Katie and Colin not only love each other devotedly and wholeheartedly - they love the Griz, too. From the maroon bridesmaids' dresses to a surprise entrance by Monte himself, their wedding spoke to their shared loves, in person and in football. Katie and Colin allowed each other a "first look" prior to their beautiful autumn ceremony, and gazed deeply into one another's eyes, hands trembling from emotion, as they pledged their love during their wedding vows. Soon the party got started and, to everyone's surprise, Monte joined in for a bit and got both the bride and groom and guests to get their groove on. What a great night, you two! Thank ...
Happy Halloween! – {Missoula Trick-or-Treater Portraits}
Halloween is one of my absolute favorite, FAVORITE holidays. As a kid, my brother, friends and I would always get all decked out in crazy costumes (Pippi Longstocking, penguins, Cheshire cats, you name it), ready to brave the chilly autumn weather for that forbidden pleasure: CANDY. I thought it would be fun to set up a photo booth of sorts for the trick-or-treaters stopping by my place last night. And we had a blast! Thanks to all the kiddos, teens and parents for having some photo fun! And now...drum roll please...the photos! P.S. I found a pair of nice gloves in my lawn last evening. If you're missing a pair, please call or e-mail ...
Mother and Daughter Beneath the Big Sky – {Close Family Portraits}
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 ...
“The Autumn Leaves, Drift By My Window, The Autumn Leaves, of Red and Gold”
The title of the post is a lyric from Diana Krall's song, Autumn Leaves. I think it's fitting. Isn't is just absolutely gorgeous this autumn? I'm so glad we're having a real one as opposed to last year's cold shock for the poor trees. Anyway, it's been a busy past few weeks - lots of design work (albums, cards, ads, etc.) and event photography, which has been fun. I love design, so it's kind of a treat to get to spend time working on this aspect of my business. By the way, if you're interested in cards and/or albums in time for Christmas, please let me know as soon as you can since printing deadlines are just around the corner. (Early ...
Stone-Skipping, Field-Running and Tree-Climbing – {Jones Family Portrait Session}
I met up with the Jones family on a beautiful autumn day in Missoula for their family portrait session. The kids were pretty excited for their photos and we had a great time making some great family images, as well as capturing candid moments. We found some fantastic skipping stones and the kids showed off their skills to me, in addition to a broken stick. (Oh, boys will definitely be boys! So hilarious!) Thanks again, all of you! I had such a great time photographing with you - I hope we get to do this again next year, too! On the docket: Events and exciting product announcements! Cheers! -Kristine ...
Senior Stylin’ – {Sarah’s Darby High School Senior Photos}
Sarah, a senior at Darby High School in Darby, Montana, met up with me in Stevensville for her lovely senior photo session. The day couldn't have been more perfect - golden evening light, leaves lazily twirling down from the trees, and warm temps. We strolled through the woods and had a great time making some truly beautiful images of Sarah, who is an absolute natural in front of the camera. Sarah, it was so great to meet you and your mom, and I hope you have a wonderful senior year! On the docket: a cute family session! Cheers! -Kristine ...
I Scream, You Scream, We all Scream for Ice Cream! – {Big Dipper Video and Photo Shoot}
So, I love dairy products. There. I said it. It's out. I love them unabashedly, wholeheartedly, forever. Especially ice cream. And especially when it's ice cream made by Big Dipper in Missoula, Montana. Their rich, creamy, unique flavors are just several of many reasons to love their ice cream. Throw in great community involvement and business-to-business collaboration and you've got a perfect recipe for a wonderful, local ice cream shop. There's a reason people love this place. There have been some great changes and additions to the shop in Missoula (new neon signage as well as the Coneboy ice cream truck) and I was asked to make some ...
Freewheelin’ and Carefree – {Bernadette and Jeremy’s Bob Dylan-Inspired Missoula Engagement Session}
free·wheel·ing adj. 1. a. Free of restraints or rules in organization, methods, or procedure. b. Carefree. Bernadette and Jeremy are the epitome of fun and carefree - laughing, sweet, and such a delight to work with! What's better than a couple who reenacts Bob Dylan's Freewheelin' album cover during their engagement session? I mean...that's just so...GROOVY. Needless to say, we had an absolute blast during our session. Their reenactment of the album cover was just perfect! (and thank you to the generous donation of the VW bus to complete the look), they worked that camera and I don't think any of us could stop smiling during the ...
Striding into her Senior Year – {Sara’s Senior Photo Session}
Sara, a senior at Sentinel High School in Missoula, has big dreams and hopes to venture abroad to either Italy or South America. So we decided an urban feel would fit well with her desire to travel. Sara was so great to work with and was accompanied by her little sister, Madi, who was a most excellent personal assistant, fielding text messages for her older sister. Thanks Sara for being such a good sport! I had a wonderful time during our session and really enjoyed meeting you and Madi. I wish you all the best in your senior year, and hope you get to travel the globe a bit! On the docket: engagement sessions, just ...
Oh the places they’ll go! – {Shannon and Adam’s Tarkio River Lodge Wedding}
"Congratulations! Today is your day. You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and away!" Guests read excerpts from this poem by Dr. Seuss to Shannon and Adam towards the end of their ceremony - this gesture was one of the many personal touches added to Shannon and Adam's beautiful riverside wedding at the Tarkio River Lodge in Tarkio, MT. Water is very important to both Shannon and Adam, and from Shannon's arrival-by-boat and the gorgeous location of their vow exchange, to the stone-skipping portion of their ceremony (and you could say, even the rain) - they incorporated these personal and beautiful elements into their day. Thank you ...
