Newborn Session in Missoula, Montana

Welcoming a new baby into the world brings with it a blur of emotions, long nights, quiet moments, and a whole new kind of love. And while many people imagine those classic “newborn photos” happening within the first week or two of life, Tatum’s session with his parents, Stephanie and Jordan, was the perfect reminder that you don’t need to rush the process to capture meaningful, beautiful memories.

There’s something undeniably magical about a fresh snowfall, and when Caitlyn reached out for a mom-and-me session with her kids, Piper and Titus, I knew it was going to be an unforgettable day. After a major snowstorm had blanketed the valley, we met up on their family farm in Stevensville, Montana. The landscape was transformed into a true winter wonderland, and it set the perfect stage for capturing the essence of their family’s joy and connection.

Family Session in Missoula, Montana- Burwell Family

There’s something truly timeless about fall in Montana—especially when you’re photographing a family as joyful and connected as the Burwells. On a crisp autumn evening, we met in an open field just outside Missoula, where the golden light filtered through the trees and the grasses glowed like they were lit from within. It was the […]

There are sessions that stay with you—and then there are families who do. I’ve had the absolute joy of documenting so many milestones for the Flor family over the past couple of years, and welcoming baby Joseph (JoJo) for his newborn session was such a full-circle moment.

Family Photos in Missoula, Montana- French Family

There’s something about the late summer light in Montana that makes every session feel magical. For the French family, it was the perfect backdrop for a beautiful evening filled with love, joy, and gratitude. The sunset was absolutely stunning, casting a warm glow over the fields as we captured moments of their family together.

Maternity sessions have this special kind of magic to them. They hold all the anticipation, emotion, and quiet in-between moments before life shifts again—and this one with the Flor family was no exception. We met up on an overcast day in Missoula for a calm, joy-filled evening in the open air

South Lake Tahoe Family Photos | Crawford Family

This last minute photo session with the Crawford family ended up being one of the highlights of my trip. When I learned that Justin, Jenna, and baby Gabe had not had any photos taken together since Gabe was born, I knew we had to fit them in.

This precious little guy was an absolute rockstar for his newborn session! The timing worked out perfectly to where he was a week old when I was back in Massachusetts visiting family and I’m so glad that I was able to squeeze this precious session in before coming back home to Montana.

Lifestyle Newborn Photos in Missoula, Montana | Baby Peter

I’m obsessed with everything about baby Peter’s newborn session at home in Missoula. After photographing the Liddell family back in December, I knew that this session would be one of my favorites, but I did not anticipate falling in love with sweet Peter’s full cheeks and chubby fingers quite as much as I did!

Have you ever seen a more beautiful mama? Jalyssa was absolutely stunning for her maternity session for baby #2!
