courtneycourtney | kalispell montana photographer

wow…it’s been such a long time since i photographed kiddos (other than my own:))
i may have been a bit rusty…but i was so so happy to do them!!

i have photographed for courtneycourtney many times before and i love her stuff
even more every time i do. she makes the most beautiful and quality made upcycled
dresses and skirts. she is simply brilliant at what she does.

courtneycourtney dresses aren’t easy to come by and if you are lucky to score one
it’s like winning the lottery:)BUT i can tell you the best way to purchase one!
head over and sign up for her email list. http://eepurl.com/cgS2P (click this link)
this is where she posts her newest latest and greatest
dresses and this is where you will be the first to hear about them. almost all of her dresses
are sold from the emails she sends out. of course, you are always welcome to check out her
online shop too! just click on the size you need and see what’s available.

the pinwheels are made by me:)i’m getting crafty in my old age. haha!!

this is a SUPER post because it’s 2 sessions put into one blog post….so be sure to make your way
through them all. there’s even bloopers:)

LOVE LOVE the pockets on this dress!

the dresses for these little ones are so darn cute!!

 

these bloopers cracked me up. i love that she licked her. haha!

and the baby attack made me laugh so hard. love it!

a HUGE thank you to my ADORABLE models!! i love these girls so much!!!
the older girls have been photographed by me many times and the two littles
i photographed at birth. they all hold a special place in my heart! xo

was born a couple years ago and i have to say….chris and mallory, you make gorgeous babies!!

woodland princess | kalispell montana photographer

ahhhh!!! oh how i love this session and the ladies involved.

a couple months ago my dear friend steph b. told me that she wanted to do a shoot with me.
she knew she wanted a dress, but other than that, she said run with the idea.
i immediately thought of my other dear friend steph e. (yep, 2 stephs:)). steph e. is incredible and she
has a creative mind that i love so much. she is the owner of luna love creations.

steph e. and i started brainstorming. we were kind of all over the place at the beginning and then somewhere
along the way we (okay! steph. ha!) had this amazing vision of a shredded skirt and a moss top. steph e. and i
went to work on gathering supplies and ideas and the end result is this AMAZING dress that steph e. made!
i mean, how incredible is she and this dress?!?!

i made the stick/moss crown and it topped off the dress perfectly.
steph b. rocked this dress like no one else good. she is simply stunning and it was exactly what our vision was.

thank you SO SO much to both of my stephs!! you are both gorgeous, talented and i love you both so much!! xoxo
and thank you to adrionah (steph e.’s daughter) for doing steph’s beautiful hair!

what ______ looks like (month three) | kalispell montana photographers

i am loving this series! it’s so fun just to go out and shoot for no real reason other than to
capture the moment. my boys are loving it as well. they keep coming up with ideas and asking
if we can do soandso for our monthly photos.

this month it’s WHAT FEEDING THE DUCKS LOOKS LIKE. we live blocks away from this
great park that is full of ducks and feeding them has always been a favorite thing of ours to do.
it eventually turned into feeding the seagulls…they are greedy little things!! all i could think of
was finding nemo and the seagulls saying “mine, mine!”:)

as always, follow the link at the bottom of this post. it will take you through all the montana
photographers that are doing this series with me. click on them all and you will end up back
here when you are finished:)happy monday!!!

and here come the seagulls:)

the end:)

head on over to kelly kuntz photography at see what she was up to this month!!
