Jacqueline Photography : Samuel & Allison {Married} Helena, MT

Samuel & Allison had been anticipating their wedding day for a very long time. These two are high school sweethearts and their wedding day was definitely sweet! This couple is amazingly kind and precious together. They adore one another; it's obvious in the way they look at each other. Their hearts are to serve God and one another and it shows in the way they live and love.

Their wedding and reception was held at the Diamond M Ranch in Helena, MT. It's a stunning all inclusive venue with beautiful views, landscaping and also offers an indoor reception area with rooms for getting ready. Samuel & Allison chose August 15, a Monday, as their wedding date as it was a very special date in Allison's family. Allison's maternal grandparents and her parents were married on the same date. When her parents danced at the reception to the song they danced to when they were married Allison was brought to tears; I think many of us were.

Samuel and Allison decided to have a reveal prior to the ceremony. It was one of the sweetest reveals I have ever photographed. Samuel was waiting for Allison and as she came around the bend and first spotted him her eyes immediately filled with tears. She had to stop more than once to catch her breath and compose herself. When Samuel turned around and locked eyes with his soon-to-be bride it was the most beautiful sight. Their faces lit up, they whispered "I love you" and shared a touching embrace.

The wedding day had so many special moments and details. From the chosen date to Samuel's mom officiating the ceremony, which I know made it extra special for her and the couple. The first dances brought tears to my eyes as there was so much emotion in each expression. It was all beautiful. For a Monday wedding Samuel & Allison had many guests who came from near and far to help them celebrate!

Thank you for choosing me to photograph your wedding Mr. & Mrs. Skeels. I was honored to be a part of all it and celebrate with you as committed your lives to one another before God, family & friends. I pray God richly blesses your marriage and the beautiful adventure that lies before you!
