I really enjoy doing senior photos. It’s awesome to work with one person (instead of two), but also see where someone who is just thinking about their future is deciding to go. This one, however, was special in so many ways. Not just because I had the chance to go up one of my favorite mountains (Schweitzer Mountain) and take photos at sunset, and not just because I love the mountains and hiking.

Well, the wedding, as these two were married when we first met up. That said, this incredible day featured a first look, climbing a mountain and an incredible sunset and view. I absolutely loved getting to know Nick and Autumn, hearing how they met, and seeing nature in all its glory. That said, I would love to tell you a little about their story.

Read MoreRandy and Payton are two individuals I've enjoyed getting to know since the moment we first met in a coffee shop. They possess fascinating life stories, extraordinary personalities, wonderful friendships, and loving families. The beauty of their wedding lies in how these elements have seamlessly weaved together. Witnessing a couple bring together their closest friends and family to declare, "I choose you, and only you, for the rest of my life," is one of my favorite experiences—it is profoundly beautiful, and I absolutely adore it. Factor in the picturesque backdrop of the day: the stunning location at Settlers Creek, and we end up with a wedding that's breathtaking in countless ways.

Read MoreThey met in Jr. High - but weren't super close friends. They talked, hung out, but it wasn't like Tyler was calling up Krystal in the evening to see if she wanted to go hang out. They did, however, share the same friend group. It was this way all the way through high school, and once high school ended - so did their friendship. Well, kind of.
