I know I showed you the color version of this yesterday with his gorgeous eyes but something about this black and white is so striking!  The intensity of his eyes isn’t overshadowed by the vibrant color of his shirt in the black and white version.  He looks so classically handsome!

I have to apologize I am so far behind on blogging, so you haven’t seen many yet, but I have had the nicest senior guys this season! Max was one of them, so kind hearted, loves life, an all around good guy.  He is into soccer and long boarding just to name a couple of interests, and check out those eyes, they are the most gorgeous color ever!!!

I LOVED photographing these girls!  They showed up with the most fantastic clothing/accessory options, I would be thrilled to get dressed out of their closet every morning.  They were so kind to each other, it’s great to see siblings get along so well. Thanks for the fun, fun girl time!

I was so excited when she asked me to help them commemorate their first anniversary.  What a great idea, all of emotions from that lovey dovey day came flooding back as soon as she stepped into her gorgeous gown!  It was so fun to meet them and photograph a bride without the pressures of the big day swimming in her head.  They were totally relaxed and ready to have fun.  Thanks guys for a great morning!

I was thrilled to photograph Payton right before she left for the experience of a lifetime, she was headed to Santiago, Chile for an exchange program.  She is an amazing young lady!  She is also an accomplished pianist to top it off.  We had so much fun shooting at different locations to get the looks that she wanted.  Thanks Payton for a great afternoon, I have no doubt that you will have a blast in Chile!

I love photographing families with kids these ages, they are so willing and happy to show their love for everyone in their family, they haven’t hit the embarrassed stage and they give me so many expressions and a million different smiles.  This family recently moved back to Billings from the east coast so that they could raise their children in Montana, I agree it’s a pretty spectacular place to raise a family.

I love this couple, I posted a sneak peek last week (you can see it here) of the gorgeous bride. This couple of stunning, I knew I would love photographing their wedding after I did their engagement session last fall.  (here it is) They were so fun to work with and so photogenic, I mean really, does it get any better than this?  Their wedding party was a blast as well, over the top nice and willing to do whatever was asked, they were great! We drove around in the trolley and got some images before the big, “I do-s”, followed by a sweet ceremony and then a dance party reception.  I love watching guests live it up, so fun!   Congrats guys!  Thank you for letting me be a part of your amazing day!

One of the things I love about photographing seniors is that we get to have fun at a bunch of different locations, highlighting all of their interests.  When Haley told me about herself, I knew we would have a blast.  We were sure to capture her with the horse she has had since she was a little girl as well as her at the golf course, she is an accomplished athlete.   Thanks Haley, I know you have a bright future ahead!

I have been photographing this little “peanut” ever since she was a newborn, I can’t believe she is turning three!!!  I hadn’t seen her in a year and she was so big and grown up.  Her mom warned me multiple times before the shoot how active and sometimes stubborn she was, “put your running shoes on and get ready” is how we ended our pre consult chat before the session.  She was worried we wouldn’t get any shots, as you can see, we had a blast, we kept moving, laughing and playing the entire time.  She was great!  Mom was so happy and relieved at the end of the session at how cooperative this little miss was. It was a fantastic morning, her wonderful personality is contagious and makes me smile every time I see these images.  Happy third birthday Peanut!!!

I love photographing seniors, we run all over, dress up and capture different sides of their personality, all while making them feel like rockstars, even if we are being chased by stormy skies, and running with umbrellas for a bit.  Courtney was fabulous, thunder and lightening was crashing over head while she worked it on the hay bale.  She is passionate about basketball, so we were sure to spend time in the gym as well as show her girly side.  Thanks for a fun evening!
