Going back to Colorado is such an incredible feeling for me. I have lived there twice for a total of 9 years and I must say that I miss the mountains and the friends..BUT I get my fix when I am able to schedule sessions because I reconnect with old friends and even meet some new ones. I saw Laura and Lucy about 5 years ago when we did a mom & daughter session. This time it was the whole family. I haven’t seen Matt in so many years that when he walked around the corner in the lobby of the St. Julien Hotel, I jumped right up to give a huge hug. It’s amazing how so many years can go by yet it seems like we all haven’t skipped a beat. I hadn’t met George & Henry yet, so it was really awesome to get to know them as the session went along. Matt & his oldest son George were waiting at the hotel for mom and the other two kids to show up, so I went ahead and snapped a few of them while we waited. The thing about Boulder and being so close to the mountains, is that the sun sets behind them fairly early this time of year. So when Laura showed up, we did one big hug and I got them in place and ready to go 🙂 I said “we are going to fit an hour and a half into 45 minutes”. haha. I had THE best time with them all!!! The kids were awesome…they could go from a funny shot to a smiling shot to the serious in a nano-second.

If you haven’t had a chance to check out the St. Julien Hotel & Spa, be sure to if you live near there or will be visiting Boulder, Colorado in the future. It is a stunning boutique hotel nestled up against the flatirons and just a block off the Pearl Street Mall. A must see!

Thank you Matt, Laura, George, Henry & Lucy. I had a blast! Until next time in Colorado….

Thank you for stopping by!
