Hi! I'm Mindy Sohl

I'm so happy you've stopped by to learn a little more about me! I live in the beautiful state of Colorado and I love doing lifestyle photoshoots in and around the Denver Metro area (Roxborough, Littleton, Highlands Ranch).

I'm a mother to two little girls and a photographer with a passion for capturing your beautiful moments. Motherhood (maternity, newborn, milestones, breastfeeding, mama & me) and family lifestyle sessions are my favorite, but I love capturing people in all seasons of their lives.

As a mamma of littles, I know firsthand how hard it can be to wrangle your crew and capture everyone looking at the camera at the same time. Not to mention, we mamas are often the ones snapping all the pictures, but rarely in the pictures with our bigs and littles. I get it. All of it, and I would love to get you and your whole crew photos you will not only love, but will look back on and laugh and smile about because you had such a fun time capturing those moments with me. My goal is to make every photo shoot a fun, laidback, carefree experience for everyone involved. From the newborn baby love to your not so enthused partner. My greatest joy is helping you, and everyone I'm photographing, feel like the very best version of who you are. That's where the magic happens and what I love most about photographing my clients. I delight in showcasing people’s natural smiles and laughter with stunning, Colorado landscapes in the backdrop.

In my early 20s I worked at a photo studio, where I first learned basic photography skills, which I've honed over the years as a hobby. I credit my husband for encouraging me to turn that hobby into Gracen Fae Photography in 2020.

Gracen and Fae are my daughters’ middle names, which feels so right. My girls are my greatest work of art. They bring me deep joy and inspire me daily to bring my best to all that I do. In 2018 I left my career to become an at-home-parent full time because I didn't want to miss any moments with them especially during their younger years. We spend our days playing outdoors in nature, exploring Colorado's parks and trails, jumping in puddles and getting covered in dirt. Photos are my primary way of telling my girls the stories of my childhood. I grew up in Africa (Liberia, Kenya, and Ethiopia), having experiences very different from theirs. Photographs make it possible for me to share precious memories from my childhood with them that they wouldn’t be able to grasp any other way. I love being a mama and pursuing my photography; two things I love deeply and that make my soul come alive!
