Mead/ Sunflower Loop.
This totally awesome family met me for an adventure-filled session, exploring hidden gems only discovered through wandering off the beaten path! We kicked things off by pulling over on the side of the road, stepping into a gorgeous open field with purple flowers where we captured stunning family and individual portraits. But we didn’t stop there! They hopped in their car and followed me just 10 minutes down the road to a breathtaking sunflower field, where we laughed, played, and created the most vibrant, joy-filled images. These sessions aren’t just about taking pictures—they’re about exploring, having fun, and making memories in the most beautiful places.
Bigalow- Argonne Area
If you're looking for a stunning and unique setting for your family portraits, the Bigelow Gulch and Argonne area offers the perfect backdrop! We’ll start by meeting at Nom Nom gas station, then head to our first stop—a charming grange hall with a rustic fence that adds a timeless touch to your photos. Next, we’ll move to a wide-open field featuring a beautiful solo tree, where the vast sky becomes the perfect backdrop. And if we’re lucky, the sky will be just right for our final stop—a breathtaking silhouette shot on the side of the road, creating an image that truly shines as a statement piece in your home. This session is all about capturing genuine moments, filled with laughter, dancing, and meaningful family time!
