After such an amazing/fun/unique engagement session with Shannon and Jud this past autumn, I knew their Stone Tower Estate wedding in Stevensville Montana would be equally as wonderful. And, no surprise, they didn’t disappoint in the least.

Shannon and Jud started off their day with a really fun first look (Jud’s expression is just SO great!), and then we had fun making portraits with the two of them and their bridal party. And by fun, I mean LOTS of fun. Shannon, Jud and their friends and family are a great group and they definitely had themselves a good time as we made images together. (I’d also like to “shout out” the old chairs from the Wilma theater that Shannon and Jud brought along – such a cool, essentially-Missoula idea!)

As Shannon and Jud hid away for a bit before their wedding ceremony start, friends and family had a great time catching up and enjoying appetizers and drinks in the garden area of the estate. Kids ran and played (and munched on tasty garden treats they came across), bluebirds flitted, and everyone was full of smiles as they waited eagerly for the ceremony to start.

Soon it was time to go, and the wedding party made their way down a lushly green aisle with misty mountains as a backdrop. Shannon and Jud grinned at each other throughout their ceremony, and when it came time to seal it all with a kiss, they high-fived first, much to the enjoyment of everyone gathered to witness their nuptials.

Guests were soon treated to a tasty dinner, scrumptious desserts and some truly fantastic toasts. Before long, it was time to make some room in the barn to dance and folks began to cut a rug and groove to the music while a beautiful sunset made way for a (nearly) strawberry moon.

Shannon and Jud – oh my. It is an understatement to say just how much of a pleasure it’s been getting to photograph such happy and exciting milestones in your lives. I am so thrilled for you two, and I know that you’re going to have a life full of adventure and laughter together. Congrats, congrats, congrats again to you both!

We all had our eyes on the sky as Michelle and Dave’s Stevensville, Montana wedding at the Stone Tower Estates got underway. Rain clouds zipped through, but then skirted around us as clouds gave way to brilliant sunshine highlighting the beauty of the Bitteroot Mountains, and the loveliness of Michelle and Dave’s day.

Everyone was in high spirits as they readied themselves to walk down the aisle, and smiles were abundant as the wedding party made their way down the aisle strewn with rose petals. Michelle was radiant in her dress as well as her mother’s veil, causing Dave to wipe away a tear or two as he looked at his beautiful bride.

Their friends and family cheered as they kissed for the first time as husband and wife, and as Michelle and Dave walked down the aisle again together, they beamed and continued out into a field beyond the ceremony site to read personal, private vows to one another.

Soon they rejoined their friends and family, and had a great time mingling, munching on a tasty dinner, enjoying their cake, and kicking up their heels as the sun sank behind the mountaintops.

Michelle and Dave – thank you again for inviting me to capture such a special time in your lives! It was such a delight to work with you and all your family and friends, and even more fun to see just how much you two are in love with one another. Here’s to a long, happy life together, filled with joy and laughter!
