elcome to the journal for April O’Hare Photography! Here you’ll find all of my latest photographic outings with the couples, families, seniors and small businesses that I get to work with and make beautiful photographs for. You may also see a personal post here and there discussing my life or my travels with my teeny family of one husband and three cats! Sometimes I even write advice articles with tips to help make your photo experience better which you can check out under the “Educational” category.

Take your time and look around! Type in the place where you’ll be getting married in the search box to see if I’ve photographed there before. At the bottom of the page I’ve highlighted some of my favorite sessions and weddings from the past. Grab a drink and have fun going down the photo rabbit hole!

Family Photos at Grand Lake Mountain Cabin Home

October 13, 2021

Grand Lake Extended Family Portraits at a Colorado Mountain Home

Back in September I traveled up to Grand Lake to meet this super fun family who were vacationing together at a really cool cabin-style mountain home in Grand Lake. They were there to enjoy the nature and time spent with each other as a family and the home they rented was a really cool place with neat swing beds. It also backed up right next to the Colorado River which we used as a backdrop for some of their photos so I could get a little bit of a mountain view for them. I really liked the look of the front porch and the doorway with the window boxes too. They were a blast to photograph and ran with my ideas which helped me create these cute and candid photos together. Check out some of my favorites below!
