Welcome to Colorado Springs Daily Photo!


Hi, I'm Tamera, a professional wedding, portrait and boudoir photographer in Colorado Springs. But this blog isn't about my professional work; no, it's a daily love note to my beautiful city, where I've lived for most of my life. I love it here and I hope you enjoy seeing Colorado Springs through my eyes and lens!

A secret garden


Last week my mom asked me to drive her to a friend's house, CJ. As it turned out CJ and her husband Ken have a beautiful backyard and garden. Glad I brought my camera with me! I love it when people have a perfectly nice front yard but an AMAZING backyard. It's kind of like a secret grotto, a private little paradise. Ken made many of the things that you see in these pictures. What a handy guy! (Not to mention creative.) And CJ's a great gardener! In fact, I went back there today to give her a few plants from my own garden. Maybe next year I'll get a chance to see how they're doing!
This little contemplation garden is dedicated to CJ's late mother, who coincidentally was my neighbor for years. Her favorite color was blue.

I would love to have a bench like this but it's one of a kind -- Ken made it!




There's even a water feature! I'd love to have a water feature in my backyard some day. Something Japanese garden-y.
