I have so many pictures I can’t wait to post from their wedding, but we will all have to wait just a bit longer…  Until then, please enjoy just these few, and feel free to leave Carrie and Ryan some love in the comments box, or use that Facebook like button if you want!

Thanks!

Chris

As mentioned in their sneak peek, they had their dog Luna along for the ride…  She makes a guest appearance in this set as well.

We had such a fun time hanging out at some of my favorite locations around town.  The light was perfect, the couple was perfect, what more could you want?

I hope you enjoy the images here.  Leave them some love in the comments if you want!  You can see the full gallery here.

Thanks!

I had the wonderful opportunity to be Brad and Mandy’s wedding photographer for their beautiful event at the Kleffner Ranch.  It was a beautiful, if a bit windy, day… But that didn’t stop us!

So, here is just a sneak peek…  I know, we’ve had a lot of those, but I will have some full weddings to post very soon!  I just can’t help it – I have to show at least a couple!  Here are a few that jumped out at me while I was going through them tonight…

Hope you enjoy them – leave them some love in the comment box!

Kaitlin and Garrett came down on Saturday from Great Falls to shoot their engagement session here.  They are getting married in September at The Woodlands down in Bozeman (and I can’t wait!).  We wandered all around downtown Helena, as we as to a couple of my favorite little outdoors places…

They also brought their trusty pooch, Luna, whom you will see featured at the end. 

Just a couple ones that jumped out at me while I was editing through them – there will be lots more when to post when I get them finished!  Let Kaitlin and Garret know how awesome they look and leave them some comment lovin’…

And we can’t forget about Luna…!

The rain threatened all day off and on, but other than a little wind it was actually a nice day.  Made for some nice clouds in a few images!

Overall it was a very classy wedding to say the least.  The speeches at the end of the night were some of the most touching ones I’ve heard in some time…  You guys are truly blessed to have a family that supports you so much!

We had a wonderful experince working with Ashley and Chris and their families – we hope you all enjoy the images as much as we enjoyed making them!

Please feel free to leave some feedback in the comments area…  Thanks so much for looking!

There will be more to come soon, but for now, just a couple to whet your appetite!

We had the day all setup – locations picked, sets planned, the works.  Then what happens?  It rains.  And the wind blows almost 50 mph.  Seriously.  Not so great, especially since it meant it was under 40 degrees with the wind chill.  So, we went to plan B, and made a few phone calls.  Thanks to some very generous people, we had a couple different indoor locations offered to us within just a little while…  After scouting the locations, we decided on a very cool four story brick building that is in the process of being renovated – the historic Montana Distillery building – and we had the whole thing to ourselves!  (Thanks Blair!)

We set up camp on the top floor and got to work.  Several hours – and one patient model – later, we had some great images…  Which are coming, I promise.  We set out to shoot this as more of a fashion shoot – to showcase some gowns and location ideas that you might not get to see in an everyday wedding (at least not here in MT).  I think we accomplished what we wanted, and we had a ton of fun doing it!  Thanks to the whole team for being so flexible and being willing to make it up as we go – it turned out great!

And last, but certainly not least, I want to give credit where credit is due – then on to the images!

We have a couple openings in June still, so we thought we’d give you last minute brides a little something special.  We are going to have a a few options: free upgrades to larger/bigger albums, free framed canvas print, or up to 20% off on a package deal.

So, please pass along the info if you know someone who might be interested.  Again, you have to be getting married in June of this year, so you better hurry, as the remaining dates won’t last long!

Chris

In the meantime, here are just a couple pictures that I wanted to share.  Many thanks to Charlotte for being our model.   She was a trooper, and did a great job!
