Alyssa | Class of 2013

Last fall, I was contacted by a good friend of mine that I used to work with in the NICU from Montana, she wanted to know if we were going to be planning a trip home anytime soon.  She was hoping that if we did I would do her daughter, Alyssa's senior pictures.  First off, I was shocked in my mind I still pictured her daughter as a girl of about 10, I have to admit until I saw her it was hard for me to wrap my mind over the fact that she is a Senior in High School.  Second, I felt so honored that she would ask me to do this for her. Back when we lived in Montana before I ever even thought of photography as a business she always encouraged me, and was having me do photos of her kids...I guess you could say she saw something in me that would take me another 6 years to discover, thanks Wendy!

Alyssa, I love the young woman you have become you are truly beautiful inside and out and you have one of the most amazing personalities ever.  It was so much fun to work with you to capture these beautiful images.  

So glad we were able to travel home this summer so I could do this for you.  

 All these photos were shot in Missoula, Montana!  Thanks Alyssa and Wendy for making the drive down!!!! XOXO

Josh & Audrey

I was so excited when my friend Jennifer asked me to take pictures of her adorable children.  We visited about different props we could use and decided on balloons for Audrey and a tricycle for Josh as well as a red wagon.  So with storm clouds looming overhead we headed off to a local park praying the  weather would hold off till we were done.  Just as we finished up the session the rain started coming.  Below are some of the images I was able to capture that day...

Jeremiah - Class of 2013

A little over a week ago I had my first senior from the class of 2013!  We had a great time going around to a couple different locations as we worked to achieve these shots.  Wishing you a great senior year Jeremiah! 

These shots were taken about a little over an hour before sundown. As you can see from the shots at the beach there was no shade but due to time of day it helped us avoid a lot of those harsh shadows :) Pin It Now!

A Father's Day Surprise...

You may have heard the phrase once or twice before..."location, location, location" and just as true to real estate a great location is essentially as important to a photographer.  When I take on a client, one of my first questions to them will be what kind of session are they looking for indoor, outdoor,etc.  So, when I asked my last client if there was a specific place they wanted to use for their outdoor location, they chose a spot I had never been to before...so it is fare to say I was walking in blind :) So, lets start out with a couple of beautiful shots of the location they chose.

Now they chose this beautiful location because it was the area where they grew up.  So, here is the thing though, their Father who these pictures are for lived just around the corner...so we had to do a little sneaking around.  Let me tell you trying to sneak around with 9 people plus myself and my fabulous assistant (my husband) is not an easy thing to do!  But I think we escaped unnoticed.  


I've been sitting on posting these photos now too so their would be no "leaks" to spoil their Dad's/Grandpa's Father's Day! Hope you all enjoy!
