Back in April, I hosted a Styled Event Out West. We toured all around Montana and Wyoming and made our home base Island Park, ID. Niki & Alejandro were the real MVPs as they agreed to travel with us all the way from South Carolina to be our models for this stunning Island Park elopement shoot. Tucked away in a secluded neighborhood surrounding a frozen solid lake, we created the most stunning details! The amazing Yellowstone National Park was just minutes away, and before this shoot, we were able to take a brief drive into the park to catch a glimpse of the Grand Prismatic Spring. We also saw a couple wolves, bald eagles, and a ton of bison who got reallyyy close to the car. They were not shy at all!

My favorite part, though, was getting a chance to host this shoot in the snow! April starts to warm up out west, but there is still lots of snow on the ground, and I was thankful for the opportunity to grow my shooting capabilities in this new environment. Lots of love for N & A!!

Special thanks to these amazing vendors!
