Let me rephrase that.... especially photographers need their portraits taken!
Tuesday was a fabulous "work" day. The fabulous miss Morgan Roof and I headed to Livingston to meet up with Larry Stanley and a handful of other talented local photographers at Melanie Nashan's studio. We had some nice photo chat.. discussed the economy... and generally reconnected before all of us head into the craziness of wedding season. The longer I am in this industry, the more I love and appreciate my fellow wedding photographers. Morgan is new to the industry and has jumped in feet first! Her talent has blossomed in a very short amount of time. She has become one of the most sought after photographers in the valley! Not only do her photographs glow and impress, so does her personality. She is a delight to work with and we are quickly becoming, not to sound too cheesy, kindred spirits!
Larry, Morgan and I decided that we all need a new portrait, so we headed over to Larry and my studio in Bozeman for our rotating 3-way photo shoot. It is always great to get on the other side of the camera. We photogs forget how strange and kind of uncomfortable it is to have a camera in your face!
Morgan just posted some pics of me from the shoot on her blog. Check em out! She did an amazing job!
Miss Morgan Roof thinks she needs more modeling practice, but I think otherwise! She is extremely photogenic and the true Morgan definitely shined through.
Her you go girl... hope you likely :) LOVE YOU!
This is my favorite of the bunch! I love to get Morgan laughing!
I call this one "Super Morgan"!
Here are some fun shots I got of Larry photographing Morgan... both Larry and Morgan working their magic!

This is Angela (left) and Tiffany (right) of Fresh Designs. They launched this new innovative business last year. They are specializing in creative and unique floral and wedding design. I am always excited to work with new folks in the industry; especially creative young women like myself :). I have actually had the chance to work with miss Angela many times in the past few years. You may remember seeing pictures of Angela last year... I was honored to photograph her wedding in August of 2007. You can check out her wedding pictures if you click HERE and you'll see many of them posted throughout their website. Angela worked with Katalin Green Design for a large chunk of time in which I worked with her at many events as well. She really has amazing talent for floral design and they are both the most even-keel easiest people to deal with, even under crazy wedding day pressure and complications. I would fully trust my wedding day completely to these amazingly talented and capable women.
I did these portraits for the girls last September. It is kind of funny... Tiffany is like 8 months pregnant in these photos but you can't really tell. I did my darnedest to crop her cute baby belly out and shoot from a flattering angle (not like she needs it, but we were trying to make her look un-prego). At any rate, I am super excited to work with Angela and Tiffany in the months (yes, its true, wedding season will be here before we know it) and years to come. Angela and Tiffany are pretty much amazing and I highly recommend their services!
