Vivian – 4 years old

I couldn’t believe it.  I met her when she only a couple of months old and watched with amazement as she grew into this tall, giggling girl.  Even though she wasn’t speaking yet, she could understand and walk with assistance, smiling and giggling the entire time.  Vivian is one of the sweetest humans I have ever met.

For her 4 Year photos, we kept it very simple.  Mom dressed her up, we removed distractions, and then I focused on moving my fingers fast for her.  As with all children, I never take for granted every second that they are comfortable around me.  I’ll photograph the tears, but when I have those happy, pleasant moments in front of me, I fire away.

I photographed Vivian walking around the hallway, coaxed her by a window in front of a lovely lavender wall, and then took her outside to capture her crawl.

Special Needs Photographer

As a special needs photographer, I have been photographing children with developmental delays, ADHD, autism, cerebral palsy, Down Syndrome, and Marfan Syndrome, since 2007.

Combined with my patience, my warm and gentle energy allows children with special needs to feel comfortable in my presence.  As with all children whom I photograph, my goal is to capture not necessarily genuine smiles but their whole personalities.  I document the “in-between” moments and all of the expressions.  I love catching them in their own thoughts.  Their joy, their hesitance, their curiosity, their frustrations.

As a Denver special needs photographer, I not only have experience in working with children but also adults with special needs.  I not only photograph in the Denver area, but I travel all over Colorado and beyond.  I understand the importance of parents finding that perfect person with whom their child connects, and I am happy to travel to you.
