Swell Cupcakes | Yum!

Angie — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 16:43:12 +0000

Remember Gina? …Of course you do! She was the bride of the amazing Lyons Farm Wedding (think: tandem bike ride post-ceremony, chickens, family style BBQ, a live bluegrass band, perfectly-designed invitations, etc. etc. etc.). Last month Gina and her sister Stephanie launched a cupcakery called Swell Cupcakes–the most delicious cupcakes I’ve had in Colorado (I’ve had lots!).

At the beginning of December Swell Cupcakes introduced three new winter flavors–gingerbread, winter wonderland, and peppermint hot chocolate–all of which I had the pleasure of photographing (and then devouring in an embarassingly short amount of time). Here are a few shots of their winter flavors. So beautiful aren’t they? I love cupcakes.

**deliciousness alert** there is GANACHE inside the peppermint hot chocolate cupcake. (!)

Winter Shoot + Convertible Mittens = Happy Photographer

You see? Imagine yourself in the middle of a cold, snowy photo shoot. So cold–as in–you can see each and every breath you take (see photo below!). When you need your fingers accessible to turn little knobs and dials on your camera, these are a wonderful pair of fingerless gloves. When you’re in between shots and you’d like your fingers warm and toasty just pull the flap back over and wear them like mittens. Perfect for any photographer shooting a winter wedding or any other outdoor assignment in the middle of December. PERFECT! :)

Over the past four weeks Jim and I have been working with a few of the lovely ladies at Icelandic Design shooting images for their upcoming catalog. Most of the shoots were outdoor. We got lucky several times with some surprisingly spring-like November weather, but last week’s shoot was pretty chilly, as you might guess from these photos:

I proudly wore my pair of red convertible mittens during the outdoor portion of this shoot and they were the best. Warm hands while also being able to control the dials on my camera. Brilliant.

Headshots | Messenger International | Colorado Springs

John is the founder of Messenger International in Colorado Springs and needed some updated headshots for his books and promotional materials. We shot the entire session at his house in Colorado Springs.

Commercial Photography | Grand Circle Travel Magazine

Angie — Mon, 10 May 2010 21:59:58 +0000

A couple months ago I was contacted by Grand Circle Travel in Boston, who was putting together a magazine article on the travel-inspired wood-carvings of Harry (a talented artist living in northern Colorado). It was an amazing opportunity for me, not just to visit Harry’s wood-working studio and photograph him at work, but also to get to know Harry (quite possibly the friendliest person I have ever met) and see his passion for his work. A detail from the piece that was being featured in the magazine, which kind-of reminded me of the ivory carvings that I used to drool over in my art history classes (especially the one of Justinian riding his horse in triumph–just in case anyone else wants to be an art history nerd with me…)

Musician Photos | Mr. Tim

Tim is a talented singer / composer / performer, and needed some updated headshots and photos for his promotional materials. Though Colorado weather has recently been cold and snowy we lucked out with a nice sunny day and got some great photos:

Commercial Photography: Volkswagen

Angie — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 23:15:04 +0000

Earlier this summer an ad agency in Boulder (Crispin Porter + Bogusky) hired me and Jim to photograph a few children for a Volkswagen ad they’re putting together, which will be running in the Verizon Center in Washington D.C. (the Wizard’s stadium). Though commerical photography/studio setting is not what I would typically consider my “normal” realm, I rarely turn down the opportunity to work with new types of clients and explore new territory. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to work on a national ad, and enjoyed working with all of the talented designers and artists at Crispin Porter.

Here’s one of the first kids from the shoot…and in case you’re looking at his face thinking….WOW….Angie must be the most boring photographer alive….that was the look the art director was going for in the ad campaign….(the kids were SUPPOSED to look bored/tired/lost/confused)
