There's nothing quite like summertime in Montana — blue skies, wild blooms, golden light, and a little mountain magic woven into it all.
Alena and Mick’s wedding captured that feeling so effortlessly. Inspired by the colors of mountain wildflowers, their day was filled with layers of beauty, joy, and moments that felt both intimate and expansive. They have an amazing presence and chemistry that was so fun to capture.
Counting down the days to more summer celebrations like this!

If there was ever a couple meant to get married in Moab, it's Rachel and Josh!
Their wedding at @red.earth.events was full of laughter, beauty, and intimate moments with people from every phase of their lives.
Afterwards we got to adventure together and explore a secret arch that I found last year.
It's so fun working with adventurous couples because they're down for it all — a little scrambling, a little hiking, a little desert on the dress, and nature's incredible architecture in every direction.

Intentional. Intimate. Wildly them.
Briana and Elijah exchanged vows beneath the sandstone spires outside Cody — just the two of them, their families, and the vast Wyoming landscape.
Winter even joined us with a swirl of snowflakes, adding its magic to the moment 🤍
Briana reimagined her grandmother’s wedding dress into her own, and they wove in their Scottish heritage by wearing the family raglan.
Here's proof that all you need is each other and a place that makes you feel alive to create an amazing elopement day!
Obsessed is an understatement — Paradise Valley truly lives up to its name ✨
Epic views, golden light, wind-swept hair, undeniable chemistry… Mo & Matt’s engagement session had it all. Capturing their love in a place that holds so much meaning in their lives made it even more special.
Is it too soon to be dreaming of wildflower fields and endless summer days in the mountains?
One of our favorites from this past summer. Dreamy, adventurous, intimate - and you can't beat these views of Lone Peak and the surrounding range.
This snowy weather has us dreaming of cozy fall days and golden leaves 🍂
Brianna & Chance’s engagement session was filled with so much love and laughter, and we can’t wait for their wedding this summer!

Best friends, glam squad, the ones who have been there through every season.
Marriage is incredibly special, but life takes a village, and it's wonderful to know you have besties like these by your side ❤️
Vows by the river. Laughter in golden meadows. And sunset over Yellowstone Lake at the end of it all. If a perfect fall day exists, this was it!
Jocelyn and Bryan chose to skip the pressure and expectations of a big wedding - and traded it for an experience in their favorite place, Yellowstone National Park.
They wanted to celebrate with the beauty of nature, slow moments, and time just the two of them listening to the elk bugle. And it was unforgettable!
If this kind of day speaks to your heart, let's dream up something beautiful together ✨

There's something so special about an intimate wedding.
"Intimate" doesn't have to mean small - it's about the intention behind the day. It's choosing presence over perfection, and quality time over timelines. It's creating space for genuine connection, quiet moments, and laughter that feels unposed. It's about letting the day breathe so you can soak it all in!
Isabel & Scott's celebration at @rockcreekmontana was exactly that - relaxed, heartfelt, and filled with the kind of joy that lingers long after the wedding day đź’›

Jaycee and Ian came all the way from Illinois to get married at his parents' property in Montana - and the views did not disappoint! We love when couples take us to their favorite spot and this Yellowstone River overlook was truly something special. Cheers to Mr & Mrs Groves! 🥂

When the bride is a vision of beauty and grace ✨
Alena and Mick's celebration was stunning. Their style was bright and colorful yet refined and timeless. The mountains are a special place for both of them, and getting married with this view was a dream come true!
One of my favorite things about weddings is getting to meld the artistic and journalistic sides of photography. To create beautiful portraits and also capture all the candid moments unfolding. Every moment in this day celebrating Mr & Mrs Parks was incredible and such a joy to capture!
