Butler Family| Family Photographer Helena, Montana

The past month has been a crazy one full of sessions and traveling around the state. The end of September I had the joy of traveling up to Havre to photograph the Butler Family. Stephanie was nominated back in May for my Mommy & Me Contest and won the grand prize, which was a FREE family session. I told her I would come up to Havre, just because I love to get out of town once in a while, and because her Sister-in-Law is one of my best friends. It was great to finally meet them all and we had a great time during our session just south of town in the Bear Paw Mountains. It was a perfect evening out and we beet the rain that came just a few hours later.

Fall is always a crazy time of year for photographers and this one is no exception. I have been super busy with family sessions, but I love it because it is my favorite time of year, and al the colors outside are absolutley gorgeous! I was excited to finally get to photograph my Aunt and Uncle and my cousin's family. We talked about it earlier this year and we finally got a good oppurtunity to do them. My Aunt and Uncle have a gorgeous setting right out their back door so I took full advantage of it. I think we got some great photographs of everyone!

We had a great time celebrating this little girls first birthday in the studio a couple of weeks ago. She was so cute and fun to watch. She is the first child I have had that wanted absolutely nothing to do with her cake. Mom and to pull out all the tricks to try to get her to try it. We managed to get her to eat part of the fondant cherry on top but that was about it. It was hilarious! What kid doesn't love cake?

Ava | Child Photographer Helena, Montana

She is such a doll! And she gets cuter everytime I photograph her, if that is possible. She has such a laid back personality and loves to smile. I always enjoy photographing her. She makes my job effortless! It is hard for me to bleieve that she will be one soon. This last year of capturing her has flown by! I am exctied for her 1 year old session. Mom and I have some great ideas in store!

Calvin | Child Photographer Helena, Montana

My cousin's little guy is so cute and has big blue eyes and eyelashes any girl would envy. I was excited to finally photograph this little guy after talking about it with my cousin for some time. We had a great time in the studio an made quite the mess with his cake smash! And I have learned a good lesson, I will never have black frosting on a cake again!

Williams Family | Family Photographer Helena, Montana

Another family session from my Fall Specials! This is another one of my best friends and her family. I get the joy of photographing them a lot! They make it pretty easy though, they are all so photogenic. We got some great portraits of her and her kids and a couple with her man friend. They make a pretty cute family if I do say so myself!!

McGree Family| Family Photographer Helena, Montana

Fall is my favorite time of year! I love the crisp air and all the fall colors! This year I decided to offer Fall Family Specials due to my crazy schedule. I have had people asking left and right for family portraits but there was absolutely no way to fit all of them in in our short fall season. For the first set of Fall Family Sessions we went to a private ranch just east of East Helena. It is a gorgeous 1200 acre ranch that has been in the same family since the 1940s. It is absolutely gorgeous out there and has many different settings perfect for Family Sessions. The McGree Family is such a nice family and I had a great time getting to know them and all their children. They were full of love and you could just see it in their smiles.

Anglin Family| Family Photographer Helena, Montana

It was so great to meet this family. They purchased a gift card that I donated to Rossiter Elementary Schools Annual Tailgate Party back in January of this year. We had attempted previous sessions but something always came up. So it was great to finally photograph them. For our session we ventured out in the mountains outsided of Montana City. It is one of my favorite places and has a lot to offer in scenery. It is gorgeous out there! I just love how their photographs turned out!

Emily Class of 2015| High School Senior Photographer Helena, Montana

Emily has grown into such a beautiful young woman. I have known her Mom for several years now and it is hard to believe that she already has a Senior in High School. For her session we went to a private residence just outside of Helena. They have a beautiful piece of property with a creek running right through it. I just love this location and all it has to offer. I will be doing Fall Family Session up there in October. Emily, her Mom and I had a great time during our session and we got some great photographs of Emily.

Owens Family | Family Photographer Helena, Montana

I had the joy of photographing one of my best friends and her family earlier this month out in Toston. As usual, we had a great time out at their ranch and ventured into Toston to take pictures on the bridge that straddles the Missouri River. Their session turned out great and we captured some really great photographs of all of them. Their kids are growing so fast! It seems like yesterday that I was holding their daughter as a newborn. I can't believe that in just a few short years I will be taking her Senior portraits! Her parents better lock her up once she enters High School. She is a gorgeous girl just like her Mom!
