Estes Park Family Photographer

Most of the family sessions I shoot in Estes Park have one thing in common: the family doesn’t live here. They’re in town for a few days, often three generations at once, in a place they’ve been coming back to for years. They want one good frame with everyone in it before they scatter again.

I drive up from Castle Rock for these. Booking while you’re already in town is usually easier than trying to get everyone in the same place back home.

One session I think about a lot: an extended family of nine spent two weeks in Estes Park. They had been coming to the same place for 32 years, and this time they wanted the photos for a specific reason. I would rather let the client say it than paraphrase her.

“My extended family of 9 vacationed in Estes Park the last two weeks. My mom has advanced Vascular Dementia. My family has visited Estes Park many times over the last 32 years, and we wanted to make sure we captured this memory knowing it’s very well my mom’s last trip to our favorite place. I reached out to Tyson, and immediately I could tell he was the photographer I wanted to work with. He was prompt in response, kind, accommodating of my mom’s and family’s needs and his online gallery was simply breathtaking. His communication through the planning process was great and he chose an absolutely stunning location, while keeping my mom’s physical needs in mind. My entire family adored him and enjoyed our time together. He got our photos back to us in just a few days, and to say they are gorgeous would be an understatement. They are truly beyond what we hoped for and captured exactly what I had in mind. My immediately family is planning a Colorado ski trip in Christmas of ‘25, and we will most certainly be reaching out to Tyson to capture those memories as well! 10000% recommend reaching out to him!”
