Ashley and Nick truly are two wonderful people — and I was so excited to be able to make Garden of One Thousand Buddhas engagement photos for them, which is one of their favorite places. Ashley shared with me that it’s particularly significant to them because it’s the spot they’d often visit together when they first started dating. (And if there’s one thing I love, it’s being able to make photos in meaningful places for folks!) Zipping up to Arlee from Missoula, we somehow managed to be treated to one of Montana’s balmier days this winter, complete with a little sun and blue sky, which I think must’ve been timed just perfectly for Ashley ...
Keriann :: Missoula Montana In-Home Maternity Photos
When Keriann got in touch with me about making Missoula Montana in-home maternity photos to celebrate this time in her and Alex’s life before their twins’ arrival, I was absolutely thrilled! Though I don’t have any children of my own, I can imagine how exciting it must be to have two little ones joining the family. It was a snowy, sunny day for our session (we’d experienced a bit of a small blizzard the evening before), so we kept things close to their home, which was cozy, inviting, and full of beautiful light. It was so nice to laugh with each other as we talked about what it felt like to hear they were having twins (exciting and ...
Jordan :: University of Montana graduation photos
You know how you feel when you've just accomplished something simultaneously so difficult and so rewarding? Pure joy! And Jordan embodied that feeling perfectly during her University of Montana graduation photos the other day. (She literally kicked up her heels from happiness!) We had such a great time making these photos for her to celebrate her December graduation. Jordan's getting her degree in Math (something I greatly respect as someone who is forever challenged by numbers). In between making photos near the beloved Griz statue and Main Hall's clock tower, we popped into buildings around campus to warm up, one of which was the Math ...
On assignment for People magazine :: “Half Their Size” Shoot in Stevensville Montana
I'm so excited to start off the new year by revealing that I was recently on assignment for People magazine for their "Half their Size" shoot in Stevensville, Montana. The lovely Jeannette Asbury was featured in this article, and this week the story went live — both on the front page of People's website, and in print. You can read Jeannette's story in the new issue on newsstands as we speak! This shoot was such a blast! People magazine's photo editor, Sarah Fernando, contacted me in early December to ask if I'd like to do the shoot (but I didn't know what I'd be photographing), and it was a no-brainer to say yes. Fast forward a bit and it ...
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 ...
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 ...
Katie, Mike + Ruth :: Wintry Missoula Maternity Photos
It's a huge understatement to say how enjoyable it's been over the past nine years to get to work with Katie and Mike and capture their life events on film for them! So, during their family session this past spring I was especially excited to hear that they were expecting again in February, and even happier to get to photograph their wintry Missoula maternity photos to ring in 2020, this time with big sister, Ruth, as part of the images, too! We've had a pretty warm winter thus far, but I think Mother Nature heard our pleas for snow and treated us to a fresh dusting that afternoon, as well as some perfectly-timed snowflakes a little later ...
Christine, Pete + Bradyn :: Snowy Family Photos in Missoula Montana
I was so tickled to get a call from Christine asking me if I'd make some snowy family photos in Missoula Montana as a surprise gift for her mother-in-law's birthday. It's always such a treat to get to work with Christine and Pete (we've done engagement photos, wedding photos and Christmas photos together), and, as I suspected, it was a delight to get to meet Bradyn, too. It turns out, she's just a natural in front of the camera! They were all such troopers and braved a bit of a slushy day to make these images, but we just had a blast, and were treated to a beautiful almost-spring day. I'm not sure any of us stopped laughing and smiling ...
Joanna + Taylor :: Winter Wedding at the Jack Saloon in Lolo Montana
I wasn't quite sure we were going to get much snow this winter since things felt a little dry at the end of January. But then February rolled around and we were finally treated to a downright winter wonderland. Even better was that just days before Joanna and Taylor's winter wedding at the Jack Saloon in Lolo Montana we had some storms pass through and leave us with even more snow and loads of natural, beautiful backdrops for Joanna and Taylor's special day. Energy and excitement permeated the air as Joanna and Taylor and their family and friends got ready at the Lolo Hot Springs Lodge. Right before seeing Taylor for the first time during ...
Anna + Jeff :: Missoula Florence Hotel Winter Wedding
Winter weddings definitely make my heart skip a beat. They're just filled with romance, beauty, the twinkling lights and glamor of the season, as well as its warmth, coziness and overall joy. And Anna and Jeff's Missoula Florence Hotel winter wedding certainly embodied all of these things and then some! Their day started out with Anna finalizing her finishing touches in the Wilma condo she had rented. Her mother helped lace her into her beautiful tea-length dress as her family watched with anticipation. Soon it was time to walk over to the Florence Hotel where their ceremony space awaited them, adorned with greenery, white roses, and ...
