Family, Generational, Branding & Women’s Portraits in Colorado Springs, CO
I believe every woman is worthy of being seen; not just for what she gives, but for who she is.
Through a guided, stress-free experience, I create portraits that showcase women in every season of life — from motherhood to milestones, business to becoming.
Charlotte Harloff
I’m Charlotte — a full-service portrait photographer based in Colorado Springs, specializing in portraits for women and the people they love.
I’m here for the ones who have had portraits done before… and didn’t love the experience.
The ones who felt awkward, unsure, or invisible.
With me, you’ll never be left guessing. I guide you every step of the way — from wardrobe to posing to choosing your final artwork. All you have to do is show up. I’ll take care of the rest.
I’m a homeschooling mom of three, an award-winning photographer, and a woman who deeply believes that you deserve to be seen. My sessions are calm, supportive, and fully tailored to your needs — because you’re not just another booking. You’re a story.
Let’s create something beautiful that honors who you are and what you’ve lived.

FAQs
I’m not photogenic. Can you fix that?
1
Yes , but not with Photoshop. I guide you every step of the way so you feel confident, relaxed, and actually like how you look. The “not photogenic” myth ends here. I’ve got you.
What should I wear?

Don’t worry — I’ll help you with that! We’ll do a wardrobe consult (often right from your closet) and style you in outfits that photograph beautifully and make you feel amazing.
What kind of sessions do you offer?
3
I photograph women and the people they love — which includes personal portraits, branding, boudoir, family, and multi-generational sessions. If it’s meaningful to you, we’ll make it beautiful.
Will you help me pose?
4
Oh yes. I’ll direct every movement, from your fingers to your chin tilt. You’ll never wonder what to do with your hands again. Ever.
Can I bring someone with me?
5
Absolutely. Whether it’s a partner, best friend, or your child, we can plan the session to include those closest to you; either for the full shoot or just a few special images.
Do you photograph men too?
6
Yes! I photograph men on their own and with their families or businesses. My heart is focused on helping women feel seen, but everyone is welcome in front of my camera.
