A Smokey Day on Flathead Lake in Summer of 2017

Natalie Burno

I spent the first 20ish years of my life in a small town in Southern California. From the time I can remember anything, I can recall my dad and grandpa with cameras in-hand. As soon as I was big enough to hold one too, I was. My love for Photography only grew with the years. My senior year of High School I was introduced to Graphic Design. I quickly realized that my love of Photography had some competition.

February 29 of 2016 (yes, it was a leap year), I set off from California with a very loaded down Jeep to move to Northwest Montana. I arrived March 2, 2016 - 4 days short of my 21st Birthday (March 6). I’ve been here ever since. Learning and growing in life and craft.

I’ve dreamed of living in Montana since around the time I was able to hold a camera and use it. I moved having never been before. I believe Jesus called me here. I believe he made me for this place and the people in it. And boy, am I glad for it! I still pinch myself on the daily. I am beyond thrilled that this is where I get to do life.

I love all-things outdoors and Montana is definitely a playground in that sense. I’ve never felt more at home in a place. It would take several lifetimes to explore it all, and I get most of mine to do just that - explore.

I built this site to serve as an online portfolio. I am not sure where it’ll lead, but I’m excited to find out. Thanks for reading and checking out my work. Please reach out via email (on the “get in touch” page) for pricing/job inquiries. I also have my instagram linked at the bottom of each page, so make sure you check me out there, too!

Cheers!
