This year, we went for two distinct styles: sexy librarian, and rocker chic. Ali totally embodied both these looks and I can&#8217;t even begin to describe to you just how much laughter was involved. Suffice it to say, our cheeks hurt from smiling so much.<\/p>\n<p>Also, on a more technical nerdy photographer note, I experimented with a slightly different processing style on these pics to really emulate the look of film. (Remember film? Those lovely long strips, developed and printed by hand in a dark room? *wistful sigh*) And we had a little fun painting with light towards the end of our shoot. So, with no further ado, I hope you enjoy these images as much as we had fun making them. :) And here&#8217;s to dreams of warm Montana summers&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a
