Montana Proposal Photographer

Proposals

As a Montana Proposal Photographer, I know there’s something truly unforgettable about proposing in Big Sky Country. From the wide-open skies and breathtaking mountain views to the golden light that makes every moment feel magical, Montana provides the perfect backdrop for one of life’s biggest milestones.

Based in Billings, I specialize in capturing surprise proposals and engagement moments with a blend of authenticity and artistry. Whether you’re planning an intimate proposal in Billings or a scenic mountain getaway in Red Lodge, I’m here to help document your story in a way that feels genuine, emotional, and uniquely Montana. From the planning stages to the moment they say “yes,” I’ll help create and preserve memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

Jade + Sam – Wild Bill Lake Proposal

Sam enlisted Jade’s sister and brother to help create the perfect proposal! The plan was for the couple to go to Red Lodge for the day and Sam wanted to “check out” a potential fishing spot, so they stopped at Wild Bill Lake.

Little did Jade know that he was communicating with her siblings the whole time to guide them to the right spot. There, they had planted a deer shed with the words “Will you marry me?” on it.

To say that Jade was shocked is an understatement! She jumped with excitement, especially when she saw her sister and brother emerge from the trees. It was such a fun & special moment to photograph and I’m so happy for them!

Alyssa + Charlie – Greenough Lake, Montana Proposal

This cute couple took their annual road trip from Wisconsin to Montana and then on to Wyoming. After camping in Red Lodge for a night, they decided to hike at Greenough Lake the next day.

Alyssa had no idea that Charlie contacted me weeks earlier to plan the perfect proposal as they reached the lake! The whole moment felt so exciting, and Alyssa’s smile lit up the second Charlie showed her the ring. Her hands shook nonstop because the surprise completely caught her off guard! It was the best day ever!!
