RESOURCES

The phrase “beauty… as it occurs naturally” has come to define my view as a professional photographer and as a human being. I see my work as one that looks for and captures the beautiful moments that arise in every aspect of life. The celebration of the union of two people in marriage is full of this naturally occurring imagery.

PHOTOS

Choose the photographers to interview by the photos they produce. You will find a wide range of descriptive terms attached to today’s wedding photography. For example: documentary, traditional, photojournalistic, contemporary are all terms used to describe style and approach.

PERSONALITY

We are all unique individuals and as humans we get along better with certain types of people. When you interview photographers ask yourself a few basic questions about your experience. Most importantly: Was I comfortable in the presence of this person?

EXPERIENCE

To be an excellent wedding photographer takes a tremendous amount of technical and personal skills . Skills that are learned from both formal education and real time experience. Keep in mind that not all wedding photographers do this professionally.  Buyer beware.

PHOTOGRAPHY

I am is a self confessed ‘moment junkie’ – a lover of the naturally occurring moments of life, both beautiful and poignant. My work is defined by a unique mix of photojournalism and scenic portraiture.
I have 25 years of diverse professional photographic experience which brings substantial depth and insight to my images.

ALBUM DESIGN

I personally design my clients albums. I don’t send my images off into the hands of an album builder. This allows me to share the amazing moments that I witnessed and the images I captured on your wedding day. These are authentic albums… ‘one offs’ if you will, designed around the events of your wedding day. It is your personal story, the story of your life in the making.

ALBUM SHOWCASE

I love finding remarkable images and creating remarkable books! For years I photographed weddings and presented hundreds of small proof prints that in most cases ended up in a box on the shelf. Now, I highly encourage couples to give serious consideration to an album that begs to be left on the coffee table and enjoyed again and again.

WEDDING VENUES

There is no place that compares to the beauty of our mountainous environment here in Montana. The wide expanses of our valleys at nearly a mile above sea level provide incredibly wide panoramas as they juxtapose the rugged beauty of our mountains. These views provide a breathtaking backdrop for any wedding regardless of size and scope.

WEDDING PLANNING

Creating, planning and producing your Montana wedding day is a formidable task. It takes skill, artistry and experience to supply these needs. Over the years I have met and associated with professionals in these areas that are exceptional. The services they offer are amongst the best for the Montana bride.
