The

Montana Wedding Experience

With EllieAna

Your wedding day is truly a once in a lifetime moment, one you deserve to be fully present for. My process allows you to feel every laugh, every tear, and every feeling, while I quietly capture it all in the most honest way. I’m there to guide you only when it matters: coordinating family photos so they flow seamlessly, offering a gentle nudge toward the best light, and making sure you look and feel your absolute best. I’m the most laid-back photographer (who still gets sh*t done) you’ll ever meet.

Your wedding is one of the most intricately planned days of your life, and you deserve to remember it vividly. That’s where I come in. I document the emotions, the energy, and the smallest details so you can soak it all in and relive it for years to come with every image feeling just as alive as the moment itself.

I’m the Right Fit If…

You’re madly in love and planning a wedding that’s all about celebrating that love with your favorite people in the world. You want your day to feel genuine, emotional, and full of connection, not forced or overly posed. And if you’re dreaming of some absolutely killer party photos?... That's my jam.

Love Notes from My Couples

  • Maya & Andy

    “EllieAna was truly amazing. She went above and beyond in her services and felt like a part of the wedding party throughout our family day. She was accommodating of our unconventional wedding plans and captured our special day exactly as we had always dreamed of! Our day was seamless thanks to her hard work, knowledge, and vision. We will cherish our photos forever and are SO glad that we chose EllieAna! We can’t thank her enough!”

  • Bob & Kaelen

    “We cannot thank EllieAna enough for the stunning photos she captured on our special day. Every shot is so beautiful, perfectly capturing all the emotions, joy, and little moments that made our wedding so memorable. Not only are her photos breathtaking, but she was also so so helpful throughout the entire day. She was supportive, calming, and always knew exactly where to be and what we needed. She truly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. We’re so grateful to have such beautiful photos forever. Highly, highly recommend!”

  • Brianne & Collin

    “Hire EllieAna; if you don't, you've already made a mistake. She perfectly captured the essence of my husband and I; nothing was staged, forced, or artificial. I have a few friends that got married this summer, and every single one has independently told me that Ellieana's photos were better than theirs. Oh, also, she's so cool, so easy to work with, and just a great person. Two thumbs way, way, way up.”

  • Keerstyn & Jake

    “Ellie is an amazing photographer. Plain and simple. She photographed our wedding and I’m still processing what an amazing day it was. She has such an eye for candid moments and I’m so grateful she was there to make sure we remembered every step of our special day. Being two people that don’t enjoy pictures, we were surprised how comfortable she made us feel. Therefore we were able to genuinely enjoy the whole experience. She is such a pleasure to work with and did a beautiful job working around our small, intimate, forest dream wedding. We will cherish these photos for a lifetime. Thank you EllieAna.”

  • Robin & Nick

    “We were lucky enough to have EllieAna photograph a 'date night' session of us. It was fun and natural. Not to mention our gallery was beautiful and so much more than we could have expected. Autumnal and gorgeous! She was welcoming of our weirdness and all the laughs. My husband and I would definitely go back to her for another session!”

  • Amber & Garrison

    “EllieAna was beyond amazing! She captured every special moment from my wedding day and I could not be more obsessed with the photos. They turned out absolutely stunning, and we’re so grateful to have these memories beautifully preserved. Professional, talented, and easy to work with—highly recommend!”

  • Trever & Stella

    “You captured my favorite things about us, like Trever’s crinkly eyes when he smiles at me.”

The Need-to-Knows

  • Couples and engagement session within 2 weeks and Weddings between 6-8 weeks!

  • Once you inquire, I reply with three different customized collections. Once you’ve chosen a collection, paid your 30% retainer and signed the contract, you’re all set!

  • As soon as you have secured your date and venue, you should be booking your photographer. I book on a first come first serve basis, so if you wait until the last minute I might not have your date available. May and June are normally my busiest months so don’t wait!

  • I have been documenting weddings since 2019 when I graduated from the Rocky Mountain School of Photography. Being a professionally trained photographer has given me the opportunity to approach every wedding with confidence, intention and the deep understanding of the gear I use. As well as the knowledge of art to meaningfully create every photograph for you.

  • I specialize in Montana weddings and engagements. I previously photographed anything and everything people related such as seniors and families, but when I learned that my true passion was documenting love and couples, I took a step back from the other forms of photography as I believe there are other photographers near me that could document those moments in your life much better than I can. If you would like a family or senior portrait session, I would be happy to give you my sincerest recommendations.

  • I photograph with a dual SD card camera which means I have an immediate copy of every photo as I leave your wedding. I then upload to my computer and back them up to two different external sources. Which means I have a total of 5 copies at any given time until I deliver your gallery. As soon as the gallery is delivered to you, it is your responsibility to back them up in multiple places! I do everything in my power to make sure that never happens.
