Some sessions feel like a continuation of a story already in motion. Jenn and Brandon invited me to capture their maternity photos months before Levi was born, so stepping into their home for his newborn session felt natural and connected. We began with sunrise in the tall grasses of a nearby park, joined by their sweet pup Aro, before moving into the cozy corners of their home.

This session shows why in-home newborn photography is such a powerful way to capture the earliest days of life, authentic, calm, and rooted in the spaces families already love. From the golden light of morning to the layered details of their home, every moment reflected the beauty of this new chapter together.

Step inside Rose of the West Tattoo, a vibrant and eclectic studio in Downtown Colorado Springs, where artistry and passion come together. In this branding session, I captured the creative energy of Lauren and her talented team during their Friday the 13th event. From one-of-a-kind tattoos to bold traditional flash art, every inch of this studio tells a story of individuality and artistic expression. Dive into the heart of Rose of the West and discover why this tattoo studio is a true gem in Colorado Springs.

Emily and Eli, you two are the sweetest humans and I am so glad that you picked me to document your sibling love. Eli is my daughter, Emma’s best friend. Eli is so special to me, like my own child. Can I be your surrogate mama? You can’t say no. These two peeps have got this siblinghood thing down. I mean, you cannot look through this gallery and tell me that they don’t like each other. More smiling and laughs than going to the damn amusement park.

Emily had been wanting to schedule something with Eli for a while and my daughter finally sent me a “business inquiry” for Emily, haha. I was totally down and we made it happen. I don’t typically shoot downtown Colorado Springs but this really fits them and their personalities to a T. It was perfect, just like them. Thanks for sharing your rawness with me. Your joy with me. Yourselves with me. I love you both with all my heart.
