Boise Branding Photographer | Lifestyle Photoshoot for a Children’s Clothing Brand

I worked with Cloudroom, an incredible custom children’s clothing brand on a lifestyle branding photoshoot in the Boise foothills at the very best time of day, sunset. This outdoor brand session focused on custom-designed clothing and natural and authentic story-driven imagery created specifically for marketing and brand growth across multiple platforms (web, social, and event & retail signage).

I sourced two different models for the branding photoshoot, and anytime you’re working with children you know things don’t always go according to plan, so in the end I actually had to source a third model after one of our young models refused to wear the Cloudroom clothes for the photoshoot :). As a dad myself I completely understood and I would never want a child to be photographed against their will.

I will never get tired of the Boise Foothills at sunset for photoshoots. The low sunlight is so beautiful and dreamy and the desert terrain reflects a lot of light, which creates a great combination for producing unique lifestyle photos.

I love Cloudroom’s approach to children’s clothing, the CEO Kate finds different artists to create custom designs for each clothing drop. The name of this design is Bugland and this was the second project that I worked with Cloudroom on and it was so much fun. I always know that my values and style both align very well with this brand, so I can photograph very naturally and intuitively which I love.

I’ll let the photos tell the rest of the story, but if you need a branding photography session for your business, click here to contact me, I’d love to talk and see if I could be a good fit.

Boise Bicycle Project | Boise Idaho Photographer

For as long as I can remember, I've loved bikes.I can remember pushing myself to learn to ride without training wheels when I was only four years old.I can remember begging my mom to let me ride my bike to elementary schoolI can remember spending every day after school riding bikes in the Western Colorado desert with my friends (a little "ghost riding" down some hills mixed in there iykyk :)).And still to this day I love riding bikes. Every year I set the goal to ride a minimum of 1000 miles and I typically ride more like 1500 miles (unless I shatter my collarbone of course, RIP 2024 goals 🤣). The majority of those miles are on my mountain bike in the Boise Foothills, ducking out of my work as a photographer to crank out some hard miles.Needless to say bikes have always been, and will always be a big part of my life. I've always said that I see the world better from a bike, and it's really true.I can't remember when or how I first heard about Boise Bicycle Project, but BBP, is this beautiful merging of so many things I love, and best of all it's all for a good cause. Boise Bicycle Project has given away over 35,000 bikes (yes three zeros) since 2007, and they teach people how to repair bikes and run programs to connect our beautiful community.BBP hired me in March to photograph their event Bike Prom, their annual fundraising gala. It was hosted at The Linen Building in downtown Boise, and I was honored to be the photographer for the event, and I even had my photobooth, Boothshakalaka, there for the evening as well. I left this photoshoot feeling really inspired about Boise Bicycle Project and the work they do in our community. BBP is a place that is truly working to do good, to be a safe place, and to bring the community of Boise together. I loved seeing all of the amazing outfits (look for the dumb and dumber dresses in these photos, and the bike shorts on the bottom and suit jacket on the top 🤣), loved seeing the bikes parked all around the Linen Building and loved seeing a group of people coming together to connect and support something beautiful.As a photographer I get a unique vantage point at any event, being an outsider who gets to show up present as a witness to all of the things, both big and small that happen. I'll let the photos tell the rest of the story, but what a fun and inspiring evening.
