Morgan Kids






These kids did so good I had to post a few of just them!....and one of their picture ideas, with everyone's hand on a football.


Morgan Family






These are a few of my favorites from the Morgan family shoot. They are all so photogenic. I'm proud of how these turned out and hopefully Matt and Annie will be pleased with them.

Families






A few family photos I've taken recently. Children are such a gift from God, and it is a blessing to get to capture these sweet moments.

Children





Travel Photography






Here are a few of my favorite travel photographs I have taken. My photography philosophy is simple: I want to capture everyday events and expressions that are uniquely special. There is something very honest about a photograph. I don't edit my photos to death. I may crop one or lighten one, but that's about it. Recently I went to a Pioneer Museum in northern Montana. The pictures of the pioneers' faces tell a story. So, too, do these. I want to let them speak for themselves....

More Painting





A few samples of Artwork






Here are a few children and tween's rooms that I have painted.


Welcome to Pigtails and Paintbrushes!

I have finally created a website that is for the sole purpose of showcasing my photography and painting. I came up with the name pigtails and paintbrushes because it speaks to childhood and art, which both my photography and painting includes. I specialize in children and family photography, and in room murals and signs.

I hope you enjoy my work! Feel free to contact me for your photography or artwork needs.
