Little Hana.

Last week I blogged this sweet little Hana’s parents’ wedding, and this week I’m sharing with you this intimate newborn session from a year later. I love watching all the changes in my clients’ lives and being there to document them. I say it all the time (because my I absolutely adore my clients) – Hana has no idea just how lucky she is to have Mama Megan and Papa Joel as her parents.

Megan + Joel. Bozeman Wedding.

We had to cancel Megan and Joel’s engagement session two different times because of bad weather. I can count on two hands the number of times I’ve ever canceled a session because of weather. Usually if you just wait it out, it will surprise you, but even on our third try the weather was in the low 50’s in the middle of July, so I was fully geared up for their August wedding at Springhill Pavilion to throw us a crazy storm. The morning rain clouds decided to give them a break, though, and they tied the knot on the sunniest and most beautiful day in Bozeman.

“Not only was Susan super accommodating and understanding in rescheduling our engagement photos when the weather didn’t cooperate, but she took the time to get to know Joel and I as people and as a couple and things that we really value.

“The whole process of working with Susan leading up to the wedding was awesome. She made suggestions about the layout of the venue, explained how photos would work and even helped provide timeline suggestions that would work with what we needed. Susan also went above and beyond working with our vendors the day of our wedding to make sure we stayed on a reasonable timeline and helped keep the event flowing properly.

” Susan is far and away the best possible photographer we could have found for our special day! She spent our entire wedding day with us, capturing the whole day, and made sure to incorporate things we said were special to us. The photos are real, beautiful and will be cherished longer than our lifetime.

“I was impressed with her photos, but knew I found our photographer when I met her in person at a Bridal Event. She was personable and approachable and genuinely interested in our story and us. After a short discussion, we had one of our most important vendor spots filled – an awesome photographer!

Alli + Dustin. Engagement Session.

These two showed up to their summer engagement session in the hills of Mount Helena so excited for their session, and it made the session that much more fun. They have been together for years (high school sweethearts!!) and their movements with each other were so fluid and familiar. And oh my goodness… the way they looked at each other was just so sweet. I loved every minute of this session and can’t wait to for their wedding this summer.

The Voytoskis. Maternity Lifestyle Session.

These two.

Life just feels good when I see people being filled by their partners. Samantha and Dustin’s friendship is what really stuck out to me during this shoot. They just get each other, and I felt it each time I pressed the shutter. I can’t imagine the amount of self doubt that sneaks in when you’re expecting, but the confidence, excitement, and connection these two have together was so inspiring.  Thank you so much for letting me feel your love, especially during this momentous time in your lives. Bozemanlifestyle__0052.jpg

“Susan made both my husband and I feel so comfortable! We loved working with her. She is also the queen of getting the “big cheesy” smile out of you, when the time is right.” – Samantha

Pam + Ryan (+ fur babies).

I didn’t realize how great it would be to celebrate 10 years of marriage until we did. Why was 10 so much better than 9? Or was it? There is something about sharing a decade together that made this anniversary so special. 10 years, just Curt and me, of travel, self-discovery, patience, and intimacy.

I think my own 10-years-married celebration helped me connect with Pam and Ryan so easily. They celebrated 10 years of marriage this year as well – adding a few dogs along the way. I love when married couples have their pictures taken, and I wish more couples would see the value in it. You make changes, and you grow, and you can choose to do this together and support each other, so why not capture your emotional growth along the way? There was such a peaceful presence with Pam and Ryan, even with the dogs around! They mean everything to each other, and you get a sense that each other is what they hold most precious in their lives. This reverence they have for each other is something any couple celebrating any anniversary aspires to have.

Thanks for sharing the love, Pam and Ryan.
