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!

Guest blogger Chris Mann


Since it's wedding season and I'm swamped, I asked some of my professional photographer friends to be my guest bloggers. I'll be showcasing one every Monday for the next month or two. I hope you enjoy this first image (positively breathtaking!) by the very talented Chris Mann of Tropical Imaging, who is lucky enough to live in an island paradise. In his words:

"This photo was taken at the end of a portrait session on Grace Bay beach, on the island of Providenciales in Turks & Caicos, in June 2008. If you haven't heard of the Turks & Caicos Islands before, they are a small island group at the far end of the Bahamas, and are a self-governing British Overseas Territory. It's a very small nation - total resident population about 36,000... but we get over 250,000 tourists a year!

"When this photo was taken, we had had a weather-front come through so there was quite a lot of cloud around and it was windy - not ideal weather for a portrait, but as so often happens here the clouds drifting away to the west made the sunset all the more spectacular. And the seagull flying by was a bonus!"

Thank you Chris for your beautiful contribution! It makes me want to jump on a plane and fly to Turks and Caicos right this minute!
