Crawfish at The Yabby Hut, Lakewood, Colorado 031512

Pardon the diversion…I couldn’t resist a quick snap and a personal post tonight! That’s 3 lbs of crawfish, spread on a table and steaming hot! We were thrilled to find this place today, and couldn’t believe we hadn’t even known that a cheap and very tasty crawfish shack had been open a few minutes from us for two years! Crawfish, a root beer, a basket of calamari, a fried banana for desert and a bib

Coffee Cupping at Noa Noa Coffee in Golden, Colorado 033112

This was a lot of fun. Rick Myers and the owner of Noa Noa set up this cupping, and invited the roaster to come in and educate the masses a bit about four different coffees he specializes in, and some different techniques and equipment. As a HUGE espresso fan, it was so interesting to find some brewed roasts I actually like, and it was fascinating to taste everything that was going on with the Rwanda.

Moreland and Arbuckle at the Toad Tavern, Littleton, Colorado, 033012

Shooting this show worked out so perfectly! I love Moreland and Arbuckle! I thought that I would email the band, and get things approved ahead of time to photograph the set. Well, that didn’t work out quick enough on my end, and our friends Sean and Amy were definitely going, so I thought we would just buy tickets at an outlet. Well, the ticket outlet couldn’t even find the show in their system, so I

Real Estate Shoot for Keller Williams Agent Rick Myers- 2620 S. Federal Blvd. Unit H, Denver, CO 031112

This was a quick shoot for Keller Williams Agent Rick Myers over the weekend. What a cool little place! I had no idea how such a classy little layout, with a garage, even, could be tucked in the neighborhood just down the street from Lincoln High School and my favorite pho place, Pho 95. I hope this is a quick sale!

Ghin Asian Blend & Sushi – A Night Out With Friends in Lakewood, Colorado 071611

I had a great night out at Ghin Asian Blend & Sushi in Lakewood, Colorado, with Rick and Kristin Myers, and some friends and clients he has worked with lately. Rick arranged a sushi instructional night with Mike at Ghin to teach us all about sushi and some asian/Hawaiian cooking techniques. I can’t recommend this place enough, and at $25/person, it was a great way to spend a few hours with some friends, and is

Denver Botanic Gardens Portrait and Macro Session 111311

I visited the Denver Botanic Gardens in late Fall/early Winter for a Portrait and Macro Photography session. I can’t wait to take a client there for an official portrait session, with the grounds in bloom. Even in November, the gardens were filled with so many stunning little surprises, and of course the greenhouses were such a great backdrop for a shoot like this. Make sure and click below to see all 12 photographs from the

Bumblebee and Wildflowers 080711

Remember the surprise I mentioned on the path at my senior pictures and portrait shoot for Andrew and Catherine? We saw this gigantic bumblebee buzzing around the wildflowers and wild peas during my shoot with Andrew and Catherine on 080711. It was seriously well over an inch long, and you could hear him and his friends buzzing around behind every tree and shrubbery and bend in the path. I am just thrilled how these shots
