I have a theme song | Denver family photographer
Posted on March 2, 2010
“Words make you think a thought. Music makes you feel a feeling. A song makes you feel a thought.”
Yep you read that right, “I HAVE A THEME SONG”. It may be dorky, but I am part dork and happily proud of it. What is a theme song you ask? A theme song is the song you hear in your head (& your heart). Perhaps you hear it when you take on something new or when you are feeling blue (HA! I rhymed). It can remind you of what you want, where you are going and how you want to feel. In a nutshell it is a musical touch stone.
My theme song has been one of my long time favorites and recently it just kept popping up over and over for me towards the end of last year. So when January rolled around I decided to adopt it as my personal theme song. I loaded it on my phone as my ring tone and it is weaved throughout my daily playlist. This song is me……it is absolutely how I feel about my life, where I am at, where I am going, my photography…. my art. Right now, nothing can stop me; I am right where I want to be, I love who I am and what I create.
“Watch out world here I come”
Since part of the purpose of this blog is to share parts of me I will share with you my theme song. Perhaps it will inspire you to find one of your own!
Oh and for those of you who must have eye candy in every post here is a little tribute to Dr. Seuss in honor of his birthday today and of course parades

Our new addition | Denver Family Photographer

“The best way to get a puppy is to beg for a little brother – The’ll settle for the puppy every time”
~ Winston Pendleton
Here is our new addition “Canon”, isn’t he adorable?! He wasn’t the puppy we had originally set out to get but he once he looked into our eyes and wagged his cute tail, he was ours (or is it that we were his?). He is a sweet boy and he love sleeping on his back with his tongue hanging out. He also is a big fan of chasing my two year old around and of course belly rubs. It is obvious that he is going to be fantastic part of our family and we are excited to watch him grow.
I think animal adoption is so important and we adopted sweet Canon from a great local puppy rescue. Lifeline Puppy Rescue is located in Brighton, Colorado and they are a fantastic organization. The volunteers and staff at Lifeline were so wonderful and patient throughout the whole adoption process. They are a no kill shelter and It is obvious that they really care about finding their puppies a great home for life. Not only do they care for and adopt out puppies but they also help to make sure that older dogs in numerous rural areas in and around Colorado are spay and neutered. I cannot say enough about this great organization. So if you are looking to adopt a new furry friend or if you are looking for a great animal rescue organization to donate too, I highly recommend Lifeline. You can get more information about there great organization at
Thanks for dropping by! Now without further ado here is “Canon”. I plan on capturing more of him as he grows older so you will be seeing more posts of him in the future.

Out with the old and in with the new; NEW YEAR that is! | Colorado Family Photographer
Posted on December 31, 2009
We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year’s Day.
~Edith Lovejoy Pierce
As 2009 becomes a distant memory I wanted to take this time to thank my fabulous clients for allowing me to be part of so many special moments in your lives this year. Thank you for sharing your special family moments with me. It is my hope that you and your families will enjoy them for many years to come.
I also wanted to take this time to thank my friends and family. I am so blessed to be surrounded by people who have not only supported me but who have also cheered me on during this last year; without you guys I would not be as successful as I have become. You have all made this journey so much more special and for that I am truly grateful!
Lastly, I need to thank my wonderful husband. You have been my biggest cheerleader and I could have never done any of this without you. You are my love, my soul mate and most importantly my best friend. You work so hard for our family and your endless dedication to me following my dream makes you one of a kind. I love you!
Ok, enough with the mushy stuff. Let’s ring in the New Year! 2010 is coming in with a bang and I know without a doubt it is going to be a creatively fantastic year!
2010 is going to be full of some fun and exciting changes for Kristanne V Photography. In the works are some new casting calls, promotions and new offerings. What is NOT in the works? Well that would be a price increase. While things are starting to look up for some in regards to the economy there are still others that are struggling, so this year I will not be raising my rates. My current pricing structure is working really well and so we are going to keep it going.
In 2010, I look forward to bringing you the best Kristanne V Photography has to offer. Please keep your eyes on the blog and our Facebook fan page for future news and promotions. We really are going to have a fun year full of surprises.
Thank you again my dear clients, friends and family! It is my hope that in 2010 you are blessed with great health, heart filling love, immense happiness and joy mixed in with a few miracles. You all deserve nothing but the best!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
18 too soon | Denver Family Photographer

“One of the signs of passing youth is the birth of a sense of fellowship with other human beings as we take our place among them.”
Virginia Woolf
18 years ago today my sweet boy came into this world and changed my life forever. It is so hard for me to believe that time has passed so quickly since I first saw his sweet face. He has been a bundle of joy, frustration, wonder and fun these past 18 years; I have no doubt he can say the same thing about me .
I cannot tell you how grateful I am for the thousand of images I have taken of my first born (this being one of my favorites).
I think documenting his life through film is a huge part of what lead to me be a photographer. Now that he is a young man on the verge of defining his own life, I can look back at all of these images and remember what it was like when he was just learning about the world around him. A time when only I could fix his boo boos, make the world’s best grilled cheese sandwich and be the one he shared his dreams with. What a wonderful and magical time it is for us mothers to be the keepers of their dreams.
Today is a new beginning for him. Yes, the changes have been happening slowly for the last several years as adolescence took its hold, but today puts it in stone. My little boy is now an adult. Soon he will be leaving this nest and making a home of his own. He will be sharing his heart and dreams with another woman and he will be experiencing the world in a whole new way. All I can hope for now is that I did my job well, that he believes in himself and that his heart is full. It is my hope that I have given him all of the tools that I can to realize his dreams.
HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY CAMERON!
I love you more than words can express. May this journey you are embarking on be filled with fun, love, fulfilling work and dreams realized. You deserve it all!
Love, Mom
Happy Holidays from my family to yours | Denver Family photographer

“Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.”
~Hamilton Wright Mabie
I love the holidays, I think the quote above says it all. I love this time of year because whether or not you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, this is the time of year we all seem to open our hearts a little bit more. Whether it be sharing a real sit down meal with your family or reconnecting with those you have lost contact with, we all try a little harder during the season.
So from my family to yours no matter which holiday you celebrate we hope that it is filled with love, laughter and lifelong memories. May the year ahead find your heart full of the greatest of joy, love and a few miracles sprinkled in.

“I ♥ Faces” week 49 – “Pets Only Challenge”
Posted on December 15, 2009
“An animal’s eyes have the power to speak a great language.”
~ Martin Buber
It has been a while since I have been able to participate in the weekly “I ♥ Faces” challenges. My business and my toddler have been growing by leaps and bounds(which I am EXTREMELY grateful for). Both have been keeping me happily busy but It hasn’t left much free time for extra fun stuff like the “I ♥ Faces” challenges. Well the holiday slow down is upon me and so I thought it would be a perfect time for some challenge fun.
For those of you whom aren’t familiar with “I ♥ Faces” you can check them out at www.iheartfaces.blogspot.com. You don’t need to be a professional to play along; you only need to have a pic you love that fits with the weekly theme. Easy breezy and a blast!
This is one of my most favorite animal captures. Isn’t he gorgeous? I think I love it so much because his eyes are so soulful.
