From the moment I talked to Kristeen on the phone (and we exclaimed over the fact that we're both "K" Kristines - woot woot! we're rare, I tell you!), I knew we'd just have a blast working together! So, when Kristeen called to tell me she and Colt were in Missoula, visiting from their home base in Hawaii, and that they had decided they wanted to take advantage of the snow we had here to do some fun portraits, I was completely game. We all carpooled together up to Sky Ridge Ranch (which is where they'll be getting married this summer - such a beautiful venue!), and decided to tromp around in the snow and make the most of the white-capped ...
Wintertime Rambles – {Megan and Jeremy’s Missoula “Engagement” + Family Session}
A few days after Christmas I had the pleasure of getting together with Megan and Jeremy and their family since they were all together in Missoula for the holidays. It was such a treat to see everyone again, and this time around I even got to meet Megan and Jeremy's dog, Grafton (who is the cutest, fuzziest dude ever!). The backstory about their "engagement" session is that I photographed Megan and Jeremy's wedding in 2012 (so pretty!), but we had to delay their engagement session until a later date since they live more than a hop and a skip away from Missoula. So, a little over a year later we had a great time making photos of these two - ...
Perfect Autumn Days – {Raina and Danny’s Missoula Engagement Session}
This year Missoula has experienced an exceptionally beautiful autumn - and luckily Raina, Danny and I got to take advantage of all the beautiful colors before the wind swept the leaves off the trees a few days later. We walked around downtown, laughing and chatting, and laughing some more. Giggling, they told me the story of how they met when Raina swiped one of Danny's chicken strips - the rest is history. :) These two are just so utterly in love, and I can tell we're going to have an absolute blast at their wedding next year. Here's to you two, Raina and Danny! And many, many chicken strips to share. ;) On the ...
Colorful Leaves and Starry Montana Skies – {Annie and Josh’s Darby, Montana Engagement Session}
When Annie and I first started talking about me being the photographer for her and Josh's wedding, it was SO great to find out that she's from Wisconsin - because, though I was born in Montana and have spent nearly half my life here, I grew up in Wisconsin and have a special fondness for it in my heart. And fellow Wisconsin people are just kind of awesome. Doncha know. (Sorry - couldn't resist.) I met up with her and Josh at the bed and breakfast they are caretakers of in Darby (such a sweet place!), and Montana was pulling out all the stops for us - blue skies, colorful autumn leaves, golden light....I could go on and on. After ...
An October Kind of Love – {Jennifer and Brian’s Spokane Wedding at the Roberts Mansion}
There is something decidedly romantic about an autumn wedding - especially when it takes place at a gorgeous mansion surrounded by colorful foliage, and really celebrates an intimate ceremony. When I met up with Jennifer and Brian at the Roberts Mansion in Spokane, Washington, sun streamed in through the stained glass windows as Jennifer readied herself to see her groom. And as she stepped out of the mansion doors and he saw her for the first time, his eyes lit up and a big smile spread across his face. Their ceremony was thoughtful, simple and beautiful. The two held each other's hands and looked into one another's eyes as they ...
Majestic Maples and Sweet Smiles – {Betsy and Cameron’s Missoula Engagement Session}
As October is wont to do sometimes, the skies threatened rain on Betsy and Cameron's engagement session, but we decided to brave it anyway, and lucky us - the rain stayed away and treated us to some exceptionally beautiful light - only challenged, however, by the absolute happiness radiating from Betsy and Cameron as they looked at one another. Seriously - these two love each other. L. O. V. E. Love. We had so much fun as we trekked about in the woods, laughing our heads off the entire time, and exclaiming at how we are so lucky to live in such a naturally gorgeous place. And I feel pretty darn lucky I get to work with couples as ...
An Autumn Love in Majestic Montana – {Lindsay and Paul’s Double Arrow Lodge Wedding}
What is it about autumn that is just so magical? The beautiful colors? The exceptionally golden light as the day winds down? The crisp, cool air? I'm not exactly sure what the answer may be, but I can tell you that Lindsay and Paul's wedding day was magical, too. (Remember their beautiful autumn engagement session?) Laughter and jokes bounced around as Lindsay and Paul got ready with their friends. Soon, it was time to walk down the aisle, and the setting couldn't have been more brilliant. The sun was shining, the mountains were dusted with a fresh layer of snow, and everyone looked amazing in their wedding finery. Lindsay and Paul's two ...
These are a few of their Favorite Things – {Dusty and Tom’s Missoula Rock the Dress Session}
Dusty and Tom are so fab - first, remember their gorgeous Glacier wedding last July? Secondly, when Dusty told me what she wanted to do for her rock the dress session, I was loving how her goal was to incorporate some of their favorite things - golfing, their love of Missoula, their passion for the Griz and, the cherry on top - quintessential Missoula summer awesomeness: floating the river with beers in hand. We started out golfing a few holes and took advantage of some gorgeous Missoula vistas as well. Talk about a perfect day for all of what we had planned! After hitting the course, our next stop was the "M" trail at the university, and ...
Rocking the Dress, Montana-Style :: Lauren and Thad’s Day After Rock the Dress Session at Lake Koocanusa
Reason number 5 million and one why I think Lauren and Thad are the bee's knees: they are avid rock climbers AND they wanted me to document, quite literally, a rock the dress session for them the day after their wedding. When they first told me this, in my head I was all giddy and yelping and saying (in my head, mind you), "Can I get a heck YEAH!?!!!" (Though now that I think about it, maybe that wasn't all in my head.) Because 1. How completely, totally awesome. And 2. I'm a rock climber as well. Albeit a bit rusty after not having had a partner for a couple years, but I GET rock climbing. I get it. I love it. I understand it. I ...
Tying the Knot in Montana – {Lauren and Thad’s Bull Lake Wedding}
Lauren and Thad - I just loved these two from the moment I met them. Not only are they awesome people, but they love to rock climb AND they were planning their wedding in Troy, Montana - just a hop and a skip from Libby, where I was born - one of Montana's little gems, tucked away in the northwestern corner of the state. Did I mention that they also told me they wanted to do a truly unique "rock the dress" session too? (You can see those photos here!) So it's no surprise that their wedding day was just downright awesome. The day was sunny and brilliant, and Bull Lake sparkled in the background. Lauren and her friends readied themselves ...
