Bernhardt Family { Winter Portraits Boise, ID }

oh.my.goodness. I have found a new love for backdrops - it's called.... WINTER! The Bernhardts had taken advantage of a mini session back in the fall and before our time together was over, they had already scheduled a winter session! With all the kids out of school and dad being off work today we thought today would be the best day - and boy was it! We didn't really know where we were going so we just started heading UP. We figured we'd eventually hit some snow and not too far out of Boise we did! We found little canyons and off beaten roads and took advantage of it all! (isn't our state so incredibly gorgeous!?) They were up for anything (but I'm sure they were thinking I was nuts when at our first place, the first step into the snow resulted in sinking up to my thigh! (note to self: when photographing a winter shoot, the photographer should wear snow pants! duh! hey, at least I had on snow boots - lol) It was definitely a workout to trek up to our spots but oh so worth it! I know this is a super duper B.I.G. preview but I just couldn't help it (and I know they've been waiting patiently all evening for this - so I hope the volume of it makes up for the wait :) So scroll down, enjoy the winter scenes and if you're thinking you'd like some winter family shots (or kids or couples or seniors) - I'm all over it! Enjoy your preview guys and thanks again for such a wonderful afternoon!
