A few years back I did a shoot for Rocky Mountain Bride. I was kinda just starting out and they had reached out to me to shoot for them. It was a good learning experience and gave me a good idea of what is needed to put on a styled shoot. So I’ve done a couple other styled shoots, one by myself and one in collaboration with Montana Bride, and now this Chico Hot Springs Intimate Wedding styled shoot.

So fast forward to 2017! I’ve kinda just become a ask for what you want person…to a certain degree haha. So I reached out to Rocky Mountain Bride and said I’d love to shoot with them again on a styled shoot, and to keep me in mind! I figured that’s better than waiting. So Taylor, the RMB editor in chief  had a couple shoots planned out and I picked the Chico shoot. I grew up going to Chico and I love paradise valley, so I was pumped! After getting the initial email from Taylor with the vendors and mood board from Emma from Elm Events and Design, I was in love. I checked out everyone’s work and just kept getting more excited, it was gonna be a good shoot. On the schedule was dog sledding, so there’s also that. 

Chico graciously put me up for the night before the shoot, as we were starting in the morning. I had the place to myself until late evening when Sue of The Wild Blume showed up! We had a beer and chatted before she headed to bed. She’s a badass and got up way early to set up the florals before leaving…I didn’t even see her the next day, but her floral magic was everywhere! 

We started with the dogsledding adventure. Our models, Bailey and Alex, had the cutest outfits ever and we were all kinds of jealous cause they got to dogsled and we didn’t. But the whole experience of seeing the dogs work and how well behaved they were was incredible, definitely on my bucket list! Even the details there with the mustard colored blanket and hot cocoa was thought out, Emma did such a wonderful job. 

After saying our goodbyes to the the puppers, I shot the cozy wine cellar back at Chico Hot Springs while Brittnee did a hair and makeup change on Bailey. Brittnee is a seriously talented gal and always nails all the looks. So in a short amount of time she gave Bailey a fresh look for the bridal part of the day. The models joined us at the incredibly styled table and enjoyed some food and glass of wine. Then we all headed up to Chico’s Field of Dreams for yet another amazing set up. I loved the intimate set up at the gazebo with the incredible view. As it was winter, a jacket was quite fitting, and in my opinion the jacket added so much to the entire shoot. Like all brides should probably have a leather jacket, a bold colored leather jacket. Add some mountains and a little champagne and you’ve got yourself the perfect place to say “I do”.  I’ve organized all the photos here to be in the intended order…not the order of how we shot the day ☺️

There’s nothing better than collaborating on a shoot, and it was a pleasure to get to photograph everything that this group put together. I feel like we were all a perfect fit for the vision, I hope you agree! And if anyone needs incredible vendors in Bozeman or beyond, I highly recommend every single one of these amazing ladies. This is just one of SO MANY gorgeous shoots/weddings that are featured in the new Rocky Mountain Bride magazine, so you should definitely go check out the whole magazine. Especially if you’re planning your Montana wedding!

    Hello there! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any suggestions? Feel free to visit my page: tracfone 2022

    I look after a vape store submission site and we have had a listing from a vape store in the United States that likewise sells CBD products. A Month later on, PayPal has written to use to say that our account has been restricted and have asked us to take away PayPal as a payment solution from our vape shop website directory. We do not offer CBD products such as CBD oil. We solely provide promotion and marketing solutions to CBD firms. I have had a look at Holland & Barrett– the UK’s Well known Wellness Retail store and if you take a good look, you will see that they offer for sale a fairly comprehensive series of CBD product lines, particularly CBD oil and they also happen to accept PayPal as a payment method. It seems that PayPal is employing twos sets of rules to many different companies. Due to this stipulation, I can no longer take PayPal on my CBD-related site. This has restrained my payment choices and currently, I am greatly reliant on Cryptocurrency payments and direct bank transfers. I have talked with a solicitor from a Magic Circle law practice in The city of london and they explained that what PayPal is undertaking is altogether unlawful and discriminatory as it should be applying a systematic criterion to all companies. I am yet to speak to another attorney from a US law firm in The city of london to see what PayPal’s legal position is in the United States. In the meantime, I would be extremely appreciative if anyone here at targetdomain could offer me with substitute payment processors/merchants that work with CBD companies.
