Little FiremenWith my first portrait session, I was extremely nervous. I did it and realized it wasn't quite so bad and I did a pretty good job. When my cousin got married this summer, I decided to use the opportunity to practice taking pictures of people. I knew at the very least my cousin Casey and the rest of the family would love seeing two days worth of pictures in the mountains of people they loved. I was more than pleasantly surprised with the results. So when I flew to Montana to visit Casey's sister Kirsten for a long weekend, I was excited to take pictures of not only the beautiful fall colors, but also of her family. The first photo shoot was all Kirsten's idea. Her husband is a fireman, so she wanted her boys in his turnouts. The littlest guy we stuck in a bucket to keep him upright and stuffed the jacket around him. His older brother got the boots, pants and suspenders. We didn't really do much posing, I just snapped away and let the boys be boys!
Throughout the weekend I surprised her with a few more shots of her and her boys that I'd taken while on photography expeditions for fall colors.
I love this last one. The colors are so vibrant! My last day in town we were relaxing at home when I realized it was snowing! Kirsten rounded up her family and we stepped outside. This one probably won't make it on the wall anywhere, but it's my favorite. I love the props that were pulled in before anyone realized!
How, you might ask, did I keep my camera dry with the giant snowflakes floating about? I borrowed a little fireman's umbrella, of course!
