Family Photos at Blodgett Peak Open Space The C Family

What I love most about this location is the way it looks and feels like you’ve traveled up into the mountains, but it’s nestled right in Colorado Springs. From the parking lot at Blodgett Peak Open Space it’s just a short walk up the hill to this gorgeous spot. And we were lucky to catch some beautiful fall colors for this family session! Despite a few gloomy days in the weeks around their session, the sun was out and glowing for this beautiful family’s portraits.

And I have to say- mom did a great job with their outfits! Let’s see what she did right…

Stick to 1-2 patterns ✓

Incorporate layers ✓

Add accessories ✓

Don’t forget to match the shoes! ✓

My loves 😍 I finally got my own family in front of the camera and I totally get why it’s so hard to make it happen. Life gets busy, kids grow up, and suddenly it’s been too long! Not to mention the agony of shopping for 7 people!! But it was 100% worth it. And I’m definitely hiring someone next time so I can be in more…

If you’ve been putting it off too… maybe this is your sign. ❤️ Your Colorado Springs Family Photographer

Look at all these humans we made from scratch (ok, we had a little help from the Man upstairs). We did good. You know how it goes - the photographer’s family is always the last to get photos. Finally have an updated pic for the wall!
