The New Sports Portrait

admin — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 17:17:00 +0000

Athletes, don’t want to just wear your letterman jacket standing next to a tree? Senior portraits are about capturing you, your talent and athleticism. We want to create sports portraits that aren’t posed. So, bring us your A game. Let us create something unique and amazing for you…sports is our specialty! Thanks to Dezmon, Dominic, Emily, Jo Jo, Jordan, Kori, Richard and Tyler for helping us create such great images. We create unique photos of every sport!

We bring out your inner beast!

Ballet Interpretations

admin — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 16:10:45 +0000

Okay, I admit it. I love to shoot ballet pictures. And aside from gymnastic photos because my daughter is in gymnastics, I could shoot nothing but ballet. There are just so many creative options that all look beautiful. It’s hard to shoot a bad picture :). Lauren is one of our HS seniors this year and although we did some of our traditional urban fashion shots, it was ballet outfits that made my day even better.

To be fair, it’s also hard to shoot a bad picture of Lauren. Anyway, here was the rest of our evening!

Downtown track

admin — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 02:51:22 +0000

I absolutely love senior photography. You meet the most interesting, driven and amazing kids. Can I call them kids? Sure I can, I’m old :). Kori is a track star at Creek. He made it to national’s this year. The obvious thing would have been to bring him to a track and shoot some common track action shots. But as you know, we hate the obvious! We made him jump into his spandex track suit and try to capture a bit of his essence downtown.

The orange shoes were too cool to pass up to. I have a new appreciation for track uniforms. They kind of look like super hero outfits. I can’t wait to see what the next athlete we shoot is. Thanks Kori for a great shoot and we’ll finish up the other half of your shoot in a few days!

Catching up…Leanne’s photoshoot

admin — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 03:54:59 +0000

We actually shot this a couple months ago, but things have been so crazy, I’m backed up on posting some of our recent shoots. Good news and bad news I guess. Anway, Leanne is one of our Northern Colorado Seniors…we seem to get a lot from up north and out east. Tall, beautiful and fashionable is a tough combination.

We really went out for some fashion images here, let us know what you think. Short text for now, probably just mostly pictures for a while, so we can work off the summer backlog. Lot’s of interesting stuff coming up, stay tuned.

Louisa’s photoshoot(s)

admin — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 17:27:20 +0000

We had the amazing pleasure of shooting with Louisa a couple times this spring. A senior at Monarch, Louisa is a very edgy, creative senior. She actually is a photographer herself and quite the author. I got a chance to read a couple of her pieces and they were extremely insightful and beyond her years as just a HS senior.

When you look at her, she reminds me of a young Audrey Hepburn. Very classic beauty. She has such a strong sense of fashion and puts together a lot of unique outfits and looks.

We also did some studio work. Louisa looks like she just walked onto the cover of 17 magazine. The pants were actually resewn by her to get that cool fashiony look. We actually have some more shoots with Louisa coming up, so stay tuned. She posed as well as any of the professional models I’ve shot with and it was hard to get a bad picture :).

When Senior Portraits turns to Model Portfolios

admin — Mon, 03 May 2010 15:16:27 +0000

With a scholarship under her belt for this fall playing Volleyball, Taylor decided to take her senior pictures with us and turn them into her zed card for modeling. We help put together he photos in our standard templates and order up her cards. At 6′ tall, Taylor is tall enough for just about any type of modeling and her all American looks should get her attention. Good luck to Taylor with her modeling career too! Our pictures aren’t canned senior pictures, we can turn any of our shoots easily into your modeling portfolio for those seniors who want to explore modeling. Let us help you launch your modeling image right. Several of our clients have been signed with Donna Baldwin locally and national agencies in NY and LA.

Jo Jo Hayden (Senior Photos)

admin — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 20:46:58 +0000

Our daughter attends Gymnastics Unlimited up north. We got to know Jo Jo because her little sister, Lydia, is on Echo’s team. I had been wanting to offer more dramatic sports photos for our local HS athletes and wow, did we find one! Jo Jo just qualified for nationals on team. Nationals are in early May.

She was also named the Colorado Gymnast of the year at the Colorado State meet we went to see. Congrats to Jo Jo for such a great year. Give us a call if you want sports photos that aren’t you posing with with a ball :). We try to capture the true athlete, the grace, power and ability in each athlete.
