I was so excited to photograph Jackson and Logan’s engagement pictures in Missoula Montana because I knew we’d have such a great time making images together. I actually initially “virtually met” Jackson through Instagram where we connected via my little bird, Flash, who has a tendency to be featured in some of my posts on the platform. (At one time Jackson had a bird as well.) So when Jackson asked me if I’d be interested in talking more with him and Logan about photographing their wedding, I was so excited to get to meet them in person! (Turns out they’d been guests at Christine and Pete’s wedding that I photographed in 2014.) As I suspected, Jackson and Logan are just so sweet and so in love, and it’s no surprise that it was such a blast to photograph their engagement session. (There was lots and lots of laughter involved!) I also adored that they brought their dog, Dexter, with them to their session, too. (He’s a total sweetheart!)

We had such a nice time wandering through the grassy fields, chatting, and watching Dexter have a blast (and I loved seeing Jackson and Logan crack up at his antics, too).

If this fun session was a precursor to their wedding day (which I’m sure it was), then I am just beyond excited to photograph their nuptials in 2017.

Jackson and Logan! What an awesome session with you two (and Dexter!) – it’s such a treat to see how much you two love one another and I cannot wait for June to roll around! Your wedding day is going to be fantastic and I can’t wait to document such a special day in your lives for you! Here’s to you two!

Autumn weddings are my absolute favorite, and Hannah and Laura’s Missoula Montana Ranch Club Wedding was no exception to this. The sun was shining, the blue sky was filled with beautiful, textural clouds, and these ladies were bursting with happiness and beyond excited to get married (their megawatt smiles *might* have given them away a little). That’s pure perfection in my book.

Before their ceremony they had a super sweet first look – (see above comment about megawatt smiles). We had a great time making some portraits, and then it was time to hide them both away for their big reveal.

Family and friends smiled and teared up as Hannah and Laura walked down the aisle. Their ceremony was framed by a gorgeous mountain backdrop, punctuated with lots of laughter, and topped off with exceptionally heartfelt vows. Everyone cheered as Hannah and Laura sealed their vows with a kiss for the first time as wife and wife.

This happy energy continued throughout their reception as friends and family mingled, laughed and kicked up their heels as the dance music started. Soon the bright sun of the day tapered off into a stunning sunset, and Hannah, Laura and I went running pel-mel to catch the last rays of the day, and oh what beautiful light it was!

We rejoined everyone so Hannah and Laura could toss their bouquets simultaneously (both caught by their sisters!), and the dancing and fun continued inside as the sky turned a deep blue, a little half moon glinting in the night.

Hannah and Laura – what an absolutely beautiful, beyond happy, wonderful day for you two! It was such an honor to document your wedding and your love for one another, and I swear, I’m STILL smiling my face off just thinking about it. I am so happy for you both, and I wish you a lifetime of happiness, which I know you’ll accomplish easily. Cheers to you two!
