{expecting} | kalispell maternity photographer

there's nothing more beautiful than the glow of a mother-to-be. L is just about 36 weeks and looks so great! we braved the snow, mud and rain and got some great belly shots. it was a fun time and a wonderful winter day.

thank you so much for spending a bit of the afternoon with me. i'm super excited to meet your new little one!! here's your sneak peek...i hope you love them!

the final test :) | kalispell child photographer

so, i did some other test, but didn't didn't have time to share them. anyway, i'm still testing out 2 lenses and i have made my mind up, but i thought i'd still show these! :)

if you visit my blog, i'm sure you recognize this little girl....
well, i dragged her brothers out with me this time too :) i adore these kids with all my heart.
they are like my own (and best friends of my own). they are super fantastic!!
thanks e for letting me play with them!!!

as for the lenses....all of the photos with color block border on them are one lens and all the photos with no color block edge are from the other lens.
thought i would mix them all up this time.
{also, if you are wondering what i was using and what my thoughts were, shoot me an email.
i'm happy to chat!}

{it's a test!} | kalispell child photographer

all this week i am test driving a couple lenses. i'm trying to figure out which one i like the best...and am having a hard time! so, i'm going to put a couple "tests" up this week.
i will have set one, all taken with one lens and i will have set two, all taken with the other lens.
i would LOVE any feedback, comments, opinions...anything you got!
(i'm still learning these lenses...so cut me a little slack. haha)

it's amazing how well he behaves when bribed with a bubble bath :)

{baby tucker} | kalispell newborn photographer

if there was ever a face that you could gobble up, mr. tucker's would be it!!
those cheeks, those lips and that perfect little nose!! doesn't get much cuter!
tucker is one loved and longed for little man. he is just a pure joy to everyone around him.
although he was not thrilled at having a naked photo session, i think we finally wore him out (at least for a couple minutes) and got some great photos of this handsome baby!!
thank you SO much m and j for letting me into your home
and the opportunity to photograph your perfect little boy!!
here's a little sneak peek...i hope you love them!!
