We were blessed with the most unbelievable April evening in Bozeman for our shoot with Stacey and Taner. All of the surrounding days were pouring buckets, but Friday delivered for us with a cool, sunny evening. Stacey and Taner are getting married this fall (on another gorgeous evening we’re hoping :) ) in Billings, but decided to come up to Bozeman to meet me for their engagement session.  I have to say, these two completely rocked their photoshoot.  It’s definitely not an everyday activity to meet someone in person for the first time and be all natural and comfortable as they proceed to take pictures of you.  I always try to put myself in my clients shoes while I’m photographing them, and I could tell that Stacey was a little nervous (completely normal) but that wore off within 10 camera clicks!  These two were so much fun to hang with for a couple hours- I wouldn’t have wanted my Friday night spent any differently!  Getting to know these two better makes us so excited for their wedding day.

Thanks so much Stacey & Taner.  Enjoy your engagement photos in Bozeman!

We are just about to ring in 2016 (wiggity whaaaaat?!), so let’s take a look back at a handful of our 2015 weddings.  Without a doubt, our hearts are full to the very brim (maybe even spilling over a little bit) with all the memories we have with couples and families who welcomed us so warmly on wedding days.  All the people we get to meet and stories we get to share is why we love what we do.  We consider it a great honor and cherish our memories with you all!

It’s been one year since we’ve settled in Bozeman, Montana and we are confident saying that we are here to stay- and geez, that feels good!  Although we are grateful for living in 5 places in 6 years (yikes!) and for all of our memories in those cities, it feels pretty awesome to call this place home.  As Montana wedding photographers, we ended up in several Montana towns- Bigfork, Billings, Whitefish, Livingston, and Big Sky, amongst others. Good thing we live in such a beautiful state!  It’s not too bad to zig-zag across it during wedding season. :)

We have a great lineup of weddings in 2016 already!  We do still have a few dates available, so be sure to get in contact with us if you are getting married in 2016 and want us to be your Montana wedding photographers! Enjoy this look back at some of our top wedding picks and we will see you in the new year.

We began our busy wedding season with Kassie and Ty and it couldn’t have started on a better note! These two were married last month at Chancey’s in Huntley, Montana.  We met Kassie and her wonderful mom at the Yellowstone Art Museum Bridal Fair two years ago and we hit it off with them right away. Kassie and Ty were married on a very special date, May 24th, 2015, their 8 year anniversary!   We had a little rain to deal with, but it was cooperative enough to have the ceremony outside as well as most of the photos. In fact, the sun started shining right before Kassie walked down the aisle.  So many friends and family were there to support them.  Most of them have been there throughout their entire relationship, which I thought was pretty special!

These two are heading out to St. Louis next month so Ty can attend chiropractic school.  I think it’s so neat when couples start off marriage with a big adventure!  Ty and Kassie, you two are going to do so well out there!  Thank you so much for being so welcoming to Roy and I. We are so grateful you picked us to be your Billings Montana Wedding Photographers.  We can’t wait to see you back in Montana sometime! :)

Wow- are we really just 2 days away from 2015!? Roy and I sure have had a blessed year.  We’ve had so many amazing wedding stories take place right in front of us!  When you are a wedding photographer, you really get to know every couple personally and we are always humbled by all the families that welcome us so warmly on wedding days.  It makes us love what we do and we have very thankful hearts!

Roy and I spent the last year adventuring in one of our favorite little towns in Montana.  Whitefish served us so well- we skied lots, visited Glacier Nat’l Park several times, gallivanted across the state to photograph weddings, met new friends and hung out with old ones.  We have now settled in Bozeman, MT where we are a lot closer to family. We are excited about our central location and being able to serve our brides and grooms across the state better.

We have a great lineup of weddings in 2015 already!  We do still have some dates available, so be sure to get in contact with us if you are getting married in 2015 or 2016 and want us to be your Montana wedding photographer!  Here is a look back on just a few weddings we did in 2014.  We will see you in the new year. :)

Top Montana Wedding Photographers 2014 Year in Review

Cheers to a great 2015 wedding season.  We can’t wait to capture some more Montana wedding moments as Bozeman wedding photographers.  Thanks again to all the brides, grooms, and wonderful families from all over that had us be a part of their special moments.  We consider it a great honor and cherish our memories with you all!

We felt honored to be Red Lodge Montana wedding photographers for Cammie and Braden this summer at Wildflower Weddings.  These two are the best.  You could see it in their eyes as we photographed through the rain and the shine.  Braden truly adores Cammie and Cammie loves her Braden sooooo much!

Braden and Cammie chose to do a first look.  Right before Cammie came out to find her groom the weather became overcast and rainy!  Cammie was 100% up for it anyway and used our trusty clear umbrella for her walk to Braden.  They turned out to be some of our favorite pictures of the season.  Seeing them snuggled together under the umbrella was warming to our hearts and our chilled feet!  We also had a chance to snap a couple shots under the beverage bar building through the rain.  As wedding photographers, we love when weather changes from rain, to shine, to snow (sometimes). :) Well it is Montana and it is so much fun to photograph the constant changes!

Thanks Cammie and Braden for welcoming us with the warmest hearts to your wedding and letting us document your story.  Enjoy!
