As one of the Denver family photographers who adores exploring new locations, I’m always on the hunt for hidden gems. While I love the classic mountain backdrops, there’s something magical about discovering a spot that offers a fresh feel and endless photo opportunities. This year, I was lucky enough to stumble upon a ranch in Livermore that’s absolutely breathtaking—and I can’t wait to bring my Denver families here for their fall minis and family photo sessions.
The journey to this ranch is an adventure in itself. I first noticed this dreamy property while traveling for a maternity photoshoot in Red Feather. Even from the road, the mountain views and wide-open pastures had me daydreaming about future sessions. Fast forward to connecting with Lisa at Circle Pine Co., and before I knew it, I’d arranged a date to bring my own crew out for some photos.
From the moment you turn off the main road, the setting is pure Colorado bliss. Winding through pastures with mountain backdrops, it feels like you’re stepping into another world—one that’s perfect for Colorado family photography.
Upon arrival, I was like a kid in a candy store! The ranch features a picturesque white and red barn, a vintage silo, an old 50’s truck, golden aspen trees lining a two-way road, and so much more. Each setting has a unique charm, offering endless ways to capture warm and playful photos. I could’ve spent hours exploring every corner, imagining all the different backdrops for family sessions, maternity shoots, or even senior photos. I know all Denver family photographers alike will fall in love with this location as much as I have.
One of my favorite things about this ranch is how it instantly put my kids at ease—talk about creating a relaxed, playful vibe for photos! They were over the moon to discover barn kittens (just born!) and watch the cow they were able to pet. My daughter, Hadley, ran free, giggling as she explored the wide-open spaces. It reminded me of my own childhood in the country. This easygoing environment naturally brings out genuine smiles and laughter, guaranteeing that your family portraits will be full of warmth and authenticity.
Every year, my Denver families who come out for fall minis look for a new location that still captures the essence of Colorado. This Livermore ranch checks all the boxes: it’s surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, has unique photo spots like barns and vintage trucks, and offers an immersive experience that’s anything but ordinary.
Plus, the ranch’s relaxed atmosphere means kids can safely roam and play—a huge bonus for parents who want stress-free, playful family photos. If you’re looking for variety, adventure, and that authentic Colorado feel, you won’t want to miss out on this spot.
