Rays of sun...

"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time."

Hello Sunshine

I’m sure just like me you are all excited to see the sun coming out to play the last couple days! Summer is here and I’m ready to enjoy it!

Are you someone who would like to get vintage inspired pictures done but just aren’t sure what you would do or don’t think you have what it takes? First of all YES YOU DO! I believe everyone should have a chance to show off their inner pinup and let their natural beauty shine. So stop making excuses and embrace who you are! Secondly, ideas are endless for indoor and outdoor shoots. Maybe you’re a sports fan, animal lover, mother, mother to be, girly girl, or tomboy!

Spread the Love

I recently was the photographer for the Spread the Love event held by the Do Crew Salon in Missoula. This event was supporting breast cancer survivors and all the money raised went to Chicks n Chaps. The Do Crew Salon selected several woman who are survivors and gave them beautiful makeovers. These ladies then had the chance to walk the runway in the summers hottest trends (clothes provided by Maurices, Nicole Katherine Designs, and Cenex) as their stories were played on big screen. It was wonderful evening of food, laughter, and tears. These woman are truely amazing and everyone involved in the event did an amazing job. It was an honor to work with them and I wish the ladies many blessings in their future.

What is Chicks n Chaps you ask?
"Chicks n Chaps Womens Rodeo Clinic is a fun way for women to learn about the sport of rodeo from PRCA Cowboys, have a lot of fun, and raise money for Tough Enough to Wear Pink, a breast cancer awareness program."
