The Purvis Family- Denver Family Photographer

Does anyone else feel like they are still reeling from the holidays?  I guess being out of town 3 times in the last 4 weeks has taken its toll on me!!  I am finally getting back into the swing of things and I am trying to get caught up.

First thing on my list.....blogging about this awesome family!

Stephanie and I were in the new mom's class together when Jameson and John were babies.....9 years ago.  I loved getting to know her and I love that we have kept tabs on each other (thank you social media) even though they have moved from Colorado to California!

So earlier this fall when Stephanie said they were going to be in Colorado after Christmas and she wanted family pictures, I did a little happy dance!  I love that even though families move away, they still love Colorado pictures when they get back.  Then at the last minute, she decided to add her extended family for a late Christmas gift.  I love working with big ol' families and seeing them interact with each other!!

 Sisters are the best!!

We went up to the Colorado Railroad Museum to do these photos.  It was so much fun!  The kids loved exploring the area and seeing all of the old trains.  

I haven't been to CRRM in a LONG time and I have never shot there, so I had fun exploring and finding new spots as well.  Thankfully it was a fairly nice day and we weren't too chilly!  I also loved that I could use these railroad tracks.  Usually tracks are very dangerous and so I don't use them, but these tracks lead to nowhere so it was safe to use them!

Aren't these two so cute??  I love when I had them pose for these I asked John "you are a lucky guy, would you marry her again"?  His immediate response was "in a heartbeat".  I love that!!

How cool is this old box car?  I found out that we were kindred spirits and that we all love Fixer Upper and this looks like something they would use in their show.  So we had to get a picture in front of it!

I loved seeing you Stephanie and meeting all of your family.  The kids are so grown up and I can't believe that our boys were babies together!  Surely they can't be almost a decade already!!!

The Roseman Family- Denver Extended Family Photographer

Sorry that I have been a little MIA.  It is busy season which means I am doing a ton of sessions and then editing those sessions with every spare minute!  However, you can see more of my candid moments on my Instastory on Instagram @lilo_photography.   But now it is time to get caught up on some blogging!  And there is no better way to start than with a family you love!

Now that I have been in business for over 5 years, I love the way I get to see the same families over and over.  And I get to watch them grow before my very eyes!

I was lucky enough to do newborn photos for this family when Dominic was born.  They are some of my favorite newborn pictures!  Especially because big brother Gabriel is so darn cute.  Click here if you want to see more from Dominic's newborn pictures from last year.

Now fast forward and Dominic is one.  How did that happen so quickly!?  

 And Gabriel is the sweetest little guy (even though I called him Dominic all day...geesh)

Here comes trouble!!

 

Isn't it funny how different these boys look.  Gabriel's eyes are the most beautiful chocolate color.

And Dominic has the brightest blue eyes!

 We had to reschedule the pictures because it was pouring rain when we were going to originally do them.  So glad the weather held the second time around and we even got some really pretty sunlight!

Dominic wasn't really interested in the letters once he found out he couldn't eat them! 

Brother pictures always have a special place in my heart.  Even though Dominic is only one...look how cute these two are together. 

After capturing this sweet little family, everyone changed and we headed nearby to a park and did some extended family pictures.

Because this was almost like a double session....you get to see double the pictures.  Isn't that awesome?  Something else that is awesome.  These two.  I have loved watching their love grow over the years.

 

Sweet Aunt Jen.  The boys LOVE her.  Isn't it obvious?

Fun backstory.  Jen dabbles in photography too!  She took our family pictures a few times when my boys were little (in fact even before my youngest was born).  I love and cherish those pictures. Thanks Jen!  So glad I could return the favor and do some pictures for you.

This woman is amazing!  I have always looked up to her strength and love for the Lord.  What an inspiration.  And look at the beautiful family that she is surrounded by.

She adores these boys....and the feeling is completely mutual.  I loved watching this entire family interact.  Such love!!

Big thanks to the photographer that accidentally left this trunk behind!  The boys had so much fun in here and it made for adorable pictures.

So fun having a sister.  Especially one that you get to choose (sort of...by choosing your husband you choose your extended family too).  I love that these two get along so well.

So fun how these three amigos have now become a big, happy family full of love!

These boys love their daddy.

 

As we were walking to the car, we spotted this tractor.  And what boy can resist a tractor?  Not these boys.  They wanted to climb all over it and it made for some of my favorite pictures of the whole day.  I love it when something magical comes out of a chance encounter.

There is nothing like a mama and her boy.

I loved catching up with you guys and you are a blessing to me!
