Ohhh the mountains. I love them! I live in them. Or 20 minutes away from them. But have I ever gone skiing? Dare I say NO??? Shhhhh... don't tell. Maybe someday. Anyway - I had two (what I have been calling) "mountain shoots" the past week. The weather did NOT want to cooperate. So after much rearranging - we got our "mountain" shoots done. And it was worth the wait. Ohhh it was SOOO gorgeous! I have SO many to post - BUT... I can't because they haven't viewed their images yet. But I told Hollie I would get some up for her tonight.
This family is SO kind. Just GREAT people! They live on (or will... as soon as their home is complete) just the TINIEST piece of land you could imagine. I mean really... it's just TINY. ;0) I could see for MILES and MILES! It was SOOO beautiful. So you can imagine my clausterphobia (which, I apparently can not spell correctly) coming home to my 1/5 of an acre. ;0)
The boys took me on their "terrain" and I LOVED this part! Shooting them in action!
I told Brent (the dad) I *may* use this one below for some type of blackmail. But I think I'll just post it anyway. ;0) We incoporated their horses in their family shoot (that I'm not posting... I've GOT to surprise them SOMEHOW!) And I got a little *out-take* if you will.
They all loved each other so much! SO glad I could be a part of it.
I got beautiful shots of all the kids - SOOO stunning of their girl, as well. Hi *B*. And the other boys are probably wondering where THEY are in this post... I haven't gotten to their images yet. ;0) But when I do - I'll post of them, also. Then there's the family picture.. OHHH sooo gorgeous - snuggled right in the mountains! But I'll keep that for them. ;0)
Night night.
Oh these are awesome!! I love the shots of the boys in action!!
Don't feel too bad about living here in the mountains and never been skiing.... I've lived here my whole life (give or take a couple of years in diff. states since I've been married) and I have NEVER been skiing either!

The last one is really sweet! It's okay that you don't ski. I used to tell my husband while we were dating that I was a hard- core "tuber.";0) So maybe you could take up tubing!

love these!!! love that first one so much. So often we put the kids upfront and the arents are left in the back ground, but I love them upfront like this! and don't feel too bad about the skiing thing... we lived there for years while my husband was finishing school, and ask me if I ever went?!?! That would be a no.... sad, but true! haha
