Aaron

Aaron is a friend of one of my friends who came to Colorado for a week to visit CU-Denver. He will be transferring to this campus this fall all the way from Valparaiso, Indiana! Mel and I decided to take a bit of a vaca weekend and joined him in Denver during his scholarship interviews on the campus. After doing so, we did a quick model shoot for Aaron before he got back on the plane at DIA to head back home. These are the result of our 10-minute quick session! Not bad... he might as well already be professional ;)

Model: Brytny (Night and Day)

Brytny and I decided to head out and do a little bit more experimentation. I had some ideas stirring in my head so she contacted me at the perfect time! Brytny is always the girl I run to when I need a quick model. She's just so easy to work with and is willing to do what it takes to get a good shot (though she hardly needs to try...). Here is the outcome of some of the best shots from our series of sessions. Hope you enjoy!

Model ~ Susanne

Susanne is one of my many facebook followers who often commented on my shared images with such uplifting words. I love getting the feedback from people who follow me and saying how beautiful my work is... it really means a LOT to me and it inspires me to give out even more mind-blowing work through the next session.

Anyway, so when Susanne emailed me with interest of doing a shoot, I was most definitely down! I want to give my clients the best that I can give them, so we worked through our schedules, figured out which day was best, which location was best, and we had so much fun and so much success that the shoot seriously lasted like... what, two and a half hours? It was a long while gone by in an instant.

Susanne hasn't modeled much before, but she is a beautiful woman and hardly needs to put in the effort.

I look forward to doing several other shoots in the future with her!

Model ~ Brytny

All thanks to the world of Photography, my good friend Brytny and I have come together once again after I was once known as "the girl at the bus stop." Story: when we were both in elementary school, Brytny lived down the street from me. So of course, we rode the same bus and the bus picked us up from the same spot. Well, I guess sweet little Brytny was lost and didn't know where to go, and I showed her where the bus picked us up, and I befriended this cute little blonde girl with glasses on the corner. I remember that, and so does she. How sweet this girl is. Now, we work together.. both to take photos, and I usually work with her whenever we both do modeling gigs at bridal expos for Style Bride (I'll have to post more about that later--we'll be doing one here in a few weeks, it's a TON of fun!!).

For months and months Brytny Marquez and I have been talking about getting together to do a shoot--even before I ever went to Nashville or ever decided to start taking this business seriously. So finally, out of the blue, we make an "official date" for a shoot.

For this shoot to be lurking around in my head for so long, we came up with several ideas. There was one spot in particular I wanted to take her, and it was to what seems to be an unfinished dam of some sort, or flood director behind CSU-Pueblo. We waited until sunset because I wanted to get some dramatic light shots.. and wow, was the outcome incredible!

Brytny was my second "serious" model that I've worked with, and she was incredible at posing. She was so willing to do anything that I asked her to, and she knew exactly what worked right and what looked best.

Take a gander at these pics, and expect more in the near future from this gorgeous girl!

And SORRY there are so many... I really could not choose!

Aliegh Shields Baumhardt - Model shoot

Ah, it has been so long since I posted anything! I apologize for such a late post. It has been busy busy busy. I'm going to school right now and am hoping to soon graduate with a Biology degree (LOVE biology and learning.. it's awesome). So I've been busy with school, work study, several shoots since then. I decided I might as well catch up with the most recent stuff and I'll post a blog with a few pics here and there of the in between shoots since then ;).

Anyway, I've been in Nashville the last week working with and learning from Sarah Barlow! It has been an amazing experience and I am learning a lot not only about photography, but myself and my business. How awesome has it been to be able to network with so many photographers across the nation and come together through doing the things we love. Check out Sarah's blog HERE!!

While here, we did a model shoot for Sarah's good friend, Aliegh Shields Baumhardt. She's a local musician in Nashville, working her way up! During the shoot, she mentioned that she used to have modeling as a serious consideration for a career, but her mind was focused on other things. By her performance during the shoot, I would definitely recommend her as a professional MODEL! She was amazing, and the shots came out great. Check them out!

Anyway, working on some business stuff right now with Sarah. I have some other new pics that I will be posting very soon so keep checking up on that! Hope everyone has an awesome week :) ENJOY
