Working with an Inspiring Couple

Carly and Josh were not unfamiliar with the magic of Glacier National Park. The genesis of their decision to have a National Park elopement had its roots in inspiration drawn from Lindsey & Nathan’s Intimate Glacier National Park Elopement, which I photographed in 2021. A love story told against the backdrop of towering peaks, pristine lakes, and the untamed beauty of nature sparked a flame in Carly and Josh. With that inspiration, they abandoned conventional wedding plans, opting for the raw, untouched allure of Glacier National Park! 

Exploring the Park

Starting their day at a cozy Airbnb, Carly and Josh embarked on a journey through Glacier National Park, hand in hand. We mapped out numerous picturesque locations that showcased the park's natural beauty. Each spot provided a different backdrop for their vows and intimate portraits. Capturing the essence of their love in every frame.

Vows by the Lake

One particular moment stole the show for me – Carly and Josh reading their vows on the edge of a serene lake. The rain picked up but they didn't care-tears were FLOWING and they felt every single emotion, encapsulating their unique bond. While I got to witness it all! It was seriously the sweetest! Being able to witness and document such a raw and powerful moment was an incredible privilege!
