Emma [Colorado Senior Session]

Earlier this month I flew to Colorado to photograph this lovely lady’s senior session. To say I was ecstatic about this opportunity is an understatement.  The weather was unpredictable and stormy, so Emma and I woke up at an ungodly hour (to beat the rain!) two different days. We only had a brief time at GARDEN OF THE GODS (!!!) until it started down pouring, but I’m thrilled with those images. Can we please notice her amazing Anthropologie wardrobe in all of these photos??  This is one stylish and classy teenager, y’all! After each conversation I have with Emma, I’m always blown away by her maturity and zeal for living a good story. I’ve known her since she was a toddler and am so proud of who she has become.

She’s an absolute gem with a heart that’s bursting with love for others. Her extroverted, friendly nature puts people at ease as soon as she meets them. Emma is incredibly talented: captain of the track team (she broke the discus school record from 12 years ago!), active on the cross-country team, leader of Fellowship of Christian Athletes, a member of National Honors Society, and a youth group leader at church. Emma is investigating colleges but plans on using a track scholarship and majoring in social work.

Enjoy this majestic scenery and the lovely Emma! First stop--Garden of the Gods. This one leaves me speechless. Just stunning, Emma! I'm swooning over these red rocks (also at Garden of the Gods) Day two: we discovered this neat barn structure and also strolled the grounds of the Broadmoor Hotel.  The early morning lighting was just perfect!
