HIGHLIGHTS

"Carrie is amazing! We eloped at Glacier National Park, and she made the whole experience smooth and seamless. We booked an all-inclusive package with her so we had a completely stress-free wedding day. From the flowers to the cake, she took care of it. She gives you direction during the photo shoot so even if you are someone who is not super comfortable in front of the camera she will guide you into getting some breath taking photos! She is a one-stop shop for your day, and you will not regret it. I would recommend her to anyone!"

Creating here is a dream come true.

If you love Glacier National Park

And believe it to be the only place your adventurous heats should say "I do", then you need look no further for your wedding or elopement photographer. With more than nine years experience photographing weddings you can rest assured you'll have the best wedding photos possible. Let's go have an adventure under that big Montana sky and create something truly epic together.

When to Go

With snow closing much of the high country in winter and spring, Mid-Summer and early fall are the best times to visit Glacier if you want to access the whole park.

How’s the weather

The weather here has an extreme amount of variability so you need to be ready for anything. In summer hot days and cool nights are normal so bring layers. In fall mornings and nights can be quite chilly and there’s always a chance of snow.

Where to stay

The park is roughly divided in half. Most accommodations, food, shopping, and the airport are on the west side. The east side has a few hotels including the iconic Many Glacier Hotel, but few food and shopping options. 

Things to do

Drive the iconic Going to the sun Road. Book a rafting trip with the Glacier rafting company. Take a boat tour across one the majestic lakes.

What to avoid

The biggest thing to avoid would be the crowds. Plan your excursions into the park to start early to avoid the bulk of the crowds. Bring layers. Don’t forget bear spray, its grizzly country after all. And keep in mind that most things close before you’ll be back from the park.

Let’s plan it

Done dreaming of your Glacier wedding and ready to plan it? Below you’ll find links to helpful guides to plan every step of it. Still have questions? Fill out the contact form below and I’ll get back to you right away!
