It has been a few years since we’ve had family photos taken. I don’t mind having the posed, formal portraits done, but I can do those myself with a tripod (see holiday card photo from last year). I came across a photographer who does travel sessions and has a unique artistic view point. Her ability to capture personalities is superb and the use of film over digital gives her photos an almost ethereal feel to them.
I asked her to come to Denver for a family session for us. I gave her several options for what we typically do as a family, and taking the train downtown to have frozen yogurt inspired her the most. I was so excited because it meant that we would capture so many of the elements of us as a family. Charlotte LOVES trains. I ride the train to/from work every day. We have frozen yogurt as a family every weekend. Chris and I go to downtown often for date nights. Cooper is enamored with the city.
Look how amazing they turned out! She captured us as a family so well and under some of the most challenging circumstances – mid-day light, lots and lots of people around, traffic/buses/businesses. I can’t wait to blow these up and put them on our wall to make a gallery of sorts.
(Thank you Nik.)
