I woke up early anticipating and preparing for my 3 hour drive to Plains, Montana to capture Marie and Cory’s wedding. I was anxious to get on the road, and I set my alarm for 5 so that I can have my coffee and mental checklist time all to myself. I set all of my […]
The Lifestyle family shoot to beat all family shoots…W.O.W. Z. A. From the colors, to the location, and most importantly, the people…this one will be one to beat–I dare someone to try ;).

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 […]
