Garden of the Gods | Colorado Springs Family Portrait Photographer

There is something particularly heart warming in watching a dog owner love on their babies.  Or a dog being so completely enamored in their owner.  Its sweet, innocent and completely honest.   What a fun change for me when I was asked to take a few photos of this sweet family.  And yes, its a family.

This family session...really stood out to me.  Yes, I LOVED sweet Lily.  Her natural tendancy to explore.  Her shy smiles she would give me.  But my favorite moment was when Papa (Lindsay's Dad) showed up.  Her face broke into the biggest smile I have ever seen.  I have never seen such love with a grandparent.  I mean I have but just not to that extent.  Whenever Papa would put her down, the tears and sadness would begin...but stop when he came back.  Uh, so cute.  Anyway, enjoy a few pics from that late afternoon!

Such a beautiful day!  And this family was willing to hike a bit to get the gorgeous backdrop of Garden of the Gods and Pikes Peak.  In my opinion...well worth it.  ;p  Blake, Robin and Jeff were so fun to work with.  So easy to talk and laugh with.  Enjoy a few photos from that late afternoon!
