Xenia

I have known this beauty since I was about 7, playing in the grass with all of the cousins. I was ecstatic to hear I was her choice for a senior portrait photographer. And when she walked in for her consultation, long legs and vibrant smile, I knew this was going to be something special. And I was right, after hours of beating the heat, running from the Medford SWAT team, and getting attacked by leaches, we finally called it a wrap, with a great experience and some beautiful images to show for it.

Brooke

Brooke was a wonderful senior to work with, and she could pose with the best. Her bubbly personality and her creative ideas made our shoot a blast, from trespassing anywhere to find graffiti to jumping in the creek, beautiful dress and all. And how could I forget the wildlife experience. Please pay extra attention to the attentive dear in the background of one of her beautiful photographs.

Grace and Mason

Talk about two kids with looks and personality. We had a great hour at the abandoned House that the cows did in fact live in when it stormed. The poop proved it.

Home on the Ranch

For one month, I put my high heels aside and went back to life in South Dakota. The photography opportunities were amazing. Not many know that South Dakota has the most beautiful skys that an eye could ever witness with sunglasses on. Its science you see, the sky and mountains fight for the attention in life, and years ago, there was a a huge fight and the sky won. South Dakota is where the clouds go to celebrate the victory. And then there was Kadin, this homeless little boy who ran around naked, and enjoyed long rides on the tractor, and bubble baths with diesel.

And then there was the trip to the Strugis motorcycle rally... High heels, a paper license, a broken shoulder and some hail damage. And, once again, great photo opportunities.

Westcott Family

Round two for the Westcott Family portraits. Like this beautiful family was a joy to shoot, even in the misrable heat.

Annie

Annie has been a family friend for years, and I jumped for joy when she announced I would be the lucky photographer to shoot her. I don't know if you have noticed, but Annie is kind-of pretty, a little bit. I will never forget racing to the dam in the rain to get the shots we wanted before the storm really hit. Then there was lightening.... "Wait, it's okay girls are less likely to get struck by lightning right, that is what the Mt. Dew commercial says anyway"..... And so we continued.
