Ember and Erick's Wyoming Wedding

Ember and Erick were just as sweet as can be and sweet on each other too! Smooches, hugs, and looks of love came easy during their portrait time. My assistant and I found the perfect spot to photograph these two lovebirds with their navy blue, burgundy, and sunflower themed wedding. The time we had alone with these two was the best. We began right on time with a first look and then was able to use the remaining time to capture amazing images of these two! Thank you Ember and Erick for sharing your day with us!

How often do you need custom photography?

Ultimately, that is your choice. For more clients, they will choose to document more of their children as they are smaller and then milestones as they get older. Babies and toddlers change so rapidly that they need to be photographed more than the tween and teens. We suggest a newborn, 7 month (or when they are sitting), and one year session for their first year. Then we move on to yearly portrait sessions. Once they are seniors in high school, this is typically the last time you really get to have them photographed until their wedding.

You may decide on more per year to update the family portrait. Keep in mind that these are the special portraits that will document their life and they will have as keepsakes forever.

Corbin's 7-month Baby Plan Portrait Session

Corbin is back for his 7-month baby plan portrait session and oh boy did we have fun with this big guy! Corbin made us work a little harder to get him warmed up to the studio and to my assistant and I, but it was totally worth it! Corbin has such cute expressions and big smiles. It was hard to pick just a few photographs to show off on the blog.
