Sneak Peek - Fresh Faces Contest First Prize Winner

I was so happy to finally get to meet this wonderful family - We had some scheduling snafus but we set a date and they invited us (me and my Husband/Assistant) out to their amazing Farm in Emmett! I was all over that - we had a relaxing drive out there...and for the photos, well I'll let them talk for themselves...



We went for a walk down the street and found (well, they knew it was there!) a dance hall. I loved the red walls - perfect background!



I love this photo! The truck was there and I asked them if it was abandoned - YES! That's like, photographer heaven right there!



I loved these flowers in their yard! (and the Baby J? The cutest baby ever - with the sweetest laugh!)



and the winner, of course.







Thanks so much - your home and farm are beautiful! I had so much fun.

Also (to all other readers!) - We are almost FULL for September! Please email shadylanestudios@gmail.com for available dates!
