Such an amazing day up in Estes Park for my last family photography clinic of the year. 🧡🍂

The group of photographers was incredible—supportive, encouraging, and just genuinely happy to create alongside each other. And the families were absolutely unbelievable. So sweet, so much fun, and honestly just adorable to watch these young families interact with each other surrounded by the gorgeous Colorado mountains. 🍁🏔️

A huge thank you to Shannon McTighe Photography and Four Hens Photography for putting together such a wonderful clinic. Such a beautiful day to learn, create, and connect. 🧡

There is something extra special about photographing a family when you can feel how much they genuinely enjoy being together. 🤎

I had the opportunity to photograph this beautiful family during another educational shoot in Boulder, and their little guy absolutely stole the show. The weather was definitely not on our side that day, but you would never know it from these photos. He was such a trooper — and I’m officially putting him in the running for best two-year-old I’ve ever had in front of my camera. 😂 He handled everything like a tiny professional and gave us the sweetest moments.

One of my favorite parts of this photography journey has been meeting other photographers along the way. So far, it has been an incredible group of talented women who have been genuine, encouraging, and incredibly supportive of one another. There’s something pretty great about being around people who want to learn, create, and help each other grow.

A huge thank you to Shannon McTighe Photography and Liz DeVinny Photography for putting together another wonderful educational shoot and for being so generous with your knowledge. I’ve loved every minute of learning alongside this group.

And yes — Random Ass Photography really does get its name from the rescued donkeys, our original “random asses,” who inspired the name and keep the photography connected to a cause. 🤎

There was so much joy in this session. 🍂🤎

Watching the way these kiddos loved on each other, laughed together, and naturally connected with their family was such a beautiful thing to witness. Nothing felt forced — it was just real, warm, and full of life.

And somehow the wild Colorado weather made it even better. We had wind, dark clouds, rain nearby, and even had to pause for some graupel — those soft little ice pellets that look a bit like tiny hailstones.

The fall colors, the stormy sky, the soft light, and this family together made the whole evening feel absolutely breathtaking. 🍁✨

This was one of those shoots where the scenery, the weather, and the people all came together in such a special way.

A huge thank-you to Shannon McTighe and Liz Divinny for putting together such a wonderful fall family shootout. It was such a beautiful opportunity to create, connect, and photograph in such an incredible setting. 🍂

What an incredible experience! I had the opportunity to spend time with a wonderful group of talented photographers, learning from some truly amazing photographers whose work I deeply admire.

Two beautiful families joined us for a hands-on photography clinic in the mountains outside Boulder—and the setting could not have been more picturesque. Between the scenery, the families and all of the creative energy, it was such an inspiring day.

I learned so much, met some fantastic people and created images I am incredibly excited about. I cannot wait to share them with you! 💛

🚨 Okay… we have been DYING to share this one! 🤠✨

Today is officially DAY ONE of turning an old horse trailer into something completely different…

👗 A MOBILE DRESSING ROOM + CLIENT WARDROBE for The Random Ranch Photography Studio! 👢📸

We have so many clients who bring multiple outfits to their sessions—and we also have a growing client wardrobe full of hats, jewelry, accessories, clothing and all the fun little details that can completely change a look.

So we thought… why not create an entire space for it?!

When this horse trailer conversion is finished, our clients will have a dedicated place to change outfits, browse pieces from our client wardrobe, grab a hat or some jewelry, and make getting ready part of the whole photography experience here at The Random Ranch Photography Studio.

And seriously… have you ever seen a photography studio with a horse trailer dressing room?! 😂🤠 We haven’t! This might be one of our craziest ideas yet—and we are SO excited about it.

This video is only DAY ONE, so there is a LOT more coming. We cannot wait to show you the finished trailer and all the details we have planned for inside.

✨ Stay tuned for the transformation! ✨

What. A. Night. 🤎📸

This past weekend, Random A Photography had the absolute pleasure of photographing the Douglas Land Conservancy fundraiser, and I left this one with such a full heart.

We were blessed with amazing weather, but honestly, the PEOPLE were the best part. What an incredibly kind, fun, generous group! Everyone was dressed to the nines, full of personality, and ready to have a good time. I truly felt like I could have hung out with this crew all night. 😂🤎

And the trailer scene was a HUGE hit! 🤠 People came back two, three, and even more times for photos. Watching everyone grab their friends, laugh, get silly, and come back for “just one more” was so much fun.

Then came the bidding… WOW. The generosity in that room was incredible. I felt like Speedy Gonzales with a camera trying to catch all those paddles going up! 😂 What an amazing show of support for Douglas Land Conservancy and the work they do for our county.

I was also incredibly lucky to have my daughter there assisting me. She volunteered her time, worked her tushie off right alongside me, and was an absolute gift on such a busy night. Best of all, she had a blast, too. 🤎

We left tired, grateful, and smiling.

Thank you, Douglas Land Conservancy, for trusting Random Ass Photography to capture such a special evening. And thank you to all of the wonderful people who made us laugh, jumped in front of the camera, came back for another photo, raised a paddle, volunteered, donated, and made us feel so welcome.

We genuinely had SO much fun with all of you. 🤎

🖤 Can you spot the secret heart?

I didn’t even notice it when I took this photo. It wasn’t until I was editing that I saw it—and now I can’t unsee it. 🥹

There’s a tiny, perfectly placed heart hiding in this image, right in the middle of this sweet connection between a girl and her horse. Sometimes the little details you never planned end up being the most special part of a photograph. ❤️🐴

Now I need your vote because I genuinely can’t decide…

BLACK & WHITE 🖤🤍 or COLOR 🤎?

There’s something about the black and white that pulls me straight to their eyes and that connection—but I love the warmth and detail in the color version too.

👇 Which one would you choose? And did you find the heart before I told you there was one?

There’s something special about photographing twin sisters with a horse they love. 🤎

And while editing this series, I realized something about the way I approach my work:

I don’t edit for Instagram. I edit for the wall.

Trends come and go, but when I’m editing, I’m thinking about artwork.

Maybe it’s my interior design background, but I see these photographs printed large, on canvas, beautifully matted and framed — becoming part of a home instead of simply another image in a social media feed.

That’s why I intentionally gave this series a soft, matte, editorial feel. I want to create photographs that still feel like art long after a trend has passed.

I wish I could share every image from this shoot, but this is just a small handful. There are so many I love.

Twin sisters. One horse. Photographs made for more than a screen.

These gorgeous twins had never done a photoshoot together before, and WOW — they absolutely crushed it! 🎪✨📸 They were stunning, full of personality, and seriously SO much fun to work with. 🎠🎡❤️

I photographed these two during an incredible photography workshop in Loveland, Colorado, and it was literally one of the BEST and most fun nights ever! 🎡🎟️🍿🎪✨

The carnival lights 🎡, the energy 🎟️, the outfits 🎠, and these TWO! 🤩📸 Everything came together for such a fun, unforgettable session.
