Come take the adventure with me to this family shoot in Boise, Idaho. I recently attended a styled shoot hosted by 3 talented photographers, Cheri, Kelly, and Laura, in Idaho. I enjoyed everything about this trip except that the flight felt long. Several delays added to the time invested.
We were in the mountains of Idaho and found a beautiful trail at the top, which we used for the shoot. The light filtering through the trees gave the most beautiful light to complement the family.
Living in West Texas and then seeing scenery like this makes me question why West Texas. Enough about Texas; back to Idaho.
I arrived in Idaho around noon, which allowed me to drive around and scope out the Capital building. Yes, I did get a little history lesson while I was there.
Our first place to eat was the Lemon Tree restaurant. The Funky Taco was one of my favorite places to eat. You cannot go wrong eating here.
From the restaurant, we headed to the shoot location. As mentioned above, the mountains are beautiful, and the fresh air smells inviting. Doesn’t this make you want to take a trip to Idaho? Don’t let me stop you; the botanical garden was another attractive place to explore and catch up on local history.
The boys and dad came dressed and ready for the session while Laura packed the skirt and dress for Mama and Sister to wear. Laura also provided the earrings. The top Sister wore was made specifically for this shoot by her mama, and it turned out so beautifully.
I enjoyed attending this shoot, and the family was perfect.
