As I sit at my desk creating this post I’m looking outside at our latest snow storm and temps in the single digits. Don’t get me wrong, I love living in a winter wonderland, but sometimes, just sometimes a girl needs to thaw out a little. So I decided to share with you David and Caroline’s family photos from a beautiful late summer day last season!

David and Caroline wrote to me about scheduling family photos before their family’s annual summer trip to Summit County. Typically, more of my family photos happen on winter break but I was excited at the opportunity to capture some of Summit’s summer beauty with this extended family who loves the area so much. We had great fun roaming around some of my favorite spots in Frisco and creating oodles of portrait combinations for them. They even ordered a beautiful family album as a keepsake for the year! (Such a great idea!) I like to photograph at the end of the day so that my clients get a variety of “moods” from the photos. From bright and colorful full sun to that warm gold as the sun sets, to all the beautiful and subtle tones of the sky after the sun dips below the mountains and the horizon.

If you’re interested in family photos during your next vacation to these amazing Colorado rockies, give me a shout!
