Our big skies, your wild love



I’ve been chasing adventure since the day I was born (no, literally).
I was born in a snowstorm in the middle of May in the rural Utah mountains. My uncle drove my parents through the snow to the hospital in a beater pickup truck. That sort of set the tone for the rest of my life.
I moved all over the US roughly every three years. Moving around so much, I learned quickly that nothing was ever permanent — except for pictures. Pictures were often all I had of a place or to remind me of friends. Whether it was the Black Hills, my apartment in Tokyo, or my time traveling to and working in North Korea, a lot of those memories have faded but I still have pictures to take me back there.
Before I went full-time into photography, I was an anthropologist. I love learning about people and telling stories through photography. I want to know everything about you both — what do you love, what can’t you stand, what makes your hearts soar? I’m not just there to snap a shutter, I’m there to document and preserve your legacy.
Pictures are your legacy.
And they’re as much for you as they are for the people who love you, both now and in the future.
It’s so important to invest in someone who shares your vision and who you trust to make it a reality. But more than that, the number one most important thing when hiring a wedding photographer is trusting that they’ll capture your legacy in the way you want it captured.
Because trust me: once the moment is gone, it’s gone. Don’t miss a moment of your day.

I’ve been in Montana since 2003 and married into a family that’s been here since the 70s. You’ll be hard pressed to find another photographer who knows this state better than me! I grew up with a heart for travel and a love of the outdoors but wouldn’t have called myself “outdoorsy.” But my husband and his family helped foster my love of the outdoors and now I revel in teaching that to others, no matter their age or ability.
Let me show you the beauty of our state, help you explore like a local while you’re here, and make your elopement everything you’ve ever dreamed.
Featured On
I got married here, too!
I got married in Missoula in 2005. Since then, I’ve seen how the wedding industry has evolved but one thing remains the same – there’s nowhere more beautiful for a wedding than Montana.
No matter how big or small your wedding is, you can have the wedding of your dreams in Montana. There’s venues for every size and budget, with whatever backdrop you can imagine. Whether you’re local or coming here for your destination wedding, I’ll help guide you through the whole process.
“Brigit was amazing! We were so thankful to have her for our entire wedding weekend.”
The Process — From Booking to Wedding Day and Beyond
Hiring an elopement photographer is a huge undertaking. And you don’t know what you don’t know! Let me demystify the process for you so you know what to expect when you book me.
I believe in caring for the land while also making eloping accessible for everyone
How do you practice Leave No Trace?
Here’s the thing: going off the trail makes me twitchy, and I won’t apologize for it. So many beautiful places here in Montana are also very fragile ecosystems. All those wildflower meadows you see in Glacier? Fragile alpine wilderness!
If we want these places to be here for everyone to enjoy for generations to come, we need to be conscious of how we use them now. Let’s not be That Guy, yeah? We’ll go only where we’re able to go, we’ll stay on the trail, and we’ll take only the amazing memories we make and photos we take with us.
Trust me — you can recreate responsibly and still get the amazing experience you’re dreaming of. And please, don’t trust anyone who says differently. Why? Because going off-trail and trampling wildflowers or fragile meadows hurts those places and we may not be able to go there in the future.
What if we need an ADA-accessible trail/location?
Let me assure you: you don’t have to hike very far to have an incredible ceremony. If you’re coming from out of state, I’ll help scout and vet any venue or location to ensure it meets your needs.
I’m a huge stickler for inclusivity at every opportunity. Whatever your ability, whatever accommodation you need, I’m here to make sure you get the amazing experience you deserve. I’ll help you walk down the trail or schlep out a chair for you or Grandma to take breaks as needed. The outdoors are for everyone!

The Experience
Booking a wedding photographer is a huge undertaking. How do you know who to pick? How can you trust the process? What even is the process?? Let’s walk through what you’ll get with me, and what makes me stand out, and most importantly, what I promise you’ll get before, during, and after your day.
Decades of Knowledge
Anyone can photograph a wedding here. It takes a real local to know all the ins and outs of permit acquisition, how to prepare you for your day, arrival times, when the lighting is best, and how to recreate responsibly. I care about this place not just because it’s gorgeous but because I live here.
Empathy
Hear me out — I’m, as Kendrick Lamar would say, an extroverted introvert. I still remember the stress of my wedding. I remember how awkward I felt taking our photos. I never want that for you. My number one non-negotiable is you’ll always feel comfortable on camera. And when you get your photos back, you’ll think “damn, we looked good!”
Fun!
My second non-negotiable: we’ll have fun! Weddings are supposed to be fun, right?! We’ll chat, we’ll crack bad jokes (bring me your favourite dad jokes and puns, please!), and we’ll keep everyone de-stressed. Part of being the main coordinator for your day is taking on that stress and making sure you can enjoy every moment.
A No-Nonsense Attitude
I build out timelines to account for any hiccups, give us time to adjust (say, if we have to wait for the rain to pass or someone is running a few minutes late), and make sure everyone knows what the expectations on the day are. The number one expectation? That you get to tune out the noise and celebrate your love!
Reliable Communication
Even in the midst of wedding season, you’ll never have to wait long for a reply from me. Please reach out anytime, even just to vent to a neutral third party!
Your Memories, Protected
Your memories are just that — yours. They’re always safe with me so you never have to worry about losing them. I dual shoot every wedding, meaning your files are on two memory cards the second the shutter snaps. Those files stay on those memory cards until after I deliver them to you. They get backed up to two locations while I edit (one hard drive, one in the cloud). And they’re always stored in three places (two hard drives with redundancy, one in the cloud) in perpetuity. I know the devastation of having a hard drive crash and losing things you loved. I promise I’ll always have your files so you never have to feel that devastation with your precious wedding day memories.
Getting married in Montana is easier than you think
Let’s dispel some common misconceptions
It’s expensive
Locations are hard to get to

I don’t need a whole day of coverage
