Brianna & Sam: A Beautiful End to a Montana Chapter
Some sessions feel more like a celebration than a photoshoot—and this one absolutely did. Brianna and Sam brought the party to their University of Montana graduation session, and I’m still smiling thinking about it. Champagne in hand, boots on, and the iconic “M” as their backdrop, these two best friends made the most of every moment—and we did not miss a single photo opportunity!
Their energy was contagious. From laughing over inside jokes, to listening to the Jonas Brothers over my iPhone speaker, to popping bottles like the true grads they are, Brianna and Sam reminded me exactly why I love capturing these milestones. It’s not just about the tassels and gowns—it’s about friendship, growth, and the unforgettable joy of finishing a chapter hand-in-hand.
Missoula showed off with the perfect golden hour, and these two matched the glow with effortless style—white dresses, matching Theta stoles, and the most incredible red boots (seriously, scroll down to see them!). They brought all the personality, and I was lucky enough to be there to freeze it in time. We even were some of the first few people to be able to take grad pics under the new UM sign that finished construction a few weeks before the end of the semester. How lucky were we?!
To Brianna and Sam—thank you for being a dream duo. Congratulations, grads. The world is lucky to have you!
