Handsome Boy – Washington Park Portraits for Stylish Families

(You can always follow me on Instagram and/or Facebook, where I tend to post a bit more often.) Today, I have time to quickly post just one image from a recent family session in Washington Park. The family portraits are AMAZING, but for this first posting I decided to do it of their 8 year old boy. His big sisters and his mother are beyond beautiful – like drop dead gorgeous. And of course lovely and stylish women – they have it all! And Dad is super handsome and very nice. Oh! And super connected in all the ways it matters if you are shooting @ 6am @ Wash Park, when the city tends to water the landscaping. Speaking of, have you seen the flower beds @ Washing Park, the ones near the boathouse? They make me a Sad Panda. I know what happened is that the Spring/Summer hail decimated the flowers there. But I sure do miss the lovely flowers that usually grow there;-( Back to this kiddo –  I worry that when I post the entire family photo, the ladies’ beauty might eclipse how handsome and cute this boy is, in his own right. So his portrait goes up first. (Anyone recognize that tree trunk? It must be the most famous and photographed tree @ Washington Park.) Meet Mr Personality: (oh, I can’t wait to share his “zoolander” look in a future posting.)

3 Tips for Denver Kids Modeling Headshots – by Natascha Lee Studios

Are you looking for headshots of your child model, actor, gymnastics, dancer, or performer? Here are three tips for you.


Tip #1: Many people think you just need one or two images. Actually, you will need at least 9 images: 3 distinct outfits, then a headshot, a 3/4 and a full body of each outfit

Tip #2: Your portfolio images also should demonstrate a variety of expressions (your child’s “range”), but still be consistent in terms of showing your child’s unique personality.

Tip #3: It’s super important that your photographer is great with kids! Your child need to have FUN during her/his session.

Here is what a recent client said on my Facebook page:

Natascha, you are such a joy to work with! Mackenzie can’t wait to come back and bounce some more. We feel so fortunate to have had you do Mackenzie’s head shots! – Jennifer, Mackenzie’s Mom

Denver Dance Kid Dynamo – Dancer and Modeling Portfolio Shots by Natascha Lee Studios

Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing Presley’s modeling portfolio images @ my studio just North of Downtown Denver. It’s a real honor to photograph these wonderful children’s modeling portfolio images, and I enjoy making sure each image celebrates not only their external beauty, but even more importantly that it highlights their unique personality and their internal beauty.  Quite a few of my clients are involved in dance, ice skating or gymnastics.

Presley is a dear, so full of external and internal beauty! She currently dances with Starstruck Academy of Dance. She was most recently in the ShowBiz Entertainment dance competition, where she won; 1st in her age division, solo “High Point Title” winner, as well as being named “Ms. ShowBiz”. Congrats Presley! She is also an incredible student, with straight “A’s” even though she dances 5 days a week.

What a little star!

BTS: A little BTS – Behind-The-Scenes story about her pose on the right. As background, I often actually get into the pose I want someone else do, as it’s the quickest way to convey the idea.  I was trying to show Presley how I wanted her to keep her shoulders back she got in the pose. So I grabbed my own foot and got into the pose to show her. Not knowing that I am a former ballet dancer myself, she was quite shocked and as I grabbed my foot and started moving above my head, right there in the middle of the sidewalk – she initially reached out to help me, like she was worried I was falling over.  Then, once I got into the pose (very briefly), she smiled and understood. Still, there was a moment there where she really didn’t know what the heck her crazy photographer was doing and was trying to be helpful. Such a sweetie!
