The morning of my birthday I was out walking my sister's dog and noticed that a layer of ice crystals was covering everything...needless to say I grabbed my camera and popped off a few shots around Missoula. This is what I got...
Tis the season for family portraits here in Missoula Montana. Though the weather may feel like March and the snow is quickly fading we were able to get a very cute family portrait in. This was one of the more eventful days in Missoula since Reserve was closed due to an accident involving a semi carrying a propane tank right outside my studio...which meant all sorts of rescheduling and trying to navigate traffic all day long. Fortunately this family was a blast to work with and were great sports about everything I asked them to do...
Brides and Grooms...come see me at the Missoula wedding fair on January 8th, 2012 at the Holiday Inn Parkside. Doors open at 11AM. Better hurry I only have a few dates left for the 2012 wedding season! Below is a map I was sent a few months ago, all the open spots are now filled, but it should give you an idea of where most vendors will be located...

Shot a beautiful wedding a few weeks ago. They had a gorgeous winter theme that made for some beautiful photos! We were lucky it had rained all week but the day before the rain turned into snow...
Shot a a spectacular wedding in Bozeman. The couple was such a blast to work with and willing to experiment a little. The combination of great people, spectacular location and perfect weather made for one of the best weddings I've ever shot...
Did some commercial photography for Beach Transportation a while back. They needed photos for their new website. I recruited Tami and her amazing kids...they didn't disappoint...the pics turned out amazing!
I did a family portrait for an amazing family the other day. They were great to work with and the kids were a blast! This was the first family portrait they've done in years...I wanted to make sure they had fun and got some great pictures out of the shoot. We ended up going to downtown Missoula and shooting all around the parks there. These are some of my favorite shots from their family portrait session...
I was hired to do a photo shoot for Beach Transportation (the bus company). They were great to work with and we got some great shots. The only downside is there's nothing quite like working with a model that is 40ft long and weighs 10 tons...the bus! It definitely had its challenges but it all worked out and now all the shots are up on their new website. These are some of my favorite pics from their commercial photography shoot...
I photographed Heather and Will's wedding down the bitterroot. They are such a great couple and are madly in love. The wedding was a very small and intimate affair that they held at the family ranch. I was so honored to be a part of it. The entire day the weather was threatening to take a turn for the worse but all day long the sun stayed out which meant for some beautiful photos! The couple was more than willing to try anything I asked and everyone had a great time...congrats again guys! These are some of my favorite photos from their wedding.
Tami is one of my favorite people to have in front of my lens. At this point we've done a ton of shoots together but never did any with her kids...it was time! She has a beautiful family and her kids are soooo freaking cute and so well behaved....you can tell that not only is she beautiful and great in front of the lens, she's a great mom too! These are some of my favorites from their family portrait session...
Kelli asked me to come and photograph her college graduation...I was happy to help. End up shooting not only her but her friends and family as well...it was a blast all the way around! The pics turned out great and everyone had a great time. These are some of my favorite pics from her graduation portrait...
Lyneah and Mike are a great couple from Missoula...they are so much fun to be around and to work with...doesn't hurt that they're a gorgeous couple. I shot their engagement portrait down by the river and in downtown Missoula...the pics turned out amazing! These were some of my favorites from their engagement portrait session...
Shot an engagement portrait for Ryan and Stephanie...they were a blast to work with! It was a fantastic photo shoot, they just happened to have a private access to the river behind their house which we utilized to it's fullest. It was obvious they were madly in love and had a great sense of humor...the pics show that! These are some of my favorites from their engagement portrait.
