kristenkiddphotography: This past week, Danny ended his fight with Tay-Sachs. In honor of him and his courageous fight, I wanted to repost this blog: I’ve thought a lot about Danny since my photo session with him and his family Dec 13th. He has Tay-Sachs Disease, which you’ve likely never heard of . Tay-Sachs, according to…

A certain generation will be elated to know that Jem and the Holograms lives! They apparently changed their names to Prince Rama and learned to write music epically better than Jem ever did, but I guarantee the same elation one had a five years old, dancing in the mirror with hair brush in hand singing…

As I passed Kate Ferencz in the bathroom of the First Unitarian Church, my initial thought was, “Wow. These hipsters have really kicked it up a notch.” Smeared in dirt (or makeup or something), tatters of shirt dangled. Yet, somehow neatly tucked into early 20th century boy’s shorts. This was the next level, clearly. It…

On this snowy day I’m compelled to share a camera phone image – something I rarely do. However, occasionally, a moment with phone in hand will produce something truly compelling. This snap shot of my neighbor, who I adore for obvious reasons, is one such moment. She is amazing and this will not be the…

Melissa has been my most faithful fan (besides my fiancé, David, of course). It was with great joy that I provided my fourth photo session with her beautiful family in five years, in which her fifth wedding anniversary was celebrated. At this point I really should give her a photo session rewards punch card. Sincerely,…

My roots in both; photography and advocacy took hold as they often do, at an unassuming age, without my knowledge of what was happening. My mother, a geriatric nurse, was somehow allowed to bring me to work with her. So, at the age of five, my father would drive me to town on his motorcycle…

At the end of my first session with Andrea, Dan and their, then, two year old son Christian, she disclosed that they hoped to have another baby in the near future asked me about a Watch Me Grow Series. The Watch Me Grow series documents the milestones of the first year of life. As a…

I’ve thought a lot about Danny since my photo session with him and his family Dec 13th. He has Tay-Sachs Disease, which you’ve likely never heard of . Tay-Sachs, according to the National Institutes of Health, is: “… a rare inherited disorder that progressively destroys nerve cells (neurons) in the brain and spinal cord. The…

I was referred to you by Beth Mehaffey. I am looking to get some professional photos of my family sometime in january. Its been a very long time since i have had some professional photos taken. Would it be possible for you to provide me with how to go about setting something up. Thank You. Cheryl Fetz.

Cheryl, Thanks so much for your inquiry. I’m grateful to Beth for sending you my way. She’s fantastic. We can definitely book a date for a family session in January. I do all of shooting on location at local parks, at the client’s home or other places of interest. I collaborate with each of my…

Recently I hiked a trail in Estes Park; a park within the much larger Rocky Mountain National Park. Simply put, it was the most beautiful hike I’ve ever experienced. I spent a lot of time just yelling at the mountains from atop vistas, which is odd. It’s just my go to response when I’m generally…
