Nothing is more exciting than having a baby. For those that had to try to have a baby (like we did), this is a session that they have longed for, sometimes for months or even years. While they wait for the sweet little peanut to grow, the months are filled with dreaming, deciding names, and […]
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 […]
I met Lexi nearly a year ago at our local Starbucks. I always admire brides who contact me without meeting me and actually feel comfortable sitting down to have coffee together. I knew almost immediately that I was going to like her! I admire Lexi for so many reasons. She is such a genuinely graceful […]

I had never met Kevin until the day of their engagement shoot. Abby was all smiles as she described him during her wedding consultation, and I was anxious to meet him for the first time. Everything she was telling me about him made me smile and my heart was full listening to her admiration of […]
