I met up with the Close family the other day to make some mother-daughter portraits in Missoula, as well as a few with their English Mastiff, Penny. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful evening - the clouds were gorgeously textured across the sky, the light softly filtered through them, and though it was a bit chilly, we all warmed up with a little walking. These two lovely ladies were radiant in front of the camera, their smiles glowing and laughter abundant. Thanks again for such a great session, ladies! It was so wonderful to meet you both, and Penny, too! On the docket: family sessions and ...
Shawn + Monica, Five Years in Love :: {Anniversary Portrait Session}
As you may have noticed, I've been a bit quiet on the blog lately. But it's because I've been busy! I jetted off to northern Wisconsin last week for a working vacation and also to attend a high school reunion. (I'm not going to tell you which one - you'll have to guess. ;) ) During my quick trip I was lucky enough to photograph some super awesome portrait sessions - and this was one of them! Monica and Shawn have been married for 5 years - happy anniversary, you two! They weren't entirely happy with the photos from their wedding (according to Monica, the woman wasn't as good as she had touted), so they wanted to get some nice photos ...
Angie and Ken’s Just Because! Photos – {Missoula Portrait Session}
Eeek! I've gotten a bit behind in posting sneak peeks from my photo sessions - life's been so busy! I met up with Angie, Ken and their handsome dog, Rivet. (I think I'm spelling his name right?) Angie wanted to have a "just because" photo session - which I love! We all had a nice time tromping about near the river, and Angie and Ken braved the chilly water for a few shots. Rivet also kept himself amused by barking at a few kayakers paddling downriver. Angie is a photographer, too, and wanted some portraits with her camera, so we had fun being a little camera-nerdy and taking pictures of one another. Here are my faves from our ...
It’s good to be a grad! :: University of Montana graduation portraits
Remember a while back when I had a contest going where all you had to do was tell me your favorite place to take photos and you'd be entered to win a free photo session? Katie was the lucky winner and she had me make some nice portraits of her after her graduation from the University of Montana's school of law. It was a gorgeous day - a bit windy and maybe slightly chilly - but it was much better than rain which was what had been predicted. Here are my favorite photos - congratulations, Katie! Cheers, -Kristine ...
