Even photographers have a hard time making decisions; sometimes not being able to pick a favorite. Portraits have become a dying art especially with Photojournalism. The timeless portrait, the picture that shows who someone is. The picture of a person that family members hold on to show generation after generation. I have thought about the reason many photographers overlook the power of a great portrait and I think it is because it takes time to develop the skills to get a great portrait. Getting the subject to open up and to be comfortable with the camera. I believe a good portrait will always be cherished and the art of portrait photography is so important.
The weather is starting to get nice again and we are out shooting engagement sessions for our 2013 brides and grooms. I wanted to share a few images from Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. The light was beautiful with hints of golden tones. We have many more beautiful images to show but I thought these might peak your curiosity. These were all taken with film which really helped give the soft warm tones we were going for.

We had some nice weather this weekend and shot a few engagement sessions. I was testing out a new camera and I think they turned out nice. Angie was nice enough to be the model. I hope you enjoy
Tom & Jill had a beautiful, traditional wedding at the Shove Chapel in Colorado Springs. After the wedding ceremony they planned for some extra time before their reception for pictures. Of course we love it when a couple loves pictures as much as we do and plans for hours of them around such a beautiful place as Glen Eyrie Castle. This beautiful stone castle is surrounded by trees, wildlife and tall glass windows…..
