Part-time Vail Residents, Nick & Marty Ragland, from Cincinnati, Ohio decided taking the family to the C Lazy U dude ranch near Granby, Colorado would be fun! They were right!First, we had to have a photo of Nick & Marty with their five wonderful sons. They look like they fit right in at the ranch.
And here are Nick & Marty with their beautiful grandchildren. I wonder if we could find a cowboy hat small enough for the baby?
Here’s the entire family; Nick and Marty are so lucky to have their five sons with wives and children all together in such a beautiful place.
She was so cute I just had to get this photo!
This felt like something out of an old Western movie; The Ragland family are horse people and it shows. They all look like naturals!
What better gift can a mother receive for her birthday than family photographs! That’s exactly what Ryan Joyce did. He brought together the whole family to celebrate with his Mom & was thoughtful enough to hire me to capture the memories! Here is his Mom, Patrice and her husband, Ron Lara.
Here’s the whole family together. They all gathered at Patrice’s home in Breckenridge, Colorado to celebrate her 70th birthday. Nothing better than to be surrounded by your children & grandchildren. Even the family dog was included!
I had to get a family photograph of Ryan and his wife Natalia with their two adorable children! Picture perfect!
Now this is a nice group of grandchildren! I hope those two girls can keep all those boys in line!
I always try to get a few photos when they aren’t posing. Here’s a tender moment of father & daughter.
Being a good photographer means you catch the moment. Just had to get this photo of Natalia. She looked so beautiful in that light.
This setting is a photographers dream! Meet the Longo Family! High atop the mountains in Cordillera, Colorado sits a beautifully preserved log cabin, dating back to the early 1900’s . This was the perfect place to stage a photoshoot in the Vail, Colorado area for a family portrait.
The three grown children seem to be enjoying visiting Mom & Dad in the beautiful Rocky Mountains!
Take every chance you can to capture a picture of your kids! Sometimes it’s hard to round them up!
Family portraits make lasting memories. Here is the complete Longo family with one of the boys girlfriend.
They sure make a cute couple!
The spectacular homes in Cordillera are all unique and have beautiful landscaping. This bonus shot was at the water feature at their home on the Cordillera Summit.
This wedding portrait is one of my favorites! Maggie made such a beautiful bride and the Vail, Colorado creek setting topped it off! Don’t worry; My assistant made sure she didn’t fall in the water! Toast to the bride & groom! The groom, Nick, is a recent West Point Graduate, and the reception was held at Allies Cabin in Beaver Creek, Colorado. The wedding was held at the Beaver Creek Chapel in a beautiful venue at the base of the ski mountain. And from the looks of it, everyone was having a blast! This captures exactly what the wedding was all about: LOVE!There’s no better weather than July in the Rocky Mountains for a wedding.Another successful wedding photography event! ~Mort
