We photographed Natasha and Brian’s engagement session on one of the most beautiful spring mornings in Whitefish, MT.  We had their shoot scheduled for the evening before, but had to cancel due to non-stop rain.  We were so pumped when we woke up the next day and saw that the rain had stopped, the skies had cleared, and it was a glorious Montana spring morning!  As you can see, these two are so adorable… and fun. We probably laughed 75% of the time while photographing their engagement pictures.  These two were the best to photograph.  We love these pictures because their personality comes through them all :-)

They are from Colorado Springs, but currently live in Great Falls while Brian is on military duty (we thank you for your service Brian).  While they have been up north, they have explored much of Montana and Canada. Since the Montana towns are so far apart they frequent their book on tape collection to pass the time… it was fun to hear of their adventures so far!  Just a few months ago, Brian took Natasha to the beautiful Lodge at Whitefish Lake and proposed to her!  It was so neat to be able to photograph them in the town where “he put a ring on it.”  Thanks again you two- enjoy your images and come back to Whitefish soon!

We are so excited here at Brooke Peterson Photography to be MONTANA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS! This summer we will be traveling the great state of Montana as we capture some beautiful Montana brides on their big wedding day.  You can call us Billings Wedding Photographers, Red Lodge Wedding Photographers, Bozeman Wedding Photographers, Big Sky Wedding Photographers, Bigfork Wedding Photographers, Whitefish Wedding Photographers, and Coeur d’Alene Wedding Photographers to name a few.

We always consider it a great privilege and honor to be chosen to photograph real Montana weddings.  It makes us think back to our own wedding in Big Sky, MT where we reunited with friends, visited with family from far off places, and celebrated the beautiful union of marriage under the Big Sky of Montana.  Now we are looking forward to another lovely season being Montana Wedding Photographers.   We are blessed to photograph so many amazing brides and grooms, families, and friends from all over the world as they gather in celebration of the people they love!

Last summer was filled with so many unforgettable weddings.  We wanted to share a few fun Montana Wedding Pictures and Colorado Wedding Pictures from our 2013 Rocky Mountain weddings.  Our wedding season had some great moments, starting with Jonna and Ben’s wedding in Helena, MT.  Their love for each other was seriously contagious.  It was also fun to learn that Ben’s family has a tradition of escorting the bride off in a wheelbarrow to finish the day.  Another great memory was how we met Jessica and Robert.  It started at Starbucks as we overheard them talking about wedding photography.  Long story short we photographed their incredible Colorado wedding in the Rocky Mountains outside Golden, CO.  Now we get to call them great friends!  Our wedding season finished up perfectly as we photographed a great winter Montana wedding in Whitefish, MT.  Lindley and Jared’s wedding was a true celebration of love, fun, family, and friends.  It felt like we were all inside a snow globe.  We had so much fun in Whitefish at their wedding that we decided to open up another Brooke Peterson Photography location there.

Cheers to a great 2014 Montana wedding photography season.  We can’t wait!

Photographing a Whitefish Montana winter wonderland wedding was a true honor for Brooke Peterson Photography.  Meet Lindley and Jared.  These two are a God following, snowboard loving, mountain bike racing, fun loving couple.  Their ceremony was at the cutest little church (First Presbyterian) in downtown Whitefish, MT.  The day started off just down the road at Grouse Mountain Lodge where Lindley was getting ready with her beautiful bridesmaids.  It wasn’t long before I was tearing up as Lindley was about to see Jared for the first time (her “first look”).  It was such a magical moment to watch – we always feel so blessed when we get to watch these special times. ;)  Shortly after that we heard one of our favorite wedding day quotes of all time from Lindley, “AHH – I LOVE getting married… I wish I could get married everyday!  Of course to you Jared.”  So much fun!

After photographing their big moment together we snuck off for a quick downtown Whitefish picture session. They both looked dazzling as they prepared to walk down the aisle.  Before they exchanged vows we stopped by the Red Caboose for a delicious hot chocolate and a couple more pics near City Beach on Whitefish Lake.  It truly was a perfect wedding with an incredible setting.  It felt as if we were inside a snow globe!

The best part for us is that we get to call these two our friends.  Thank you so much Lindley and Jared for having us be a part of your wedding day!

Last month we had the honor to photograph a beautiful couple in Billings, MT.  After photographing their engagement session in July we knew we would have a blast capturing the wedding day.  Dawn and Dan are truly some of the nicest people we have ever met.  Throughout the wedding day you could see the love friends and family had for these two.  The wedding was set at the Billings Depot – one of our favorite venues to photograph in Billings.  Thank you two for having us be a part of your special day. :)
