I was so excited to meet up with Erin and Chris for their Missoula summer maternity photos. I hadn't yet connected with them because their maternity session (and upcoming newborn portraits) were a gift from Erin's sisters. (Side note: what an amazingly thoughtful gift to give!) When I met them for their maternity session, it turns out that Erin and I had met a few years back during the "For Women's Only" ski program at Snowbowl. (Funny how small towns work like that!) It was so nice to see her again in this new stage of her life, and we had such a fantastic time making images to celebrate her mama-ness. Their 10-year-old border collie ...
Janelle :: Missoula Senior Photos in the Spring
Senior photos are some of my favorite images to make. And Janelle's Missoula senior photos in the spring were no exception. I was so excited to meet her and her mom and accompany them to one Janelle's most favorite places up Deep Creek. (Janelle's mom hadn't even been there before, and neither had I!) It's a rocky beach area right along the river, with beautiful view of the mountains. Janelle told me that she loves to go there to hang out with her friends as they run their dogs. And she especially loves it because it's got amazing sunsets. Driving to this location was a long, bumpy journey, and I've got to admit, I was a little worried ...
Rachael + Joe :: Missoula Springtime Maternity Photos
I always love documenting people during new stages of their lives, and I was so excited when Rachael reached out to me about making Missoula springtime maternity photos to celebrate such a special time as she and her partner, Joe, await the arrival of their first child. As we walked and talked during their shoot, they told me that their little boy is due at the end of May. He'll be joining two older fur siblings, one of whom made a cameo in this session as well. Rookie, their mini doodle, was beyond excited for his moment in front of the lens and could barely contain himself. But he absolutely knew how to work it for the camera and flashed ...
Nelson Family :: Missoula Family and Graduation Images
Making Missoula family and graduation images for the Nelson family was such a pleasure! And somehow we managed to avoid the wet, strange winter rain we've run into this season. Much to our delight, we even had a dusting of snow to work with! But, more importantly, I was super excited to see Carrie, Zoe and Zach again. I originally got to photograph them a little over 3 years ago for Zoe's high school graduation. Fast forward a few years, and it was time to make some family photos again, and more graduation images — this time celebrating Zoe's college graduation! We all had a good time meandering around the University of Montana, from ...
Simons Family :: Missoula Fall Family Pictures
It was another great session with the Simons family for their Missoula fall family pictures — the only season we hadn't hit yet in all our photo sessions together! And we totally lucked out with quintessential Montana fall colors during our shoot. Which, thankfully, took place after Missoula's mosquito population had diminished, and before Missoula's early October snowstorm and negative temperatures surprised us all. I think we may have threaded the needle there, haha! Our session was filled with pinecone hunting, skipping in the sun, climbing logs, tossing rocks, investigating colorful trees and their bright leaves, walks along the river, ...
Collin :: Missoula Montana Fall Senior Pictures
One of the things I love most about senior sessions is getting to hear about goals and plans and all the interests unique to that senior. Collin's Missoula Montana fall senior pictures were no exception! As it turns out, Collin, who's a senior at Hellgate High School, has myriad interests. One of which is the guitar — and from the bits and pieces I heard as Collin played while I snapped images, he's one incredibly talented musician. And he wowed me even with fingers that were on the numb side! (It was a little breezy during our shoot.) In fact, Collin has played guitar since he was five years old. Not only that, he has an interest in all ...
Elijah :: Downtown Missoula Senior Photos
Oh my goodness — did I ever have an absolutely delightful time making Elijah's downtown Missoula senior photos! Elijah is a senior at Big Sky High School and definitely connected with the camera. But that's not surprising at all since one of his goals after high school is to become a fashion model! And boy did he ever strike a pose — at every click of the camera he changed his angle, and was so excited to make images on benches, signs, stairs, graffiti, you name it, he was game! He especially rocked the smoldering gaze, looking straight into the depths of my lens. Elijah particularly loves to wear suits and ties, and we had a great time ...
Logan :: Autumn Senior Pictures in Missoula
Years ago, I had the pleasure of making family photos for Logan and her family. Fast forward seven years and now I'm making Logan's autumn senior pictures in Missoula. How time flies! It was such a treat to get to make these images for Logan, who's a senior at Big Sky High School. She loves tennis, adores birds (I helped her mom pick out a baby cockatiel for Logan a couple years ago as a surprise!), and has an interest in neuroscience and German, which she's thinking about studying in college. When she's not busy playing tennis or hanging out with her friends, Logan also enjoys drawing, hiking, biking, and writing. As we chatted while ...
Simons Family :: Summer Family Photos
Originally I was set to document Brayden's first birthday - but then, you know - pandemic times. So our session got pushed back some until we could safely be outdoors with one another. And even though these images weren't made exactly at Brayden's one-year milestone, I'd still say that the Simons' family's summer family photos are still a pretty great milestone for everyone involved! Not surprisingly, Brayden has changed so much since I made his newborn photos! (A lot happens in one year!) He's got such a stellar little personality - he's all smiles and waves and giggles, and boy does he love his entire fam - especially his big ...
Alena + Dan :: Springtime Missoula Mountainside Wedding
Though Alena and Dan's springtime Missoula mountainside wedding was smaller than planned due to Covid-19-related restrictions, it was still such a beautiful day for these two! The mountains and valley provided the perfect backdrop, wildflowers swayed in the breeze, and the clouds upped their drama factor for the day. They married at Alena's parents' home, and started the day off helping each other get ready, with lots of laughs and smiles as they navigated their way through tying Dan's bowtie. Before long, it was time to officially say their "I Do's" (which were being live-streamed for friends and family who couldn't make it to Montana ...
