead. We found a couple awesome spots, where the light was awesome and the buildings were old with a lot of character! It made for a lot of great photos. 

It's always fun to shoot with other photographers. I really enjoy feeding off of each others creativity. We had such a great time!

{{Colorado Family Portraits}} Lares Family

As I am preparing to leave the Colorado Springs area, I wanted to get a few more photo sessions in. This adorable little Family did not disappoint! The camera just loved them, with their matching sweaters and sunglasses and super cute smiles. We shot down at Manitou Springs and it was a nice backdrop for these photos. They were so sweet together always laughing. The boys had such great energy and were all over the place. They definitely kept me on my toes. I really had a great time photographing this family!

This is probably one of my favorite photos from this session !

{{Portraits}} Emily is Twenty-One

Let me introduce you to one of my favorite people.... Miss Emily Reed (sister-in-law)!! This girl is the sweetest, kindest girl you will ever meet. Absolutely beautiful inside and out and wise beyond her years.

~When my husband (Emily's older brother) was deployed to Afghanistan for a year she came to live with me and my 1 1/2 year old daughter to help out. She transferred from her job at Starbucks straight to the one close by our house. Even though we had to get used to living with each other we had a blast! Lots of bonding emotionally and growing together. So when it was time for her 21st birthday I had to something really special for her! I decided to hide 21 presents around the house and give her (nicely decorated) clues each day leading up to her birthday to match the theme of her birthday. Which was peacocks, so blues, purples, green and gold it was fun! So among those presents was a special photo session of just her! Her birthday was in June, however we didn't get around to doing the pictures til September. We also had only a short amount of time to do them too. But I think they came out great. She looks gorgeous!! So here she is ladies and 'gents Miss Emily Reed!!!~

 

This is definitely my favorite!!

Emily is now currently in Morocco with a team from YWAM (Youth. With. A. Mission) witnessing to the people there about God! We are very proud of her! If you would like to read about her journey or support her financially, here is a link to her blog. http://emilyjreed.blogspot.com/
