The Martinez Family | Star K Ranch Family Photos | Colorado Family Photographer
The Martinez Family had the good fortune of winning my birthday giveaway for a free Colorado Family Photography session. Vanessa had entered it when I posted the giveaway on Instagram. After talking on the phone, we decided on Star K Ranch in Aurora to have her Colorado Family Photography session.
Star K Ranch is a great natural open space that includes walking trails and a nature center where you can learn about the natural wildlife and plants. When I was scouting the area there happened to be a few deer grazing just beyond the south edge of the area along the Highline Canal bicycle trail.
We met up in the main parking lot of Star K Ranch and walked down the path into the main nature area. We had lots of options on backdrops to choose from on where to have their family photography session. Since it was such a hot day in the middle of summer we tried to keep most of our time spent in the shade. It had to be in the mid 90’s at least.
We started right next to the trail with some shots of all of them together. I like to get a good variety of portraits so I always do different combinations of family members together. For example, mom and kids, dad and kids, mom and dad, and then the kids. We then walked down the path where that was lined with a ton a great trees. The path then opened up to some large fields the further south on the trail you travelled. I really enjoyed taking photos at Star K Ranch with the Martinez Family and we had a lot of fun.
Congratulations Vanessa, JC, Jace, and Jessa for winning my portrait session giveaway! I hope you enjoyed your family photo session.
