It's only appropriate for Amy and Michael to be married in the mountains of their home state of Montana.  The wedding was elegant and small with only family and a few of their best friends.  Michael and Amy exchanged vows in the Seeley Swan Valley nestled between the Mission Mountains and Glacier National Park.  It was almost as lovely as this beautiful couple.

Florist and Bridal Crown:  Habitat Floral Studio in Missoula, Mt

Location:  Holland Lake Lodge

Post Wedding Session:  Glacier National Park

Dress: Designed and made by Amy's mother with 100 year old vintage lace

I love taking the opportunity to shoot with a friend when it presents itself.  Because my husband and I had a baby in May I planned on taking June and July off but when Karlin called and asked if I would be interested in helping her with Sophe and Dusty's wedding I couldn't turn her down.  Karlin Connell is one of my best friends and an amazing photographer.  It's always a pleasure assisting her at weddings and I look forward to assisting again before the summer is over!  

Below are a few favorites from the day!

Amy and Mike were married at the beautiful Eden Gardens State Park.  Amy grew up in Panama City but now lives in Chicago where she met Mike quite a few years ago.  The best way to describe the day is elegant and lovely.  The perfect wedding.

I realize it's been a long time since I've blogged.  I'm smack dab in the middle of the busy season and 11 days ago my husband and I welcomed our first baby into the world! (pictures coming soon!)  Needless to say my blog is suffering as a result.  

Don't give up on me yet!  I'll update the blog with images from my most recent weddings as soon as life slows down.  Or until it becomes manageable.
