Let's get to know each other
Britt Sheafe : Family | Newborn | Senior Portraits
A little about me - I am a full-service portrait photographer as well as an elementary art teacher living in Breckenridge, Colorado. I have a passion for capturing fun-loving families, graduating seniors, and sweet newborns. While most of my sessions take place in gorgeous outdoor locations across Summit County, newborns get the special treatment — for my littlest clients, I create in-home studio sessions to make sure they feel safe and relaxed (and to make their parents' lives just a little bit easier).

“Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second.” - Marc Riboud
My goal, whether I'm photographing one person or a whole family reunion, is to capture the essence of each individual -- not just the perfect smile, the perfect angle, or the perfect backdrop. I want to preserve the beautiful details of a new baby, the goofball in the youngest child, the tenderness of a doting grandfather, the confidence in a young athlete. I want to help families share their love for each other with the world.
I find the best way to do all these things is to give subjects the freedom to be themselves, to move organically, to interact with their loved ones as if I wasn't there. Don't get me wrong, I will set up shots and make posing adjustments here and there to add that artistic refinement you might be seeking for a holiday card or graduation announcement, but the end result should look and feel natural. When you look back on your photos in years to come I want you to see authenticity.
