a log cabin in the snow & a feather bed with the BROOKE family!!!

ready for a serious amount of fun?   to sum it all up… a tiny little log cabin up in big bear mountain in the snowy winter, millions (and i mean millions) of loose feathers and one overfilled (and then ripped open) feather bed, footie jammies, a big abandoned barn, lots of laughter and one amazing family, the brookes, (they are wedding photographers themselves so it was such a huge honor to photograph them) who are our new sweet friends that we are so very happy to now live life alongside!  we had anticipated it for half a year, counted it down to the hours, collected feathers for weeks and then laughed straight through from start to finish.  it was madness and i am pretty sure that we are all still finding feathers in the most interesting of places, lol.  now prepare yourself for a lot of images, i just couldn’t bear to narrow them down, and these are just my favorites.  ;)
