✨ Imogene Pass Run 🏃🏻‍♀️

✨Since the run is tomorrow, I wanted to reflect on a moment I captured last year. Over the next few slides you will see a story of a mother finishing the 17.1 mile run, climbing to 13,114 feet in elevation. From Ouray to Telluride over Imogene Pass.

✨I noticed the children for a while, scanning the faces that went by looking for someone. When their eyes met, their faces lit up with pride. They may know that the race is hard, but they may not truly understand the extent. But that didn’t matter, because you could tell how proud they were, even after she greeted them and continued to the finish line.

✨ I love capturing the raw moments that happen here in our box canyon. The stories that photographs can share, the feeling within them.

Yo-Yo Ma. ✨

✨ I’m breathless. From a young age I grew up playing the violin. 🎻 I didn’t learn to read music right away but was taught off sound. Listening for the notes, the rhythm, the feeling. I moved schools and was then taught to read sheet music. It was a struggle and sometimes it still is. I’ve told my husband recently that I was always jealous of cellists. I loved the cello and the deepness of its body’s sounds. That one day, when I have a house, I’m buying a cello and playing daily. Yo-Yo Ma has always been an inspiration to me.

✨ I wish I could go back in time and let my younger self know that today, on a random Sunday in downtown Telluride, I will see him performing. There was a decently small crowd that gathered and watched. All from seeing a single chair sit quietly in the middle of the road, ready to see what was about to happen. And then he appeared. My eyes watered up thinking about what I was watching and remembering how much I love classical music. How much I love the sound of a solo cello.

✨ Lexi & Cody ✨

✨ I am in love with this most recent gallery! Cody and Lexi made it so easy to capture their elopement in Telluride. Their love and personalities made every moment feel so effortless, genuine, and full of joy. I’m so grateful I got to document these little moments that tell the story of their day and their love for each other. 🤍⛰️

🍄 The Annual Mushroom Report 🍄

The forecast was correct, this weekend was 100% chance of Mush-love and a FUNgi-time!!🍄‍🟫 ❤️ Here are just a few of my favorite shots from this years parade!!

✨ The Telluride Mushroom Festival has always been my favorite festival! It was the first festival I witnessed when I moved to Telluride many years ago. It was a shock for sure, but was also the most welcoming crowd! The vibrant colors roaming the streets, the time put into the outfits and of course mushroom! I love photographing mushrooms in the wild, learning to cook and identify them, and so much more!

📝Mushrooms are an essential part of the natural world, helping ecosystems stay healthy and balanced. Without fungi, forests and other ecosystems would struggle to recycle nutrients and renew themselves. They remind us that the smallest and most unusual organisms can play a vital role in the health of our planet. 🌎

✨The Bride & The Mountains✨

💍 A single photo for this sneak peek of Lexi and Cody’s August elopement. This dress was absolutely perfection against the gorgeous mountain backdrop.

✨While there are ways to make a photo perfect, sometimes the little imperfections are what makes the photo beautiful. I’ve always been a huge fan of hair strands blowing in the wind. To me it helps tell a story, a feeling of that moment. To me they are truly beautiful.

🌻Summer Engagements🌻

The magic of summer engagements is the uniqueness of what the season brings. Flowers blossoming, low clouds in the back, rainbows and even dancing in the rain. 🌧️

“What if it rains for our proposal session?” Well, two things. I am all for bracing the weather! Those end up being some of the most beautiful moments. If you are truly concerned about the weather, we can adjust for timing etc. I help monitor the forecast to help find a better time or just a better location.

✨ Graduation ✨

✨ It’s one of the biggest stepping stones in the chapters of life. Kids wait for what feels like forever for senior year, and then it creeps up on you. It’s a time where they start navigating their story. Are they staying close to home or moving far? It’s a time of discovering who they are and how they want the next chapters to start.

✨ I’ve had the honor of capturing Ella’s graduation session just a few years after her sisters. Being able to capture a families story over the years is something that I hold near and dear to my heart. So many more fun photos from Ella’s graduation session to come!

✨Headshots✨

☀️ Summer headshots never felt more powerful with Lindsay 🦔 Something unique about headshots, is that they can look absolutely different depending on your career!

⛰️ When you book your headshots with me, we talk about what you are wanting to convey to your target audience. Do they need to look office professional? Do you want to tell your story? What is the message that you are wanting your headshots to tell? What do you want your photos to feel like?

✨ Not all professions need an in-studio face shot. Some do yes, but not all. In small towns like Telluride, we are everyday people, not a big corporate chain. Let’s work together to tell your story!
