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!

I’ve got another beautiful family photography session to share with the world today. A couple of weeks ago I met these fun people up in the mountains to capture them together while they spent time as a family on vacation over the 4th of July holiday week. They’ve come to Colorado before and really like […]

Seeing the couples that I’ve photographed weddings for grow into a new and bigger family together has got to be one of the greatest joys of being a photographer. It feels like it was only last year that I photographed Jacquie and Brock’s wedding up in Steamboat Springs but in reality it’s been almost 3 […]

It wasn’t too long ago (late December to be exact) that I photographed this family at their beautiful home in the foothills. So I was a little surprised but not unhappy to hear from them again so soon! Turns out they wanted to do some more family photos, but this time they were looking to […]

I love this family featured on the journal today! Their mom, Kellie, is a wonderful photographer herself and our styles are pretty similar. Whenever I can’t fit a family into my schedule I always tell them to check with her. Unfortunately, she’s on a photography break right now but I’m hoping she’ll start accepting clients […]

The wedding I’m sharing on the journal today is a wedding where I have a little bit of history with the bride’s family which is pretty cool. You see, way back in July of 2008 I was in my 2nd season of photographing weddings and I was so lucky to get to photograph the bride, […]

I had a super fun time photographing the family featured on the journal today. I met up with them at the gigantic parking area at the entrance of highway 6 in Golden which was already full of cars. We decided to drive up together in the same car just in case there wasn’t much parking […]

Stapleton Family Photographer in Denver As a Denver Stapleton family photographer, I’m very pleased to share these cute extended family photos created at Bluff Lake Park. Around 4 years ago I had the pleasure of photographing this family up near Boulder at one of the trails with views of the rugged mountains in the backdrop. […]

For smaller more intimate weddings nothing beats renting a gigantic pretty mountain lodge with awesome views. That’s exactly what Lindsay & Coty did in early September for their wedding day here in Colorado. They live in Kansas, but Lindsay’s been visiting Colorado with her family since she was little and it’s like a second home […]
