Chris, Jon and their four children arrived in the Flagstaff mountains just outside Boulder, CO for their super-fun family session! Beginning with a hike to the top of the Lost Gulch, this family was up for the adventure to create unforgettable moments.
Obviously, they know they are making this precious moment in their lives last forever.
Lost Gulch
First of all, let’s mention how much we love Lost Gulch! No matter what the session is, Lost Gulch always provides us with the perfect backdrop for some jaw-dropping images. Located atop Flagstaff mountain just 5.5 miles west of Boulder, there is so much depth and vastness at this viewpoint. For instance, from the cliff-top, you can see all the way past Nederland into the Indian Peaks Wilderness and Rocky Mountain National Park. I mean, how could it not leave you awestruck?
Family Fun!
Okay, enough about the location and let’s move onto this gorgeous and friendly family who shined bright at Lost Gulch Lookout! Just a short 0.1-mile climb from the north parking lot, Chris, Jon, and their four adorable youngsters arrived at the look-out point. They all appeared dashing and ready to take on anything this session had to throw at them! The dress styles were color-coordinated from brown shoes to cream and denim clothes. Their daughter was wearing a beautiful salmon colored dress to add a splash of color. Coincidently or not, the salmon-colored dress ended up being a perfect contrast against the overcast sky! Well thought out, if we do say so ourselves.
A family session provides great memories that will be forever treasured. But it doesn’t stop there! These sessions also help bring families closer together. Freedom is happiness. We love to capture candid moments and make sure that everyone is super comfortable in front of the camera! Interested in a family session with From the Hip Photo? We would be
