miss marlowe…

oh miss marlowe…you are too sweet for words.   i have been photographing this little love since she was just days old.  it has been wonderful watching her change into a little girl.  her red locks are so beautiful and i hope she grows curls of red forever and ever.  i am so happy miss marlowe decided she wanted to have her picture taken…it took her a couple hours  🙂  but, was most definitely worth the wait.  as you will see there is lots and lots of sweetness below.  thank you, lisa and dave.  i loved my time with your family.  and, a special thanks to grandma for helping us at our shoot and letting us use her beautiful yard.  🙂

amazing…jinky art and montana…

i cannot believe it has already been two weeks since i traveled to the beautiful state of montana to meet barb uil of jinky art .  my experience can only be described with one word..amazing. it was a chance of a lifetime to be educated by barb…she has a talent that is admired worldwide.  our home for two days was the most wonderful family ranch just outside of hamilton, montana.  it truly was beauty beyond belief and a photographer’s dream…literally.  a beautiful farm house situated at the foot of the mountains…i felt like i was sitting in the midst of country living magazine.  and, the light…the light at dusk was breathtaking and to us photographers light is everything.  for two days barb inspired the 12 of us who were there…we laughed, listened, learned and photographed the most adorable children.  i loved every minute of my time there…and, left with a spinning mind of ideas and excitement to get back to my clients in minnesota.

please take some time to go look at barb’s work…she will draw you in with her lovely, whimsical, soulful photography.  meeting barb was an experience i will cherish forever…she has changed the way i look at my business and for that i will forever be grateful.  jinky art blog
