October 15th UPDATE: Fall mini sessions are finished for 2023 (and were awesome!!). But you can still sign up to my VIP list directly below to be the first to know about future mini sessions and discounts I occasionally offer. Yay! (Have no fear, I won't send you 1 billion messages either. Just the important stuff like occasional discounts and freebies!) Oooooooh, boy! Am I ever thrilled to announce this: for the first time ever, I am offering Missoula Montana Mini sessions — specifically, fall family minis! (Just in time for those holiday cards. 😉) But even more exciting is the fact that 50% of proceeds support Earth Within ...
Jennie, Terre, Clara, Riley, Erin, Iona + Thea :: Missoula lifestyle family photos
In my opinion, there's nothing better than getting to make Missoula lifestyle family photos, especially when you have the opportunity to work with folks as delightful as Jennie, Terre, Clara, Riley, Erin, Iona and Thea are. Erin and Riley and their daughters Iona, 5, and Thea, 4, were visiting his parents and sister in Missoula, and we even managed to include Jennie and Terre's dogs, Zephyr, Pippin, and Clara's dog, Skadi in their photos! It was such a treat to capture the genuine essence of this super sweet family — and, to top it all off, we enjoyed a nice little sprinkle of fairies and magic, too. (I'm always a fan of that!) As a ...
Lauren, Garrick, Quinn + Burke :: Snowy Missoula family photos
The third time was the charm for Lauren, Garrick, Quinn, and Burke's snowy Missoula family photos! The weather had a mind of its own and kept misbehaving and raining, but things got a bit colder and turned to snow, so we went for it, and were treated to that in-between time in the autumn where the leaves are still brilliantly colored, but there's snow on the ground. Quinn, nearly 3, was a big fan of the colliding seasons and had a blast playing in the leaves, while also making a (face-down!) snow angel and some snow balls. She was absolutely beyond excited for our photo session and was all about running hither thither and yon. She ...
Sarah, Justin, Elise + Isabelle :: Missoula Montana summertime family photos
There's absolutely nothing, nothing, like getting to connect again and work with couples whose weddings I've photographed, especially when you get to meet their sweeter than sweet kiddos! Hanging out with Sarah and Justin for their Missoula Montana summertime family photos seriously felt like it was only yesterday that I'd photographed their wedding. And I'm so glad I was able to catch up with them during their Missoula visit! Their daughters, Elise, 6, and Isabelle, almost 3, were so cute in their matching dresses, and we managed to find some purple flowers for them to frolic in — talk about perfection! Purple is Isabelle's favorite ...
Tim, Courtney, Teddy + Violet :: Flathead Lake family photos
The ultimate compliment to me is getting to photograph families over the years and watch them grow together. I absolutely love getting to capture Flathead Lake family photos with Tim, Courtney, Teddy, and Violet. It's been a couple years since I last saw them (heyo, pandemic times), but it felt like we hadn't missed a beat in how we all hang out with each other. I just love their fun, spontaneous energy, especially when it involves some family "Twister" moves, haha! Eight-year-old Teddy and five-year-old Violet were eager to show me some of their gymnastic talents on their swing set (and on Tim, too)! The kiddos were extra curious about ...
Kristan, Ben, Lincoln + Cormac :: Missoula summer family photos at the University of Montana
I am always so happy when I hear from Kristan, Ben, Lincoln, and Cormac that they're back in town visiting, and that we get to make more Missoula summer family photos at the University of Montana for them! I've been photographing their family for several years now, and it is always an absolute delight to get to hang out with them, laugh together, and document their wonderful family! This year we decided to hike up the "M" trail a bit, explore the grasses, and have a blast laughing our heads off as we yelled Lincoln's favorite funny words. (I'll let you guess what a five-year-old boy might choose. 😉) We ventured back down to check out ...
Greg, Mary + Jeremiah :: Hamilton Montana family photos
Way back in November of last year, Greg reached out to me about making Hamilton Montana family photos of him, his wife, Mary, and their son Jeremiah — and he booked the session as a surprise Christmas present for Mary. Fast forward a bit, and we planned on photographing sometime in spring, but it rained and rained and rained, and I think we had to reschedule something like six times! However, even with all those reschedules and rain delays, serendipity was on our side, and we experienced the most gorgeous evening together. The wildflowers were even still in bloom due to our wet, cold spring. I met up with Greg, Mary, and Jeremiah on their ...
Kristie, Darwin, Isaac, Sophia + Noah :: Family photos at the Ranch at Rock Creek
It was such a treat to get to meet up with Kristie, Darwin, Isaac, Sophia, and Noah for their family photos at the Ranch at Rock Creek! They were visiting Montana from Florida, so our weather was slightly different than what they're used to. We've had a very, very wet spring in Montana (did you see what happened to Yellowstone? 😳) , and even though it drizzled during our entire session, we still all made the most of it together! I loved seeing how much fun their entire family has together — there were plenty of giggles to go around, some "mom adjustments" to hairstyles and good-natured joking, and the kids definitely know how to make each ...
Simons family :: Missoula wintertime family photos
It is always such a pleasure to get to photograph the Simons family. And their Missoula wintertime family photos this year were such a treat to make! I think we've hit all four seasons now in our images together (woohoo!), and I was pretty excited that Mother Nature decided to surprise us with some snow flurries! Snowflakes and photography are an absolute favorite of mine, and it just made their session even more fun and dynamic! That said, it was pretty darn chilly for our session, so kudos to everyone for making it work and bringing some smiles to the table before our faces froze! The snow and the cold wasn't two-year-old Brayden's ...
Katie, Anthony, Dominic + Luca :: Missoula Montana fall family portraits
I have absolutely loved getting to photograph Katie and Anthony and their growing family over the years. And their Missoula Montana fall family portraits this year were no exception! It was my first time meeting 2 1/2-year-old Luca, and I couldn't believe how much 4-year-old Dominic had grown since I last photographed him! And, of course, it's always so great getting to see Katie and Anthony again, and documenting them in their roles as truly amazing parents. We had such a wonderful time wandering around (despite a very smoky day due to a long summer of wildfires), and the boys had a blast playing in the sand, showing off their best ...
