Glorious fall is here in Broomfield, the busiest time for family portraits. And, IMHO the most beautiful.

I’ve been quite busy, sometimes even doing multiple sessions in one day. I LOVE it! Love meeting all these wonderful new families, love photographing families I have photographed in years past.

Since I mostly shoot outdoors, you never know what will happen.  This Broomfield family brought their very sweet but hyper dog. I love including pets in family portraits, because they are, after all, part of the family. However, it’s important to bring a handler for your pets, someone who is NOT actually in the portrait.

Since this was a “just the kids” shoot, Mom was the dog handler. And everything would have  been fine…except for this cat….

This spunky little black cat would NOT leave us alone. We were in a local open space in North Broomfield, and this black cat followed us everywhere! We kept trying to move to different areas, but it followed…. drove the poor dog crazy!

And then, the kitty also drove the Mommy crazy b/c her daughters desperately wanted to take the kitty home. (Honestly, we did try to catch it but it was too skittish to let us.)

With winter coming, I hope someone owns/feeds this skinny little young kitty.

Anyway, we decided to call her Halloween, since it’s so close to Halloween and the kitty is black.

Here is Halloween’s first professional portrait:
