I was so excited to meet up with Erin and Chris for their Missoula summer maternity photos. I hadn’t yet connected with them because their maternity session (and upcoming newborn portraits) were a gift from Erin’s sisters. (Side note: what an amazingly thoughtful gift to give!)
When I met them for their maternity session, it turns out that Erin and I had met a few years back during the “For Women’s Only” ski program at Snowbowl. (Funny how small towns work like that!) It was so nice to see her again in this new stage of her life, and we had such a fantastic time making images to celebrate her mama-ness.
Their 10-year-old border collie mix, Lyra, also joined us for our shoot, and was such a trooper even though she seemed a little confused that we weren’t all going for a longer walk together and kept stopping a lot to take photos.
We had such a beautiful evening to make Erin, Chris, and Lyra’s photos. Mother Nature treated us to perfect light, with gorgeous cottonwood fuzz floating around creating a sparkle-like effect.
Erin and Chris’s little boy is due in early August. Erin told me she can’t quite wrap her mind around his arrival and meeting him for the first time. “What will he look like?” she mused. She and Chris are beyond giddy to meet their little man.
Erin, Chris, and Lyra! Thank you for such a fabulous session! I loved everything about your shoot, and I’m just so excited to meet your little boy very soon!
On the docket:
Editorial shoots, brand sessions, portraits, and weddings — stay tuned!
Cheers,
