Upon first chatting with Kristina and Ben about their upcoming Darby Montana elopement at the Triple Creek Ranch, I knew that we'd have such a fabulous time making images for the two of them. They love the outdoors, are beyond sweet, and were really excited about visiting Montana for the first time. It also didn't hurt that Kristina's a fellow redhead, and we even share the same initials! I tell you, Meant. To. Be! (And as Kristina would say, "Kismet!") The day of their elopement arrived, and I think we were all a little nervous about how the weather would behave (or misbehave). It had been raining for days and days (which, in Montana, you ...

The ladies laughed as Stephanie steadied herself as her maids laced up her dress, and the guys guffawed at their slick-soled shoes, and may have attempted some Michael ...
Love in the Sunshine :: {Micah and Dave’s Helena Lakeside Ranch Wedding}
If I had to pick just one word to describe Micah and Dave's wedding at the Lakeside Ranch in Helena it would be : HAPPY. That was the overwhelmingly wonderful feeling I had their entire wedding day. Everyone was simply happy, smiling and thoroughly enjoying themselves. From joking around and laughing while getting ready, to their sweet smiles during their wedding vows, to the energetic dancing and everything in between...light and love and pure happiness just radiated. Guests had a great time mingling with one another, playing lawn games, and popping into the "polaroid" booth to make faces for friends. Dave and Micah stole kisses here and ...
