Quick answer
Denver family photographers plan sessions around your family's ages, style, and how the images will be displayed, from polished group portraits to relaxed candids and at-home documentary stories. Rocky Mountain Photography offers outdoor, studio, lifestyle, mini, black and white, and large group sessions across Denver, each with a written plan and quote.
Families change fast. The baby who fits in one arm this fall is running away from the camera next fall, and grandparents who visit this summer may not make the trip every year. Good Denver family photographers help you capture each stage in a way that fits how your family actually is, not a one-size template.
Rocky Mountain Photography has photographed Denver families since Jeff and Nick Perry founded the studio in 2016. This page is the starting point for all of our family work, with links to each session style so you can find the one that suits you.
Different families want different things, so we offer several distinct styles:
Popular Denver locations include Washington Park, City Park, Cheesman Park, Sloan's Lake, and the red rock near Morrison. Studio sessions are available when weather, a newborn, or older relatives make indoor comfort the priority, and many families mix styles in one session.
A little preparation goes a long way. Schedule around naps and meals, because rested, fed children make sessions easier for everyone. Pick a palette of two or three colors and let each person wear a different combination, mixing textures like knit, denim, and linen. Avoid big logos and neon. Try outfits on ahead of time so nothing pinches or slips.
Timing matters for light. Outdoor sessions near sunrise or the hour before sunset give soft, flattering light, while Denver's midday sun creates harsh shadows. Bring water, a small snack, and a favorite toy for little ones, and plan a short break if the session is longer. Talk to older kids beforehand so they know what to expect. Most importantly, relax: we handle the direction, and children follow your mood.
Not every family needs the same scope. Mini sessions are short, single-location shoots that work well for holiday cards and families with toddlers. Our affordable family photography page explains how to shape a lean session without losing quality.
For reunions and multi-generation gatherings, large family sessions use a written shot list and careful posing so every branch is included. Families comparing photographers can read our guide to choosing the best Denver family photographers.
Maternity and newborn sessions are natural companions to family portraits and can be planned together for a consistent style through each new chapter. Planning a yearly session around the same season also builds a series that shows how your family grows from one year to the next.

“I have wanted to update my headshot for awhile now. I met these guys at a CREJ conference and figured it's time since it was a good value. I am very happy with the results because I don't look "posed." They made it fun and easy. I am very impressed with their aerial and drone work too as it pertains to the work I'm in.”
“If you're looking for the BEST photography company to work with, you've found it at Rocky Mountain Photography! Our company had so much fun getting our head shots taken! Jeff really knows how to get an authentic expression by making the experience fun! We love our pictures!”
“Jeff is an expert at what he does. He makes you feel good and allows you to be yourself, which shows in his pictures. His studio is professional and relaxing. I highly recommend Jeff for anyone looking for a great picture.”
I had a great time having my head shots taken by Jeff. He immediately made me feel comfortable and had me laughing in minutes which resulted in very natural looking smiles. Not only was the work professional and at a great price point but he also made it a fun experience. I highly recommend him for any business head shots!
"I thought my previous head shot was pretty good until I saw what Jeff did! Jeff and I talked about what I wanted my photo to "say" prior to the shoot and he was able to capture it perfectly. Because of his great sense of humor and relatable personality, I went from anxious and uncomfortable to having a blast in a matter of minutes during the photo session. I have and will continue to recommend Jeff and Rocky Mountain Photography."
Rocky Mountain Photography has taken the most basic, boring, and bland niche of still photography and revamped it into a thrilling adventure. Where the typical experience tends to have you waiting for the end, they have made a fun and comfortable environment to allow free expression to get that perfect shot. Your toughest choice is picking between several PERFECT shots, rather than trying to determine the least terrible.

Choose two or three colors and let each person wear a different combination. Mix textures, avoid big logos and tiny patterns, and dress for the location and weather. Start with the hardest person to dress and build around their outfit. We share a style guide before sessions.
Yes. Let us know how many people are coming so we can plan the shot list and session length. Larger groups need more time and a location with space, shade, and seating. Very large reunions are better suited to a dedicated large family session.
