Colorado Springs Newborn, Baby, and Children Photography

This Kind Of Children and Baby Photography Is Not An Accident. They Are Not Snapshots. And Yet They're Not "Stiff" Or Unnatural In Any Way.

So many photographers actually FEAR children.  Well, we can understand that, right? Children can be pretty scary sometimes.  Working with other people's children can be very intimidating. But getting portraits done is scary for children, too! Think about this. Most photographers don't even meet your child until it's time to create the photographs.  So, your child is sitting there, under all these bright lights, in a strange place, in front of some strange person he or she has never met before.  How scary is that?  It's no wonder most photographers have to resort to telling children to "say cheese" in order to get any expression even resembling a smile.

You know your child better than anyone else in the world.  You know his or her "real" smile, and you know his or her "fake" smile.  But, you know what? Other people can tell the difference too.  We all can. You've seen photographs where you could tell the photographer just posed the child and said "say cheese!"  The lighting may have been good. The background might have been nice. But that fake expression that happens when a child is PROMPTED to smile - that just makes the photograph look like a snapshot instead of a special captured moment in your child's life. We call that deer-in-the-headlights photography, and we don't like it!

Imagine How Wonderful Your Child's Expression Will Be When The Photographer Has Become Your Child's FRIEND.

   Children are very smart. They don't just blindly trust anyone.  And they NEVER show their true expressions to someone they don't know and trust.  In addition to my years as a professional photographer, I also have 20 years of experience as a child psychologist in a way. You see, I have 6 children of my own, and feel like I know how to "connect" with children in a way that puts them at ease.

"Tracy, the portraits you have done of Lauren have been so beautiful. We weren't happy with the pictures we got at (retail store), and that's why we called you. You have exceeded our expectations. We wouldn't trade what you do for anything. Thank you so much for great baby portraits to help us remember Lauren's first year!"
