2011 REMEMBERED

This is a big one. Going back through the tens of thousands of photos from this year, I pulled out 100+ that caught my eye. Actually it was way more than that, but after a few days of editing down, it’s a bit more manageable. Call it the ‘best of’, or the highlight reel… it’s hard to pick favorites … all my work is important to me. I get attached and sentimental about the photos I make, because of what, and who, they represent.

 

So, with no particular theme or order, I hope you enjoy this: a collection of just some of the moments I was blessed to be a part of this year.

 

2011 was fantastic. I don’t think I’ve ever worked this much, learned this much, or had this much fun before. To my clients, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for trusting me. To my friends, to say your encouragement and (more importantly?) entertainment meant a lot to me would be a huge understatement. Thank you.

 

Can’t wait to go to work on 2012.

Joey and Kara started their marriage in Glacier National Park, Montana, at the Great Northern Resort. Montana was such a dream. I could’ve shot there for weeks. Especially with these two. If you met them, it would seem like the most natural thing in the world when you learned that they take care of people for a living. They’re every bit as sweet and heartfelt as they look.

ARIANNE & SPENCER

Shooting this wedding was such a joy. It was one of those days that reminds you that weddings are about marriage, about lives being joined. AriAnne and Spencer’s wedding was about the things that they held dearest: family, friends, and faith.  They had by far the biggest bridal party I’ve shot, and managed to also be one of the easiest and most fun, which says a lot about the company they keep. I’m thankful I got to witness their marriage begin.

 

Also, shout out to Tonhya for shooting with me, there’s a few of her shots in there as well. And, if you look close, you can probably see Meg in the bridal party.
