While Taylor is off at school ( I had to get this bus picture in here somehow, she had to bring something that started with the same letter as her name for show and tell, hence the Teddy) and Hailey at Preschool for a couple of hours I get to enjoy one of my favorite times of the week with Ty. We have been enrolled in various classes of Musikgarten since we moved to billings 3 1/2 years ago. I LOVE this time with the kids, I am really enjoying it with Ty since I am finally not pregnant or having a tiny babe baby bjorned to me. It is just me and him, he gets my full undivided attention. I love to see him learn and grow under Miss. Autumn’s magic spell, she honestly is the pied piper of little ones. He is always thrilled when it is music day, he regularly bounds throughout the house singing the charming music and reciting his ba ba rhythms. This little guy has me wrapped around his finger, can you blame me? I know I am shocked that I’m in a picture, a friend at class offered to take our picture together, at first I declined but then thought hello I don’t think I have a single picture with Ty or any of the kiddos in the last 6 months. The hazards of always being the photographer, well this is proof that I really do exist.

It is always so fun to know someone with the same name, we would both giggle when we spoke on the phone to coordinate the photo shoot. Jana wanted some new business pics, I think she looks fabulous!

I was so delighted when Dana Sorensen called me to photograph her new niece visiting from New Jersey. Logan was the best three month old ever, she was even posing for me and so adorable. Of course we took some of my buddy Aiden as well.

It was fabulous to photograph Adam and Angie’s wedding at Chico Hot Springs. I did their engagement/family pics and really enjoyed working with them, they had such a great energy. It was a beautiful sunny day, but March in Montana is not known for being warm and wonderful, it was WINDY and FREEZING but Angie pulled it off even working the strapless dress. I’ve gotta give her props. Thanks guys for letting me be a part of your special day.

You may recognize a couple of my favorites from the wedding at the top of this website banner, I was tempted to put them in again but thought you may like to see some different ones. I love that weddings bring families together when there happens to be a professional photographer around, how neat to have a four generation pic.

i’m so excited to unveil the new look – with the revamp of a new logo/website, i thought why not go all out and update the office too? i wanted to have a place to have clients come and view their photoshoot and be able to see the different options of how to showcase their new art. canvas gallery wraps, standouts, prints and styrene mounts…..oh my.

TA DA what do you think? i can’t wait for everyone to come and visit. ok now for the special – i’ve never done a special before – with mother’s day approaching, what better time than the present. here you go – drumroll please….. 20% off of canvas gallery wraps, the most coveted art piece around. the deadline for the special offer is April 25th. this gives you two weeks to look at your photoshoots and go for it, do something incredible with those images you have sitting on a cd. i posted this and then had a quick e-mail question about what a canvas gallery wrap was so here are a couple of up close pics of the art options. the first pic includes the standouts and styrene mounted pics that are great for putting on shelves or hanging from ribbon.

the Renos were such a nice family, their children were in town with one about to move “across the pond” so they wanted to be sure and have a picture with everyone while they were together. it was so windy but we found a place in a gully that was wind free and gorgeous.

this little guy melts my heart, i photographed him when he was a newborn and he had the same exact huge smile that took over his whole adorable face. he is so fun and easy going. i look forward to photographing him as he grows up. thanks for making us smile Jack.

kinley was such a trooper on this freezing day, (i am so ready for spring). she is an adorable just turned two year old, most comfortable in mom’s arms and then confident with her bunny. look at her gorgeous sparkly eyes!

tis’ baby season, it is always a challenge to try and get siblings together when they are so close in age, but i love the interaction and how they look at each other. this family was great, the boys were so charming and the babe was perfectly sleepy for the majority of the shoot. after spending time with them it was obvious that these three boys will have a fantastic time growing up together. i couldn’t resist taking pictures of the rolls on such a new little guy. i love them…..

this little miss was so sweet and adorable, mom booked the shoot way in advance, always a good thing to do since you probably aren’t thinking about pics the first week home from the hospital, so i always have to applaud moms who think ahead. we were able to photograph her at the perfect time. she is beautiful!
