I have been playing lately… and not just with my two little girls. I have been playing with film, and it has been such a wonderful exercise for me. And yes, I have been asked a million times “why would want to go backwards?”  And my answer is, that right now in my career AND in my life I feel as if I need to go backwards in order to go forwards. Sounds crazy, I know, but I need something to slow me down, to make me pause, to make me take the time to appreciate… Read More »

She might kill me for this… but this is how I still think of her. Here she is on our front step, holding our first born. Wow, where has the time gone? Fast forward six years and this darling little girl has grown into quite the beautiful young woman. Thank you for inviting me to take your senior portrait. It was so much fun! And thank you for being a babysitter & dog watcher extraordinaire!  We are so thankful for you. We can’t wait to see what you are up to next. All the best,… Read More »

What fun it is to see the evolution of a family, honestly it’s one of the best parts of my job! I was very fortunate to have the opportunity to photograph Lindsey & Jeff’s beautiful wedding at Ten Mile Station in Breckenridge and then when they contacted me last fall I was thrilled to hear that they were now living in Colorado and were expecting their first child. When we met in January for their maternity session, their family had already grown by one. Miss Annie dog was their first great addition. And now when we… Read More »

I can’t believe I have known this beauty for 12 years, it doesn’t seem possible…yet so much has happened within those 12 years that it makes it feel like a lifetime. This wonderful woman, Noel, has been my “hair girl” since I lived in Denver. And I still drive an hour each way so that she can work her magic- yes, she is THAT good- and I not only look forward to a great new hair do, I look forward to catching up with a dear friend. And then there is Arthur, this wonderful ball… Read More »

I’ll be honest, I was a little nervous to photograph twin girls. I love newborn shoots, but I also know that they don’t always go as smoothly planned, since the baby runs the show and you never know if you will get a sleepy day, a cranky day, a hungry day…and then double that with twins and you really have no idea what is in store. Well, I have to say that these darling girls made my job so easy. They were so sweet, sleepy and adorable. Since this twosome decided to come 8 weeks… Read More »

This darling family was incredible and put up with the wind that seems to accompany spring in Colorado!  The kids were amazing and patient, and luckily towards the end we had a few quiet moments with out the wind gusting. Thanks so much for playing in the natural grasses and spending the evening with me. I am still amazed at how well behaved your sweet kids were. (Please share your secrets!) All the best, Rachel      

Ah three months… just when they start to smile, interact and hopefully sleep a little more!  This cutie was a star during his three month shoot, and I think he is already daydreaming about the ice hockey games in his future. Thank you for inviting me to photograph your little man! All the best, Rachel  

I have said it time and time again, that Thirsties Modern Cloth diapers are not only a great product, but a great company as well. It has been a real privilege to work on a fun & modern new brand launch for Thirsties. I love how they have incorporated lifestyle photography into their new catalog and new website. The new, beautiful Thirsties Catalog was designed by Jon Aguilera and Paul Jensen of One Tribe Creative, who did an incredible job of incorporating the lifestyle images into a clean & modern design. It is a great… Read More »
