We met Jon + Brittany earlier this summer, and have been planning and waiting for this session for months! It’s so much fun for Denton and I to get to meet our couples.

I have recently fallen in love with hats! Some of my ladies in the last few sessions have been wearing hats, and I love it! This hat was beaded by Gracelyn’s mom, Jen. When she pulled it out, I already knew I wanted to shoot a lot of images with it. When Gracelyn put it […]

After doing Hayden’s senior pictures, this was a little mini family session that we squeezed in afterward. We had the people. We had the place. We had a PLAN. Billings, however, had a different plan than me, and it didn’t mind springing it on me last minute. HA! Anyone who has had family photos taken […]

I love urban shoots! Don’t get me wrong, I love living in prairie and all of the beautiful settings that we have here, but I just don’t get to shoot urban session that much! So, when Hayden’s mom sent me her vision board with locations and ideas for a downtown session in Billings, I was […]
