French Toast Birthday

My life has been blessed with such sweet friends. And this girl here….miss Elisha Guido….is one of those girls that I just adore here in Montana. She has such a big heart for people….and truly helped Reed and I as we were preparing to open up our shop. Elisha loves photography and also runs the radio station for Fresh Life. Ya, she’s pretty cool.

The girls that I run around with are super crafty and creative [did you expect anything other?!?]. They throw such FABULOUS birthday parties for each other and I was honored to photograph this French Toast themed birthday for Elisha.

This party was styled by Carrie Rowe and Sara Trammel. Great job, girls!!!

The photos below include the MENU:: Fresh squeezed orange juice, Chocolate dipped bacon, Homemade cupcakes, Homemade French Toast, Homemade syrups, Lots of toppings, Fresh fruit and Mini donuts!

 

one year ago…today

One year ago today…..I spoke with my dad for the very last time. It was the last time that I heard his voice- the last time that I heard the words “I love you” come from his mouth. I can still hear the sound of his voice. Oh how I miss him.

One year ago today…..I was drenched in love and mercy. Im thankful to God for His amazing grace and for the community of people that gathered around me and loved me well. Your kindness will always be in my heart.

Thank you to my friends, The Katinas, who helped me honor my dad that day.

Below are two videos….that I hope will encourage you to tell your STORY and live your life with purpose….until the very end.

XOXO

In honor of my dad….I sing Amazing Grace with all of my heart.

Lets Go Camping | a styled session

It’s about time that this session has seen the daylight!

Vanessa and I collaborated on this shoot last summer, while we were both living in Nashville, TN. It was hot and humid….did I mention that it was so hot that we were sweating glistening?!? Oh my. It was ridiculous.

Well, this styled shoot was the last one that we dreamed up together before we both packed up our homes and headed to Texas and Montana. Little did we know that we would be styling and photographing another session just a few months later for Creature Comforts!

It’s always an honor to COLLABORATE with Vanessa. We will be joining forces again in just a few days for JOLT | a creative shop in Nashville, Tennessee on June 5th. For more details click here. We’ve got ONE seat left, so if you are interested, please contact us asap!

Our VISION for this session was something campy + woodsy with lots of details……
