The Amoroso Family | Family Portraits in Garden of the Gods

This is one of those families that feel like friends from the moment we meet.  We’ve had so much fun getting to know them from the pre-session consultation to the session and then helping them choose the art for their home.  We share many common interests and values – including hockey, school, and faith – and have just been touched to be the ones to create their first family portraits!  They chose Garden of the Gods and took Jon to the exact place where they’d exchanged wedding vows – super special and a neat part of the unique story in their portraits.

Here’s some of what they shared in an email to us recently:

We wanted to let you know how much we treasure our photos and the experience both of you provided. Neither of us are terribly comfortable in front of the camera, but Jon put us right at ease and was able to get some amazing shots. Additionally, he was super patient with our son, which is a big plus.  We cannot tell you how appreciative we are of your willingness to reschedule us several times due to sickness, weather, and a tragic haircut.  Finally, the selection process was a true pleasure. It was wonderful to get to view the photos and utilize your software so we would know exactly how our selection was going to look in our living room. You were very patient with us during this process and we simply couldn’t be happier with the results.  Again, thank you so much for all of your hard work. We can’t wait to work with you both again in the future!

Elisa | Air Academy High School Senior Portraits | Class of 2015

Elisa describes herself as fun, artistic, and a little goofy.  She loves laughter and fun.  She’s active with Air Academy High School’s marching band where she’s in color guard.  She had a great time with our longer Senior Experience senior pictures session and chose the locations of Manitou Springs, Cheyenne Canyon, and Monument Valley Park.  Enjoy the rest of senior year, Elisa, and beginning college next Fall – the time’s going to go by so fast!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

We love Thanksgiving and setting aside a day for reflecting on all the things in life for which we’re grateful!  Like so many of you, Faith and Family top our list of “things we’re thankful for.”  We are also continually and deeply thankful for our photography business and the clients who come to us each year.  Know that you are valued and appreciated beyond what our words can express.  May you enjoy a day surrounded by family and with a heart of thankfulness.

We thought it fitting on Thanksgiving to share some of our own family portraits from just a few weeks ago in Cheyenne Canon.  We’re passionate about photography and the legacy of great portraits, and we’re not just wanting that for our clients – we do it for ourselves.  And after we photograph our family, we sit down and choose our favorites and then order wall art, cards, and albums – just as we do with our client families and using the same great prints and products offered to our client families.  Our business is a reflection of us and a reflection of what we value – it’s our best and we’re so thankful for the many families who choose us and our photography for their own families each year.

– Jon & Lindsay

Jake | Doherty High School Senior Portraits | Class of 2015

Jake’s family is a returning family from a couple years ago when we photographed his older brother’s senior portraits.  We always love seeing family’s return to us!  Jake is an outgoing, friendly high school senior who loves his truck (that might be an understatement!!).  When he’s not working, he enjoys the outdoors and chose Cheyenne Canon and Gold Camp Road for his locations.  He added our After Dark upgrade to his session, and that always gives a completely different set of portraits from a session.  Jake plans to go into law enforcement after graduation this Spring!

The Whiteway Family | Family Portraits in Red Rock Canyon

The Whiteway Family was referred to us by another family we’ve photographed over the years, and we had such a great time with them!  With a young and active toddler, this was a session that felt chaotic and had rough moments, but when you’re with a professional photographer, great portraits are being made…even if it feels the very opposite!  Their session timed nicely with some fantastic autumn colors in Red Rock Canyon.  Here’s what they shared with us in an email about their experience:

I just wanted to write and tell you that I appreciate your care and the time you took to make our viewing experience a great one! From the slide show to the method of choosing and you adding your expertise I felt very comfortable and confident in the products we chose. Never have I experienced such customer service from a photography company.   Additionally somehow Jon was able to pull out some amazing shots even with a uncooperative toddler!  We will continue to use you for our future photography needs. Thanks again!
