A Beautiful Colorado Springs Mountain Photo Session | Featuring Family Photos

Colorado Springs Mountain Photo Session

As a photographer, there are few things more breathtaking than Colorado in August. The stunning mountain views, warm weather, and lush landscapes make it the perfect backdrop for a family photography session. Last summer, I had the privilege of capturing this Colorado Springs mountain photo session, and I am excited to share some of the images we captured.

A Sunset Mountain Session

We chose a location near the mountains, where we could capture the gorgeous scenery while also having enough open space for the kids to run around. The family arrived dressed in coordinating outfits in shades of blues and greens with a pop of white. I love the way these colors compliment the mountain scenery.

As the sun began to set, we took advantage of the golden hour light to capture these beautiful family photos with the mountains in the background. The warm, golden light was stunning. We captured some beautiful photos of this family set against the beautiful Colorado scenery.

Highlights From the Session

This adorable baby boy really stole the show in these family photos. Nine months is a really great age to to schedule family photos with your baby. If you wait till a year, sometimes they just want to get down and run around and that makes the photo session a bit more challenging.

Some of my favorite images from this session were taken along a dirt road with the mountains looming in the background. I love how lush the greenery is this time of year. The sun was setting behind the family and casting a beautiful warm glow.

Another highlight from this session were these sweet candid photos of the boys and their mom. Motherhood images are always some of my favorite! I love their sweet smiles full of joy.

This Colorado Springs mountain photo session was a huge success. Not only did we capture some stunning images, but we also had a great time together. I love being able to capture moments like these. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with family so many times over the last few years. These images will be treasured for years to come. I can’t wait to see this family again this year for their annual photo session.

✨ Propaganda I’m not falling for:
-Fall is the best season for family photos
-Photo sessions  with toddlers are too stressful
-Golden hour is overrated
-Only big milestones are worth documenting
-You can't have fun AND get good photos

The truth:
🌼 Every season has its magic.
👣 Toddlers are chaos and joy wrapped in one.
📸 The everyday moments matter just as much as the big ones.
☀️ And golden hour? always worth it, even those late summer nights

What’s in my camera bag?
A little bit of gear… and a little bit of “just in case.” 😅📸

I come ready for anything a session throws our way—because when you’re wrangling toddlers, exploring and chasing the light, you got to be prepared!

Here’s what I never leave home without 👇
✔️ R5 + 28-70mm (my go-to)
✔️ 35mm lens
✔️ Backup camera + lens
✔️ Extra batteries + SD cards
✔️ Lens cleaning cloth
✔️ Camera toy for the littles
✔️ Hand sanitizer, band-aids, and trash bags (leave no trace and can protect my gear from rain!)
