This year Missoula has experienced an exceptionally beautiful autumn - and luckily Raina, Danny and I got to take advantage of all the beautiful colors before the wind swept the leaves off the trees a few days later. We walked around downtown, laughing and chatting, and laughing some more. Giggling, they told me the story of how they met when Raina swiped one of Danny's chicken strips - the rest is history. :) These two are just so utterly in love, and I can tell we're going to have an absolute blast at their wedding next year. Here's to you two, Raina and Danny! And many, many chicken strips to share. ;) On the ...
Colorful Leaves and Starry Montana Skies – {Annie and Josh’s Darby, Montana Engagement Session}
When Annie and I first started talking about me being the photographer for her and Josh's wedding, it was SO great to find out that she's from Wisconsin - because, though I was born in Montana and have spent nearly half my life here, I grew up in Wisconsin and have a special fondness for it in my heart. And fellow Wisconsin people are just kind of awesome. Doncha know. (Sorry - couldn't resist.) I met up with her and Josh at the bed and breakfast they are caretakers of in Darby (such a sweet place!), and Montana was pulling out all the stops for us - blue skies, colorful autumn leaves, golden light....I could go on and on. After ...
A Season for Smiles – {The Braun Family’s Missoula Portraits}
Cute kids, golden leaves, happy smiles - that's about the definition of perfection, isn't it? Maddy, Ali, Nick, Rachel and even Sunny the dog, and I all had a great time on a beautiful autumn afternoon making some photos of them together and individual portraits as well. We giggled, we chit chatted, and we definitely laughed. Great job, you guys! Keep those beautiful smiles and laughter coming! :) On the docket: portraits, one last wedding for the year, and more portraits! Don't miss out! Cheers, -Kristine ...
Majestic Maples and Sweet Smiles – {Betsy and Cameron’s Missoula Engagement Session}
As October is wont to do sometimes, the skies threatened rain on Betsy and Cameron's engagement session, but we decided to brave it anyway, and lucky us - the rain stayed away and treated us to some exceptionally beautiful light - only challenged, however, by the absolute happiness radiating from Betsy and Cameron as they looked at one another. Seriously - these two love each other. L. O. V. E. Love. We had so much fun as we trekked about in the woods, laughing our heads off the entire time, and exclaiming at how we are so lucky to live in such a naturally gorgeous place. And I feel pretty darn lucky I get to work with couples as ...
Brown-Eyed Girl – {Kally’s Missoula Senior Pictures}
Kally and I had such a nice time walking and talking and making photos for her Class of 2014 senior pictures for Loyola Sacred Heart High School. She's one busy lady, taking part in cheerleading, tennis and volleyball, just to name a few things. She also enjoys acrylic painting and spending time with friends when she's not busy with school-related things. Kally has even fit in time to volunteer at Watson Children's Shelter. Her time at the shelter has shown her how much she enjoys working with kids, and this is one of the things that has inspired her to pursue college at an east coast school, and focus her talents on pediatric ...
Sparkly Eyes and Brilliant Smiles – {Katie’s Missoula Senior Pictures}
Katie, a class of 2014 senior at Sentinel High School, couldn't have picked a more gorgeous day to have her senior pictures done. The sun was shining, it wasn't too hot, there was a teensy breeze, and her eyes were absolutely sparkling in each shot - everything was just perfect. And, if all that wasn't amazing enough on its own, she, her mom and I had a total blast during her session. Let's just say, there was a heckuva lot of laughter involved. :) We got to visit an old barn with lots of cool texture, we played in some fields and tall grasses, and we even raced the sun, chasing the light to catch the last rays as they peeked over the ...
Car Crazy – {Chase’s Missoula Senior Pictures}
Chase, a senior at Big Sky High School in Missoula, loves cars. Specifically, his Subaru that he's spent a lot of time and energy on to turn into a pretty sweet ride - bright yellow rims included. And he's pretty proud of what he's done with his car - and rightfully so. It looks great! When he's not busy working on his Subaru, Chase enjoys spending time with his friends and going skiing - and this semester, he's really liking his art and woods classes. To further his passion for cars, Chase plans on enrolling in automotive school in Washington state. Here's to a bright future for you, Chase! I truly believe that if you pursue what you ...
Toddler Giggles and Walks in the Woods – {Daisy, Erik and Woody’s Missoula Family Session}
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 ...
