The Lazio Family :: Stacy Ziegler Boulder Photographer

StacyZ — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 13:51:28 +0000

I don’t deny that I love families. I love how each of them interact differently, but all of them have their own language of love. Love for each of them and how in each movement they are beautiful as individuals and as a family. The Lazio’s are one such family. With three little boys their mom Sara knows every moment and breath of these three. Their language is definitely one of FUN!

Thank you so much for trusting me Sara! Sara is also an amazing photographer here in Denver. I love every family I photograph, but I must admit it really touches my heart when a photographer trusts me to capture their story.

p.s. Any tips on how to adjust a 5 year old’s wake up schedule? Do I just need to wake him up every day way earlier or adjust the time slowly?

Memories are for Him

Hi Folks! Long time no hello. Well much happened over the last month. We had my parents in town, Robert and I got pneumonia, I lost my iphone (we think it was stolen but we really don’t know…), went to Asheville, North Carolina…just had some crazy times. Good Times, but crazy none the less.

Well yesterday I was talking with a client of mine, Miss Heather Lawrence of Mommies Helping Mommies, and we were talking about how in this digital age we don’t have albums of our kids like I my parents had when I was growing up. I know my parents had bookshelves after bookshelves of our photo albums. Me – I have one. ONE! How sad is that? How WRONG is that! So last night while I waited for news on my new site (nope not a typo!). I went and found some pictures on one of our hard drives so I can work on our album. I will come back and show you what I make for my own family.

Here are two from last year when my mom and I took R to Build a Bear where he got to make his own T-Rex…complete with guitar and all.

Well in other news…my portfolio site is FINALLY LIVE! Please let me know what you think. You can get there by clicking here.

Time Warp Tuesday :: Stacy Ziegler Boulder Children Photographer

StacyZ — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 23:03:06 +0000

We lived in Folsom, CA at the time. Just built a new house and moved in to 4 bedrooms with just a 12 foot U-Haul. Rooms laid empty and every window, all 48 of them, were open for the world to get a sneak peak. We had no time to spare we unpacked the house and were set to drop off the U-Haul and meet the taxi there to take hubby and I to the airport. You see we were flying out that afternoon and the next day we were to be on our first cruise through the Caribbean. But before we left and without time to spare hubby took out a box and some thumbtacks. Out came some old blue cloth. It had a touch of grey at places and some gold. I had no idea what it was until he hung them up and there was a faded Galaxy, stars, space ships, Darth Vaders head and STAR WARS written all across. I think maybe even Princess Lea was there on those sheets. Yes folks…our brand new home all sparkly and clean had Star Wars sheets as window coverings. On the drive in the cab after we could relax I asked B what those were. Turns out homeboy had them since the 3rd Grade and had been saving them all this time. I chuckled and laughed and probably complained a little until we could save up for real blinds. I will never forget when the Hunter Douglas salesman showed up to sell us our blinds. He immediately fell over – no joke – laughing. When he could compose himself he was so excited saying they were the best temporary window coverings he had ever seen and that he too had those same sheets when he was in elementary school. He was sad his were gone, but oh no not ours for you see I am married to such a sentimental man…I have lost closet space to those special sheets in plastic on the shelf, but I know he treasures them, and I him so I won’t complain.

When these two showed up and mom showed me that they brought Light Sabers I was STOKED! I felt like I was capturing the joy B had with his little brother 30 years ago. Here are a few of my favorites from our mini-session together.

Snow Sessions :: Boulder Kid Photography

For some the snow is enough and parents are ready for spring. I know on a snowy Sunday a few weeks ago after going through our 4th coloring book in a week I so wanted to go outside and take advantage of the season. Coming from California, I never knew real seasons. Now I adore them. On Saturday, I went out and had a mini-session with little K spending about 20 minutes to capture some great images I know mom will cherish. Here are a few of my favorite pictures:

Who Is Roo???? Stacy Ziegler Photographer

StacyZ — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 23:11:07 +0000

Wow Sorry for being away! Isn’t it crazy how life attacks and you wonder where a month has gone? Well my little man after one try and was too sick got to go through and complete his surgery. Although it is a total routine surgery the mom in me was worried. I don’t know how a mom couldn’t be…but he is fine! YAY! His throat still hurts him and he did not eat for a few days, but just today he downed a whole bowl of spaghetti and ice cream. Not together, but each. The two randomly generated winners got their iTunes cards…but just so you know here are the two numbers “out of the hat”

Congratulations to Kelly & Anastasia!

Thank you so much everyone for giving me suggestions for Roo’s new name. I must admit it has been so hard to choose. My good friend Emily had the name Biscuit, and although I gotta tell you I was like What the Heck BISCUIT?!?!?! Em has said her name about a gazillion times and well…Biscuit has grown on me. Too funny sorry everyone it is obvious Emily had an advantage. That is why she did not get the gift card…heehehe, but instead two innocent bystanders did! Maybe Em will. I am going to give the name Biscuit a fair shot and see how it sits

Because no post is complete without a picture. Here is a little preview from the session I had over the weekend. Little R here is a sweetheart. His mommy is one of the kindest ladies I have had the pleasure of meeting as of late. Her kind nature is sweet with little R and his sweet demeanor is a true joy.

Who is Roo?

StacyZ — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 00:42:52 +0000

Many of you have seen our new little friend Roo pop up in the last few months here on the blog. Roo is a kangaroo that I commissioned artist Megan Horsch with Kaylee Bug Designs to draw. I gave some specific ideas such as I knew I wanted a kangaroo and I knew I wanted him to have a classic unique feel, but Megan really brought Roo to life. She was great to work with, and I adore Roo more than I thought I could. I chose Roo to be my little children’s portraiture mascot for some very specific reasons. A friend last Sunday suggested I share these here. You see for me Kangaroos are just the sweetest mommies in the Animal world. The way they hold the Joey’s close to them for the next year I just find amazing. I wore my son for our first year together and it was the sweetest thing for us to help with our bonding as mother and son. So in my little way it is a constant reminder our a mother and child’s bond…and thus Roo! Now I know I have not been too creative with her name. I am not married to the name Roo it has grown organically in the past few months, but I thought I would throw up a fun little contest

NAME MY ROO!!!

So Folks until Monday at 5:00 PM Mountain Time I will be taking names for Roo. I will on Tuesday draw a name out of the “hat” to select a winner. If I PICK a name there will be TWO WINNERS! One from the hat and the one with Roo’s New name! What do you win? Well I thought to make it interesting for EVERYONE from ANY Place – It will be a $20 iTunes Gift Card. Just a little sumptin’ sumptin’ to let you know how much I love ya all. So leave a name and get some tunes. Roo himself he is partial to some Jack Johnson…yummy…oh wait that is me!

Have a great weekend. My exciting Friday night is with that cute little man and some meatballs…Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs that is.

2010 More Fun Than Mr. Toads Wild Ride :: stacyZ Photographer

StacyZ — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 06:58:47 +0000

Yesterday I came here and talked about reflection, growth, and how life is about constant reflection. We are here to have constant growth…to live, love, learn and grow. Like I said, if there is anything I hope to do every day it is to follow those four words. Live Love Learn Grow. Today I attended the Sandy Puc’ tour hoping to do the last two, Learn & Grow. While I was there, I learned more about an organization I have heard about before called Now I lay Me Down To Sleep. As much as I had heard about the organization I never in a gazillion years thought I would be able to emotionally handle such a huge task. I spoke to a wonderful lady named Shanna. Wow. Talk about Living and Loving. I honestly do not know if my heart could handle this, but I am planning on seeing though if I am strong enough.

This year should be a big year for us here. Hubby, B, is finishing up Grad School and we are hoping at the end of 2010 he will have all his classes done preparing to walk June 2011. Lil’ R will probably start Kindergarten in September. Right now we are deep in the process of touring the local skills to make our selection. Right now I am booked up to February and only have a couple of spots available for February. I have some awesome programs to share so stay tuned to the blog to learn more. As of right now I am crashing out for the night.

And as my friend Em, says…a post is not a post without a picture. Here is a picture from the photoshoot we did here for the Dane Sanders Road Show workshop I hosted at my studio last December. Yes…I do have many things backlogged to come post about.

Happy New Years!

StacyZ — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 06:26:23 +0000

As we enter the new decade I know many are thinking about times of reflection and coming up with “resolutions”. On our annual drive to this year’s New Year’s Eve concert I asked him once again if he had a resolution. He said the same thing he said ast year, “Why do you need a special day to declare how you are going to improve? I don’t believe in resolutions we should improve at any moment”

True that ….

Last year, in addition to my blog I kept a more active handwritten journal it aided in just the task mentioned by my B. Just a small task that was immensely helpful and productive.

To each I wish you a fabulous year and a year of reflection. Here is one of my favorite pictures of the youngest brother and mom from my last session in December.

Santa Drives a Convertible!?

StacyZ — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 17:17:28 +0000

Is it Wednesday? It feels like it. The weeks are FLYING by!

Today I am photographing Santa at a cute boutique across the street of the studio called, Suburban Hill. I could spend hours inside this store. It is the type of place that has the cutest little finds for that special friend who has everything. Seriously come check it out. We will be upstairs in the loft today photographing the kiddos with Santa. Come on down! Santa will be with us from 1-3PM. Here is the flyer with the special packages. Don’t go to the mall support local business and see a fabulous Santa…I hear he is going to show up in a convertible.
