Welcome to my Blog!

My name is Annadee and I am a wife to an amazing man, a mommy to 3 beautiful kids and I am a lifestyle photographer in the Denver area.  I am so fortunate to do what I do and I am thankful for the incredible life I have been blessed with.

My love for photography grew while traveling through Europe and the Middle East. Capturing the simplistic beauty, rich culture and a diverse people living their day to day lives in a land foreign to me, fueled my love for photography.  That love only grew after the birth of my son.  I love that with a simple click of a button I am recording unforgettable moments in his life that we will look back on forever.  I would love to capture those moments for you too.

So sit back, relax, grab a cup of coffee and join me as I journey through life and the world of photography.

Heidi: Senior Pictures

Not only is Heidi absolutely beautiful on the outside, this high school senior really impressed me with her maturity, humility, respectfulness, and her gentle, sweet spirit.  I pray that one day my children will grow up to carry themselves with the same beautiful qualities as Heidi.  Thank you Heidi for being such an amazing example.  Many blessings to you and in your future as you graduate and move on to new and exciting adventures!

The Borger Family

This sweet family is very dear to my heart.  I did a newborn session with little Wesley a little over 2 years ago.  You can see those pics here.  He is growing up fast and is full of energy. He definitely keeps his mommy and daddy on their toes. :)  He  is going to have a new baby SISTER join their family really soon so we decided to go out and get some pics of their family before she joins them.  I had so much fun capturing this beautiful family and I’m so excited to meet baby girl!

My sweet boy is 4!

I can’t believe it!  Just seems like yesterday I was bringing home my first born.  I can remember it like it was yesterday.  That sweet little newborn smell, his soft skin and the squeaky little noises he would make.

People would warn us about how much our lives would change and most of it was negative.  They would tell us how we wouldn’t be able to just get up and go out to dinner and a movie at a moments notice, how we better get used to the lack of sleep or how we wouldn’t have any time to ourselves.  I have to admit, I was a little worried about how having a baby would change our lives, but I never really knew how amazing it would be until the moment they first put him in my arms.

It was instant unconditional love and he has forever changed my life in so many positive ways. I believe I look at life less selfishly now and it brings me so much joy to watch life through his eyes.  He has this laughter that is extremely contagious and I love watching him and the simple things that bring him happiness.

Today he is 4.  I was fully aware that your kids grow up fast and that I should enjoy every moment.  You hear it all the time, but I don’t think you are ever really prepared for it.  It totally blows my mind that he is 4.  I have enjoyed every moment of being his mommy, yes even through all the tantrums and frustrating times, and I look forward to all of the precious moments that are to come.

Here are some fun facts about my buddy, Elijah:

Favorite color:  red

Favorite food: peanut butter and jelly shaped like the Millennium Falcon (Star Wars)

Favorite super hero: Spiderman

Favorite movie: The kid has so many favorites and they change every week, but for now it is Bolt

Favorite book:  Harry and Horsie

Elijah has such a gentle sweet little spirit and he loves to help.  He loves to help me in any way that he can such as folding laundry or cleaning up.  He loves his brother and sister so much and is very protective of them.  Yes, he does pick on them a lot, but if anyone comes near them or is mean to them, he is right there protecting them.  He took swimming lessons this summer and his big accomplishment is that he can swim under water now.  We are so proud of him and feel so blessed to be his mommy, daddy, brother and sister. :)

These are his favorite Spiderman pajamas.  He wants to wear them EVERY day.  He doesn’t even care if they are clean or not, so I have to sneak them into the wash.

The Jaspersons

I feel so fortunate to have met the Jaspersons.  They are such an adorable family and so much fun to be around.   Their little boys are so cute and full of energy, as little boys should be.  It wasn’t long before they were done taking pictures, but I think we still got some cute ones. :)

The Schellenberg Kids

Meet Mason, Dylan and Juliet.  Their mom Allison and I met through mutual friends and we were in the same bible study group last year in San Diego. Her and her beautiful family are on vacation here in Denver and she asked me if I could take some pictures of her adorable kids.  Her boys were so much fun and so sweet.  Mason insisted on walking me out and even wanted to walk me all the to my car.  What a sweetie!  It was my first time meeting Juliet (Jules) and oh my goodness…she couldn’t be any more precious.  Here are a just a few images from their session.

The Marshall Family

Meet the Marshall family, Aaron, Janay, Aricin, Talia and Oliver, who happen to be one of the sweetest families I have ever met.  Aricin is one of Elijah’s favorite buddies from his preschool.  This family is so down to earth, laid back and they were up for anything!  You can really tell how much this family loves each other and I had so much fun capturing them.

Jordan and Yasmeen | San Diego Photographer

I had the privilege of photographing these two little cuties, Jordan and Yasmeen.  Aren’t they absolutely precious and sweet as can be?  They are Jordanian and Jordan is a place very dear to my heart.  My husband and I lived there for 4 months and loved every minute of it.  We loved it so much we gave our son Jordan for his middle name. :)

Here are just a few images from their shoot.

Look at those eyes!  Yasmeen is SO beautiful!
