I knew I wanted to write a blog post about my mom for months, but I just couldn’t bring myself to sit down and drudge up all the emotions that I have so “successfully” suppressed over the past three years. So here we go. Here’s my story. It gets rough (it took me 8 tissues […]

I titled this blog “Montana Spring Engagement Session”. What I should have titled it was “Winter Spring Engagement Session”. It was FREEZING. Poor Bryce had just gotten home from Afghanistan and was being such a trooper in the almost eighty degree temperature difference. But did I hear one complaint out of him? Nope. He was […]

When you get a shoot like this, you wake up the next morning almost in awe that it even happened. It was a beautiful spring day when I drove up to the Graybill’s home. Although windy, the sun was pouring down its warmth as I walked up the steps of their turn of the century […]

Lifestyle newborn shoots are my new jam. I’m semi-addicted to them. To be honest, this shoot was no exception. I wanted to exchange phone numbers with Megan and Seth as I walked out the door. They are the kind of people that are so genuine and down-to-earth, you immediately want to be insta-friends (for those […]

From their engagement photos, to their wedding day, and now to the new life they created, I go way back with Katie and Rory. So far back in fact, that when I got to their house and realized that I forgot all of my SD cards on my kitchen counter (yes…ALL), I wasn’t too embarrassed […]

Montana weddings. Pretty tough not to love them. I have driven through Plains, Montana hundreds of times on my way to visit my parents in Sandpoint, Idaho. Never did I think I would ever have a wedding there. That was until I got a message from a dear college friend, Marie, who asked me if […]

The earthy tones in this lifestyle newborn session fit the subjects. The first time I met Shelby and Cody was in their beautiful Helena home on the morning of their newborn shoot. They were the most down-to-earth people who made me feel instantly comfortable with their kind and relaxed demeanor. I teased them that they […]

From their engagement shoot in the COLDEST temperatures I have EVER shot in, to their beautiful and romantic fall wedding ceremony, I felt like I had done it all with Courtney and Jeff. Until, I got the phone call that they were expecting a baby!! Like our previous past choices on shoots–I chose one of […]

Engagement sessions in winter can be interesting…and fairly painful… That’s why you have a car (running with the heater full-blast) about 10 feet away from you at all times. Then, winter engagement shoots are not only bearable, but OH so worth it! The light in winter is a soft even light due to the snow […]
