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!

Fountain VFD fire truck


My regular makeup artist, Pamela, was invited to a Halloween party, and she thought it would be fun to have me do a few portraits of her in costume. So yesterday afternoon found us at the Colorado College, in front of very gothic Shove Chapel, with Pamela dressed as Wednesday from the Addams Family. This beautiful antique fire truck was parked in front of the church. What a gorgeously restored vehicle! You can see the proud driver standing at the rear of the truck, giving me the stink eye. (Hey, I did ask for permission to grab a shot!) In my defense, I actually took the picture for Pat, since he was once a firefighter on the Fountain VFD. I thought he'd appreciate it :o)

A few minutes after I took this, Pamela and I moved off to another area to continue our photo shoot, and it's a good thing we did because a bride and groom soon emerged from the church and posed for a series of portraits with the truck. What would they have thought if they'd run into Wednesday Addams? Ha ha!
