Wyoming weddings

Morning light at Yellowstone falls proposal

Ryan contacted me in the early months of this year with his plan to make the long trip to Yellowstone National Park and propose marriage to Payton, the love of his life. When planning a day in Yellowstone in the first week of October, you never know what sort of weather you may get. At about 8000 feet above sea level, you may have 65 and sunny or, 15 degrees and snow. It’s a roll of the dice. As this date was coming up on the calendar I watched as the temperatures were dropping and precipitation was on it’s way sooner rather than later. Fortunately, the weather held!

I headed out before sunrise to get to our meeting place that looks directly into the face of Yellowstone falls. Everything went like clock work, the surprise was a great success and then we took a drive to several other of my favorite locations for photos.

Congratulation to this wonderful couple!

Enjoy the view!

Happy, happy, happy!

Big Horn Wyoming – Ooh La La!

This is the second wedding in the last 12 months that I have been invited to photograph in my neighboring state of Wyoming and once again… I loved every minute of it! Warm weather, big hearts, mountainous vistas and the great big Wyoming sky. This place calls me back, time and again. This wedding was originally planned for Yellowstone Park, however the plan didn’t prove out in the face of post covid complications. So, off they went to Wyoming and it was a fabulous day of FAMILY, FRIENDS and LOVE!

Congratulations to my new friends Michelle and Lance! Enjoy the view!

A huge heart felt THANK YOU goes out to my dear friend Cali Frankovic for finding her way to Wyoming to share in the image making fun!

Wyoming wedding

This wedding took place way above Buffalo, Wyoming in the Big Horn mountains! What was once planned to be a large scale wedding elsewhere was sized down to family and friends close to home for this intimate family affair. With their own rendition of a ‘traditional western’ wedding, Richelle and Duncan exchanged vows on the land where her family has hunted, camped and played for many years.

After the ceremony and a mountain side snack, we had to take cover from a storm that blew in and dumped rain and hail. It was all too amazing… then the sky opened up and gifted them with double rainbow. Remarkable!

After that we hopped into a beautifully renovated 60’s Willys Jeep wagon and down, down, down the Crazy Woman Canyon we went, stopping here and there for pictures in it’s magical surrounds.

See for yourself!
