BEAUTIFUL Family Portraits in the Wildflowers

For all you of that have done wildflowers session with us--let me tell you, they are gorgeous!  I know I have a great job when I am able to work in such an incredible workplace like the mountains in full bloom!

This family was PERFECT!  Thanks to MP for the countless hours of organizing her family's attire.  You ought to have seen the "before pics" that they had of them standing in their front room with different clothing ideas for the pics--hilarous!  I think you nailed it girl~

If you are interested, we will be opening up a few slots for Saturday, August 8th!

it has been a very long day-tired--off to bed

luv luv

now BOOKING Autumn PORTRAITS

i know, i know--you are luvin' the summertime and don't want it to be done, but let me give you some helpful information...(fall portraits book up before the summer ends)

We all want fall portraits for our mantles for Thanksgiving and to put in our Christmas Cards. Often times we worry about what to wear. So, girls (and guys)--if you are school shopping right now, buy outfits that would coordinate with your fall portraits so that you don't have to buy one more outfit for the kids. The gorgeous layers and textures of clothing are really the latest style. If you buy the funky jacket for school and it coordinates with fall portraits, it really makes economical sense.

Also, people always ask me, "What do I wear?" My answer is, "Where are we going to be putting the portrait at?" If your home is chocolate browns with ivory, wear coordinating clothing to match the room.

The other day I saw pumpkin and blue combined together--such a gorgeous combination together with the orange fall leaves.

Call today--our first fall setting will take place on Friday & Saturday, September 25 & 26--this is stunning with the white bark of the quaking aspen trees and their golden leaves. I have eight slots left for this one!

I am also showing The Lake setting--this was our most POPULAR location last year.

luv you guys like rockstars!
