| Senior Rock Star Tour June Edition
I am so happy to be able to share some of the photos with you from our Senior Rock Star Tour from this past June. I came up with a crazy idea a couple of years ago, and it has finally come to light. The concept for The Senior Rock Star Tour was to provide the seniors with an amazing paparazzi experience along with delivering great Senior Photos. I wanted to do something no one had ever done before, and as far as I know, think we accomplished that. I got together with 4 other amazing photographers. We had hair and make up artist their for the girls to get all glammed up. We then rented a huge 45 passenger limo bus, and took them to 5 locations throughout Denver where they are photographed by all five photographers. The other photographers were Art & Soul Photogaphy, Volkel Image, Dawn Gioia, and Allison Ragsdale. The day went off without a hitch, the kids loved it, and the energy was high all day. The kids came from all over Denver and got along great. You couldn't ask for more. All the photographers were whipped little puppies the next day. I have never been so sore. The next tour is July 22, 2009, if you are interested head over to the website and sign up at www.seniorrockstar.com. There are a couple spots left. Here is a sneak peak of photos from the day.

| Litttle Ava stole the show
Kammi and I have worked with Danielle quite a bit over the last two years. Danielle is an incredible Denver wedding planner, and is such a joy to work with. Her website is Something Classic Events. She makes every wedding run smooth as butter. Her blog is also updated with fantastic tips regularly, so check it out here. If you are looking for someone to help you with your wedding, she is the one you need by your side. This past winter at a wedding we were working at together, we talked about doing a family session when it got greener and warmer out here in Colorado. We scheduled a session to do some head shots for her, and get some family portraits as well. We met in Downtown Denver, their daughter little Ava just stole my heart. She is so precious, full of smiles and had no problem posing for the camera at all. While we were photographing we were trying to get Ava to look at the camera, a businessman in his 40's stopped right in front of her and sang to Ava, he sang"When you wish upon a star". It wasn't just a verse or two it was the whole song. How often does that happen in the streets, that a complete stranger will sing to a child on a photoshoot. That just made my day.

| Interview on Collages.net Blog
Kammi and I have had a great relationship with one of our vendors Collages.net. They started off 10 years ago as an online hosting gallery for our weddings and portraits. We have been using them for six years now. They have now turned into our one stop shop for hosting, prints, albums, canvas, greeting cards, etc. If you are a photographer and are not using them, check them out. Their product are fantastic, and their customer service ROCKS. Kammi and I were thrilled that they wanted to interview us and share some of our work on their blog.
Check out the interview here at www.blog.collages.net . The portrait that they used of us was done by the always fabulous and good friend Paige Elizabeth.
Hope that everyone has a great 4th of July.

| Mic & Justin Trash the DressKammi and I photographed Mic and Justin's wedding back in January. They are a fantastic couple. When they booked us Mic said she wanted to do a Trash the Dress session when it got warmer. We had originally planned on going up to the mountains in Evergreen for the session. The day of the session a wicked stormed moved in, so we changed locations to the Boulder Resovoir. Probably worked out for the best, because the mountain water is probably way colder, and Mich and Justin were game for getting in the water. It was a blast to see them again and we had a great time in the rain. Hope that everyone has a great 4th of July.

| The Past Finds me
Well with the power with Facebook to connect with old friends, I was tagged in a photo recently from my past. This photo is from my days at Florida State University back in the 1990's. Can't tell you exactly when, since I was on the scenic tour of collage. I liked school so much I decided to extend my stay for quite a while. Great memories while I attended collage. Like any other era, I cringe looking at the clothes and haircuts, it's too funny not to post. At least I had hair back in those days, and I was skinny too. I think I was a size 32 back then. I am sure we were all over 21 in this photo as well.
If anyone wants to find me on facebook you can here: http://www.new.facebook.com/rbothwell?ref=profile or follow me on twitter at RBothwell.
