but we loved playing with props to coordinate with her Alice in Wonderland nursery even more!!!

Snowy Family Photos | Colorado

I love fall, but there is just something so magical about snow.  You can go to sleep in one kind of world and wake up to find yourself in another enchanting sparkly snow covered world!  A world where bundling up and playing outside with rosy cheeks is simply exhilarating.  And a cup of hot cocoa with marshmallows and family is the perfect cozy ending to your snowy adventure. 

Looking back at this session from last November makes me want to capture that snowy enchantment with my family in photos!  Just thinking about it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside!

6 Month Baby Plan Session | Highlands Ranch Mansion | Highlands Ranch, Colorado

We cannot believe William is 6 months old already!  We fall in love with those big, beautiful eyes every time we see this sweet boy!  

We just absolutely love this roly-poly phase...and how they just light up with the discovery of every new thing...like their toes!
We had a fun session at the gorgeous Highlands Ranch mansion with mom and big sister!  Love big sister's dress...all the ruffles and detail!


Snowy Family Fall Mini Session | Columbine Open Space | Castle Rock, Colorado

A red barn.  A chunky scarf!  Polka dot tights!  
A light dusting of snow...the first sign of the holidays!
Oh it makes my heart so warm and excited for cozy days by the fire...nights looking at Christmas lights...and just spending time with family!
Doesn't this photo shoot just make you want to grab a scarf and a blanket and snuggle up?!  
Columbine Open Space with that red barn and rustic little bridge is just the perfect spot for photos.
And of course fall in Colorado means snow!
We love braving the cold for a gorgeous Colorado fall session!

Family Fall Session | Cottonwood Park | Parker, Colorado

We love bold, bright color and how the Colorado autumn foliage just pops in photos to make the perfect backdrop!  And yellow happens to be one of our favorite colors...so we are totally smitten with the leaves this time of year! 
We also love breaking out our sweaters and scarves and getting cozy this time of year!  Look at all these family snuggles!  So fun!

Fall Family Mini Session | Cottonwood Park | Parker, Colorado

"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a new flower."
-Albert Camus

Love this quote for the colors of fall!  The leaves are finally starting to really change, and it is gorgeous outside!  Early golden sunsets, crisp cool air, and yellow leaves mean fall has arrived in Colorado!  And we are enjoying every second of this cozy sweater & tall boots season!

We even made our first pumpkin pie of this fall this week!  The sweet smell of spicy cinnamon and cloves filled the house...the windows were open and we could hear the sound of the leaves rustling...be still our fall loving hearts!

Looking back at this family fall session from last year twirling in the sun at Cottonwood Park just made our hearts content and so excited to capture this golden sun with our family fall sessions this year!


Maternity Session | Cottonwood Park | Parker, Colorado

We love capturing the beauty of motherhood.
Just like the fleeting newborn stage, pregnancy only lasts a short time...
so we believe in taking photos to hold onto that beautiful stage of eager anticipation.

This maternity session took place at Cottonwood Park!  It was the perfect place to run around with big sister Ruby and get in some family time before baby brother arrives!
Mom is absolutely stunning.
 
And dad is super excited to have his little man here to watch some football!
We can't wait to meet Ruby's baby brother!

Newborn Session | In Studio | 7 Days New

Oh.my.goodness...meet sweet baby Ellery!
She came into the studio just 7 days new for her newborn session!
Those cheeks and that cute little nose!
We fell in love!

Mom is an avid cook and baker, so we just had to bring that passion into Ellery's photoshoot!



Pumpkin Painting

The street we live on in Highlands Ranch is amazing.  We have a 4th of July party, a Christmas hay ride, pre-trick or treating dinner,
and this year we are super excited to add a new event....
pumpkin painting!

It was great!  We gathered up our paints, bought a bunch of inexpensive paint brushes, and had kiddos BYOP...
Bring Your Own Pumpkin!
It was super fun to paint, snack on popcorn, and just watch the kids run around playing and laughing together!
 And the really funny thing was how quiet it got when everyone started concentrating on painting their pumpkin(s).  It was serious business.
 Yay for new fall traditions with friends and neighbors!
We absolutely LOVE this time of year!



Pink Cake Smash | Baby Plan | In Studio

Blake turned ONE!
And we believe in dressing up in gorgeously girly things like pink tutus and a birthday crown to celebrate!  Because life should be full of celebrations, laughter and fun.

We LOVE cake smash sessions, but add in a pennant banner, and a chalk board, a pink ombre cake,  those blue eyes and that smile, and we can hardly contain ourselves!
Before we got all sugary sweet with Blake's cake, we snapped a few family shots out on the golf course!  This happy girl is blessed with so much love!
