We had so much fun photographing a special celebration with the Steinberg family in Whitefish, MT.  Carrie decided to have her birthday bash with her three kids in the beautiful Flathead Valley near Whitefish, MT. This family comes from all over the US –  New Hampshire, California, and Washington.  They needed to choose the perfect rendezvous location.  They chose to celebrate under the Big Sky of Montana.  We think they did pick the best spot to have their family reunited!

The weather was a little unpredictable as it can be in June in Montana,  but in the end we had the perfect night with the perfect light!  We even had time to feed the neighborhood horses.  We love being Whitefish Montana family photographers!

Thanks Carrie and the rest of the Steinberg family.  We hope you love your family photos and had a wonderful weekend in Whitefish, MT!  Come back soon :)

Roy and I had the honor to photograph one of our all time favorite families.  Meet the McBride’s.  We decided to schedule the family portrait session on one of the coldest, most breeziest days in Colorado history (well, at least that’s what it felt like).  It was still a success and we had a lot of fun snapping a few photos in between the big gusts of wind and rain.  We are so thankful to have these cuties as part of our family.  Sullie always makes us laugh with his full throttle excitement and for now, Marley enjoys observing the craziness.

To keep Sullivan distracted from the cold, we told him to scream “Monster’s Inc.”- I think it worked!

Thanks McBride family for letting Brooke Peterson Photography take your family portraits.  We love you.

This is what I like to call the “Married-and-so-in-love-session!” Greg and Kelly sure demonstrated this well, don’t you think?  These two have become some of our best friends down here in Denver.  Maybe what makes them so cool and compatible is because they are from Montana- same place we’re from. ;)

Greg and Kelly are both graduating from the University of Colorado’s School of Medicine this year and will probably head out of town for Greg’s residency next year.  So, we wanted to visit some memorable places for the shoot.  Our first stop for their shoot was Anschutz Medical Campus, a place where a whole lot of their time is spent.  Our second stop was at City Park- the park right near their home. Thanks for having me do these G & K.  You two are going to be the cutest doctor/nurse couple ever!!

I stopped in Bozeman a few weeks ago to photograph the adorable Fleury family- for the second time! Back in January 2011 I took their photos, so it was fun to change seasons and do a shoot in the summer time.  They have the most beautiful backyard to shoot at- right on the Gallatin River.  They put their property to great use, too.  Jason and Julie Fleury are the owners and operators of TroutChasers Lodge, a full-service fly fishing lodge.  Pretty cool, huh!?

Thanks Julie, Jason and Annalise- it sure was great to see you guys again!
