A modern-day Audrey!

photographer Colorado Springs

Have you ever wanted to be Audrey Hepburn, just for one day? Check out these fun portraits I did for a client who’s a big Audrey fan. The dress, tiara and cigarette holder are hers, but most of the other accessories are mine. I have an extensive collection of vintage clothing, jewelry and accessories, and it’s always fun when I get to use that stuff on a shoot!

I’m sure you’ve seen the original inspiration for this image! It’s classic!

In the opening sequence of “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”, Holly Golightly, after a night of partying, emerges from a cab in front of Tiffany’s. She holds a paper sack containing her breakfast, which she eats while gazing into the shop windows. You can see a still from that sequence HERE.

This image was inspired by a 1953 publicity photo (HERE) from the film “Sabrina”. The client brought her own 1950s-era black phone.

David Tutera wedding gowns fashion show in Denver!

David Tutera wedding dresses Colorado Springs Denver
Yesterday was a lot of fun! What a great way to kick off 2015! David Tutera, fabulous event planner known for his utterly addicting TV show “My Fair Wedding”, and his new show “David Tutera’s CELEBrations”, was at the Curtis Hotel in Denver to show off his line of gorgeous wedding gowns. He also unveiled his new line of men’s formal wear (which was awesome), and afterward he personally greeted and posed for pictures with his many, many fans that showed up for the event. That’s me with him in the photo above, taken backstage — it was a treat to meet him, since I’m a big fan too! He is just as gracious and nice as you would imagine from seeing him on TV. By the way, the only place in Colorado where you can buy David Tutera wedding dresses is here in Colorado Springs, at Bridal Elegance. Terry and her crew from Bridal Elegance worked tirelessly to put together this great fashion show, so enjoy the pictures! (And there are many more on my Facebook page if you want to see more!)

Goth themed fashion editorial shoot

Colorado fashion photographer in Denver and Colorado Springs
I’ve certainly been doing a lot of fashion photography in Colorado Springs lately, and have had no time until now to share some of it here on the blog. This is a goth themed editorial I shot on December 14th, featuring clothing from Terra Verde and Bridal Elegance, with accessories from Zeezo’s (look at those incredible wings in the photo above!). The fantastic makeup concept was created by Pamela Johnson, who is such a pro. I love working with her. The models are Christina and Kiersten, who gamely froze half to death on a VERY chilly day in the name of art! Most of these were taken on location in Colorado Springs, with a handful done in my studio. Enjoy!
