Welcome to The Colorado Purple Lotus Doula, where I honor and photograph both the beauty of parenthood and the resilience of those navigating breast and gynecological cancer.


Colorado Purple Lotus Doula offers empowerment-focused photography services in Denver, Colorado, specializing in women’s empowerment and breast cancer empowerment photography. Through compassionate, trauma-informed imagery, I capture moments of strength, healing, resilience, and self-discovery for individuals at all stages of life and survivorship.


In addition to empowerment sessions, I offer photography that honors meaningful life moments and personal milestones, including motherhood journeys, family connections, and transformational chapters. My approach centers on creating a safe, affirming space where individuals feel seen, respected, and empowered—especially those navigating or healing from breast and gynecological cancer.

We have had the pleasure of working with Linnell three times and would highly recommend her. Doing photography with a baby requires a lot of planning on your feet and Linnell was great at providing options for poses, locations, and other options when we needed to. She is friendly and professional, and thanks to her skill and keen eye, we have gorgeous photography to treasure forever.

Heather

I have worked many photographers, and I can easily say Linnell stands out. Not only are her photos beautiful, she made the whole experience relaxing and joyful, which is hard to do with a toddler and a newborn. she made sure to ask me what outfits and poses i liked.I never felt rushed or stressed when my baby fussed. She was such a calming person, which is important postpartum. Whether you are looking for posed photos or candid ones, this is the photographer for you! Thank you so much again Linnell for a be
