What is Iris Photography??

The Iris is the colorful part of the eyeball–the pretty part that we all focus on when looking at another person or animal. Every iris is completely unique, much like a fingerprint. There are many variations; irises with rings, irises with starburst affects, irises of blue, green, brown, yellow, purple! They are all special and breathtakingly beautiful! We want you to cherish this piece of art with a super macro, edited photo. You can combine your iris photo with that of a loved one and create a one-of-a-kind print that captures your love. You can even feature the whole family and combine all the irises in one piece!

How did this Iris Photography idea come about? 

Owner, Mindy Bryant, was traveling abroad with the family and noticed that Iris Photography was a growing trend in other countries. People were thrilled to see a close-up of their eyeball and take home an image that could be used as their own custom art. It was surprising as this does not exist in Colorado! This discovery got her thinking, and she decided to take off on an adventure of adding this service and new business addition to Edge Optics! Having a third exam lane open, Mindy contact Richard Mauro-Ricchiuti, a long-standing and well-known photographer of Northern Colorado and asked him to partner up on a new venture! Richard was excited to try something new and branch out in this new style of macro-photography. Together, Mindy and Richard developed some systems and processes to offer this awesome new art form!

We will be offering this service regularly throughout the week, focusing on Tuesday and Thursday open hours for people interested in getting their photo taken. Hours are flexible and Richard will work on an appointment-basis as well. We will also be featuring our Iris Photos and Services during First Friday Art Walks as a regular monthly event!
