It’s a huge understatement to say how enjoyable it’s been over the past nine years to get to work with Katie and Mike and capture their life events on film for them! So, during their family session this past spring I was especially excited to hear that they were expecting again in February, and even happier to get to photograph their wintry Missoula maternity photos to ring in 2020, this time with big sister, Ruth, as part of the images, too!

We’ve had a pretty warm winter thus far, but I think Mother Nature heard our pleas for snow and treated us to a fresh dusting that afternoon, as well as some perfectly-timed snowflakes a little later on during our session! We’ve shot in this location regularly during the past nine years of making images together, and it’s always fun to see how the seasons change along with the changes and additions to their family!

Ruth was happy to give her little brother kisses but was a bit unsure about being in the cold for some photos. However, I think she did great, especially as an opinionated 2-year-old! (I especially loved her addition of mardi gras necklaces to her look! Gotta love being two!)

And even the family’s two dogs, Drake and Dozer, joined us for a few images too, in between their bouts of wrestling and running around in the snow!

Katie, of course, just glowed in her emerald-green gown, which paired perfectly with the snow-dusted evergreens behind her! We joked that she should jump in the creek like she did for her maternity images when she was pregnant with Ruth, but decided to forego it this time around since January was just a touch chillier than our August images had been. ;)

Katie, Mike and Ruth! Thank you again for all the laughs and fun and braving the cold! You have such a beautiful family, and I can’t wait to meet little mister Mikey soon. This is such an exciting time for you all, and I’m so glad I got to capture yet another wonderful life event for you all! Cheers to your soon-to-be family of four – woo hoo!

I know I’ve said this before, but I’ll say it again – there’s really nothing better than getting to work with past clients in new stages of their lives. So when Kelci and Michael contacted me about doing their wintry Missoula maternity photos to document the excitement surrounding their very first baby, I was, simply put, giddy (which is totally an understatement). I’ve had the pleasure of getting to photograph their engagement, their wedding, now their maternity session, and soon, their sweet little baby!

As I knew we would, we had such a blast making these photos. Kelci and Michael are the absolute sweetest people, and were just as excited as I was by all the new snow we had been treated to. Talk about a winter wonderland (or, technically autumn – yay wacky Montana weather!).

It was so fun to see just how thrilled they are to meet their baby girl, and how happy they are as a couple together. We giggled, we laughed, we tromped through the snow, we danced in the snowflakes, and avoided being hit by “snow bombs” dropping off the trees – their session was pure perfection!

Kelci and Michael, it goes without saying, of course, but thank you a million times over again for such a delightful session! I am just so happy for you two and I cannot WAIT to meet that sweet little girl of yours! Soon soon! :)
