Denver Senior Photographer: Ellie Paliga 1940's Styled Session


Ok.  I'm just going to be super honest and tell you that you are looking at one of my absolute favorite sessions EVER.  When Ellie booked me for her senior pictures last summer, she booked the Colorado Session, which means she gets two sessions...one in the summer and then a second one in the winter.  Most people who book the Colorado Session want snow pictures, which I LOVE to shoot, but Ellie decided she wanted to go for a 1940's styled session instead.  As artists, getting to do something new and creative is a dream come true, so it goes without saying that Tasha (make-up artist), Jennifer (hair stylist), and myself were thrilled with her idea!!!  Ellie is an actress, so this fits her so well and she was really able to pull off the character.  I'm soooooooo happy with how these turned out.  Hope you love them too! :)

Denver Senior Photographer: Cover Girl Session Experience Video



All along my photography journey, there have been new ideas that have excited and reinvigorated me.  Nothing, however, has excited me more than my newest session option - the Cover Girl session! Let's be honest.  When most (not all, but most) of us girls walk by the magazine aisle at the grocery store, there's a part of us that would love the experience of being in a photo shoot to be on the cover of those magazines.  The incredible clothes, the hair & make-up artists pampering us, the wind blowing through our hair...   It's a girl thing, we want that experience!!  Society has really tainted our views of models and what it means to be a cover girl.  But I don't think that should hinder us from having the experience the way it should be done.  To me, being a Cover Girl means showing the world the confident YOU.  And that's what this session is all about...showing YOU off.  Check out the video above to see what the experience looks like.  To see it larger, you can also view it on Vimeo by clicking HERE.

When you book the Cover Girl session, we will shoot your “regular” outdoor senior portraits for 2 hours and then we will go into the studio and create glam, magazine cover worthy images.  You will have FULL ACCESS to the Stacey Kyler senior closet, which is full of great wardrobe options showcasing current fashion trends, incredible dresses, and accessories galore!  Additionally, you will get your very own personal magazine full of your outdoor and studio images as well as stories about you, fun facts, letters from and to your parents, etc.  This is without a doubt, the keepsake every family will want to have forever!!  Included in this session is professional hair and make-up, 2 hours of “regular” outdoor shoot time, 1 hour of studio shoot time, as many wardrobe changes as you’d like, and full access to the Stacey Kyler senior closet.

Here are some samples of what your custom magazine will look like...

Denver Senior Photographer: Class of 2016 Model Team | Laundromat Shoot!


Oh man.  Saturday was SO MUCH FUN with my incredible Class of 2016 Model Team!!  After finishing up with hair and make-up, we headed to the Cozy Cleaners laundromat in Evergreen for a little retro photo shoot.  Seriously, are these girls not the most adorable you've ever seen???  If you don't know them and you're thinking, "I want to be their friend," you are so right.  They truly are as sweet and fun as they look.  I mean, I want to be their friend! :)  

If you have any questions about what the senior picture experience is like with me and my team, any of these fabulous girls can answer your questions.  All I know is that this summer is going to be AMAZING, a very HUGE part of which is the time I will get to spend with these 12 amazing young ladies!!!  Hope you enjoy these photos as much as we enjoyed the experience of taking them!! :)

Denver Senior Photographer: Josie Pfaff Winter Session | Clear Creek High School | Class of 2015


Today's Colorado winter session feature is the absolutely adorable Josie Pfaff, a senior at Clear Creek High School.  Josie was Clear Creek's Homecoming Queen (yayyyyyy!), so we incorporated her crown into a few of the photos.  Absolutely love how all of these photos turned out, but I love this girl even more.  Josie, you are special, my dear, and have so much to offer this world.  I can't wait to see the incredible things that you accomplish.  (And p.s. I'm so glad you are staying in Colorado for college, because maybe that means this won't be the last time I get to see you!!)
