Alyssa’s a bubbly and funny high school senior who enjoys science and cheerleading. She’s looking to pursue a career in medicine after finishing her senior year at Sand Creek High School in the Spring. Her session portraits were taken in Cheyenne Canyon, Monument Valley Park, and at Sand Creek High School. Enjoy a handful of our favorites, and best wishes for an awesome senior year, Alyssa!

The Ullmanns came to us for a great family portrait session and also added a yearbook session for their son who is a senior this year at Air Academy High School. We want to give kudos to this family for putting thought into their attire for their session – the results are great portraits with a classic, timeless look and great cohesion. Planning well for the attire for the session does make a difference! We have really enjoyed getting to know this family, and Red Rock Canyon is a great location for families excited to do an easy hike during the session and have great variety of settings. And thanks to the rains we have had this summer, there’s water again in the quarry!

I love the pictures of my handsome nephews and sister and brother-in-law.
These are fabulous photographs! My cousin and her family look wonderful set in such beautiful scenery. My favorite is the one where they are seated on a rock. Excellent photography & great subjects!!
Nicole is an outgoing and creative high school senior with a great sense of humor. Her family is newer to the Colorado Springs area, and in the past she’s been active with swimming and crew. This Cheyenne Mountain High School senior wanted natural, Colorado landscapes and fields as elements in her senior pictures, so Cheyenne Canyon and Stratton Open Space were great locations for her. Nicole plans to pursue a career as an elementary school teacher. Enjoy senior year, Nicole!!

Thank you both for everything. You both are amazingly talented and your creativity is unmatched in the industry. I appreciate how professional and patient you both were and are during the session itself as well as throughout the follow up meeting and communications. Best of wishes for continued success in your business and family life.
We’ve really enjoyed photographing Andrew, especially since we’ve known his mom for a handful of years now! Andrew is a high-achieving, accomplished high school senior who has a sharp sense of style and plays both clarinet and saxophone. He plays in both Rampart High School’s marching band and jazz band. He’s also athletic and loves mountain biking and running track. He loves to refuel with favorite food, mac n’ cheese (and who doesn’t love mac n’ cheese??). Andrew plans to attend college on the East Coast and study pre-med. Enjoy senior year, Andrew!!
And for any of you looking to improve your health or have natural cleaning solutions for your home, Andrew’s mom, Susan, is a fantastic consultant for Shaklee. You can contact her through her website!

Thanks, Lindsay. It was a pleasure working with both you and Jonathan. One thing I was very grateful to Jon for was his knowledge of the weather and lighting conditions, and how he continued with the session beyond where I would have thought it was getting too dark. He told us we were fine, and the results are evidence that he was right. No need to have rescheduled! And Lindsay, your pre-session meeting with us made the session planning a breeze (What to bring? Where to meet?) and our time with Jonathan more efficient. You are a true professional.
Congratulations to these two Big Sisters on the arrival of their baby brother! This family returned to us for a session to capture newborn portraits, but more importantly, some precious early moments between these three siblings. Beautiful memories are captured in their portraits from the session, and it’s clear newborn Dylan is loved!
Photography Tip: Sessions with little kids are often chaotic! The benefits of hiring a professional photographer are not only that of freeing the parent’s focus away from trying to take pictures but also bringing in a neutral party. As a parent (and we totally do this too with our own kids!), it’s easy to have huge expectations for how well your kids will behave. As a professional dealing with toddlers all the time, Jon brings in pretty accurate expectations, and you can be fairly certain not to be the most chaotic session he’s ever encountered. Your session might feel crazy and impossible to you, but for Jon, it’s just another session with little kids, and he’s getting great images no matter how it feels at the time.
