Springtime Engagement Session

I love that you can “feel” the Taos springtime in these engagement photos. The buds are barely coming out on some of the trees and bushes, and there are small leaves on the others. The light green is radiant in the backgrounds and the earth tones are still prevalent from winter’s slow departure.

The Lovely Christina Lucia Peralta Ramos

Christina Lucia is the granddaughter of the fashion icon Millicent Rogers. Christina was born and raised in New York City, her father Paul Peralta-Ramos is the great, great grandson of Henry Huttleston Rogers one of the founders of Standard Oil. Her Mother Inga Rizell, a Swedish model, has been recognized on Americas ‘Best Dressed’ list for her Elegance.

Christina has been modeling since she was a child. After graduating from The American Academy Of Dramatic Arts in New York she had a career as an ingenue in Hollywood. She has appeared in films, television shows, stage productions, and music videos.

Fall Leaves and Love

After a few cold nights in Taos, we were worried that our “autumn leaves” photo shoot would be a bust! We found some brilliant colors in the gardens of the Henningsen Fine Art Gallery. The pond reflected the yellows beautifully, the leftover berries brought color and texture to the bare trees, and the leaves on the ground were so photogenic as a background!

Autumn in the Bosque

The fall foliage at this time of year is brilliant! I photographed this engagement sitting down in the trees by the Tamaya Resort in Bernalillo, NM. The orange and gold leaves on the trees gave our photos a beautiful autumn feel.

Photos of a High School Senior in Penasco, NM

August, September, and October are busy months for Poetic Images because of all of the high school senior portraits we do! Our “senior pictures” sessions last about an hour and a half and we shoot approximately 100 digital photographs during that time. We encourage seniors to bring up to six different outfits so we can capture the spirit of the student in clothing that mom/dad like AND clothing that the senior likes. We take photos of both traditional and contemporary poses so there are pictures that suit everyone’s taste!

Modeling Shots for Nickelodeon!

Gaia is nine years old and an amazing little girl! She followed her photographer’s instructions without hesitation as she smiled her way through this photography session. Gaia loves to model and dance and sing. She made this modeling portfolio for Nickelodeon as she is pursuing an acting career where she can put her talents to work!

Summer Family Photographs

Poetic Images been photographing this family for over six years, what a joy to have such fun people for repeat business! During your family photo session, we will take photos of the group of you as a whole, individual photos of each family member, and “couples” shots (Mom/Dad together, mom/child together, dad/child together, children together, etc). We also encourage your family to bring a change of clothing for some more dressy photographs and some more casual photos as well.

The Perfect Gift: A Smile!

Sunshine and Kat had these portraits taken so they could give their mom an awesome birthday present, their smiles! Portraits can be necessary in many different aspects. Maybe you need a high school yearbook photo, or a photo to put on your business card? Recently I have had a lot of calls for headshots for various dating websites or for Facebook profile photos. Portraits also make incredible gifts for Mother’s Day or Father’s Day, for Christmas, or to send with your son/daughter when they leave for college. Give Poetic Images by Deanna a call to schedule your portrait photo session today!

Erika is very active in the Taos community as she teaches different yoga classes privately, at Shree Yoga, and at the Northside Health and Fitness Center here in Taos, NM. Erika specializes in prenatal yoga, children’s yoga, and advanced adult yoga. We took these photographs for Erika’s website and for advertising purposes. Call for your business photo session today!
