We almost thought we were going to get a spring snow shoot. But the flurries were so elusive and flurried that we never seemed to get them in our shots. Even so, I’m loving what came out of this session. Miss Em is wearing new arrivals from Dare Boutique in Evergreen (also in Denver) and Marian was our hair stylist, Sasha was our makeup artist. Both Marian and Sasha can be found at Alpine Ridge Salon & Spa. I love Emily’s range of expressions and looks in these series of images. She looks like different famous actresses – it changes from image to image. What do you think? As always, I love to hear your thoughts – comment below! xo,...
I have two kids that attend the Montessori school here in Evergreen and it’s the first school/child care place I’ve taken them where I feel really good leaving them to have a few hours without me. And it’s not just a matter of caring for basic needs. They’re flourishing and becoming little independent people that can clean up after they eat, hang their coats and kindly take turns. It’s pretty amazing to witness the change. Miracles can and do happen. And at the head of this magical place, you’ll find Beth Heller. My 4-year-old is certain that Beth is a fairy princess, which is an understandable mistake. She fits the bill with her effervescent personality, great smile and excellent fashion sense. She’s a natural with our children and she also has some great ideas about education and supports new ways to learn. You can read some of Beth’s thoughtful articles on education HERE. You can learn more about Montessori School of Evergreen HERE. We photographed Beth in a few locations around the Troutdale Campus. I love photographing in there – beautiful light, fun colors and textures and patterns, and many cute kids, hard at work. xo,...
Our Miss Leah is winding up her senior year at D’Evelyn High School and in the fall will be heading to a small university in Iowa. It’s sad to see these great girls go, but at the same time, so excellent to see them grow and take on the new challenges of life. I’m excited to see where the next few years take Leah! Some of us are forever nostalgic and need to hold onto the moment. For those who need to cling, here’s a look-back at Leah’s highlight reel from her senior portrait sessions:...
Jani radiates a warm confidence – she’s the first one to come up and introduce herself at a gathering (this is exactly how I met her!). Her firm-grip handshake tells the story of her ability to connect and to be genuine and compassionate. Jani is a life coach, who calls on her lifetime of experience and the wisdom gained through her own transformation to inspire and encourage her clients. Jani was recently featured in the Evergreen publication, JustAroundHere.com. It’s a great write-up and I’m not going to attempt to out-write a writer, but I will share with you some of my favorite photos from our session! Please comment below and say “hi” to Jani. You can find out more details on working with Jani and upcoming workshops at her website, LoveLightTLC.com xo,...
Mary is one of those people who immediately makes you feel comfortable, like an old friend where you pick up a fun conversation with no effort. It makes sense that Mary is in a field where she is helping people. She helps you break through mental blocks and find and live your dreams. Pretty darn amazing. I’m so glad to have met another great person in Evergreen! You can learn more about Mary and see how she can help you find your path to success at her website: TapIntoAction.com Through Mary, I also met her husband Bruce, who is an amazing acupuncturist. He saved me from some incredible pain from a shoulder injury (these cameras get HEAVY!). I highly recommend him! You can find him sharing an office suite with Mary – these two are an adorable couple. Check out Bruce’s website here: 7MountainsAcupuncture.com xo,...
The Farm Credit National Communications team knows how to do it right. They balance an incredible work ethic with time for fun team activities. Their recent headshot session at our studio was no exception. They made it a Ladies Day Out and had a great time, but still managed to do quite a bit of work in the middle of it. They love what they do, they highly respect the other members of their team and they have exceptional abilities in accessorizing. Sounds perfect to me! 🙂 Check out some recent images from our session below and those from my previous post. And learn more about the cool stuff Farm Credit does here: Farm Credit Network Website. Hair and makeup by Jennifer Ngo. It’s time for a new headshot, isn’t it?… Come see me!!...

I recently had these lovely ladies in front of my lens. An adorable mother-daughter team, I was delighted to work with them. And, even more special, Michele was a VIP customer coming from Le Boudoir, a boutique shop in Evergreen, that carries all sorts of wonderful items to help bring out your more feminine features. They carry high quality lingerie, designer clothing and very cute workout gear. Please enjoy some images of the ladies from their session. And please join us for Michele’s big unveiling party at Le Boudoir on Saturday, June 22nd! We’ll be showing off – for the first time – Michele’s portrait that will be displayed in Le Boudoir! So exciting to make this a big event. Drinks and refreshments will be served. There will be event-only balloon-pop discounts – this is HUGE! See you there! Michele has amazing energy and a contagious smile. And killer blue eyes… Michele is wearing outfits from Le Boudoir. Are you surprised? I was really impressed with all their variety. Come and play with us on Saturday! It will be a fantastic opportunity to shop at leisure and to enjoy event-only discounts on must-have items! And this black top… LOVE! And if she weren’t cute enough all by herself… add to the mix her lil’ Miss Madison! And one more of the sweet pair. Please join us this Saturday at Le Boudoir in...
I’m totally thrilled to introduce my Evergreen High School senior model for the class of 2014. Derrien Riggio, currently a junior at EHS, loves to hike and play competitive volleyball and hang out with friends. Her favorite subjects to study are anatomy and biology, which will serve her well since she’d like to be a nurse (an ER nurse!). She’d like to use her nursing skills to travel the world doing medical relief work. How awesome is that? She loves her Evergreen town and high school community and the small-town feel – you know everybody you meet. Derrien has already travelled to many places in and out of the country. She’s been to Mexico, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, and to her favorite – Costa Rica. After she graduates from EHS, she hopes to study locally at either Regis University or University of Colorado at Denver. At her 10-year high school reunion, she’s planning to be living back in Evergreen, working as an ER nurse, with a family and still traveling the world. Love it! (Here is MY favorite image from our winter shoot… It was COLD – Derrien is a total trooper. A true model. ) And here are a few more favorites from our shoot. I’d like to give a special thanks to Dare Boutique in Evergreen. They styled outfits for us and gave us a wonderful experience at their shop. Their service and expertise are fantastic. They give solid advice and have a good eye for what looks good on different body types and age-appropriate trends. Be sure to like them on...
Last Friday we hosted a fundraiser at the studio, taking head shot images of participants, with 100% of session fees going towards the Kyrie Foundation. We had a great turnout of generous folks and we had a really great time. It was so much fun to photograph and to raise funds for such a great cause. I’d like to give an extra big thank you to my hair and makeup artist, Karinna Wurth, who donated her time and talents to give some extra pampering to those who wanted it. We know how to live it up over here! Our event raised over $300, which is a very small drop in the big bucket of need, but it is definitely a step in the right direction. Along with raising dollars, my goal is to raise awareness of pediatric brain cancer and for the Kyrie Foundation, and their fight to find preventions and a cure. Visit the Kyrie Foundation online to learn more and to make your tax-deductible donation. click: Kyrie Foundation Website Thanks again!!...
