FEATURED BUSINESS
Lepik Photography
We are an award winning husband and wife photography duo. Currently we reside in Southern Colorado and love capturing special moments that will last a lifetime. Photography for us is not just a job but a passion. We each have our own love of it in different ways.
About Josh and Kristan
Josh’s journey with photography started at 10 years old, growing up in Montana next door to a photographer that worked in a local camera shop and often shot for National Geographic. He showed Josh the most beautiful parts of Glacier and Yellowstone. They would capture shots of big horn sheep, wild bison, bears, eagles and the most epic landscapes. The passion grew until Kristan gifted Josh his first DSLR before a trip to Hawaii in 2010. From there, he realized he had a gift to share taking photos of people. It has been full speed ahead since then!
Kristan’s journey with photography began in her twenties when she began using her artist’s eye combined with her knack for making delicious food to create and capture edible art. Her ability to perfectly light plates of food quickly grew into a passion for detail shots. Kristan’s ability to see the world differently allows her to utilize light in interesting ways and allows our clients to experience unique photos like they have never seen before. Kristan’s favorite part of photography is getting to use her artistic eye to create original artwork for others with imagery. Kristan believes there is beauty to be found in everyone and she helps bring this to light in each person she meets.
Pueblo Levee Walk 2026: A Vibrant Community Celebration Along the Arkansas River
On Saturday, June 6, 2026, the Pueblo Downtown Association successfully hosted the latest edition of the Pueblo Levee Fun Run/Walk (also known as the Pueblo Levee Walk). The morning event drew participants of all ages and fitness levels for a scenic 5K along the iconic Arkansas River Levee in Pueblo, Colorado.
Event Highlights
The day began early at Rapids Place / Pillars Park with a 7:00 AM start. Runners and walkers enjoyed a refreshing route along the levee trail, taking in the stunning views and the world-famous Pueblo Levee Murals. This extensive outdoor gallery, once recognized by Guinness World Records as one of the longest continuous mural projects, provided a colorful and inspiring backdrop.
Participants appreciated the relaxed, inclusive atmosphere—many opted for a leisurely walk or jog while soaking up the morning sun and community energy. Post-event festivities at the park likely featured food trucks, vendors, music, and opportunities to connect with neighbors, continuing the tradition of previous years.
Community Impact
Proceeds from the event supported the Pueblo Downtown Association’s ongoing efforts in downtown beautification, business promotion, and community activities. Registration included commemorative shirts for early sign-ups, and the event reinforced Pueblo’s commitment to active living and appreciation of its natural and artistic heritage.
A Growing Tradition
Building on the success of prior years (such as the well-attended 2024 and 2025 editions), the 2026 Levee Walk continued to grow as a beloved local tradition. It offered the perfect blend of fitness, art, and fellowship in one of Pueblo’s most distinctive settings.
