Marc and Amber's Coeur d'Alene Resort Cruise Boat Wedding

Marc and Amber have an incredible story that spans decades. Being there on their wedding day was a real treat, getting to meet their family, kids, loved ones, and witness their special moments together. These two have such amazing smiles, kind words, and a perfect chemistry that shines through in every interaction. The wedding was a beautiful cruise boat affair that will definitely stand out as one of the best I’ve ever done. I can’t wait to share these photos with you, these incredible moments, and I’m so proud of how they look.

Hunter & Becca's Wedding at Belles on the Bluff

Hunter and Becca had a wedding that stood out to me in a year filled with incredible weddings. Not only are they fun and easy to get along with, but they are also engaging, kind, and have great family and friends. They picked a venue that I genuinely enjoyed shooting at, and their day featured so many unique little touches, from Becca’s shoes and Hunter’s cufflinks, to the llamas that graced the reception (yeah, llamas). So many things at this wedding were beautiful and thought out, and I’m so excited I get the chance to share these photos with you.

Dan and Kaylene's Spokane Lake Wedding

Dan and Kaylene had an amazing wedding. Set at a very beautiful venue (a venue which is still trying to decide if they want to be well known or not) with a great view of Lake Spokane, it seemed like everything went exactly the way you’d want it to. People were all there - on time - the light was beautiful and the couple even more so. I loved meeting each of their family members, from their kids, to their kids’ families, each person I met was kind and thoughtful. This wedding was a lot of fun because of these people, but even more so because Dan and Kaylene are just great people. Look no further than their many toasts, and all the stories that came with them. Here are some of my favorites from their wedding.

Eric & Magda's Backyard Wedding in Idaho

Eric and Magda hold a unique place for me because they had one of my favorite engagement shoots of the year. It wasn’t just beautiful with an amazing couple and perfect weather, rather, it also meant I had the chance to get to know these two a little bit more. They are both kind, thoughtful, and so in love with each other - not to mention super photogenic. I am excited that I get to share some of my favorite photos from their backyard wedding, where so many great things happened. I hope you love them as much as I loved taking them!

Dorian and Renee's Belle's on the Bluff Wedding

Dorian and Renee’s wedding was beautiful. While it was quite hot that day, it had so many great moments. From their “first touch” from around the door, to when Renee walked down the aisle, there were so many great emotional moments. I also really enjoyed Dorian’s face when he saw his ring for the first time (It was a surprise for him). Either way, this wedding was filled with great people, and at a beautiful location. Very excited to share these ones with you.

Joey and Crystal's Idaho Wedding

Joey and Crystal had one of my most memorable engagement shoots of the year, being able to not just meet them, but explore the absolute beautiful area around Lake Tahoe and Reno Nevada was an absolute blast. But beyond the trip, and the location, there was another thing very unique about the whole thing - that is we spent a lot of time together. I don’t normally ride in the same car for hours with couples, we don’t normally get six or seven hours to visit - but with them I did. And man, what a privilege. They are so kind, thoughtful, and have had so many life experiences. I loved getting to know them, but even more so getting to know their kids, and their friends at their wedding took things one step further. What a great couple, and one i’m super excited to be able to share these photos with you. I hope you love them!
