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. […]
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 ;). Wet during golden hour, aka photographer talk for two hours before sunset and drove to a meadow in the south hills of […]
This wedding will be one for the memory books. One could FEEL the love at this wedding. They could also feel the anticipation–the excitement! You see, the bride and groom decided to wait to have their first kiss at the alter. Seriously! And to witness this as a photographer…it was amazing. All the feels! When […]
May weddings. Nothing is more gorgeous than the green grass and blossoming trees, but nothing is more stressful than rainy wedding days! It had been raining for days before this May wedding, and I was anxiously watching my weather app for days before Brittney and Zach’s wedding day. Rain in Helena, Montana is somewhat rare. […]

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 […]
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 […]
We may or may not have frozen our buns off for this January maternity shoot in the wee morning hours. Frost covered every blade of grass and blanketed the hillside below Mt. Helena to make for the most stunning backdrop anyone could ask for. I waited in my pick up, heat blasting as high as […]
I remember my first phone call with Crystal. She called me early this summer to schedule her fall maternity session. The longer we chatted on the phone, the more I felt like we were good friends that hadn’t spoken to each other for a few years and our conversation just picked up from where […]
