The Phillips Family

I still remember the day I met Jake and Allie. We were at a wedding, and they were the best man and maid of honor. They were kind, so, so helpful, and were part of an amazing group of friends. I remember even getting a chance to talk theology with them at the wedding (something I love to talk about). It was years later I had the chance to take photos of them and their growing family, and I believe this may be the third time now! It’s such a huge compliment, and I absolutely love seeing them every time they have me come out to take their photos. Those boys are growing, and growing fast! Here are some of my favorites from the shoot.

Gabe and Mary's Family Photos!

It’s crazy to me to think that Gabe and Mary’s wedding was a couple of YEARS ago, which just blows my mind. Their wedding was amazing for so many reasons, but to be contacted later and asked to photograph their growing family was such a huge compliment. Being able to be there for the engagement, wedding, and then watch a family grow? Man. It was so great to see them and their absolutely beautiful daughter. But now I have the chance to share these family photos! I hope you all love them as much as I loved taking them.

Dorame Family Photos Near Coeur d'Alene

I only had the chance to meet a couple of the Dorame family members before our shoot, so getting to meet their whole family of four was a huge privilege. They were so easy to get along with, quick to smile and so photogenic. What a privilege being able to get some great photos of this beautiful family.

Christmas Family Photos with the Hockers

I only had the chance to meet the Hocker family the day we did their family shoot. We got lucky with no rain, and semi-warm weather. It was beautiful. That said, I had an absolute blast getting to know this family of five, more if you count grandma and gramps and the beautiful girlfriend who also came along. We had a lot of fun, with some great personality, and i’m excited to be able to share them with you.

I know I talk about this a lot, but I do that because it’s true. The compliment of being able to see the same family every year is immense. The idea that you can take someone’s photo, capture them, and they come back a year later and say “hey, you did such a great job capturing the most valuable thing in life, we want you to do it again.” humbles me. This is even more true with Kevin and Alex and their beautiful family, as i’ve had the chance to be there from their engagement, to the pregnancy announcements and now to their beautiful family of five. In addition to that, getting to meet even more people in their family this time was huge, and so so great. I’m very excited to share these ones from our big family shoot out in the fields.

A couple of years ago I had the chance to meet this incredible family (at the time, just Jake and Allie) at a wedding. They were kind and so helpful. Then a couple of years went by and they had a beautiful baby boy, and were expecting a second when I had the chance to see them again for some family photos, which I absolutely love how they turned out. So getting to see them again this year, capture their growing and beautiful family again was an absolute privilege, never mind even the great company and conversation we had after the shoot. Here are some of my favorites of this beautiful growing family.
