All Smiles ~ 8-month Essence Session | Idaho Children's photographer

This little cutie came over a couple weeks ago with his parents when they were picking up his older sisters from a playdate with my two girls. I couldn't resist getting him in front of my lens for a little while. He's grown so much since this newborn session, almost nine months ago! He's usually a pretty somber little guy when I see him out and about, but he was so smiley during our impromptu session. I can't get enough of sweet little babies!

To find out how your little one could be a baby model for me in the month of April, give me a call at (208) 674-1283. Happy Friday everyone!

Precious Baby L ~ Idaho Newborn | Lifestyle Photographer

This little guy was so sweet and precious at just five days new. He was fed and sleepy when I arrived so did a few posed images, then moved onto my favorite ones of him with Mom and Dad, and in his room. It was decorated so cute, with little turtles. These first-time parents are so smitten with their little guy. They have been wonderful clients, as I photographed their engagement session and wedding also. They have really become friends. Thanks for letting me capture all the newness and love of little L!

An Idaho Cowboy ~ Idaho Senior Photographer

I had such a great time during this senior session this summer. Drew has a quiet, gentle spirit. He was completely relaxed and in his element, so it was easy to capture his true essence. And because my lifestyle sessions are not simply about what my subjects look like, but rather their personalities and relationships, it's important for me to capture images that speak to real life. From his beautiful sorrel gelding he broke himself, to his custom-made chaps with his family's brand and his initials in the tooling, these details add to his story. Drew comes from a multi-generational ranching family. Many weekends, he can be helping his grandparents or his Dad with their cattle, taking on a lot of responsibility for a young man.

Here are just a few images, but you can see his complete story on my website, www.maggiemalsonphotography.com. Click on the Your Story link under Galleries. If this post receives 20 or more comments, Drew will receive a complimentary 5X7 Gift print from his Your Story lifestyle session. Best of luck as you continue your schooling, Drew!

Bright and Fun ~ "Your Story" Family Session ~ Idaho Lifestyle Photograher

I had such a great time photographing this family at their home. I was so glad when they called to book their session, as these kids are just darling and full of spunk! I told Mom to just tell the kids we were having a playdate, and that's exactly what we did! We ran around the yard, played with bubbles, visited their calves in the pasture, played in the dirt, went on the swingset, and captured some wonderful family memories. I feel this session was another great example of a "Your Story" lifestyle session with me.

During our pre-session consultant, we talked about how photographing them at their home would let them all be more comfortable, and we would also be able to capture beautiful memories of everyday activities they do as a family. We also talked about clothing options-how they could find coordinating options for each member, but that they didn't have to be all matching. I love the bright, fun colors they chose!

 

Thank you "F" family for inviting me into your home and letting me capture these memories for you! It was a lot of fun!

Two Girls and a Boy Bring Lots of Joy ~ Idaho Children's Photography

I was so excited to hear that Baby T made a safe arrival into the world in June. This sweet little boy is already loved so much by his family. You may have remembered his beautiful glowing mama I photographed before he arrived.


It was fun to not only capture the newness of this sweet little guy, but I was also invited to a lovely little tea party with his big sisters!


I love photographing newborns at their home. Everyone is relaxed and comfortable, plus I get to capture all the details of the baby's nursery. Dad's a big car lover. And Mom was super creative in decorating his vintage car themed room, complete with old tools from baby T's grandpa used.


Thank you Deanna and Stuart for welcoming me into your home and letting me capture these fleeting moments for you. As the kids grow, I hope you look back at your portraits and remember this special time.


Just looking back at these images makes me think of my own babies and how much they've grown. Ahh, time goes by so fast. Enjoy each minute of it!!


Leave this family a little blog love. If this post receives 10 or more comments, this family will receive a complimentary 5X7 image.

Beautiful Couple ~ Fall Wedding | Fruitland, Idaho Photographer

  

 

 







 It was such a pleasure to photograph Kelcie and Blayne's fall wedding. They are such a beautiful couple both inside and out. They are madly in love, and it showed. Surrounded by family and friends, they said I do just before sunset on a lovely September evening. Thank you both for letting me be a part of your special day. God bless you always!

Sweet Love ~ Idaho Portrait Photographer

 

 

This is such an amazing couple. And I had so much fun capturing their engagement portraits. I am so thankful Blayne's mom contacted me about the session, because he and Kelcie are the nicest couple. The location was beautiful, and the family very welcoming. I just loved the way they looked at each other--very adoringly. So excited to photograph their upcoming wedding as well. Congratulations to you both! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of my goals for 2011 was to blog more images from each session because my style of photography is so storytelling. I love capturing the details about my clients, as well as how they interact. My goal for each session is for clients to have fun and be relaxed, and I've definitely had some great sessions lately. It's been a little crazy around here, but after getting close to caught up on editing, ordering sessions and designing albums, I can catch up on all the blog posts I have coming. Get ready; there will be a lot to see soon! And don't forget to leave comments. For each post that receives 10 or more comments, a client will receive a complimentary 5X7 print.
