Revisiting the past can be risky, BUT it can be really fun to see how far you’ve progressed in your art. I love the tik-toks showing people’s art as they’ve kept improving year after year. Practice may not make perfect, (because who the heck knows what that is anyway!) but it certainly can yield massive improvement!

Just depends on what you’re looking for and where you want to go!

So, I looked at a family photography session from about two years ago. I had put out a model call and this adorable young family answered my ad:

My editing style has changed so much since then, so I decided to apply new techniques to the original raw images.

And fell in love all over again:

It was interesting to see which photos popped out as my favorites this time. They were definitely different! Some were the same, but the different ones were more intriguing. Why didn’t they capture my interest the first time around?

I can’t necessarily answer that, but it’s fun to think about.

Some things, like how you develop your photographic eye, changes in subtler ways. For me, going through my original images, I was drawn to different things than when I first delivered this gallery. It changed how I culled, what I chose to edit, and, ultimately, how my gallery would have been presented.

Once I finished revisiting this session from my past, I even updated my portfolio to include some of these new images. It was so exciting to see my editing growth and to find what I was still proud of.

Have you ever done something like this? What did you learn about yourself?

Thanks to that FABULOUS late spring storm, I rescheduled my spring minis and decided to open up a new weekend for a few more families!

See details here:

Just like before, my minis are only $250 and INCLUDE 5 professionally edited digital images. I’ll give you more than that to choose from, of course, and you can purchase the entire album if you wish (for a very reasonable price!), but if you just want those 5 images, that’s okay by me!

My mini sessions this season will be 15-20 minutes long – just long enough to capture some adorable, fun, and gorgeous pictures of your family! I’ll host them in the evening, 5:30, 5:50, and 6:10 PM for two weekends toward the end of May:

June 10th: Wonderland Lake, Boulder, Colorado
6:30 BOOKED
6:50 BOOKED
7:10 BOOKED

June 11th: Jim Hamm Nature Area, Longmont, Colorado
