Welcome to Colorado Springs Daily Photo!


Hi, I'm Tamera, a professional wedding, portrait and boudoir photographer in Colorado Springs. But this blog isn't about my professional work; no, it's a daily love note to my beautiful city, where I've lived for most of my life. I love it here and I hope you enjoy seeing Colorado Springs through my eyes and lens!

More of the Same

Just another view of Helen Hunt Falls, maybe a little more arty farty than the one I posted yesterday.

Despite the Drought, Helen Hunt Falls Doesn't Look Too Pathetic

Since I was at the Broadmoor last week I popped over to Helen Hunt Falls for a peek. We're enduring a terrible drought this year and I had low expectations. I thought it would be a mere trickle of water, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that the falls still look reasonably good, all things considered.

Sunday Style!

I took this picture a few months ago while waiting in a line at a convenience store. The man ahead of me in the queue was sporting this flashy wristwatch so naturally I asked him for a photo. He told me that he had bought it in Hawaii, which explains the abalone. That's quite a watch! It may be a bit much for most guys, but it looked perfect on him.

The Ugly Duckling

Spotted in the lake at the Broadmoor a couple of days ago: a duck's bottom! Or is it? As you know, the fabled "duckling" in the story turned out to be a beautiful swan, just like this guy.

I've spent the last two days photographing a corporate event at the ever photogenic Broadmoor. Here's the main building from across the lake.

Dying for Shade

I took this photo on Sunday, when the temperature reached about 95° F (35° C). To make things worse, I had a photo shoot outdoors that lasted two hours. I thought I was going to die, I was so hot! (Thankfully I did bring a cooler filled with ice and water bottles.) I ran by my studio when the shoot was finished and grabbed this shot outside my building. In summer, the sun here is extra intense because of the altitude, so big trees like this are a godsend. I'll take any shade I can get.
