I was giddy upon hearing from Daisy and Erik that they wanted to do another photo session with me while they were in town visiting from North Carolina - this time with their adorable little toddler, Woody! I was so excited to be seeing and photographing them again (I photographed their lovely wedding day a couple years ago), AND to be meeting their cuter-than-a-bug-in-a-rug little boy. Oh. My. Gosh. We had a blast. Woody was such a champ, and he showed us the fine art of tossing rocks into the river, reminded us of the simple pleasure of feeling sand sift through your fingertips, and treated us all to the absolute effervescence of ...
Downtown Walkabout – {Dustin’s Senior Photos}
Dustin, a 2014 senior at Hellgate High School in Missoula, first contacted me to do his senior pictures after hearing from his sister Ashley that he should check out my work. (Thanks Ashley!) Funny enough, Ashley was one of my students in my photojournalism class I taught at the University of Montana's Journalism School this past spring semester. So it was a treat to meet Dustin and get to work with him as well. We had a great time wandering around downtown and Dustin told me he loves hanging out with friends, soaking up warm weather (he grew up in California), and has plans to attend the University of Montana to pursue a degree in ...
These are a few of their Favorite Things – {Dusty and Tom’s Missoula Rock the Dress Session}
Dusty and Tom are so fab - first, remember their gorgeous Glacier wedding last July? Secondly, when Dusty told me what she wanted to do for her rock the dress session, I was loving how her goal was to incorporate some of their favorite things - golfing, their love of Missoula, their passion for the Griz and, the cherry on top - quintessential Missoula summer awesomeness: floating the river with beers in hand. We started out golfing a few holes and took advantage of some gorgeous Missoula vistas as well. Talk about a perfect day for all of what we had planned! After hitting the course, our next stop was the "M" trail at the university, and ...
Rocking the Dress, Montana-Style :: Lauren and Thad’s Day After Rock the Dress Session at Lake Koocanusa
Reason number 5 million and one why I think Lauren and Thad are the bee's knees: they are avid rock climbers AND they wanted me to document, quite literally, a rock the dress session for them the day after their wedding. When they first told me this, in my head I was all giddy and yelping and saying (in my head, mind you), "Can I get a heck YEAH!?!!!" (Though now that I think about it, maybe that wasn't all in my head.) Because 1. How completely, totally awesome. And 2. I'm a rock climber as well. Albeit a bit rusty after not having had a partner for a couple years, but I GET rock climbing. I get it. I love it. I understand it. I ...
Unveiling the Newest YWCA Recessionista Ads – {Featuring the Stylings of the ZACC and Adventure Cycling}
It's always so nice to be able to do something with my photography that really helps give back to the community and makes a difference - especially when it's as fun as these two shoots were. I had the pleasure of meeting up with three fabulous ladies from the Zootown Arts Community Center (ZACC) for their Recessionista shoot for the YWCA Secret Seconds Stores, and these ladies seriously rocked their images - and their clothes! I mean, look at them! They are some stylin' women! I can't wait to reveal more ads from their shoot as well. :) I also got to meet up with some folks from Adventure Cycling and have fun getting some action images ...
Tying the Knot in Montana – {Lauren and Thad’s Bull Lake Wedding}
Lauren and Thad - I just loved these two from the moment I met them. Not only are they awesome people, but they love to rock climb AND they were planning their wedding in Troy, Montana - just a hop and a skip from Libby, where I was born - one of Montana's little gems, tucked away in the northwestern corner of the state. Did I mention that they also told me they wanted to do a truly unique "rock the dress" session too? (You can see those photos here!) So it's no surprise that their wedding day was just downright awesome. The day was sunny and brilliant, and Bull Lake sparkled in the background. Lauren and her friends readied themselves ...
Kisses in the Swaying Grasses – {Megan and Jason’s Great Falls Wedding}
A warm breeze blew and played with Megan's veil as she saw her groom, Jason, for the first time. They kissed, there were a few teary eyes, and they smiled and hugged as they prepared to walk down the aisle and pledge their love to one another. Friends and family packed the chairs, fanning themselves with programs, and smiled as the wedding party made their way to the altar, and as adorable flower girls and Megan and Jason's dog, Emmi, soon joined them. Megan and her father linked hands, and I'm not sure there was a dry eye there as he gave her away. Tears soon gave way to lots of laughter throughout Megan and Jason's sweet ...
A Fondness for Flathead Lake and a Soft Spot for Horses – {Kristi’s Senior Portraits}
Kristi and her family have been visiting Flathead Lake in Polson for years, and so it was natural that she chose to do her senior portraits in a spot that means a lot to her, and one that not only featured the beauty of the lake and of Montana, but also horses - one of her absolute loves. :) Kristi will be a 2014 senior this year at The Overlake School in Redmond, Washington, and has been checking out the University of Texas and Texas A&M and dreams of going to college to pursue her goal of becoming a veterinarian. She has been working at a vet clinic the last two summers and she even worked at a horse rescue this past year as well. ...
A Lovely Lady, Her Horses and Her Dog – {Marty’s Corvallis, Montana Portrait Session}
I got a note all the way back in December from Emily who was so excited to surprise her twin sister Marty with a Christmas present of a portrait session for her and her four-legged friends, Patches and Cricket, her two horses, and Pele, her trusty dog. Patches and Pele are getting up there in years, so this was especially meaningful for Marty. And it was such a pleasure to photograph this session for Marty and her very well-loved animals. As it turns out, Patches likes to "work it" for the camera (I swear, she struck a few poses for me), and Cricket...well, she'll put up with the shoot, but she gave us some pretty hilarious expressions, ...
Love Beneath the Big Sky – {Brianne and Colin’s Missoula Ranch Club Wedding}
Brianne and Colin - these two are just so dang sweet. From the moment I met them, I adored them both. We had a blast during their engagement session waaaay back in the Montana snowy season, so I knew that their wedding would be even more amazing. And it absolutely was. Brianne's vision turned out beautifully. Even though the day started out with a few sprinkles, the clouds parted to reveal a bright blue sky and set the scene for a day full of happiness and love. Brianne beamed as she walked down the aisle towards Colin, her veil kissing her shoulders as she made her way to her groom. Laughter punctuated their vows and smiles shined ...
