Sam + Steph …(and Ashley too!)

Ok, so I’ve been promising and promising to share more about our trip to Montana.

Here’s the scoop. My cousin (who’s like a sister to me!) was getting married. When we were little we made one of those “pacts” about how we both would be each others’ maid of honor when the we did eventually get married. I know, I know, we didn’t think that through… unless it had been a double wedding, one of us would turn out being a matron of honor! So, you guessed it. I got to be in a wedding (for once, I know!). It was an amazing wedding, and although there were some minor issues along the way, things still worked out wonderfully and everyone had a great time.

And, since I’m sure you’re going to ask me “did you photograph the wedding?” The answer is no. Well, kinda. I wasn’t the photographer, being family and all, but Sam and Steph’s photographer was kind enough to let me (and Steven) capture the moments throughout the day. No, I wasn’t glued to my camera I promise. I made a concerted effort to step out of photographer mode and enjoy the spotlight as a matron of honor!

All the same, I couldn’t resist the urge to capture some of these amazing memories for my wonderful cousin, her new husband (Sam), and the most darling flowergirl ever (Ashley, who’s Sam’s daughter). It was sooo extremely cute to see how excited she was!!

Congratulations Sam + Stephanie!!!!

Now, this next picture, I didn’t have Sam + Steph’s actual rings, but I really loved the wedding favors so I used Steven’s ring and my ring for this shot. All of the rocks were hand-painted by my aunt, and were gathered from a few meaningful locations in Montana.

Another shot of the blue cowgirl boots!

Sam’s buddies from the National Guard arranged for a firetruck escort for the limo (well, not a limo really, but awesome classic car!) that we rode in.

Had to share a shot of Steph actually wearing her shoes!

Steven captured this shot just as the limo was driving off. Lovely, lovely!
