courtney & joe | preview

It was pretty hard to choose just one to preview, but this moment right before the sun tucked behind the Tetons was pretty gorgeous. Courtney and Joe are getting married here this September, and this was their first experience in Jackson Hole. I’m pretty sure they were blown away by the amazing weather and perfect scenery…and will always remember this first (but not last) time in Jackson. Can’t wait to show them more!

you really can’t plan it any better

See, kids are the most perfect subjects because a) they don’t often care what you think or how they look and b) they come up with stuff you never would have. Let’s take Harper, for example. This weekend, some kids were dressing up from stuff in Owen’s dress-up drawer, mostly super hero costumes. So Harper decides to dress up too. “Oh, look here’s two pair of fun glasses. I’ll wear them both.” I mean, this photos KILLS me how cute he is (and I think people who aren’t his mom might feel the same.) All you have to do is to open your eyes to what’s in front of you, grab the nearest camera, which most of the time will be your phone (that’s ok!) and get the shot. Dirty faces, mismatched outfits and all. They’re begging you to! As my friend, Jeanne, likes to say “F8 and be there.” (even though I prefer a much wider aperture : )

 

steph & her girls | driggs family photographer

Another long-overdue post:

This is Steph and her adorable daughters. Steph is a friend/neighbor/teacher of ours and one of the sweetest, most genuine people I’ve ever met. She started Discoveries Preschool here in Driggs last fall, and did so much for my son, Owen. I’ll be eternally grateful for her helping to bring him out of his shell and get him learning all about the world! She has also raised the most polite, lovely little girls, Eliza and Avery. Last fall, we got together for a photo shoot in their backyard. There was beautiful fall color and even more beautiful subjects. Here they are!
