Sanctuary Spa – Old Town Fort Collins

At the beginning of December I had the honor of photographing some of the services that are offered at Sanctuary Spa in Old Town Fort Collins.

If you haven’t been there before, RUN don’t walk. The spa is stunning and so relaxing. Summer is the owner, and she radiates joy and peace.

If 2020 has left you tired and in need of some self-care, Sanctuary Spa is the perfect place for you. You can find services there, from stone massage to facials to reiki.

If you visit this reviving spa, let me know what you loved about it!

Hey There, Hi There!

I’m here! I built a new website because I was wanting to switch hosts, and so now I need to update all my blogs. Which I’m kind of excited about because my blog has been needing a face lift. SO here I am, this is me:)

For years I have dreamed about having a photography business, but let’s be real… I’VE BEEN BUSY. We had 4 kids in 5 years all while owning a few businesses, buying a few houses, and moving a few times. 

Finally in 2019 we were preparing to sell one of our houses and my brother hired a photographer to take photos of our house for the MLS listing, and I watched the guy taking pictures of our house, and thought “I could do that!” 

That was it.. that’s where this business started. I started out doing Real Estate Photography, with the lofty hope of shooting multi million dollar listings.. That hasn’t been the case. While I have shot some beautiful homes, I found that I wasn’t able to be quite as creative as I wanted to be.

As I mentioned before, I have 4 SWEET children, so my time is somewhat limited. ALSO, if I am going to take time to do something for me, I want it to be a valuable use of my time and something that I really enjoy. So I started researching other types of photography relating to businesses and I realized that Brand photography is a thing. 

So I stepped into the creative corner of brands and businesses and entrepreneurs in August 2020. I never want to look back. I have loved every single brand shoot I’ve done, every single lifestyle shoot I’ve done, and every single small business shoot I’ve done. 

With every shoot I improve my skills and technique. And honestly, I am enjoying all of it. I’ve learned so much in the last 5 months in regard to photography, small business, social media, marketing, and web design.

I hope you’ll stick around and see where this fun little gig takes me!
