Edina Clagett | Fort Collins Portrait Photographer | Beyoutiful Portraits Photography

My WHY: As a busy mother, wife, and Fort Collins Photographer, business owner, I know how challenging it can be to prioritize yourself and invest in self-care. But from personal experience, I know that no matter how difficult it is, we owe it to our family, to our children, to EXIST IN PHOTOGRAPHS. After all, let’s face it, we’ll never get any younger, and if you’re like me, we probably won’t get any skinnier either, no matter how hard we try.

MY STORY

I grew up in Budapest, Hungary. I fell in love with portrait photography in my twenties, while traveling through over 50 amazing countries in the world. But after meeting & marrying a chef, my dream of becoming a National Geographic photographer remained just a dream. What continued was the love for life & adventure living in CO, DC, St. Maarten, and GA. It wasn’t until the birth of my twin boys in 2010 that I decided to pick up the camera once again and rekindle my love of photography. And just like that, Beyoutiful Portrait was born.

Some portraits from my adventures as a solo traveler

My passion for womens’ portraiture started when my first boudoir client in 2013 confessed what those pictures meant to her. I remember listening to her teary-eyed with goosebumps on my arm, and right then and there, I knew THAT WAS IT! This is what I want to do for the rest of my life. This is the kind of experience I want to offer to my clients. All women could use a boost of self-esteem, a reminder of their self-worth. And I never looked back…

Since then I have photographed hundreds of amazing women with whom continue to have an amazing relationship up to this day. Their bravery, their trust and their testimonials fuel my passion every single day!

I feel blessed to have found a true meaning to my life and feel eternal gratitude for EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU, who has helped me get to where I am today!
