This was an awesome session. I had so much fun doing an urban shoot. These kids were too cool for school. And the parents rocked!
And as we took our beautiful pictures in an old alley way, life went on behind us. Never a dull moment in Boulder!
They were freezing at this point and much happier when huddled together, but aren't these doors fabulous? I'm glad they hung in for this spot. 
This is my first session when I thought we might not all come out in one piece. There was just enough snow left to sled and it was SLICK. And of course, sledding is always much more fun when you're going backwards!
This has been an incredible year. I'm so excited to being doing exactly what I want to do. And I want to send a big THANK YOU to all of you. Thank you for your support, your business and your encouragement. I've been thinking back about old New Year's resolutions, remembering the year I was going to get a portfolio together, and then the next year when I again resolved to get a portfolio together. And then the year that I wanted to get paid to take a picture. Just once. I don't even think I had a resolution this year, except maybe to survive my wedding, and perhaps that was the best plan. Maybe resolutions hold you back or distract you from what you should really be doing. This year with no set intentions I bought a new camera, started shooting, built a website, and quit my job. I've either gone completely mad or I have finally fallen onto the right path. I can't wait to see what the next year will bring and how things will change...and change is always exciting, at least in my world. Life would be awfully mundane if you woke up the exact same person year after year. So I wish you all a Happy New Year and hope that next year will be even happier, more alive, and more inspiring than this one.
Life has a fascinating way of preventing you from doing all the things you really meant to do, such as blog posts, and instead making you do things you didn't really want to do at all. In the last week we've had the "pleasure" of buying a new vacuum (thank you Goldens), renting a saw...trust me, you don't want the details surrounding that, and buying a new storm door (I just can't wait to install it-sense the sarcasm.)
So here I am, finally back in my happy world of blog posts. Lately, I've been hanging out with people and their dogs. The dogs are crazy, playful, full of love and kisses and ENERGY and even a bit of shyness, but so sweet. Domino, I'll let you guess which one he is, is a very happy boy, and would be quite content to give his dad kisses all day long. In fact, he was so distracted by all the excitement of the day, that he didn't even notice the 15 pupperoni that I had sticking out of my hat. (Getting a good visual?) Taffy liked to amuse herself by "walking" her brother Truman, and Truman spent most his session adamantly hiding his face behind his mom. Oh, the personalities. Life would be so boring without our dogs. And as I type, someone is shooting off fireworks. IN DECEMBER. Right. And little do they know that I will now be lucky to get 3 hours of sleep as my poor finicky Maddox is already pacing and shaking and probably thinks that the sky is about to fall on his head. If anyone has ever had a Golden who hides in the tub, you know what I'm talking about. If only I had the Dog Whisperer on speed dial!
