So last night, I took photos in our Fellowship Group for the church’s new web site. It reminded me of shooting for a newspaper – once you gain the trust of people – they have no problem with you taking pictures – they tend to almost ignore you. Which is awesome! This morning I also took a couple still lifes for fillers on the site.
You may remember Khalil from a post when he was just 1 week old – well, now he’s a chubby 3-month old and cute as can be. Giggling and aware, he was fun to be around. His mom and dad love him, and although his older brother, Matias, won’t admit, he’s pretty fond of him too. It’s fun getting to see babies grow – they change so much month to month. Khalil crashed hard after posing for the camera for an hour – he deserved a nap.

Look at that little smirk!
Look at that chubby, slobbery little face! So cute.
How cool are those baby record albums on the wall?!

Laney, or Laneykins, as her dad likes to call her, was a perfect model despite the major snowstorm we had to work in while back in Illinois. But that’s what made things fun. She will do anything for her orange ball, and we sure tested that out. She sat in poses with her eye on that ball, until her owner, Tim, released her and then she was off and running. She was pooped by the end of the shoot, but I am sure an hour after she was ready to play fetch all over again.

She looks so stoic here.
Within the last 5-10 years, Tim got into hunting and has two deer heads hanging in his living room. I had to include them in some way in the photo with Laney.
So the funny part of this story is that my husband was hanging out, watching football one night with a lawyer/friend he works with. Adrian happened to be there – they start talking and my husband finds out Adrian and I went to high school in the Chicago suburbs together, and he played soccer with my brother. To add more to the story – his wife, Carla, and I played basketball together in high school. They are now married, living in Denver. It’s a small, small world!
Carla’s family was out here for an early Christmas, and the weather warmed up enough for some family portraits. We went over to City Park and had a fun time! The Schnepfs were up for anything – goofing off and smiling pretty for the camera. Thanks for a fun shoot guys – Enjoy!

Merry Christmas!! And think WARM!
I had a friend of a friend email me the other day to consider doing dance photos for a contemporary dance company and their upcoming performance. I automatically thought stage lighting, posed dancing, etc. We met up to chat, and I found out these girls were completely the opposite! It was a blast and it was so fun to shoot something a little different – very simliar to a fashion shoot. The girls had so much energy, tons of ideas and were game for anything (even changing in Commons Park!) 
You can catch CLUTCH (hang-on) in Boulder at the Nomad Theater, on February 26 & 27, 2010.
Amy and Matt are good people. They are kind, considerate, compassionate and you can see that by how they take care of each other. Right now, they are in such a transitional phase – trying to get a job, decide where to live, plan a wedding, and make a long-distance relationship work. It was great to spend some time with them together for a few reasons. One, selfishly – it was a lot of fun! Second, because, right now, they don’t get to be with each other much as Matt lives in Denver and Amy is in Minnesota. Hopefully soon they’ll both be back here. We were all together in Jackson Hole when Matt and Amy came back from a hike engaged. You can see those photos here.
I can’t wait for their wedding next year, and I know neither can they!

Andie was a perfect model for her photo shoots, despite the fact that she my have eaten too many biscuits (a girl’s got to watch her figure). She ran around, laid down, played with her mom, Kelley, and in general had a great time and so did I! And we managed to get it all in before that nasty wind and rain rolled in. Andie, daaahrling, you look fabulous. Click here to view the web gallery of Andie.
And remember – you have one more week to take advantage of the $50 off pet, family and children photography. Must be booked by Oct. 31.
Had about 20 minutes to shoot some portraits of the 2008-2009 University of Denver Law Review Board. Most were pretty standard shots, but they were up for some fun photos at the end. Look for some of them on the Supreme Court in 20 years…
