After a couple years of planning and several delays (you know, because pandemic times), I was beyond delighted to document Matthew and Andrew's Woodson Ranch Wedding in Sheridan Montana. Not only is the ranch absolutely gorgeous, it's also incredibly special to Matthew and his family. His grandfather purchased the ranch when he was born and his family has been running it ever since as part of the Ruby Habitat Foundation (which is super cool — check it out!). Matthew spent three summers working on the ranch, as well as many summers visiting it. After having met Andrew, they would visit the ranch often. And, in fact, they even got engaged ...
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 ...
Melisa + Zack ::Â Dutton Montana Farm Rock the Dress Portraits
It's no secret that I seriously have a soft spot in my heart for rock the dress sessions because these sessions tend to allow us to get a little more creative with what we can do outside of the wedding day. And when rock the dress sessions include horses, chickens, and dogs (not to mention an awesome bride and groom), then, oh yes, sign me up for the fun! Melisa and Zack's Dutton Montana farm rock the dress portraits were the absolute epitome of aforementioned fun, and I'm pretty certain I did not stop smiling for one second of our time as we made these images together. We met up again on their farm the day after their wedding, and just ...
Joanna + Taylor :: Winter Wedding at the Jack Saloon in Lolo Montana
I wasn't quite sure we were going to get much snow this winter since things felt a little dry at the end of January. But then February rolled around and we were finally treated to a downright winter wonderland. Even better was that just days before Joanna and Taylor's winter wedding at the Jack Saloon in Lolo Montana we had some storms pass through and leave us with even more snow and loads of natural, beautiful backdrops for Joanna and Taylor's special day. Energy and excitement permeated the air as Joanna and Taylor and their family and friends got ready at the Lolo Hot Springs Lodge. Right before seeing Taylor for the first time during ...
Christine, Anders, Misha + Sam :: Missoula Montana Fall Family Photos with Dogs
I always have the best time when photographing Christine and Anders (see proof from their engagement session and wedding), and this time was no different, except for one thing. We got to make their Missoula Montana fall family photos with dogs! Misha, their golden retriever who's about a year and a half, and Sam, their 12-week-old Australian Shepherd were as cute as cute can be, and the absolute sweetest pups you can imagine. This was Sam's first time really exploring beyond his backyard because he'd just gotten his shots. He was a little apprehensive at first since leashes are very big, scary snakes, black cameras are very frightening ...
Breanna + Branden :: Corvallis Montana Bitterroot Barn Wedding
I've been SO excited to photograph Breanna and Branden's Corvallis Montana Bitterroot Barn wedding ever since we first started talking about their wedding day. Especially so, after having the pleasure of capturing their engagement photos for them. Breanna and Branden are the sweetest people, so I knew their wedding would be filled with joy, love and laughter, and lots of personal touches - and oh, was it ever! It was a damp, October day, the trees had just begun to turn golden, and the deep blue backdrop of the Bitterroots contrasted perfectly with the brilliant yellows and oranges in the valley, all wrapped in low-hanging, misty clouds. ...
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, ...
Becka + Stephan + Friends :: Missoula Montana Summertime Rock the Dress Photos
Every time I get to work with Becka and Stephan (I've done their family photos and their wedding!), it's a total blast, so it was no surprise at all to me that we had such a fun time during their Missoula Montana summertime rock the dress photos. AND they brought two of their good friends, Jes and Kara, and their pup, Daisy, too. It was a *much* warmer day than their snowy wedding day back in November, and Becka joked that this time around she didn't have to wear leggings under her dress! And what a gorgeous day it was! We couldn't have been treated to more beautiful light or scenery for their session. And everybody was full of laughs and ...
