Colorado Family Photography Session Creative Flow
Creative Flow During a Colorado Family Photography Session
I get to see Candice and her family about once a year, when we do a new family session for them, usually in the fall. Candice is a photographer in Colorado Springs too, you can find her work on her page here. This woman is amazing, she always hypes me up and is kind in her words and actions. I am thankful that we get to be part of the same tribe. Each year, I have the distinct privilege of documenting her children as they blossom and develop into their unique selves, and it’s deeply rewarding to witness both their growth and the continual deepening of the friendship with Candice over time.
Utilizing a location that I hadn’t used much and that Candice frequently incorporated into her artistic work allowed me to see it from a fresh and inspiring perspective, which not only sparked my creativity but also infused the entire session with vibrant energy. The delightful blend of familiar faces in a new and exciting setting made for a memorable evening with the sunset at Castlewood Canyon, and I genuinely look forward to seeing how this beautiful location continues to evolve. The creativity that flows when the energy is just right can’t be manufactured and this was one of those nights when it was all sparkly and gold.
New locations are a great way for me to flex my creative brain. I love all of my locations, even the ones that I visit several times a month but there is something about being someplace new. New smells, new sights, new rocks, trees, and flowers to explore and discover. There is a big part of me (probably the biggest part if I am honest) that is a kid, and the kid wants to be set free. New settings out in nature allow that energy in me to flow freely and it shows through in the work, it makes me pretty happy too. That’s what ultimately makes for a great time, for me at least. I am lucky to get to hang out with amazing souls in amazing places.
Want to hang out with me in someplace that you love too? Hit me up and we can plan a time together that you and your crew can really sink into.
