Justina

I've been friends with Justina since high school. She went with me for a walk and I brought my camera just in case I found something I liked to take photos of. We walked up to the Butte SBC Archives and she immediately said, "Do you want me to climb into one of those windows?" I gave her a boost and got the window photo below.

The evening light was also amazing, so I took some photos of her on Granite Street. Justina is fearless and isn't afraid to get a little dirty for photos...as well as risk her safety, which I wouldn't let her do!

Baby Abby

Baby Abby was so cute! She was very curious, playing around with chains on the swing, dandelions, and looking around at the world. Her mother is Jennifer, and is shown in one of the photos. The father is in the military and is in Iraq right now. I'm sure he will love to see how his little girl is growing, and see his family over the web. I had a great time taking photos at this portrait session.

Carlyn and Cory Engagement Photos

Carlyn and Cory are getting married September 19th of this year. I had a great time taking photos in the studio and outside north of Walkerville. There are a MILLION more photos and poses, these were just my favorites!

Bridal Fair Saturday

I've been spending the past week preparing non-stop for the Bridal Fair at Thomas' on Saturday. I found out about it last Thursday and decided it would be a great idea to enter a photography booth. It will be a great opportunity to meet brides-to-be and other businesses in the wedding industry. I set up a corner of my table at home to make sure it will look good. I'm using a white lacy tablecloth over a pink tablecloth, pink fake rose petals and some nice easels to display the photos.

Sheena and Jeff's Wedding

I shot this weeding a week ago. It was a blast! I have been friends with Sheena and Jeff for a little over a year now, and was honored to be asked to be the photographer at their wedding. It was great knowing people in the wedding party. The wedding was beautiful and the reception was tons of fun!

Here are just a few of my favorites from before the wedding. I plan on adding photos of the reception and ceremony on a later post.

Edith's 80th Birthday

I took family photos today for an 80th birthday party at the Uptown Cafe. It was a very nice family with some darling children. The first photo is of Edith and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

One of the challenges was that the Uptown Cafe doesn't have anywhere to take group photos inside. However, it wasn't hard to realize the Thornton Building a few doors down would make a great background. It's a beautiful building

Starting This Blog

I already have a variety of web sites, including my daily photo blog of Butte, Montana (buttedailyphoto.com) and my personal web site lisawareham.com.

This blog is dedicated to client work. I plan on including photos from the shoots, any challenges and how I resolved them, and any new ideas I plan to work on.

Enjoy!
