Colorado Springs Wedding and Family Photographers: Real Photography

two little monkeys

These are from an old session--but I still love them!  Two little monkeys jumping on the bed...

Two little monkey jumping on the bed...these are old--from a session two months ago.  But I still love them. 

birthday buddies

This little guy and I are not only cousins, we're birthday buddies.  We share the same birthday...just nineteen years apart.  While in Seattle, I shot a session with my extended family, but they've been having to patiently await any sneak peeks, since my clients are first in line.  Sorry guys!

So here's one of my birthday buddy...

And his baby sister.  Who came just days from being my guy's birthday buddy!

I even snatched a couple of her smiling...though I'm pretty sure she would deny it.  To prove otherwise...

(There should be zero doubt now about which side of the family my little one's bluer than blue eyes come from!)

Honey, I shrunk the kids

Is it just me, or does little Aidan look like he's been reduced to cricket-height?

Gotta love the evergreen state.  I had the pleasure of photographing Aidan at a session in Seattle.  More fun GREEN shots to come.

happy

I'd been very nervous about this session, because I knew that Aimee's oldest son was autistic, and I wasn't sure if I'd be able to get good portraits of him.  I shouldn't have been worried, though--he's a very sweet boy, who, after a little time, was even flashing some smiles. 

When I got home and saw these on my computer, I was thrilled and I'm happy to say that Aimee was, too!  Logan has never had a professional portrait taken before, so these are his first!

a good big brother

I was so impressed with Nathan at our session.  He is such a good big brother to his baby sister, and wonderfully caring with his autistic older brother.  Not to mention the fact that he is a very good model...all it took was one photo to get this:

Here he is in action...

 

the face of surprise

This is what happens when boys hug their big sisters with enough gusto to knock them over.

if looks could kill...

If looks could kill, she would be so dead.  As well as being completely adorable, these two were fun, fun, fun.  I'll probably share more from their session as the week goes on.  They made me smile--lots of love in that family!

little charmer

This little man is gonna be a heart breaker.

And if you think he's cute, you should see how beautiful his sister is!  (and oh-my-gosh I would kill for her hair)  :)

a sneaky one

It was a shoot for just the twins, but when I saw father and son engaged in watching the water fountain, I was glad I had my camera at the ready!

double trouble

The secret to breaking through to a toddler's happy place is the magic bubble blower.  This little girl really wasn't sure about me or my picture-taking-ways until she saw the bubbles.  And then she just didn't care so much.

This set of two year old twins kept me on my toes.  The sweaters used to be owned by their mother and uncle and were hand knit by their grandmother (or great-grandmother--I can't remember).  I love it when the clothing is a special family treasure! 

it's a good thing he was so naturally photogenic

We had to rush through this little guy's session because of an incoming thunderstorm.  His last session had to be rescheduled because of rain, so we weren't about to let that happen again!  He was happy and naturally adorable that we were able to knock out his session in 15 minutes--just in time for the rain to start falling.  I couldn't believe we managed it!

more in manitou

Sneak peeks from my session this morning...

Some crazy bright color on this next one...

I love this next one--such sweet love coming from the little one!

She looks so much like her mom in this one that it freaks me out a little!

boys and nature

They do love to explore and examine everything!
