Nestled in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, Hailey and Nate's Seattle Washington wedding at The Lodge at St Edward Park took place on a late August day, surrounded by the serene beauty of nature. And it was a truly perfect day for them! One might say, a "Goldilocks" kind of day — not too hot, not too cold...juuuust right. Hailey and Nate, a couple whose connection is rooted in the great outdoors, welcomed friends and family from all corners of the globe to witness their union. Against a backdrop of blue skies, tall trees, and the majestic expanse of St. Edward Park, their wedding day unfolded like a dream. The ceremony was a symphony ...
Dimitri + Jenn :: September Triple Creek Ranch Elopement
Dimitri and Jenn, along with their immediate family, traveled up to Montana from California for their September Triple Creek Ranch elopement. And boy, was it ever a perfect day for these two to promise their love to each other! We started the day out by zipping around to some pretty sweet vistas overlooking the Bitterroot mountains, and were treated to a blue sky day — a bit of a rarity during a fairly smoky summer! Autumn colors had even started to pop in amongst the greenery, which made the most stunning backdrop for some fun portraits of the soon-to-be-married couple. After making our images (and kudos to Dimitri and Jenn for ...
Alexis + Joe :: Bowman Lake Elopement in Glacier National Park
It was one heckuva gorgeous Montana day for Alexis and Joe's Bowman Lake elopement in Glacier National Park. We had a bluebird sky above, pristine reflections on the lake in front of us, and oh so much sun! Suffice it to say, Montana really pulled out all the stops for Alexis and Joe's special day! These two originally met in Denver at a bluegrass show and moved to Missoula a little over two years ago. Because they love their time in the outdoors (camping and hiking especially), Joe proposed to Alexis in Glacier. So it was particularly fitting that they tied the knot there, too! We started out the day by meeting up at their Air BnB just ...
Kelsey + John :: Summertime Glacier National Park Elopement
Every time I go to Glacier it's always a little bit different, which is something that I just adore about zipping on up there. Kelsey and John live in Pennsylvania but worked in Glacier for 6 months in 2017 and had many fond memories of their time in the area. So they knew the perfect way to start their married life together would be to have a summertime Glacier National Park elopement. And perfection it was! John's sister, Mary, joined them as well as Kyle, John's longtime best friend, who was also their officiant. We had such a wonderful time checking out the park together, all of us piled into their rented Subaru, and started out at ...
Kelly + Dustin :: East Glacier Elopement in Glacier National Park
Fittingly, as I write this post, it's pouring rain and storming in Missoula. Montana has had a very wet summer, which Kelly, Dustin and I also experienced firsthand during their East Glacier elopement at Lake Josephine. (Though I can't say I'm complaining - this means we've also had little-to-no wildfires and their subsequent smoke to deal with, so I'm all for some soggy weather that's devoid of lightning strikes.) As soon as we met up at the trailhead the rain began, but they weren't going to let a few (or many) raindrops deter them. So we started out on our hike armed with rain jackets, umbrellas, bear spray and lots of smiles. Soon ...
Kirk + Erinne :: Trask River Wedding in Tillamook Oregon
Things I learned at my brother's wedding: 1) It's incredibly difficult to photograph when you have tears streaming down your face and you cannot see through your viewfinder. 2) It's incredibly difficult to edit said photos when you have tears streaming down your face and you cannot see your computer screen. And 3) It is incredibly difficult to write a blog post about said wedding when you have tears streaming down your face as you are attempting to type coherent sentences. Suffice it to say, the emotions were REAL and raw and beautiful at Kirk and Erinne's Trask River wedding in Tillamook Oregon. And it was an awesome weekend for the two of ...
Kate + Tommy :: Smoky Summer Glacier National Park Elopement
I truly, honestly feel like I am the luckiest person in the world getting to do the job that I do. And it's because I get to meet people like Kate and Tommy. Their smoky summer Glacier National Park elopement was magical, romantic, and chock-full of love, emotion tenderness and true beauty. Their love, their happiness, their joy just filled my soul to the very brim and left my entire being grinning. But let's back up a bit. From the moment Kate contacted me about her elopement in Glacier, I knew we'd have a fantastic time. We had such a great conversation over the phone and she told me that she and Tommy first met playing a video game, ...
Abby + Austin :: McDonald Lake Elopement in St Ignatius Montana
I'm a total believer in serendipity. And the fact that I got to work with Abby and Austin at their McDonald Lake Elopement in St Ignatius Montana is a testament to the fact that serendipity is a real, true, AWESOME thing! When Abby first contacted me about being their photographer, her message to me was amazing, full of warmth and excitement, and had the greatest story to tell me. When she and Austin were visiting their friend Tyler in Missoula in the fall of 2016, on their very last day, they zipped up to Glacier. As they were making their way through the park, they saw a couple who had just gotten married, and leaned out their car window ...
Ashley + Wayne :: Elopement in Glacier National Park
I'm pretty sure I've got the best job in the world. When Ashley contacted me way back when about photographing her and Wayne's elopement in Glacier National Park, I swear, we were just giddy and happy and giggling on the phone to one another the entire call. So I knew we'd have such a wonderful time making images together on their wedding day. She and Wayne, their dog, Noose, and her sister and her sister's husband all made the trek out to Montana together to check out Glacier for the first time, and to get hitched while they were out here. Not only did they get to say their "I Do's" in Montana, they also got to celebrate Ashley's ...
HJ + John :: Intimate Wedding at the Triple Creek Ranch in Darby Montana
I say this a lot, I know, but it really couldn't have been a more perfect, beautiful day for HJ and John's intimate wedding at the Triple Creek Ranch in Darby Montana. They were so excited and happy to be married, and their friends were just as gleeful to see these two tie the knot, so to speak. As I chatted with them a bit, I learned that HJ is Scottish and John is Irish, and they met on an airplane 13 years ago. (This is now becoming a theme for several of my couples - perhaps I need to start traveling more? Haha!) They've visited the ranch four times in the past five years so it seemed particularly fitting that they be married there, ...
