I met up with Dawn and Eddie and their five adorable little girls, Jasmine, Jordan, Jersey, Jillian and Julisse the other day for their beautiful family portrait session. What an enjoyable time it was! We had a great time laughing and chatting as we made their portraits, and I've got to say - these girls blew me away with how inquisitive, sweet and polite they all were. We talked a lot about my cameras and my job and I got the sweetest little kid compliment from Jersey. She said, "When we were all walking together, I looked up at my mom and said, 'This is so awesome!' And I had to tell you too - this is awwwwesome!" Thank you all SO much ...
A Model Moment – {Siene’s Missoula Model Session}
Siene and I had a blast the other day making some new images for her model comp cards which she was planning on distributing at a competition she was part of in Las Vegas. The light couldn't have been more stunning and Siene couldn't have been more gorgeous - what a fun shoot! Siene definitely knows how to have fun with the camera and we definitely had a good time during our session. (We were even jokingly told by a police officer that we had better be careful or he'd have to cite us for stopping traffic. Haha!) Siene - thanks again for working with me - you're one beautiful lady and I hope you book all sorts of fun jobs, and the the ...
The Art of Love – {Charity and Matt’s Rock Creek Montana Wedding}
From what I've been told, there is an art to love. And Charity and Matt have certainly created a masterpiece out of their true love for one another. I had the honor of photographing their jaw-droppingly gorgeous wedding at a private family residence near Rock Creek, Montana. The day was hot, not a cloud in the blue, blue sky (very different from their snowy engagement session!), and the water sparkled with the sun as Charity and Matt gussied themselves up for their unforgettable day. Their wedding married not only their hearts, but their passions in life. Matt is an artist and Charity is a chef - she made both the huckleberry lemonade ...
Class of 2012! – {Cody’s Missoula Senior Photos}
I had a great time the other day meeting up with Cody, a 2012 senior year at Loyola Sacred Heart High School, and his mom for his awesome senior photo session! We visited some of Cody's favorite childhood stomping grounds at a creek and fields near his house (where he showed me some super cool soccer moves), and then hopped on over to Missoula's downtown area. Cody is such nice young man, and is involved in soccer, cross country and really enjoys programming - he's even made some robots! He's planning on taking a year off in between high school and college to jet on over to Germany and study abroad for a year. Cody, thank you for being ...
Made for Each Other, Like Peanut Butter and Jelly – {Jean and Nick’s Montana Wedding}
Jean and Nick share a mutual love for each other, and a mutual love of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. In fact, they got to know one another over a pb & j sandwich at a camp at which they both worked, and they made sure to incorporate all of their favorite things during their beautiful wedding day at the Double Arrow Lodge in Seeley Lake, Montana. From personalized dice for guests to a unique cake topper (made by Nick!) celebrating their fondness for the character Cthulhu from one of their favorite books, their wedding day was uniquely them. There were a few tears, lots of laughter and plenty of fun to be had. Guests enjoyed a ...
A Love as Grand as the Big Sky – {Katherine and Mike’s Montana Ranch Wedding}
There wasn't a cloud in Montana's big sky as Katherine and Mike prepared for their Montana ranch wedding out in Huson. In between having makeup and hair perfected, and donning tuxes just-so, Mike and Katherine stole moments to write each other sweet little love notes, delivered by dear friends. The day was hot and breezy (very different from their engagement session!), and family and friends buzzed with happiness, much as the bees did around the wildflower bouquets. Katherine and Mike's loyal dog, Buck, also made an appearance at their wedding as "ring bearer" and looked mighty content as he sat by his masters on their most important of ...
Getting Art Into Missoula Schools – {Paxson Art Project}
This past spring I had the wonderful opportunity to help produce a documentary about the Paxson Art Project taking place in Paxson Elementary School in Missoula, a program that was developed by the Zootown Arts Community Center (ZACC). Visiting artists came into the school and taught kids from kindergarten through fifth grade new art concepts. Currently these kids only receive 6 hours of art per year. Yes, you heard that right - per YEAR. I stopped by these visiting artists' classes and put together an informative video about the project which will be shown to folks around the area to hopefully help educate them about the need for art for ...
A Love, Pure and True – {Travis and Siobhan’s Missoula Wedding}
Travis and Siobhan were married at Travis's family ranch on "the back forty," a place filled with many fond memories for Travis - and now he and Siobhan have just a few more to carry with them as they embark upon their lives together as a married couple. The sun was shining and hot (quite a difference from the day we photographed their snowy engagement session!), a warm breeze blew, and family and friends' smiles shined brilliantly as Travis and Siobhan spoke their heartfelt vows to one another. Everyone was howling with laughter at the many wonderful and hilarious toasts presented to the new couple (Travis, my lips are sealed!) - and ...
Rainbows, Sunsets, Love…and a little Elvis – {John and Lisa’s Corvallis, MT Wedding}
Everything about John and Lisa's wedding at the Slack House homestead, which is owned by The Teller (a nonprofit wildlife conservation organization that owns 1,200 acres of wildlife preserve in the Bitterroot Valley), shouted their personalities - fun, beautiful and full of charm. From their hand-painted signs to the chalkboard menus to the strings of engagement photos posted around the property, John and Lisa's joy was ever-present. Their gorgeous, sun-dappled ceremony under two gigantic willows was filled with personal touches, heartfelt vows they wrote themselves, and a very moving reading by Lisa's sister Caroline. (It's ok Caroline, I ...
Golden Light and Great Smiles – {Hannah’s Missoula Senior Portraits}
When Hannah, a class of 2012 senior at Big Sky High School in Missoula, first e-mailed me about having her senior pictures done, she told me that she loves to have fun to the point where she radiates sunshine - and, I swear, she wasn't kidding! She glowed in her portraits, lighting up the frame with her smile, or taking your breath away with her big, blue eyes. We had such a great time, Hannah was gung ho to try out all my ideas, and she definitely rocked the several outfits she brought along! It's safe to say that the camera loved her. :) When Hannah isn't busy working her inner-model, she loves to spend time playing basketball and ...
