erin + ben | billings, MT wedding photographer

new favorite thing? winter weddings. sure, it was freezing cold and the moment we stepped outside to take pictures of erin and bed the wind began blowing and they were freezing, but seriously. aside from the 100-feet of snow and the freezing temperatures, everything was perfect and i loved everything about it. erin was so happy and excited to get married that she couldn't even feel the cold. her adrenaline was pumping overtime and that makes for the best kind of day.

erin has been my friend for the past year-and-a-half. we met because she came with a mutual friend to bible study at my house. it was a completely God-ordained interaction because as a handful of girls sat around drinking wine and coffee and discussing our lives and crying and praying together, we became such close friends--all of us. and now we've seen two of those girls (erin being one of them) meet their husbands and get married and let me tell you, i have loved watching a relationship blossom from the beginning when she says, "i met a cute guy, you guys!" to the text she sends when they get engaged. so, we obviously love these guys a lot and they're so wonderful together. watching erin beam as she talks about the love of her life, and watching ben become a dad to erin's daughter gracie has just proven to everyone around them that these two are meant to be. evan and i are so honored when our friends trust us with their memories and allow us to be a part of their big days. so, congratulations erin & ben! we love you guys!
