Kendra and Nick were married at the end of June at the Rainbow Ranch up in Big Sky. The weather can be a bit unpredictable that time of year, but to tell you the truth, it is my favorite time to shoot. The colors, spring flowers, sun and yes, rain. Rain makes it pretty! Kendra and Nick's day, however was beautiful and without rain. A perfect summer day, complete with blue sky, a rushing river, trout pond and gorgeous Rainbow Ranch Lodge as the backdrop. Miss Leslie Lukas did a stunning job on the coordination and flowers.

Kendra and Nick's friends and family gathered from around the country to witness and celebrate their union. What a perfect wedding. I always feel fortunate to get to be a part of such meaningful moments in peoples lives. Thank you Kendra and Nick!

Ahhh, the Gallatin Valley and summer in Montana, you just can't beat it. My absolute favorite time to photograph engagement sessions is the last hour and a half of sunlight. It's so magical! But, I must say, Laura and Grant are pretty magical clients too! What a handsome couple! I did however, officially blog way too many photos... there were just too many good ones! And not only did I fall in love with my clients, I fell in love with their dog, Trigger (shhh don't tell Lucca dog). He was incredibly well behaved so funny and rambunctious and a ham for the camera.

Laura and Grant are getting married this Friday! Congratulations you two! Can't wait for the wedding.0001bozemanportrait.jpg 0002bozemanportrait.jpg 0003bozemanportrait.jpg 0004bozemanportrait.jpg 0005bozemanportrait.jpg 0006bozemanportrait.jpg 0007bozemanportrait.jpg 0008bozemanportrait.jpg 0009bozemanportrait.jpg 0010bozemanportrait.jpg 0011bozemanportrait.jpg 0012bozemanportrait.jpg 0013bozemanportrait.jpg

Can you say GORGEOUS! Wow! So Martha and Blake made the trip over to Bozeman last week for their engagement session and of course, it was a beautiful, but rainy June day. It was the kind where the sun's in, then out, then in, then kaboom, a thunder storm. When we headed out for the session it started drizzling but it didn't stop us. We headed toward the sunshine, Southeast of Bozeman. It made for some dramatic skies and clean, crisp air. We finished up the session at Plonk where we had drinks and an appetizer. I had so much fun with them that I practically crashed their date night (sorry guys!). Martha and Blake, it was such a pleasure. I can't wait for the wedding later this July!  Cheers!

These to fantastic folks got married at Chico last month. They scored a beautiful spring day. Not too hot, not too cold... just right. Teresa wore a Vera Wang gown and lovely Amber of Bloom did the flowers. There was so much joy, love and laughter at this wedding. I'm still giggling about it!

Teresa and Aaron, congratulations! I wish you all the love, adventure and joy in your lives together. 100montana-wedding.jpg 101montana-wedding.jpg 102montana-wedding.jpg 103montana-wedding.jpg 105montana-wedding.jpg 106montana-wedding.jpg 107montana-wedding.jpg 108montana-wedding.jpg 109montana-wedding.jpg 110montana-wedding.jpg 111montana-wedding.jpg 112montana-wedding.jpg 113montana-wedding.jpg

LOVE IT! My favorite is the one of them kissing at the end of the ceremony, and the flower girl and ring bearer staring open mouthed! TOO CUTE!

Ahhh, Montana in the spring! It is always so refreshing to see the green return. But with the green comes crazy spring weather, rain, hail, snow, sleet, wind, sunshine, rainbows then it happens all over again in a matter of hours.

Thankfully, the weather was pretty darn agreeable for Teresa and Aaron's engagement session a couple of weeks ago. The are the awesomous (yep, I made that word up) couple ever (I find myself feeling this way about all my wedding clients)! It is always fun to get to know the couples before the wedding day so we all can let our guard down a bit. These two are a blast. The session included lots of silliness, laughing and even a vacuum-toy gun fight!

Their wedding followed a couple of days after the engagement session. I'll have photos of the wedding soon. Stay posted!
