Christina and Alex headed to Montana from Dallas, Texas to get married at Alex’s family residence in Big Sky.  Alex has family roots in Montana so over the years they would come up for visits and ski trips- ultimately convincing them that they wanted to get married in the mountains! Since it was a Montana destination wedding, we only got to meet them once prior to their wedding day. After meeting them I knew it was going to be a day to look forward to! Christina’s fun, modern and rustic style radiated through the whole day and everything was beautifully done. We wouldn’t have wanted to be anywhere else on this Labor Day Weekend- we love being Big Sky Wedding Photographers! Thanks Mr. & Mrs. Kick (coolest last name ever, by the way). We loved meeting you and getting to know you. Enjoy your images and come back to Montana soon!

Roy and I had the opportunity to head back to our old stomping grounds for a beautiful winter wedding in Montana last month.  The town of Whitefish is nothing short of a dream in the winter. I always describe it as the town that lives inside of a snow globe.  It’s so quaint, cute and always has a thick blanket of snow.

We met Alison and Scott out in Seattle last summer for their engagement session. Click here to check that out!  It was exciting to photograph them in a snowy mountain environment after we had captured them on the hot city streets of Seattle!  They were married at the Grouse Mountain Lodge surrounded by family and close friends who traveled from all over.  Alison, with the help of Courtney from 114-West, had every single little detail planned out which allowed the day to take its course so smoothly!  Alison and Scott decided to do a first look prior to walking down the aisle which allowed us to get in lots of portraits before the sun went down (at like 4:45pm in the winter!).  Doing a first look also allowed us the time to drive over to the picturesque Whitefish Lake. Alison looked so graceful as she approached her groom standing on the “beach.” :)

Thanks Alison, Scott, their bridal party & family for braving the snowy conditions in order to capture all the beauty that NW Montana offers in the winter!

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 love to travel and love to photograph couples in LOVE.  When Alison and Scott wanted me to come to Seattle for their engagement session I was thrilled!  They are getting married next January in Whitefish, Montana (one of our favorite places to shoot winter weddings) and I was so grateful when they decided to have me out to Seattle to meet them and bop around the city for some photos.  We walked everywhere and had such a great evening.  Now that 90% of our weddings are in the great sate of Montana it is nice to switch it up completely and photograph a couple on the city streets.  Being Montana wedding photographers, the “city streets” definitely differ from here to there!  Their enthusiasm and love for Seattle was so fun to capture.  Thanks again Alison and Scott for showing me around your city! We will be looking forward to your winter wedding in Whitefish.

Last month we photographed a lovely wedding in one of our favorite little towns- Golden, Colorado.  It was a morning wedding, which was refreshing, bright and delicious (breakfast food, nom nom).  Molly and Zach were married in a beautiful Episcopal church downtown and then continued on to Mount Vernon Country Club for some celebration!  I think these two did such a good job making it unique to them.  They wrote and published a newspaper titled “Beautiful People Monthly- Now With Lower Standards” that was used as part of the centerpieces.  It was seriously hilarious.  It had articles written by them, their parents, and siblings. The front page article was “Marriage of the Century: Southern Goober Marries Local Dime.”  It’s obvious that Zach thought he was marrying up. :) A local caricature artist was at the reception too!  What a great way for guests to be entertained and then be able to bring home a keepsake wedding favor!

We photographed Molly and Zach’s engagement session last year in Golden and were so happy to return for their wedding.  It was so special for us to see them get hitched as well as reunite with the rest of our church small group.  You will notice us in the last photo! :) We were so joyous to be Bozeman Wedding Photographers in Colorado for the weekend. Thank you for having us capture one of the biggest days of your life M & Z!

Two more words that don’t need explanation: Molly’s hair!!!
