Smitten & Swoon is a Boulder photographer specializing in newborn, baby, child & family photography in and around the foothills of Boulder, Colorado. My style is influenced by the golden light of Colorado, fields swept by wind, big skies and rocky mountains. I am inspired to bottle up all the love and all the magic of our lives.
I photograph clients along the Front Range of Colorado including Fort Collins, Longmont, Boulder, Denver, Cherry Creek, Highlands Ranch, Westminster, Lafayette, Arvada, Aurora, Thornton, Wheatridge, Lakewood, Centennial, Golden, Broomfield, Louisville and beyond. Out of state clients who are willing to travel to Colorado can book photo sessions with me.

I am an award winning photographer located in Boulder, Colorado. I specialize in newborn, baby, family and high school senior photography around the fields and foothills of Boulder. I graduated with a master's degree in education, but it wasn't until my son was born and we moved to the Caribbean that I picked up a camera and never looked back.
I want your photography gallery to capture this priceless moment in time so that you have it to look back on forever. Surrounded by wildflowers, golden pastures, a rustic barn and mountain views, my little home studio is where many of my photo sessions take place. I am inspired by waterfalls of light, by golden hour and by warmth.
As a mother of two, I believe there is nothing more valuable than the love I've captured with my camera. The memories contained within the yearly photo albums I've made are priceless heirlooms that grow more valuable every year. I want you to value the photographs I take for you as much as I value the images I take of my own children.
When your baby is placed in your arms for the first time it is like someone handed you colored lenses after knowing only black-and-white - - so changed is your heart. The unconditional love and unimaginable awe are unmatched in this world. I know the greatest gift you can give yourself is photography to remember the miracle of this time.
I want to help you celebrate this huge milestone in your life and create artwork you will treasure for years. When is the next time you will have a photo session all to yourself to mark the accomplishment of one of your biggest milestones yet? Your wedding day? When your babies are born? Senior photo sessions are unique because it is quite often the first and last time a photography experience is devoted only to you.

We absolutely loved working with D'Ann for our son's newborn photos. She created the perfect atmosphere for a stress free photoshoot and I just thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience from our first contact through to picking up the final product which I must say was absolutely breathtaking. We will cherish these beautiful photos for the rest of our lives.

D'Ann is a true artist and incredibly professional. My family is not inclined to feeling comfortable in front of a camera but she made each one of us feel so at ease for our portrait session. We were looking to capture the family we built in Colorado, prior to relocating out of state and now have stunning art to decorate our new home with. The images were incredibly natural and truly breathtaking. We can't thank you enough, D'Ann for seeing us and capturing our love for the mountains and each other.

I have nothing but great things to say about D’Ann! Not only did D’Ann provide such high quality photos, she did an amazing job at giving us the experience we did not expect AT ALL! She was SO accommodating from the moment we signed up to the time we picked up all of our items. Having a 1 year old and 3 years old, my partner & I were so nervous to take pictures. We have never had family photos done where both kids were not crying or screaming...nor did we get at least 3 good family photos where both babies looked at the camera in less than 1 hour. D’Ann was so talented she was able to grasp

D'Ann is talented, professional and an absolute joy to work with. We had our family photos done last fall and our 2yr old and 6mo old baby weren't the most cooperative. I thought that there was no way we got a good shot of our family. However, D'Ann surprised us with many beautiful photos that we were able to use on our holiday cards! We also did a studio session with her to photograph just the kids and the photos are iconic and I will have them up on my wall forever. D'Ann is truly an artist and knows how to work with children really well. Highly recommend.

I love D’Ann so much and would not choose anyone else to photograph my family. She’s incredibly talented at capturing the light just right and making each shot look like a dream. D’Ann is also a very kind person. We found her to be very easy to work with. She was patient and understanding with our 3 year old and just amazing with our newborn. All of the components of our order (prints, birth announcements, photo books, metal portraits, etc) are high quality and will be cherished by our family forever. Immediately after our purchasing session my husband and I decided to book more sessions

Wow! Cannot say enough great things about D'Ann. Her attention to detail and eye for color and composition are incredible. We had newborn photos with our family done and now have beautiful pictures to treasure forever. In addition to her well outfitted studio, her garden is gorgeous. Highly recommend.

We have shared three of our most memorable moments with the amazing D'ann that we will forever cherish! She had done our engagement, wedding, and our first born photos hoots. She is the most warm person that gives her all in every shot that she takes with her camera. With sharing her own personal touch to every photo, the only thing that D'ann wants anyone to take away from their experience at her studio or other locations is the sense that you helped her make your photos personal. We will forever use her for all of our family photos to come.

We learned D'Ann was a baby whisperer, and amazing photographer, a few years ago with our firstborn. We recently had the opportunity to work with her again after the birth of our second. She's still a baby whisperer, still an amazing photographer, and she's also a toddler whisperer! Her farm is the perfect backdrop for outdoor photos, and her studio has everything you could possibly want for newborn photos. Couldn't recommend her more!

I cannot say enough good things about D'Ann the baby whisperer and her magical touch. We went to see her when our daughter was nine days old - we were sleep deprived and emotional, and this will forever be one of the days that we will remember as being calm and beautiful. Her warmth set us at ease immediately and her aura made us feel like we could sit back and relax while she took the wheel. Watching her love on our girl was more powerful than I could have imagined. Oh, and her photography is amazing! :) I would highly recommend her to anyone.

D'Ann is absolutely amazing! She is so great with babies and her skills with the camera are incredibly impressive! We just had the photo ordering session and she was such a huge help with picking photos and was never trying to push for certain ones. She would point out the positives of photos and let us pick. She has won a customer for life!! Thank you D'Ann!

I fell instantly in love with D'Ann's portfolio of work, and knew right away that I wanted her to capture my baby's newborn photos. What sets her further apart is all the extra intangibles that she brings to the table. There is something so precious, and the right moments are so fleeting in capturing those perfect first pictures of your baby. Working with D'Ann is to completely and effortlessly entrust her in this once in a lifetime opportunity. She is the baby whisperer--coaxing that beautiful smile, soothing and lulling the baby back to a blissful slumber, and creating a serene
