Golfing Beauty | Missoula Child Portrait Photographer

I'm a little ashamed that I've been so MIA from my own blog. I'm not going to lie, April has been a whirlwind of events, and planning, and trying to stay on top of everything has been a little bit interesting! So I'm finally getting to share this amazing "fantasy and imagination" session with everyone.

This was a team effort between me and Jennifer at Skin Chic. We wanted something whimsical and full of bright beauty. Collaborating with a local floral shop, The Flower Bed in Missoula, we headed out to Larchmont Golf course on a true Montana spring day and enjoyed the finer things in life. 

Enjoy, and let your imagination take flight.

Seniorologie | Chic Critique Forum | VioletRay Photography

Wow!! This year's WPPI convention in Las Vegas was nothing shy of magical! To top it all off, it was my birthday on the day of the Seniorologie Ghost Town Shootout!

We had 4 amazing, talented and lovely models. Each themed with their own unique style, we broke off into groups of 4 with leaders helping us along the way with ideas and fun ways to give Senior Photography that edgy look!

Here's a sneak peak at our crew, and the magic I saw behind my lens. *hearts*

Avant-Garde

Beauty, Passion, Fashion, and Art.

These are things that made up this session. A local makeup artist and I got together to brain storm on a fun session to get ourselves out of our wet wintertime blues. When we met to discuss it, we knew we wanted high fashion and couture. Then when I pulled out my stash of "GracyLu Original" hats and hair pieces, the puzzle came together.

Jennifer and I knew who our two models were going to be, and based on that, we chose the hair pieces that we wanted them to showcase. From there, we went clothes hunting, choosing very chic and edgy clothing to accent our "center pieces".

When it came to the day of the shoot, it was downpouring torrential buckets of sleet, so we drove up almost 4,200 ft above sea level to the Lolo National Forest and used the natural backdrop of the forest to accent our high fashion, couture style. SUCCESS! The haze of fog coming through the ravine of the mountains gave us a sense of mystery and romanticism that is hard to replicate!
