"Pet Faces" an IHeart Faces Photo Challenge (Nebraska Photographer)

Thank you to Mountain Expressions Photography for posting about this awesome photo challenge from IHeart Faces. When I saw that it had to do with pets, you KNOW what photo I thought of!

This is my absolute FAVORITE photo of my Son and his dog. Capturing a moment with both of them still is a challenge, let along getting one where it looks like they are both laughing, is priceless. I have this print as a magnet on my fridge and a huge wrap on my wall. Oh how I love these boys.

There is nothing like the bond of a boy and his dog.

A&T got in touch with me last November about shooting their Steamboat Springs wedding. They were so sweet and T knew exactly what she wanted for her wedding photos. Unfortunately they lived in Illinois, so we were unable to meet before hand. This never bothers me, because we had a very open communication via email and three way calls.

The day of the wedding was quite warm, but fortunately I was used to 106 degrees back home, 86 seemed like Spring! hehe. Everyone was in good spirits and we had a blast with photos. The venues were beautiful. Rolling Ranch Golf course for the ceremony and the Sheridan for the reception. I just love outdoor weddings. I do so much better with natural light!

Beware~ photo overload! I had so much fun with this family and was so pleased they chose me to capture their special day!

~F~ Family Third times the charm! {Nebraska traveling Family Photographer}

When I first met the F family it was the Fall of 2010. We had had a warm fall and A was hoping to get more of a Summer feel to their family photos, well, it cooled down that week. Last Fall we tried again...it snowed.

Ah ha! This year we MADE it happen! I was in town for a wedding and it worked out perfectly to meet up with this lovely family and get some beautiful Summer shots on the mountain.

I forget how BLUE the sky is on Colorado, and we had some dramatic clouds that afternoon!

Little ~E~ is growing so fast! She is such a doll!

See what I mean about the clouds???

The black dots in the background, buffalo!

How could we NOT get a shot with the outhouse?!

So sweet

Lovely family!

I hope to make a trip yearly to the area and be able to continue to be this family's photographer!
