A few weeks ago Andy & I took a road trip with our dog up to Montana to second shoot a wedding with a friend there. It was a complete adventure and one of the reasons we both LOVE this career! We made the long trek through the entire state of Wyoming which was rather pretty and came across a few tourist traps we happily stopped for including the battle where General Custer had his last stand.
We took 2 days to arrive in the little city of Helena, MT and took many, many photos along the way. The next day we went to the wedding where learned about the amazing sunsets in MT and also the giant mosquitos. The wedding was really nice and we had a lot of fun shooting the with talented Chris Rebo.
While we were up there we had decided to do a workshop and with so many people attending from all over the state we were so glad we did! I’m not sure to describe the day, it was so much fun and made many new friends throughout.
The first part of the day we were at a beautiful ranch, Kleffner Ranch where we had a styled shoot and talked about lighting. We were able to go over posing with our models, how to take beautiful detail shots and and how to use light. I fell in love with the designed table that was created by Andy & our host Chris Rebo from all of the random things we picked up along our journey. The whole table was created with things Andy & I picked up at many different antique and thrift shops and it came together so well!
We even had a cake made from Vanilla Bean Bakery, which the whole crew got to enjoy after the shoot!
We had such a great group of people and we are so thankful we got to spend the day with them! We also had a great couple to model for us with some beautiful accessories from Brides & Beaux.
I wanted to share some of the pictures from the styled part of the shoot the first half of the day that were taken with film!
Also a quick shot from one of our attendees, Jeremiah Daniel Photography from the class in action!
I will post some digital shots from the rest of the day walking around town and random ones from our whole trip back through Yellowstone in the next week as well!
