The river rushed by. Dogs and their people meandered along the path in the fleeting evening light. Arrow sat on the sandstone rocks looking out across the river. As he told me about his summer, I couldn’t help but ask more and more questions. Who wouldn’t want to know more about petting alligators!? We talked […]

The smells of coffee, flowers, and morning rain mixed in the air. The music played softly in the background creating a movie-like feel. The tree in the garden caught my eye. We repositioned near the tree as Natalie posed with her floral bouquet. I took a few quick pictures. As I checked the back of […]

The sun glowed in the setting light casting a dreamy look onto the surroundings. The chatter of friends and families enjoying Riverfront Park floated around. Everyone was trying to catch the last fleeting days of summer. Winston’s tail happily swished back and forth. It was clear he was walking with his best friend. As if […]

The early morning air was crisp. The clouds hung in the sky, but that didn’t intimidate us. Light rain started to fall. This was the location we were looking forward to most so we couldn’t stop now. As we circled the airplane taking pictures from all angles, Joseph reached up to his aviators. His hand […]

I can hear them down the hall in the nursery. They aren’t playing, just looking around. Then my heart melts. “When you were a baby, I helped with you. We are both going to be great helpers when the new baby comes.” I love overhearing the sweet moments between siblings! Yes, the rumors are true. […]

The early July sun beat down. The backyard aspen trees created a much needed cooling shade. The laughter and conversation filled my ears from the family behind me. No sooner did my camera click and I gave a “You look great!” did I hear my new friend bound over to me. “Can I see?” uttered […]

I was able to photography this Billings senior session of Sally who started her year off and running! Literally, she’s spending her fall running on the cross country team at Billings West High School. Between all the practices we were able to schedule her senior session right in her own backyard. I couldn’t have asked […]

The sound of quiet children coloring filled the pauses. The coral and sage floral baby shower decor gave life to the room. Kerry spoke of her love for her niece, Hannah, in all of her momentous life events. From Hannah’s first breath to now, as she expects her 3rd baby girl. The room was fixated […]

The forecast called for rain all day. The rain broke just in time for our Swords Park family session. It left everything feeling fresh and made the colors of the sandstone rock formations pop. Still cloudy when we started, but the smiles from this family lit up the photos anyway. Just when everyone was warming […]
