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)...
Have you been to Kid Stuff in Bozeman? Gently used fine clothing and gear for kids? Not only does Kirsten own and operate Kid Stuff, she is also the fabulous interior designer behind Habitat Interiors serving clients from Bozeman & Big Sky to the New York metropolitan area as well as being mom to these...
One thing I really wish we did we we built our home was create a playroom for our twins…a designated area where they could play, do art, make a mess and at the end of the day, all I would have to do is shut the door! I still find myself tiptoe-ing through their rooms,...
Every child is a flower. Blooming in their own special way. Mason (14), Maryn (2) and McCall (4 months) were the flowers blooming in the field and on the mountain-top during this recent family session at Sky Ranch taking center stage among fields of grass and sagebrush. The kindness and sweet love between them all,...
The wildflowers disappeared and the fields dried out in August as they always do here at Sky Ranch. So, I’ve been waiting. Waiting for the spectacular show of color in the aspen trees and spirea bushes along the road that leads us home. The last time I photographed this beautiful family, there were just 2...
Does your home have a staircase? If so, what is decorating the walls? If you answered “nothing”, then you are missing a fabulous opportunity! I can’t even begin to tell you how many homes I have entered where there is nothing decorating the staircase walls! I am pleased to say that I have had clients...
A few days ago, a pair of Bozeman twin girls, Emily and Olivia, celebrated their 14th birthday. A pair of girls I photographed YEARS ago along with their big brother here at Sky Ranch. As a surprise, I posted one of my fave photos of the then 4 yo twins on facebook wishing both a...
I love family reunions! I love big families! These two gorgeous sisters, Linda and Judy and their children and their respective families came together recently from as far as Atlanta, Baltimore and Jacksonville, Florida for Linda’s birthday and a summertime reunion at a fabulous rental home in Bridger Canyon. The group of 22 including eight...
I don’t normally do commercial photography shoots, but when Sadie Mae called me in a relative panic in need of an image for her upcoming ad in Cowboys & Indians magazine with a submission deadline looming, I couldn’t resist saying yes simply because I just love her and her family (gutsy enough to smile through...
Nothing like a few setbacks to make a Grand Opening celebration all the sweeter! I had originally intended on a Spring opening…you know…just before the busy season. Yes, that would have been perfect. But God had other plans. As if 400% snowfall at 6,100 ft. weren’t enough…I dropped everything for months (namely my business), when...
