I’m not sure if I’d say hanging with a 3 year old and 6 month old is a “fun” backpacking trip. But it was great to get away and unplug for 3 days in the mountains of Colorado. And of course, no trip would be complete without a requisite stock shoot. Here’s one of my favorites.

I had the good fortune of working with a past wedding client a few weeks back to take pictures of their beautiful baby daughter. Below are a few of my favs.

Jennifer Lee and Kara Roy and run down Mountain Avenue during our October snowstorm. Love the dedication ladies.

Gotta love the snow days! I looked out the window late one night and oh my goodness, it was coming down. I emailed a few friends and what you know we had a photo shoot. Both are super athletes . . .

Jenifer Lee and Kara Roy (Olympic Trials Qualifier in the Marathon) met me and Tuscan for a 20 minute shoot.

Kara Roy extraordinaire! She ran in the last Olympic Trials for the Marathon. As you can see she’s dedicated . . .

By the end my fingers were frozen and screaming for warmth, but I think we made it a wrap with a few great frames.

Next to Starbucks. 1/2 caff Grande Mocha for my wife (she’ll do anything for a Mocha). Pick her up on lunch break and then to a local park.  Oh what’d you know, Tuscan is ready for the snow too . . . . . . . .

Marcie and Tuscan in the snow.

Tuscan hated it. It was really windy, but again a few successful frames. Gotta love the snow. Weeks later my fingers work again and so I’m finally typing this post.

And you always need an ending frame.

It was windy and cold . . . (just like Gunnison). The wind did catch one 1 umbrella and made it go tumbling through the meadow. I chased it for a 1/4 mile, but it eventually landed in raging torrent of a river - never to be seen again. Poor umbrella.

And it one natural light shot of the family.

I’m a messy eater. But I don’t hold a candle to my 10 month old son. We took baby food, baby spoons and prepared meticulously. Tuscan in his high chair, baby food ready we set-out for the “baby eating” shoot.

Oh and what eating session would be complete without a sippy cup? Yup, this kid knows how to eat and make a mess while doing it.

Dad, I love the sippy cup.

Well, all photo session have to end.

This last photo? Does it  remind you of that painting . . . oh by who was that guy . . . .

Inspired by Michelangelo. No this was NOT photoshoped.

I wanted to work on some point of view (POV) photography shots. So, the gang headed to the local park in Fort Collins for a quick photo shoot.I had this elaborate idea . . . well my clamp didn’t work with the swing. So these were all hand-held shots mimicking the motion of the swing. So much fun! Here’s my favorite three.

Tuscan loving the swing!

Really I think he might have had more fun than we did.

And finally we’d hogged the swing for too long . . . time to head home.

Dad? Do we really have to go?

The Talamantes family decided to start the New Year (literally) with a family portrait. Lupe, Juan and four beautiful girls.  We had a fun day at the park, throwing leaves, playing in the playground, and doing some sunglass shots under a canopy of oak trees.
