Back at the Ranch

It was a glorious drive to Paradise Valley and a glorious ranch setting.  Animal-lover, Cindy, who lives on this slice of Paradise was the winning bidder of the Pet and Family Photo Session which I donated to the Stafford Animal Shelter‘s annual Fur Ball last May.  She gathered all her loved ones for the session…...

Joy and Love

I am going to take a detour from my usual posting of recent photo sessions and the like to share with you a cause very close to my heart. We are animal lovers and have several rescue animals of our own, including dogs, horses and goats and most recently a mallard duck…but our rescues, though...

2010 Senior Spokesmodel {Emily}

Sometimes life (and business) are better than you expect.  Such was the case when I had planned for no more than two Senior Spokesmodels per High School and quickly filled those slots.  Then, along came an application from the beautiful, talented and brilliant Miss Emily and well, to be perfectly honest,  it’s just not my...

High Country Paradise

It’s been a few years, but I quickly remembered the long and winding road to Kelly and Bill’s stunning high-country ranch near Yellowstone National Park.  The type of road where you think surely, you must’ve taken a wrong turn.  Surely, no one could possibly LIVE up here!  In fact, this beautiful Florida family does live...

Munchkins

These munchkins come all the way from, no…not Munchkinland, but from St. Louis, Missouri!  Emery and  Bennett are already used to the whole photo session at Sky Ranch, Montana idea, this being their third time here, but this was Keaton’s (18 mo) inaugural visit.   How is it that the munchkins with the shortest legs can...

Country Girl

Most of my sessions take place here at Sky Ranch, high on a mountain-top in the Bozeman Pass.  With 500 acres, plenty of varying terrain, outbuildings and vistas, the options truly are never-ending as a photographer.  Add to the mix that each and every one of you is unique and beautiful in your own special...

Wildflowers and Dandelions

One of the things I love most about photographing children and families outdoors here at the ranch is that there are built-in props everywhere you look.  Fallen trees, rocky outcroppings, dandelions and wildflowers.  This darling brother and sister duo, Ian and Elizabeth, (ages 4 and 17 months) were plenty happy spending a late afternoon picking...

2010 Senior Spokesmodel {Mandi}

I am truly amazed and honored by the caliber of student that has applied to be a Senior Spokemodel for Susann Saarel Seniors during my 2010 Senior Spokesmodel Program launch.  You are all active in school and within your community, you work or volunteer (or both!), you carry a high GPA, you love sports, your...

Urban Eyes

2010 Senior Spokesmodel, Samantha, loves to “cowgirl-up” and feels more at home on horseback in the country than posing in the big city of Livingston, Montana, but boy did she rise to the occasion!  It was a little unnerving for her when passing cars would slow down to watch, wondering who the “model” was and...
