I love that Montana has 4 distinct seasons…well, some might say there are only 2…summer and winter, haha. And yes, that certainly was true last year when winter stretched a whole 6 months from November to May! So how do I do it? Survive 6 months of winter, I mean? In a cabin (ok…log home)...
I never thought I’d say this, but “oh winter!…wherefore art thou?” After all, what is winter in Montana without snowballs, sledding and snowmen? Instead we’ve got record highs in Bozeman! Yep, 58 degrees yesterday! OK, so truth be told it has been nice, almost a luxury in fact having a break from last winter’s snowmaggedon,...
Happy New Year!!! Wow! What an amazing hear I had! Oh sure, it started off with a doozy of a winter and an unplanned 2 month hiatus as I became a full-time nurse to Doug after his accident, but professionally, 2011 was my greatest year ever! So I never got around to building my mobile...
“Twas the eve before Tea, when all through the town, We two ladies went shopping for a new Christmas gown. She settled on pants and a black lacy top, Ballet flats with rhinestones to top it all off. I tucked her in bed and I kissed her goodnight. In the morning we primped, it was...
It was an unusually warm winter afternoon when Jennifer and her adorable 5 yo son, Alec arrived for their Holiday Mini Session at Sky Ranch. Jennifer and her son are so so sweet together. And the way little Alec snuggled with his rescue Boston Terrier, Max was equally as charming and sweet. But when Alec...

When your dog is bigger than you are…you give her as many treats as she wants! All joking aside, Mucinda is very sweet to her little master. Adorable 23 month old Wells has grown so much since last year’s Christmas portrait session seen here. I am already looking forward to next year’s session when his new...
“Snowflakes are kisses from heaven.”…I am going to try to remember this quote each time it snows this winter and revel in all the kisses! It didn’t snow the day I photographed this beautiful Bozeman family, but there was plenty of cold white stuff on the ground already and a blustery wind to boot! Mom...
I love this little pumpkin. I mean how can you NOT love him? But what I love most…how his parents love him, dote on him, lavish him with kisses and laughter. I’ve been documenting Luke’s first year, from his newborn session to Luke at 7 months. And finally his studio birthday session (photos coming soon)...
