An Intimate wedding at Chico Hot Springs Resort
Mekenzie and Tyler married in the ‘Field of Dreams’ overlooking Paradise Valley on the beautiful Chico Hot Springs property. They were joined by their family and dear friends for this gorgeous wedding day. At the end of the evening we hustled to a high hillside to capture the show of light and color of Paradise Valley, that is like none other! Congratulations to Mekenzie and Tyler.
I could say a lot about this wedding… About the below freezing temperature… About the gorgeous, authentic couple… About the warm and friendly folks we met and photographed at the reception… About my freezing hands as we roamed about on the hillside below the mountain peaks and above the Paradise Valley for nearly two hours in advance of the wedding. However, I’ll keep it simple.
Thanks to Mariah and Justin for seeking me out and choosing me for their wedding photography. And to my second shooter, Rachel Mascari for being willing to ‘layer up’ and take on the challenge without a second thought! And to all the folks at Chico Hot Springs that make every wedding very personal and extremely fine.

In planning this day with my clients, we knew that the weather in Paradise Valley is always up for grabs. And as fate would have it… and a little good luck, we chose a day that was ‘true to form’! It was blustery, fresh, vital and immeasurably beautiful! It was so inviting that we spent some extra time together and sought out a number of different locations.
We started at the top of Chico Hot Springs property and moved north up the Paradise valley and took a hike down to the Yellowstone river. We ended our search for images at a friend’s ranch and these two got to sit on a very special bench above the river. Thanks… friends, you know who you are!
What a fabulous day at Chico Hot Springs Resort! Miranda and Richy tied the knot in the presence of family and friends. The weather was ‘Paradise Valley perfect’ and everyone enjoyed the sun, the warmth and yes… the breeze (aka ‘the wind’)! Here is a glimpse of this beautiful wedding day in Paradise.
Thanks to my friend and second shooter, Rachel Mascari for her fine work and the way she always keeps things fun, interesting and ‘melodic’!
