heather + andy: gallatin gateway inn

Heather and Andy are simply perfection . . . I met them today at the Gallatin Gateway Inn for their engagement shoot, and had such a wonderful time. This absolutely gorgeous couple is getting married next August here in Montana and were in town from Illinois taking care of business. They were definitely nervous and a little shy at first, but they completely blew me out of the water with their ability to relax and work the shoot :) Heather checks my blog regularly and I know was super excited about this engagement shoot, so I hope I didn't let them down! I personally find their photos to be absolutely beautiful . . .

I think this is my favorite from the day - we stepped outside to brave the wind and I just love this photo so much:

Funny story - I just posted a photo of Stella showing only the bottom half of her face! I wanted to do something similar of Heather and Andy, and without them even knowing I'd already snapped a few, Heather commented halfway through the shoot that she loved that photo of Stella! Ha!

I was all about the romance today . . .

This seems to be becoming my signature pose :)

The Inn was taking down their Christmas decorations (sniff, sniff) so I decided to just work with the chaos versus trying to run from it!

Enough commentary - enjoy the rest!

Heather and Andy, thank you for being so wonderful and fun to photograph! I am so excited for your wedding - it will be stunning! Safe travels!

*Edited to add* Andy and Heather are working with the fabulous Leslie Lukas for their wedding planning and floral design. I highly recommend Leslie - she is not only a fabulous person, but she is amazingly talented! If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further!

Great work on these beautiful photographs, Morgan! I left in such a hurry, getting home to Ennis in the storm, I am just bummed I missed it...although it looks as if having them alone in front of the camera with you was just the ticket for such great pics:) I have been working with them since the late fall... they are such a "real" couple, and these photos definitely show their fun personalities. Thanks for posting...delicious!!! Best, Leslie Lukas

Morgan, I am so jealous that I didn't know you when I got married. You take such beautiful pictures. What an absolutely gorgeous couple, you totally capture them being in love. Good job, yet again.
