The style. The smile. THE BASEBALL HAT COLLECTION. 😂⚾️

RYELN “RYE” RODRIGUEZ | BIGFORK CLASS OF 2027 🎓

Can we just take a minute to appreciate this guy?! The outfits, the layers, the sweater vest. Rye absolutely brought his A-game!

We spent the afternoon exploring some favorite Bigfork spots, chatting about everything under the sun, and wrapping things up at the baseball field with the prettiest fall sunset.

And that baseball hat collection?! Every hat represents a little piece of Rye’s baseball journey, all the way back to his very first baseball hat. HOW COOL IS THAT?! ⚾️🥹

Beyond being an incredible athlete, Rye is just an absolute sweetheart. Such a genuinely great guy, and I had the best time hanging out with him!

This one is a little bittersweet for me. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of photographing Rye’s brothers AND cousins, and somehow we’ve reached the very last Rodriguez senior. 🥹

What a gift this family has been to me.

Rye, thank you for another incredible adventure and for letting me be part of your senior year. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things ahead for you! 💛

From the cockpit to Logan Pass, this guy knows how to make an entrance! ✈️🏔️

MATTHEW VANSWEARINGEN | CLASS OF 2027 🎓

Earlier this season, Matthew was my pilot for an incredible flight experience, and this time it was my turn to take him on an adventure!

Fall colors, his Ford Raptor, and Glacier National Park showing off as usual.

Matthew is genuinely one of the nicest guys, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sport as we made our way around the mountain. He was such a trooper through every bit of it!

Matthew, thank you for trusting me with your senior photos and for being such a great guy to spend the evening with. Wishing you all the amazingness as you finish out your senior year! 💛

And with that, THAT’S A WRAP FOR LOGAN PASS! 🍂🏔️

What an incredible season! So many wonderful seniors, unforgettable adventures, and evenings I’ll be smiling about for a long time.

Until next year, GTSR! 💛

At this point, I think the Gilmores are stuck with me. 💛

One location, two outfits, and one incredible guy!

Kellan is officially the THIRD Gilmore I’ve had for senior portraits, with a couple more still coming down the line!

Always a good time with this crew, and I’m pretty happy knowing we’re not done yet!

Kellan, you crushed it! 👏

My favorite fairytales come with emerald green suits and hand-beaded details. ✨

JORDAN + LEVI. Oh, my heart. 🥹

Levi has been pretty special to me for a long time, so getting to photograph the day he married the love of his life? Goodness gracious, what a gift.

And JORDAN! What an incredible woman he found. Beautiful, creative, and just as lovely on the inside. She even hand-sewed and beaded the details on her wedding dress herself. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! 😍

These two brought their Celtic woodland fairytale to life in the most beautiful way. Levi’s incredible emerald green suit, Jordan’s stunning dress, a romantic ceremony tucked into the trees, and autumn colors that couldn’t have been more perfect.

And then there was that evening light. 🍂

Golden trees, mountains in the distance, and two people who absolutely adore each other.

But what I loved most about this day wasn’t just how beautiful everything looked. It was watching the way these two love each other. The tenderness, the laughter, the playfulness, and the pure JOY.

And those last two photographs? I can’t think of a more perfect way to end their wedding story than the two of them running straight toward their forever. ❤️

Jordan and Levi, I couldn’t be happier for you. What an absolute privilege to witness and capture this chapter of your story.

Come for the fall color. Stay for the shenanigans. 😂🍂

A little dancing, a little goofing around, and a whole lot of laughter with the Appleby crew!

We had the prettiest fall colors, golden hayfields, a big red barn, and a tree-lined road that was practically begging for family photos.

But my favorite part? All the personality these three brought along with them. ❤️

June fumbled. September understood the assignment. 🍂🔥

And HOLY SMOKES did it deliver! 🤯

Brie’s Glacier adventure was originally scheduled for June, but a rainout and a busy harvest season pushed us all the way into September. And apparently, that was EXACTLY where we needed to be.

Because THESE COLORS?! THAT LIGHT?! Are you KIDDING ME?! 😍

We explored all my fave creeks, waterfalls, tunnels, and mountains, and then Big Bend decided to absolutely steal the show with a sunset that I’m STILL not over.

Brie and her mom traveled quite a few miles to adventure with me, and I sure hope every single one was worth it. What a privilege to spend the day with these two! 💛

And that’s a wrap on the girls at Logan Pass for the season! The ladies sure know how to go out in STYLE. 🔥

One more Glacier edit coming through… let’s see what the boys have got. 😎

They have a permanent place in my heart. 💛

Years of photographs, memories, laughter, friendship, and watching these kiddos grow into some pretty incredible humans.

Love this crew more than words. And I love that I get to keep capturing their story. 🥹

THE WELLS FAMILY 🍂

She brought the fashion show. Glacier brought the backdrop. 🔥🏔️

And I was HERE FOR IT.

We wandered in the water, caught all those fall colors, and eventually made our way up to Logan Pass, where Millie pulled out that floral dress and gave the mountains a little competition.

Cozy by the lake, backlit sunshine in the fall grasses, insane views at the tunnel, and a sunset finale worthy of the set of Wuthering Heights. The variety in this gallery is WILD.

Millie, we killed it. 💛

One foot in Canada. A whole lot of Montana. 🇨🇦🏔️

Fisher’s senior session took us ALL the way up the North Fork to Moose City, and I don’t think I could have dreamed up a better adventure!

A long drive, beautiful Montana, amazing friends, and the chance to explore an incredible little piece of heaven that his family has tucked away in the middle of nowhere. Seriously, WHAT A PLACE! 😍

Sometimes an adventure like this is exactly what you need, and this one was just that for me. From the river and golden fall colors to old trucks, rustic cabins, and a quick trip to the Canadian border, we packed a whole lot of memories into one unforgettable day.

What a privilege to experience a place so special to their family. This one will stick with me for a long time. 💛

FISHER SLITER | CLASS OF 2027 🎓

The math was over my head. The shoe game? Impeccable. 😎

Andrew is proof that smart and stylish are a pretty fantastic combination. He’s genuinely one of the kindest young men, and his enthusiasm for math almost convinced me it was cool. Almost. 😂 The second he started explaining what he actually studies, I realized we were operating on VERY different intellectual levels.

He brought his family along for our Glacier adventure, and we covered some serious ground! Rivers, tunnels, fall colors, mountain views, and about a million different looks along the way. This gallery has a little bit of EVERYTHING, and I couldn’t love it more ☺️

Andrew, you’re one of a kind. 💛
