2009 » michelle kane photography

Thanks for visiting the Michelle Kane Photography Photoblog. This blog exists as a means of sharing information about my photography business, but more importantly, it's where you'll find sneak peek previews of recent sessions. I know full well, that it can be very difficult waiting for the final images from your session. This blog will serve to satiate eager clients.

I've always been saddened by the fact that while growing up, there weren't many family photos taken. So many memories have been long forgotten because they weren't captured on film. I vowed to changed that with my own children. The idea for Michelle Kane Photography was conceived along the same time as my second child. My love for photography was realized with each snap of the shutter, as I began to document the daily lives of my children. I eventually came to discover that I was able to help other families create lasting memories of their loved ones in the same way I was preserving memories of my own family.

My mission for Michelle Kane Photography is to provide innovative and inspired portraiture for people of all ages and to capture the here and now so your memories can live on forever. I am an on location, natural light photographer who delivers contemporary and artistic portraiture for the greater Sheridan, Wyoming area.

visions of summertime dance in my head ::: sheridan, wyoming photography

While nearly everyone is busy posting about Christmas and the new year, smothering their blogs with wintery white images and cold December moments captured, I, on the other hand am dreaming of warmer days, colorful hues and the splendor of summer’s offspring. It’s true, I desperately pine for summer. It is my magical time of...

My girlfriend just turned me onto your blog, I love your work! As I look out my window this morning at snowflakes fluttering to the ground, I share your winter blues. Thanks for the gorgeous flowers.

christina gJanuary 4, 2010 - 11:29 pm

Wow! these are AMAZING!!!! totally beautiful. what a great thing to photograph! I hear ya about the long, dreary winters. I am in N Idaho and we seriously jump up and down when we see the sun. The sun doesn’t come out for real until July around here…it is crazy, but wouldn’t trade it for nothing – love Coeur d’Alene Hope you hang in there…keep shooting those flowers! They are so beautiful!!!

Christine PobkeJanuary 4, 2010 - 9:54 pm

Happy new years, lovely! LOVE the floral shots… and if you’re craving somewhere warm, my offer to come to Australia still stands!! xoxo

MarikaJanuary 4, 2010 - 5:50 pm

I really like those images, and feel your pain… winter is here. CRAP!

Micha WixomJanuary 4, 2010 - 10:09 am

These are amazing macros! Happy New Year!

cindyJanuary 2, 2010 - 4:49 pm

Happy New Year Michelle! I love winter when I can go skiing and when there is snow on the ground and it hasn’t gotten all muddied up. But when it’s just darn cold and bitter, I’m with ya… i don’t care for it either. These beautiful pics warmed me up!

JennyJanuary 1, 2010 - 9:50 pm

LOVE these flower shots… what is the texture that you used? Mind sharing your post production process?
Happy 2010!!!

KaylieJanuary 1, 2010 - 12:38 pm

Just found your site by accident and am SO in love with your work!! You were bookmarked immediately. =)

KateJanuary 1, 2010 - 11:49 am

I am with you! I am soooo NOT a winter person. Love these images so warm and refreshing! Happy New Year to you and your family!

Sunny WrightDecember 31, 2009 - 11:55 pm

I’m with you. I miss my summer. I just blogged about that today too (in a way). Beautiful flower pictures and textures and HAVE FUN SKIING! I broke my tailbone on my first ski adventure and haven’t cared for it since.

JulieDecember 31, 2009 - 8:49 pm

Michelle, hope you are all having a great time! I bet you were back to your previous skiing skills in no time (maybe a little sore though?) Happy New Year!

AudreyDecember 31, 2009 - 5:23 pm

I am feeling your winter blues…..I’m a total summer girl….feel like a caged animal during the winter (just ask the hubby). Beautiful shots though, makes me excited for some colorful days!!

Brianna PhelanDecember 31, 2009 - 3:43 pm

Beautiful shots and great burst of colour. All the best in 2010 to you

s h e r r yDecember 31, 2009 - 2:48 pm

Thanks for sharing these awesome spring-y photos! I like the textures that you used…

JulieDecember 31, 2009 - 1:23 pm

I completely understand…I HATE WINTER! I’m trying migrate further south but so far I haven’t gotten too far.

Jessica CoronadoDecember 31, 2009 - 10:22 am

Beautiful images Michelle. I lived in Monterey CA for 4 years and while I loved looking at the ocean out my living room window I became all too familiar with SAD! Constant fog and no sun started to get to me, my kids too! I feel the same way, winter and I are just never going to be friends. But seriously, those images are just magnificent!!!!!

AlexandraDecember 31, 2009 - 6:31 am

Wow what beautiful images!!!! I can’t wait for spring either

SeanDecember 31, 2009 - 3:21 am

Aww, Michelle! Well the days are getting longer now, and Spring is coming quickly! With colours, patterns, and textures in images like those it’s not hard to fall in love with Summer all over again. I LOVE this time of year though. Such a Winter boy.

CRAVEDecember 31, 2009 - 2:59 am

Yes,I have officially divorced winter! I am so ready for warm days and colorful surroundings.

GORRRGEOUS!! Love this!!

heather starrDecember 30, 2009 - 7:44 pm

congrats!!!

Betty BergDecember 29, 2009 - 4:12 pm

Great interview, Michelle! I giggled about your daughters obsession with rubbing things in her hair and all over her body — my daughter did this a lot when she was too also, she once applied an entire tube of my husbands “hair cement” to herself while I was nursing her baby brother. I like it believe it’s the creative side of her brain that causes her to do such things!

SamanthaDecember 29, 2009 - 2:50 pm

Amazing! Congrats and all the best for 2010!!

Sam

JessicaDecember 28, 2009 - 8:22 pm

hey! I thought I congratulated you but I guess my comment didnt go through!! CONGRATS!! Of course you deserve, your AWESOME!!!

Sunny WrightDecember 27, 2009 - 12:05 am

I finally FINALLY got a chance to check out the interview. I’m super devastated. You are turned off by messy houses and offices and I have to un-welcome to you mine now. LOL! (kidding, I never REALLY type that but I just had to). Congrats girl. Great interview. GREAT images selected to shine. Great. great. great.

elena wDecember 26, 2009 - 4:45 pm

congrats on the feature and the interview. your work is definitely inspiring and it was really cool to read the interview and learn a couple of things about you
Have a blessed season and lots of quiet moments that will allow you to recharge for the new adventures in the new year

JeanetteDecember 26, 2009 - 11:34 am

Oh I LOVE that image!! Beautiful!

Christine PobkeDecember 25, 2009 - 9:07 pm

Aw… I so heart you. Merry Christmas my dear, and congrats on the shoutout – it’s well deserved!!! xoxo

anonymousDecember 24, 2009 - 6:20 pm

It’s a little late, but if you happen to know of a family who won’t have much for Christmas you could really surprise them big with some of your gently used old toy items. We purged the old that way this year and have empty shelves now with room for the new. It probably meant more to me to have the clean shelves than it did to the receiving family, but ya never know. I had the kids help pick toys they wanted to give away and they went to the family’s home with us.

JulieDecember 24, 2009 - 6:17 pm

I read the interview and it was great! You deserve it!! I am certain Christmas will be lots of fun for Juliet this year!

SeanDecember 24, 2009 - 12:58 pm

Aww, your kids sound so cute! I’m sure Juliet will LOVE Christmas day with you guys this year! Love the rose photo. Love it, love it!

Anne PearsonDecember 24, 2009 - 12:45 am

Congratulations! What a neat blog to be featured on. You deserve it…

blessing no. 605 ::: sheridan, wy photographers

Haven’t posted in the blessings category for a while now, despite the fact that I am surrounded by them every day. This image was shot a couple of weeks ago on a *cold* and blustery winter evening. It’s no secret that I despise winter, but even in the midst of this blah season, there are...
