I'm always so tickled when I get to work with past couples of mine - and that was absolutely the case for Sarah and Matt's Missoula autumn anniversary photos with their sweet pup, Oliver.

It seriously couldn't have been a more idyllic setting - the ranch land is rugged and beautiful, and full of areas ...
