Note From the Photographer







HI! I'm Becky Anderson. I am a natural light photographer. I find that natural light captures the emotion and personality of those I photograph best.


I do the majority of my photographs outdoors for two reasons. One, I love the element that nature, with its deep hues and filtered light, brings to the photo. Second, the natural light in the openness of the great outdoors brings an artistic element to photos that is gorgeous and unique.

If you are interested in scheduling a session or have any questions, please e-mail me at b.anderson.photography@gmail.com

I hope you enjoy my capture of life's greatest moments.

I am located in Thornton Colorado and serve the north Denver area. Also willing to travel, please contact me.

Homegrown Monday....5280 Bliss



Wow it has been a while! I am still here and alive, but October was a whirlwind of craziness around our house. So I have decided to switch my Homegrown Fridays to Homegrown Mondays, because it seemed people weren't checking them out until then anyway. So here we go for our first Homegrown Monday and I am SO excited to introduce her. We seriously have some crazy talented people here in the Denver area! So no more talking from me..

When did you start your business?  
September 2010.  My husband and I were going to be empty nesters and my plan was to get a part-time office job.  The only way to have the flexibility that I wanted was to work for myself.  Opening 5280 Bliss was a birthday present to myself.


Tell us about your family?
Married with two sons in college.  I grew up with a father that loved vegetable gardening and a mother that loved to sew.  They raised four daughters and one son.  We all got our sense of humor from our dad and our artistic talents from our mom.

Tell us about your product: 
I sell personalized paper banners for special occasions.

My two favorites are Red Robin (bacon cheeseburger with cheddar and garlic fries) and Old Spaghetti Factory (hearty-meal with the mazithra and brown butter and a side of clam sauce).

What is your favorite color?  
All the shades of green found in nature. 




Favorite piece of clothing or accessory?  
Wedding band and hoop earrings.  Socks.  I love socks.

Favorite vacation spot?  
The beach with family.  The sound of the ocean relaxes me.

What makes you smile?  
The same things that make me laugh :)




When you have free time what is your favorite thing to do?  
Play tourist in our beautiful state of Colorado.  Ride our tandem.  Watch movies and tv comedies.  Be a couch potato.  Play Dr. Mario on the Wii.
