Take a look at this gorgeous girl! I felt very lucky to take her senior pictures and just spend an afternoon hanging out with her. She’s so funny and sweet, even though her mom warned me to not be fooled 😉 I fell in love with her and so did my camera. She has amazing confidence that really came through. She plays volleyball and runs track at Senior High, and hopes to continue playing volleyball in college. Some other fun little things I learned about Jordan are that her favorite snack is french fries and her favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip. We’ve run into each other since the session and she is so bubbly and friendly, love this girl!

Take a look at this hottie! Rachel could not be more beautiful and I’m so lucky to have her on my Street Team this year. We fought rain and wind to get these pictures in the mountains of gorgeous Red Lodge, but she stayed so positive throughout the entire shoot and I’m thrilled with the results. Rachel is the Cheerleading and Dance Team captain at West High which keeps her very busy during the school year. When she has free time, she loves hiking, walking her dog, taking hot yoga classes, and hanging with friends. Some other fun facts about this cutie are that her favorite snack is almonds, her dream vacation is the Maldives (take me with you), and she is a LSU Geaux Tigers fan. Have a great senior year, Rachel! BE Driven.

This is one ambitious, driven girl who we may be calling Madame President one day if things go her way. I’d be fine with that 🙂 Reagan loves the outdoors, and to browse used book stores, she is on the Speech and Debate team, and is always open to trying new things. Her dream vacation is backpacking through Europe. She plans on majoring in Political Science and International Relations and is doing an amazing internship in Washington DC this summer. I can’t wait to hear all about it when she gets back. She is an fabulous asset to our JGP Street Team this year! I loved getting to know her during her shoot. This is one fabulous girlie!!!

I really love this cutie. Devon is a cheerleader, Student Council member, and all around amazing person. She has an adorable, girly style and incredible confidence to go with it. She was fabulous during her shoot and I enjoyed getting to know her more. She loves mac n cheese, the Denver Broncos, and spending time in the sun doing just about anything. I really admire the sweet relationship she has with her mom and we talked about how hard the transition is going to be next year leaving her mom as she hopes to attend college out of state. She is such an awesome girl, I’m so lucky to have her as part of our JGP Streetteam! BE Strong!

I love Kennedy, she brightens your day. She has this carefree nature paired with a genuine heart that makes her such a joy to be around. She always puts a smile on your face and had me cracking up the entire shoot, with stories like giving her mom a black eye while tubing, and I didn’t want our time together to end. Kennedy enjoys listening to all types of music, hanging with her Golden Retriever, Lola, and doing any and all activities that involve water. I’m thrilled Kennedy is on my Street Team! xoxo

Amy is the kind of girl who is instantly friends with everyone she meets. Her smile and positive attitude are contagious making her an amazing Street Team member. Amy was a ray of sunshine on our stormy shoot day; she was too busy working it in her tutu to pay any attention to the weather. Amy told us about her love of boating and hiking in the summer, and she is looking into attending Cosmotology school after graduation, no doubt she will be fabulous! I loved getting to know this gorgeous sweet girlie!! xoxo

Dad was so thoughtful to come in and get a gift certificate for family pics for Mom for Mother’s Day. She had been wanting to do family pics forever. The boys were so cute, I love capturing these ages. They love to explore, the little guy was obsessed with picking flowers for Mom, it was the sweetest! Watching families interact is one of my favorite things, its so fun to see them play and laugh together. Then capture it as a memory to have on their wall as art for years to come makes my heart happy. Showing the connection and the little loves looks that are exchanged without even realizing it – it’s the best. xoxo

This family – I can’t even…..I haven’t shot at their home since Lauren was a newborn, we have done different locations since then. But when Mom told me they had baby lambs, goats and a calf this summer and they just started bee keeping. I mean really does it get any better? A gorgeous summer, golden evening with baby animals running around and a family laughing and cuddling, kids excited to show me all around. It was pure magic. I love this family anyway, but shooting at someones home, in their personal space is really where you can get the true gist of them and it gives me warm fuzzies. Climbing trees, trying out the very first strawberry of the summer in their amazing garden it was fabulous. The garden is Mom’s favorite place, its where she goes in the morning to have her coffee relax and drink in the fresh air, I have major garden envy, it is beautiful! My favorite images of all though are the ones showing the family connection. Dad wrestling and laughing with the boys, Mom’s face when Lauren is in her arms, and then Mom and Dad together, that is what this is all about. It’s why I love doing what I do. xoxo

The mosquitos chased us away from our first location – they were swarming like a million little vampires, we tried to go for a little walk but it was such a constant cloud with zero relief we had to head somewhere else safe from those yucky bugs. We were lucky enough to have a gorgeous option close by. We could relax and enjoy the most adorable 4 month old ever. She was so sweet and easy going. She was interested in everything we walked by, just taking it all in, I’m sureshe was inspecting every blade of grass. But then turn her toward Mom and it was all she could do to eat her face and cover her in slobbery baby kisses. I couldn’t help myself at the end, I had to grab her for snuggles all the way back to the car, she was the best!!! xoxo

This was the sweetest baby! She is being welcomed by the nicest parents and two older furry siblings. Her Mom is a vet, obviously caring and nurturing – Dad is a policeman, so quite the protector. She hit the parent jackpot! I loved this cradle! Her grandfather made it and her mom and siblings had all slept in it which makes it super special. My kiddos slept in a cradle that my sister and I did as well, there is something about handing down and using things from generation to generation that is so heart warming, comforting and peaceful. xoxo
