White Sands National Monument

2011-08-24T19:24:00.008-06:00

While I was in Alamogordo, New Mexico I had a chance to visit White Sands National Monument. It was so amazing, all the white gypsum crystals where incredible! Although it was in the high 80's, the crystals were very cool, allowing us to walk barefoot. The image below was a fun shot Rob took of me, he did a great job!

Swords, Boots and Shadows

2011-05-15T15:42:00.006-06:00

I got another chance at a portrait shoot and I had the best time! Amanda Bonilla has a book coming out this winter and I was so thrilled she asked me to take her author photos for her. I scouted out the spot I wanted to take her photos a couple days before and the wind was horrible! Thankfully the day we did the shoot the weather was perfect. One can never tell what kind of Spring weather you will get in Idaho! Amanda writes paranormal and urban fantasy romance, her debut novel, SHAEDES OF GRAY will be on the shelves December 6, 2011, her blog is Swords, Boots and Shadows. Check her out, she's an awesome writer!!

Animals-Wild & Domestic

2011-04-23T12:09:00.005-06:00

Rock Creek Station and Stricker Homesite

Historic Rock Creek Station was built primarily to serve the stagecoach & Pony Express, but also it was a stop for trappers, fur traders & explorers. Emigrants traveled this part of the Oregon Trail from 1843 into the 1900's.

This was my first portrait shoot and I was so nervous to do this, but I had an absolute blast!! Really how could I go wrong with this beautiful family! My niece, Chloe, is so fun to photograph, she did a great job being my little model! My twin sister, Kellie, & her husband Jeff were amazing to shoot, they really let me do whatever I wanted and we got through a cold snowy day in record time! Pictures were taken at Ross Park and Old Town Pocatello, Idaho. Thanks Palon family for allowing me to practice with you, I love you all!

Hutton Farm~Kalispell, Montana

2010-11-18T16:36:00.007-07:00

These photographs are of my grandparent's farm in Kalispell, Montana. It's just down the road from Hutton Ranch Plaza, which was my great uncle's farm, Jack Hutton. The thistle picture is in memory of several thistle fights with my brothers and sister growing up. This is just a taste of my childhood memories that stem from my grandparent's farm.

Here are some pictures from my last adventure in Montana. Glacier National Park, Kalispell, Billings and Missoula were all beautiful. These places will always be a great photography opportunity for me. The Courthouse below is where my Mom worked in the 60's. My Grandpa helped build the Hungry Horse Dam in the 40's.

Canada In The Fall

2010-10-18T11:53:00.007-06:00

When we drive through Canada it is always gorgeous, but this time we hit the weather just right. The colors were amazing and the Rocky Mountains were more majestic looking with all the blue sky we had. This was my 10Th time driving the Al- Can Highway and I have to say my most memorable.
