MOMMY & ME SESSION, DANIELLE & ANELLA | FORT COLLINS FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER | LISA O’DWYER

Being a mother of two boys has made me a better photographer of children and families. I am sensitive to the relationship between the parent and child, and I acutely understand the passage of time and the importance of printing photographs of this time. Also, what is particularly interesting to me is the bond and relationship between a mother and her child or children. This is something we all feel as mothers, but it is something that is rarely captured…

COYOTE RIDGE PRAIRIE FORT COLLINS COLORADO - FINE ART FILM PHOTOGRAPHY BY LISA O’DWYER

Mid-October, I went to Coyote Ridge Prairie which is a Fort Collins nature reserve about 10 minutes away from my house. I wanted to see how the prairie looked at sunset and shoot a roll of Portra 160 with my large format Pentax 6x7 camera. This is how it looked as the sun set behind the ridge. A new photography service that I am offering is personal commissions of fine-art film photography. This can be of homes, nature, landscapes, pets...anything…

OLD HOLLYWOOD STYLE GLAMOUR PORTRAITS - FINE-ART FILM PHOTOGRAPHY BY LISA O’DWYER

I am in love with Old Hollywood still photography... the poses, the costume and make-up, the lighting, and the look of film. I wanted to practice a little with lighting and B&W; film to recreate the look of a George Hurrell or Ruth photograph from the studios of the 30s and 40s. My friend was my lovely model for the afternoon. Isn't she stunning? Portraits captured in an Old Hollywood style and shot on beautiful traditional black & white film…

FAMILY SESSION AT SPRING CREEK CANYON - LISA O’DWYER FORT COLLINS COLORADO FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Family portrait sessions are a great time to get your loved ones together and document the year for your children's heirlooms. This session was held at Spring Creek Canyon park in Fort Collins at dusk. The beautiful color and texture comes from the time of the day, but also from the film stock I chose for this session. I think Zoe and Finn will treasure these family photographs from October 2013 when they are adults in the future! I have…
