Why Book a Photographer While Traveling?
1 .Make Your Travel Moments Last Forever
Trips fly by, but photographs let you relive them again and again. Instead of settling for phone pictures or selfies, professional images ensure you have high-quality keepsakes from your journey.

Best Locations for your Colorado Springs Travel Photography Session
Colorado Springs offers many scenic locations for photos. Depending on your preferences, we can choose a spot that perfectly reflects your family’s adventure.
Garden of the Gods
One of the most iconic locations in Colorado Springs, Garden of the Gods is a must-visit. The towering red rocks and sweeping views of Pikes Peak create a breathtaking setting for family photos.
North Cheyenne Cañon
If you love nature, North Cheyenne Cañon is a wonderful choice. With towering pine trees, rugged cliffs, and a peaceful creek, this location is perfect for a mountain-inspired session.
Palmer Park
For families looking a grassy field and far off views of Pikes Peak, this is the perfect location and one of my favorites.

Tips for an Amazing Travel Photo Session
1. Plan Your Outfits Wisely
Neutral and earthy tones work beautifully against Colorado’s landscapes. Avoid bright neon’s or busy patterns that might distract from the natural setting. You can learn more about what to wear for your photo session here.

2. Choose the Best Time for Lighting
All of my sessions take place around sunset. There is no other time throughout the day where the light is soft and warm.
3. Bring Essentials
Please bring water bottles for the kids! Often times they will get thirsty during the session because we are exploring and hiking around. Due to our dry weather and high altitude, its important to stay hydrated. I usually recommend leaving snacks in the car because they can become a huge distraction.
4. Have Fun and Be Present
The best photos come from genuine moments. Play, laugh, and enjoy your time together—I’ll handle the rest!
