HUGH GIVENS, FATHER OF THE BRIDE
“Here are three reasons why you should reach out to Aundrea immediately.”
Aundrea's "Photographer" title understates to the adventure, consultation, and genuine joy she offers. If you're from out of state, if you're looking for a local experience and maybe some stylish photos too, then here are three reasons why you should reach out to Aundrea immediately. (We hired her for our engagement shoot, a 2021 wedding, and an interim covid-elopement).
1. We googled/knew the beauty surrounding Glacier, but we would never have known the 15-mile 4x4 trail + scenic mountaintop Aundrea suggested for our elopement. Aundrea drove us up in one Jeep, family/friends in a 2nd Jeep. Way beyond what you expect from your photographer and lots of fun. Apart from having a mountain top to yourself, the coolest part was the surprise our friends/family had. No one was expecting an overlanding adventure up the mountain. They all arrived smiling ear to ear.
2. Super consultative, responsive, and professional. We wanted to be out of view, wanted scenic, wanted our dog present, and didn't want to spend the entire day driving. So what does Aundrea do? She sent us an epic photo portfolio of options to consider. Mountain tops, rivers, fire lookouts, etc... We chose one and then she planned the entire day. Departure time, location, sunset, angles, etc... all hands off, well beyond expectation from a photographer.
3. She's rad, super cool, and warm personality. We vibe'd over music during our engagement shoot. She showed us the bars in Columbia Falls, and while we were 4x4'ing up the mountainside, she had a genuine excitement & conversation that really eased the moment for my fiancé and I.
Put it all together, we were lucky to find her and gracious for stories (& photos!) we'll have to share. Aundrea planned, organized, led and, of course, photographed everything. Without her, we would have made concessions. She's worth every dollar she charges for the photography alone. Her willingness to make your day beyond perfect is what makes her exceptional.

“Aside from being such a talented photographer - she is one of the best people you'll ever meet.”
If you are looking to elope in the Glacier National Park area - Aundrea is hands down the BEST photographer you could pick! Outside of her amazing photography skills, she knows the surrounding area and park like the back of her hand. She helped plan & create the perfect day for our elopement - from location scouting before our big day, driving us to and from locations, to coming prepared with everything from shoeshine and snacks - on top of capturing every little moment during the day. And aside from being such a talented photographer - she is one of the best people you'll ever meet. We instantly connected beyond photographer and client - she joined us a month later to celebrate our elopement announcement with family & friends. I couldn't recommend her more! Anyone who is looking for a photographer in Western Montana should hire Aundrea.

“Aundrea is GOLD!”
If you're looking for a top-notch photographer who will go the extra mile (or ten), look no further than Aundrea! My husband and I eloped/had an intimate wedding at an Airbnb in Montana. Right after my initial phone call with Aundrea, I felt so comfortable with her, I didn't even do anymore searching! Since my husband and I weren't from the area, Aundrea was so helpful and sweet, she gave us recommendations for vendors, from food and décor to everything in between. The day of our wedding went so smoothly with the help of Aundrea's timeline that she had put together. We did not meet prior to our weeding, so I was a little nervous, but Aundrea could not have been more perfect! She made everyone feel comfortable with her jokes and light heartedness. Our personalities meshed so well together, it felt like we were old friends! Once we got our wedding album back, I literally cried, everything had turned out so beautifully. Aundrea's work captured every feeling and emotion we had that day. Her photos are literally works of art and I am truly thankful that I have these photos to look at for a lifetime. Aundrea is GOLD!

“Her photography skills are unparalleled.”
Aundrea is the absolute best! She spent the time before our wedding to get to know us and what was important to us to have captured on our wedding day. She was professional and organized and extremely easy to communicate with. Her positive energy, beautiful talent, and awesome dance moves made our day absolutely perfect. She stayed with us the whole day and even was there to help when a minor emergency arose with my nephew. She is such a kind person, so easy to be around, and her photography skills are unparalleled. We can’t say enough positive things about Aundrea!

“Aundrea was the friend we needed.”
My husband and I eloped to Montana in August 2021. We chose MT because I stumbled onto Aundrea's site and instantly fell in love with her documentary/candid style. On our first FaceTime call, she made us feel at ease and assured us she would help every step of the way. Needless to say, Aundrea exceeded every expectation, reassured every worry, and truly helped us plan our intimate elopement. She helped with the little details I got stuck on, had fantastic recommendations (shout out to our private chef Kallai and barber Tucker!), and even picked up the flowers the morning of. By the time we finally met Aundrea, we felt like we had known her forever. It was just my husband and I the day of, and Aundrea was the friend we needed as our day unfolded. She caught every moment without feeling like there was a camera in our faces which was super important for us. Aundrea was an integral piece of our elopement and the whole Montana trip. Lastly, we could not be more obsessed with our photos. They are phenomenal and breathtaking. Most importantly, they are us. Thank you Aunny!

“I have nothing bad to say about her.”
Aundrea is one of the sweetest and most personable people I have ever met! My fiancé and I had only been engaged for a few weeks prior to our shoot with Aundrea but already had a trip planned to Glacier National Park. We figured, why not? Let's find a photographer and capture some great shots in this amazing, beautiful place. Aundrea was very responsive and accommodating to our last-minute photo shoot booking. She takes her time to get to know you individually and as a couple. She genuinely loves what she does and has a great eye for capturing such beauty and intensity in her shots. Her photos tell a story and evoke so many different emotions. I love it so much! She is seriously such an amazing photographer!!! We had the greatest time with her during our visit to Glacier. It was the first time that either of us had a photoshoot done, and she made us feel so comfortable. We were literally laughing and smiling the entire time. She really knows how to capture those candid and irreplaceable moments. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend her!!! We already have several of her photos hanging around our home, and all of our family and friends LOVE them! I have nothing bad to say about her. She is truly an extraordinary photographer!!! You won't be disappointed!

“I could have chatted with her for hours!”
I have so many great things to say about Aundrea. I felt an instant connection when she came to shoot our daughter’s wedding. I could have chatted with her for hours! So much character and charm, she simply fit right in. I was sharing the sentiment around the decorations the bride & groom created for their special day and Aundrea was sure to capture all of them, an amazing keepsake for the couple for years to come. During the ceremony, she was in full-on stealth mode, we didn’t see or hear her, and when we viewed the photographs, we were super pleased with her work. A truly gifted and talented artist!
MICHELLE SENGER, MOTHER OF THE BRIDE
“She is, hands-down, the best photographer in the Flathead Valley.”
Aundrea is truly amazing and super fun to work with! I have never felt more comfortable in front of the camera and my family agrees! We all have had so much fun at both of our photography sessions! Our first photoshoot was taken in the Spring at Whitefish Lake. My little family and I walked down a few trails and casually enjoyed each other's company by the beach. She captured our true personalities in these photos and her artistic style put the icing on the cake! Every single photo turned out so good that I printed them all out for photo frames around our house. We get so many compliments on her style; they are true art! Aundrea has also taken our engagement photos, which turned out equally amazing! Our engagement photos were taken in the Winter, and she timed it perfectly, so the lighting was beautiful. We are really looking forward to Aundera taking our wedding photos in August! She is, hands-down, the best photographer in the Flathead Valley, and we are so honored to have her be a part of our special day and in our life!

“She’s down for anything!
Aundrea documented our day so perfectly, that I still look at our photos daily! She's down for anything from walking through rivers to braving snow storms and closed roads, to making sure the alpaca got the spotlight at the reception all to get the perfect photos! She got the most dreamy shots from our engagement session and every part of the big day. Now I have the most beautiful memories that I can share for a lifetime! I couldn't recommend her enough!
KARA + TYLER
“This lady is a LEGEND!”
She can relate to anyone with ease and has a smile that makes everyone feel warm and welcome. Aundrea took care and pride in our wedding photos starting with our engagement shoot so we could get to know her shooting style before the wedding. She gives great direction in a way that feels natural. On our wedding day we didn’t even notice her buzzing around getting every shot we wanted and some that we would’ve never thought of. Aundrea makes for a fast friend that we look forward to sharing with as many people as possible, so they too can get the perfect captured memories to enjoy for years to come. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
CAITLIN + CURT
“Highly Recommend!”
Aundrea was amazing as our wedding photographer! She was great with communication before the wedding and during! She is so organized and was so much help during the planning process! She is easy to work with, and a lot of fun. She made sure we were comfortable right off the bat. I could not recommend her more! She captured some amazing moments that we will all treasure forever! If you are looking for a photographer, hire Aundrea - you will not regret it!
MONICA + TYLER
“She is a full wedding service with "Photographer" as her title.”
Aundrea is the hardest working, most detail-oriented, down-to-earth person I have ever gotten the pleasure of working with! From start to finish, she is there for you with whatever you need. Need a location? An officiant? Restaurant ideas? Honestly, you name it, she can and will help you with it! She is a full wedding service with "Photographer" as her title. We hired Aundrea in 2019 to do our engagement pictures, and from that day, I knew she would photograph Jesse's and my wedding day. She was such a delight to work with, so spunky and outgoing, fitting right in with us weirdos, and I knew we were going to have the best time together! We decided on Aundrea for the raw emotion that she is able to capture, as well as the darker, more "moody" vibes her photos have - Her pictures could easily be picked out in a line up with her unique style, and we were so incredibly honored when she said "Yes!" to working with us.
As soon as we booked her, she called and went over a questionnaire she was sending over to help with some of the more difficult questions. It was a very personable thing to do and showed that she really cares about ALL her couples and families to get to know them on such a personal level. She was a HUGE help in planning - we even took a day to scout for the perfect location together! She kept going above and beyond our expectations of her. On the actual wedding day, she had made up an itinerary for us, again going above and beyond, and we had the day set! She was so personable and professional all at the same time and honestly helped that day go smooth as butter! To add to her list of services, she also was a great person to sit and talk to while we were getting ready. I shared a lot with her, thinking of all the baggage and stress of family and friends, and in return, shared her thoughts as well as her own experiences, putting my mind at ease. You don't even realize in these deep moments, she is taking pictures. Those candid shots end up being the most memorable, most fun to look at, and shine the brightest.
Her photos tell a story, and I jump right back into that day when I see what great work she has done. I cannot thank her enough for making me feel like the most beautiful bride in the whole wide world that day. She is truly a gem, and I cannot wait to work with her again!
SYDNEY + JESSE
“We felt so free and so loved.”
You know when you first meet someone, and you feel like you've known them for years? Yeah, that's the way Aundrea makes you feel - comfortable in your skin and ready to do something epic! Aundrea is wildly adventurous and encouraging, such a treat for our elopement. Our afternoon ceremony at Pray Lake in Glacier National Park featured high winds and drizzling rain. Aundrea saw the weather as an opportunity to capture a GREAT photo with romanticism and movement. She taught us how quickly the weather in the park can change and how exciting it can be to lean into the experience. She could sense we were getting anxious about heavier rain, so we drove to a few other spots, including the base of a waterfall and the top of the mountain, to use the wind to our advantage.
Aundrea encouraged me to play around and have fun in my wedding dress as she noticed I was being timid and very careful to keep it pristine. Her guidance and care for us produced absolutely breathtaking pictures. You can see what emotions we felt in each location. You look at the laughing photos, and you can understand the joy and happiness. At the end of our session, a mama and a baby bear crossed the road in front of us. We even saw wild horses running in a field up ahead. I couldn't have asked for a better day. We felt so free and so loved. We would hire Aundrea again in a heartbeat. She makes great art!

“She is way more than just a photographer - just relax and trust her 100%”
Can't rave enough about this girl! Aundrea just shot our wedding in Sept 2020, and we can't get over the detail in our photos. They are stunning! We did a raft trip with our party and hired her and our videographer for the whole day before / day of the wedding, and we highly recommend it. Aundrea shot the entire raft trip and knew every crevice of the river, followed by drinks, rehearsal, and drinks at Gun Sight. We are SO happy we had her capture it all. She is way more than just a photographer - she provides a full wedding day itinerary down to the minute & makes it so easy. Just relax and trust her 100%. She is there to laugh, cry, and party with you! I could go on; we were so impressed with her and the photos we will cherish forever! You cannot go wrong with this girl.
ASHLEY + JUSTIN
“I cannot recommend Aundrea enough”
I can’t tell you how many people have told me that I had the BEST photographer for my wedding - and I agree! Aundrea was very organized and professional, but also brought a fun and playful style that matched my wedding perfectly! If you want to capture candid and genuine moments at your wedding, I cannot recommend Aundrea enough.
TERESA + TREYTON
We can not thank her enough with being so laid back and letting us just enjoy our private elopement
Aundrea was absolutely amazing as our elopement photographer! She was very organized and provided thorough details prior to the day of our wedding. She even called to discuss how everything would go and put together a perfect timeline for our special day. Aundrea is so easy to work with, down to earth, and lots of fun. She kept us relaxed and laughing. We can not thank her enough with being so laid back and letting us just enjoy our private elopement. If you want exquisite photos that will tell amazing stories for years, she is the one to book with. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos, truly because Aundrea does her job to perfection. She captured so many amazing shots/moments that we will treasure forever! We highly recommend booking Aundrea for your wedding or just for a quick engagement shoot.

“Aundrea is up for anything!”
Aundrea went above and beyond, from our super fun engagement photos in Glacier Park to our wedding day in Three Forks, MT. My husband and I were so anxious to get our engagement photos done because, well, we had never done anything like that! Aundrea was so welcoming and funny and set us at ease. She is a professional who you can trust to get amazing shots of you, even when you are nervous! Fast forward a year to our wedding... we decided to keep our wedding date on August 1st, 2020, despite the pandemic. Aundrea was there for us every step of the way and helped us make the most memorable day ever!
She even did a day before the shoot (which I highly recommend) with us. We floated the Madison River, and I have to say I don't know many photographers who will bring their expensive equipment down a river in a tube. Aundrea is up for anything, is always down to have a good time, and is incredibly genuine. Her photographs are absolutely stunning and capture all the feels! I can't wait to start a family and have her capture more of our once-in-a-lifetime shots. LOVE HER!
