This poor mama. She had envisioned a snowy lake maternity session. Yeah, that didn’t happen. Her February day hit 60 degrees in Montana!! We were both shocked, but we couldn’t complain! I loved her reading her questionnaire that I sent before the shoot. She shared that they don’t know the gender of the baby, and […]

“Are you a hiking kind of girl?” I asked. “I’ll have my boots ready!” she replied. I knew it would be a great fit right then and there. Winter shoots are tricky. From the weather to the outfits, it’s just ot as easy as it is any other time of year. Knowing this, a lot […]

I love Thanksgiving and everything that surrounds this time of year. Gratitude. Thankfulness. Blessings. This time of year is good for the soul. I love that the weather turns cold and makes our hearts warm up. I always slow down this time of year and I am thankful for that in itself. I need it. […]

I shifted my 4-Runner into 4-wheel drive as I turned onto Ali and Brent’s road. The snow was softly falling as my windshield wipers tried to keep up. Snow-covered pine trees and quiet homes with porch lights on lined the country road as I made my way to meet 4-day-old Sawyer. As I drove up […]

That top picture is one of my allllll time favorites I’ve ever taken…and you betcha it was on film! All of the sunset photos in her white dress were shot on film. And when I say film, I mean like medium format (645mm) old-school-ten-pound-film camera kind of film. I am in LOVE with my new […]

You read that right: The girl next door. I’m lucky enough to have this beautiful girl and her sweet sister as my next-door-neighbors. Yes, we won the lottery. From Ryann and Mariah buying them a bucketful of gifts at Halloween to their dad and mom lending us a hand with building tricycles and giving us […]

I like this tribe. Pretty fun group. Have you ever met someone that you’re immediately like, “Yep. You’re my people…”? That’s this family. Andrea is actually a good friend of my sister-in-law, but if we lived closer, I honestly think I would jump into that friend circle and love every minute of it. And their […]

One of the most rewarding things for me taking pictures is when I share the back of the camera with each senior. It’s amazing to see each of their faces light up when they glance at my screen. Some even say, “No way! That’s not me!!” This reaction is my favorite–Yes, it is you!! You […]

Kyli knows how to bust a move…she’s been dancing since she was three. Let’s just say that I was born with no rhythm…so there’s that. I have always envied girls who can dance with their whole heart and bust moves that I would never dream of attempting…Yup. That’s this definitely Kyli and her friend Jamie. […]

Lifestyle family sessions are not your typical family session. They are a much more laid back, go-with-the-flow type of shoot. I LOVE these because the amount of pressure exponentially decreases for both mom and dad–and if I’m being honest–with me too! And the photos reflect that relaxed vibe. This mama and daddy knew that they […]
