The Alaskan Family!

When Scott worked for Maxim Technologies, he became good friends with an engineer who worked in the Helena office.  Soon the whole family became friends of our family.  Then Aaron took a job in Alaska, and he and his family moved to Anchorage.  Even over the distance, Scott and Aaron have remained friends.  They email and call each other (mostly Aaron calling, but Scott enjoying the chat) and have kept up the relationship.  It seems that there are only a few people that come into our lives that actually stay friends over time and distance!


Since Aaron and his family return to Montana once a year, they decided to have Scott take some family portraits for them on this trip.


We decided to do the photography shoot at Ryan Dam near Great Falls, Montana.  There is a beautiful island right below the dam that has been turned into a park, Ryan Island Park.  The rocks were great for adding some texture to the portraits!


Scott even had some fun with one of the old frames that had been put on a rock!


Thank you, Aaron and Julie, for trusting us to capture this memory!  We enjoyed working with you and your family.  It was great to visit with you and see you again!
