The Foss Family | Longmont Colorado Family Photography | Golden Ponds

April 4, 2019

Oh hello Foss family! Great to see your lovely faces gracing the blog again. The Foss family have been such wonderful, loyal clients and friends for many years. My photo sessions with them over the years have been better and better, as the kids grow and turn into such funny, lively characters. For this year’s Longmont Colorado family photography session we met at the always popular, Golden Ponds Nature Area. It’s easy to see why this location is such a popular one…it’s got so much variety. Within about a half mile area you have tons of trees, a little waterfall, ponds, benches, bridges, and more.

We were so glad that Golden Ponds was still showing some of the colorful fall foliage too. We got some nice golden fall colors, during the sun’s loveliest golden hour! Then, we were even rewarded with a beautifully vibrant sunset during our final minutes of their Longmont Colorado family photography session.

‘”Come, little leaves,’ said the wind one day,
‘Come o’er the meadows with me and play;
Put on your dresses of red and gold,
For summer is gone and the days grow cold.’
Soon as the leaves heard the wind’s loud call,
Down they came fluttering, one and all;
Over the brown fields they danced and flew,
Singing the glad little songs they knew.” -George Cooper.

What a great little poem about fall 🙂 Although we are in the first days of spring right now, I just know fall is going to be here again before we know it!

Thanks as always, Foss family! You guys make my job so enjoyable and worthwhile. It’s fun to see how much the kiddos grow each year. They sure are full of personality…and lots of energy too! I wish I had about half that amount of energy 😉 Don’t you?!
