MONTANA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - LIVING BIG

Jeff and Mary live life colossal!  They are like action heroes!  They're always skiing, or paddle boarding, or going on a run for like an hour.  For someone who lives as big as this, I really wanted to make a huge photo for them.  So I scouted this location they showed me a few times and begged them to make the 30 minute drive and 30 minute hike up to this pristine little lake for our post wedding shoot.  Mother nature was getting jealous and had step up her game.  She came through colossal for us!  It was awesome!

MONTANA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - LAKE TAHOE SUNSET

Here's a little eye candy from my recent trip to lake Tahoe for Jeff and Mary's Tahoe wedding.  I raced to the beach to catch the end of this sunset.  I had to run a long way in the sand and was completely out of breath when I shot this.  I only managed three shots before the color faded.  It was worth the run but I wish I had been there 30 minutes earlier!  I love photography so much that I can't resist a beautiful sunset, or my dog rolling around in the backyard.  I'm always ready to shoot.

MONTANA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - DANCING IN THE STAIRCASE

Rachel and Ryan took a moment to dance in the staircase by themselves after their wedding ceremony.  Well they felt like they were by themselves, but we were there too, patiently waiting from a distance for the moment to occur.  I love seeing a couple so in love that they can enter their own little world at any time and be complete alone together, even if they're surrounded by people.  I’m glad they took a few moments for themselves because this is one of my favorite photos from their awesome wedding.

MONTANA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - VINTAGE LOVE IN THE VINEYARDS

Lindsey and Justin had a beautiful vineyard wedding in vintage style.  I’m not sure if they planned to have such a vintage look, but Lindsey's classic beauty is a perfect fit for vintage styling.  Justin is a Volkswagen Bug man, and had a classic bug at the wedding as a getaway car.  He also had VW cufflinks!  I had so much fun with these two, despite the insane heat and humidity.

This photo is part of my photojournalism collection to show off some of the wedding photos that I take to tell the story of the day.  This part of the story is running from the ceremony, through the gorgeous vineyard, to Justin’s classic Bug getaway car.

MONTANA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER - FANTASY ARTWORK

Fantasy artwork for a fantasy wedding love story.  Colleen and Jonovan’s wedding was like a beautiful dream.  It was filled with huge floral arrangements and set in an ivy covered and green hedged venue that was perfectly groomed for their day.  I wanted to created a work of art that matched the dream like setting of their fantasy love story.  Aren’t they gorgeous?

MONTANA PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER - OUR HERO

Meet TJ, the animal control officer that helped us find Sala when he was missing for 48 hours.  TJ connected the dots between a phone call reporting a strange dog in our neighbor’s backyard and a missing dog flyer I hand delivered to him at the Nacogdoches Animal Shelter.  After seeing the flyer, TJ tracked down the number of the caller from the previous day, called them back a few times until getting them on the phone, then waited for the caller to return home before calling again to see if the dog was still there.
