Photography by Darlene

Photography has always been a passion of mine. I received my first Hanimex 110 for my 11th birthday. I had begged and begged to have a camera for years, but was told I was not old enough.  Here I am, decades later, still being driven by my passion for photography.  It is an honor for me to be able to capture a precious moment in time.

I work full time as a mental health therapist, and earned degrees in Spanish, Psychology, and a masters of Social Work.  I travel all over Colorado and beyond to capture precious memories. 

Photography allows me to be a part of special moments while giving the gift of a single picture. My philosophy around providing photography is I strive to make the customer happy and capture the essence of a moment in time.  I offer wedding photography services for small ceremonies (100 or less) and do family, newborn, and maternity photography. I focus less on directing for a pose, but rather bearing witness to the relationship and image before me while snapping the shutter.  I lean towards creative photography while both offering traditional photos as well as creative sessions.

As you may notice I have spent years capturing moments with families, and I am so honored to be considered a family photographer in every sense.  My unique creative skills help me shape the perfect photo as I use editing to enhance to nature tone and essence of each photo. 

I am also LGBTIQ friendly and knowledgeable.
