This was a fun photo shoot. It has been a long time since I took pictures of a family with older kids, and these kids were great. Hopped right into every picture and smiled on que. I had a great time with this photo shoot trying to get some fun shots of the kids and family.
This family is another busy family with a 10, 9 and 8 year old running in every direction. They have wonderful personalities and kept me laughing during the whole photo shoot.
I love this picture of Taylor, Ryan, and Spencer.
Thanks for taking pictures right before CAT-GRIZ football game. Hopefully you made it to pregame. It was fun to catch up with everyone. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Dye Family
I met this family for the first time on Saturday. They were the sweetest family that is very busy; three children ages 3, 2 and infant. The 3 year old girl was my little poser, and the 2 year old boy was busy. I was surprised we got him to pose in a few pictures and he did really well. The baby was a sweetheart just checking things out and not fussing at all.
I love it when parents ask, Do you think we got any good pictures? I always know there are going to be a few in there, just never know how many. We got a lot of great pictures of this family, enjoy my favorites.
With boys you need to make sure you take their pictures first thing. This photo was within the first 10 minutes and it turned out cute.
I had a great morning with your family. Thanks for calling and Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
These pictures were taken inside the student union building at MSU-B. There are not tons of options inside, but it has some greenery and is warm. Just an option for winter weather.

Cousins
This picture is was taken at the end of the children's session on Saturday and the beginning of the Gertsch Family session. The families are related and I thought it would be fun to get a group picture of the cousin that were there. I think there are 15 cousins and 1 on the way? I don't know if that is the exact number, but we are missing a few - OK half.
Thanks for sticking around. This is a good looking group of kids!
Gertsch Family
What a wonderful family. I have been taking their family pictures for about two years, and always look forward to catching up with everyone during the photo session. These kids are so adorable and were very good during the photo shoot. This photo session was Saturday morning right when the wind started to pick up. I just knew we had to find cover or else the girls hair was going to be everywhere! I think with the windy conditions there are still too many to choose from. Here are some of my favorites.
The photo below is cute. Brigham crawling away while Griffin and Adria sit nicely for their picture. He is getting close to walking and then he'll be a kid on the move.
I had a great time on Saturday, thanks for calling. The kids are growing up way too fast.

Annie, Macee & Carter
What a fun morning! I photographed this family about 2 years ago and Carter has changed the most. He has gone from little baby to boy. He was so adorable wanting to do anything his sisters did, which made him a great poser.
This was just the children's session today. They are expecting a little brother soon so mom wanted to wait. Although for being 33 weeks along I think you look great! I have to say I love Macee's smile. We tried everything, but her toothless grin just lights me up.
Isn't this cute? It looks like he is getting ready to fish.
Thanks so much for calling. Can't wait to meet the little guy and see you for family photos in the spring.

Kylie
Two senior sessions in one day. Too much fun! This session was supposed to be last weekend when we got 22" of snow. So we waited until this weekend, and we got lucky. Kylie is a wonderful family friend who has a great personality. I was so excited when she asked if I would take her senior outdoor session during the fall with the wonderful Montana colors. Luckily the snow didn't knock off all the leaves.
I love this area of downtown.
She brought great outfits for us to try tons of ideas. This picture turned out so cute.
OK Kylie I don't know if you have been told this before, but the photo below on the right. . . you look so much like your mom and sister.
Thank you so much for calling. These are only a few, seriously I love every picture. I just can't post all of them. I had a great evening. Thanks for taking great pictures even though you were so cold.
Zach
Zach drove 3 hours for this senior photo session. I was a little nervous when it was raining all morning and we had to postpone it for 2 hours. The weather was still cool, but finally let up.
Now I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea. I love taking family photos and all the children's sessions, but it was so nice to take senior pictures. This was my first senior session all year, and it was great to be able to understand each other. I love the babies and kids, but I always feel like I'm running everywhere and never getting anywhere.
Zach is a pitcher for the Blue Devil's baseball team. It is fun to take senior pictures with props that show off their personality.
Stacy and Zach, thanks so much for driving to Billings for senior pictures. I had a great time. Zach thanks for putting up with all our crazy ideas.

Olivia
What a doll! I was excited to take Olivia's pictures, and happy to say that we are related. I don't know how far removed we are - she might be my 5th cousin? She is fun and busy, but she cooperated great to take some wonderful pictures.
The fall colors are out right now. It was a beautiful day (once again); the leaves are falling and the trees are turning colors. This usually only lasts for about 3 weeks. I love fall! Most of my favorite pictures from this photo shoot are in color.
These have got to be the cutest girls jeans on a baby. The sweater fits perfect also with her dad serving our country in the Air Force. Thanks for your hard work. Hopefully next time you are in town we can get family pictures.
There is something about the pictures below. I think Olivia could be a model in both of them. The one on the right is just precious.
Thank you so much for calling. I enjoyed the visit and taking Olivia's pictures. She is a sweetheart!

Fleury Family
What dear friends of ours. First I went to high school with Ryan; second he has an amazing wife who I love spending time with; and third their little boy is adorable and plays with Isaac all the time. We seem to get together quite often with men's softball, barbeque's, and the kids playdates. I had so much fun capturing these family photos. Below is my favorite family photo. Usually I fall in love with one of the first pictures we take; the kids are happier and every seems to be "ready" to take pictures. This photo was one of the last pictures taken.
Below are some of my favorite family candid moments. . .
They brought a water bottle to get Ashton's attention. He was so into squirting his parents. I love this picture of him getting them wet.
Ashton is a pretty quiet child. He is getting used to me since we see each other at least once a week for play group, and I even got a huge hug at the end of this photo shoot. I love this picture of him. He was having a blast on the slides in the playground.
Thank you so much for calling. I had a great evening, and I'm so glad I got some fun pictures of the whole family. Can't wait to show you the rest!
