Dress Up Daydreams {Castle Rock Children's Photographer}

Every little girl daydreams about dressing up for a big formal event, putting on mommy's shoes and pearls and dancing the night away with her prince charming.  Let your little girl dress up in your favorite gown - your lush wedding gown, your 1994 Prom Dress, a ball gown from your college formal…all those dresses you'll never wear again, that she eyes every time she's in your closet.  Add shoes, pearls, or a veil and you have a portrait of a lifetime.  

Crib Tales Photography is turning the studio into a dress up dream - bring along your own dress or accessories, or use some of my accessories.  Each little girl gets a personal 20 minute portrait session customized just for her!

Appointments are required, and limited.  To reserve your session or for questions contact Amy Stephens at:

School Daze {Castle Rock Children's Photographer}

For the past three years I have had the honor of photographing the delightful kiddos at the Primrose School of Castle Rock.  I have seen them grow by leaps and bounds over the past few years and many have also become wonderful family clients of mine as well.  I recognize their children around town, at the pool, parks and grocery stores.  It gives me such joy to know these children and get to see them as they grow and change.  This year I had the privilege of adding another school - Castle Rock Adventure Club Preschool and Pre-K.  This one is especially dear to my heart because both of my boys have gone through their amazing program.  Their teachers and director mean the world to me as they have shaped the minds and morals of Jackson and Holden and hundreds of other children in our community.

One other addition to this past years' School Picture Day agenda was the Homeschool Group of Castle Rock.  My best friend homeschools her son and I do a picture day for him each year to commemorate the school year, so I knew there was a need for "picture day" within this community of children.  What a remarkable group of kiddos and parents! I'll stop yapping now and roll a few pictures from the 2011 School Picture Days in and around Castle Rock.  Cheers!

{D Family} Castle Rock Family Photographer

My schedule this fall has been filled with the most lovely, wonderful and dear repeat client families.  I love (adore!) seeing the children grow and change and develop little personalities.  It is the same joy I get watching my own children grow and change.  The D family was in front of my lens for the 3rd time a few weeks back.  Previously in 2010 there was a maternity/family session, then a newborn session, and now a family of 4 session! We met in downtown Castle Rock to explore our quaint town with a smiling Emery who has just turned one and a curious Merrick who is nearing three.  I love this family even more because the beautiful Mrs D was my own son's 1st grade teacher last year.  She is an exceptional teacher and has played a huge role in the molding of my son.  She even continues to be an ear for me when I have questions and concerns.  She has taken a year off from teaching to be with her beautiful babies, but the teacher in her is always present.  And lest I forget Mr. D, they say behind every great man is a great woman but I say the same is true the other way around - behind every great woman is a great man.  Thank you D family for letting me peek into your family for the morning.  It was a delight!

Vintage Fall - Monument Family Photographer

I can't deny it, the F Family is one of my favorite families to photograph.  This was their 3rd year of having me out to capture their gorgeous family, and every year we have more fun than the last!  This year April wanted something a little different, a little more styled and a wee bit more classic.  She had me at classic!  I sent her a "What to Wear" storyboard and she built their wardrobes around those suggestions.  I love the colors - the soft grays and pinks with splashes of a deeper plum.  Very vintage,  very fall, and all classic.  Remind me again that these were taken in 2011...

Sweet As Pie - Castle Rock, Colorado Children's Photographer

Ellia just turned one.  One! That's a big, fat, humongous milestone!  Right?! I was so happy to be able to capture her sweet, beautiful and thoughtful face.  And big brother Ian had some fun in the mix, too!  I captured a larger family session for them last fall and it was amazing to see how much she has changed and grown in the past several months.  Way to be one sweetie pie!
