Adya Marie Photography
Read reviews from clients and learn exactly what makes an AM bride.
Working with me feels a lot more like having someone in your corner than just hiring a photographer. From the beginning, I take the time to understand what actually matters to you—not just how you want things to look, but how you want your day to feel. I’ll guide you where you need it, keep things moving when they need to, and make sure nothing important gets missed—but never in a way that feels forced or overly posed.
On your wedding day, I’m paying attention to everything. The big moments, of course—but also the quiet ones you didn’t even realize were happening. I’ll step in when you need help, fix the little things no one else notices, and also know when to step back so you can just be in it. You won’t have to wonder if something is being captured or if you’re “doing it right”—you get to be fully present, and I’ll take care of the rest.
By the end of it, my goal is that it didn’t just feel smooth—it felt easy. And that when you look back at your photos, they don’t just look beautiful… they feel like your day actually felt.
Your wedding day goes by faster than you expect, and there’s so much happening all at once. I focus on capturing it as it felt—the big moments, the quiet ones, and everything in between—so you can come back to it years from now and remember it fully, not just how it looked.
Maternity sessions mean a lot to me. After going through this season myself, I know how special and emotional it really is—the waiting, the excitement, the quiet moments before everything changes. It’s an honor to capture this time for you in a way that feels soft, real, and something you’ll look back on with your child one day.
A proposal only happens once, and it’s a moment you’ll always want to remember clearly. Whether it’s a complete surprise or something you’ve planned together, I help capture it in a way that feels natural—so you can relive exactly how it felt, not just how it looked.
Elopements are simple in the best way. It’s just the two of you, fully present, without distractions. I document it as it unfolds while gently guiding when needed, so your photos feel honest, relaxed, and true to your experience.
Every wedding collection includes a fine art album, because your beautiful Montana wedding photographs deserve to be seen and experienced—not tucked away on a screen. Designed to live on display, it’s a piece you’ll reach for often and cherish for years to come.

How are the photos delivered?
Because I don't believe in making you buy the photos after you've already paid for me to photograph your wedding day, I send you every good photo I take to your email in a free online gallery.
How much coverage do i get?
That's completely up to you!
Choose between 6, 8, 10, or 12 hours of coverage. Or get a custom quote for a collection just for you.
Where are you located?
I am a Lewistown Montana wedding photographer. But traveling is one of my many passions so if your wedding isn't where I am, I'll come to you!
Do you have a second shooter?
I do! My husband Dario is my second shooter and I trust him as much as I trust myself.
Do you bring a backup camera?
Yes I do!
Your wedding day is of the highest importance to me, so I make sure to pack an extra camera just in case my initial one faces problems.
where are the best spots for photos?
I am a natural light photographer, so as long as we can see the sun, we're good! Usually wide open spaces are best so there's nothing overhead blocking the sun from giving us that gorgeous, dreamy light.
do you use flash?
I do when lighting situations call for it, such as a dark reception or ceremony area.
what is best to wear for an engagement session?
Any sort of dress or skirt.
It adds a beautiful element to the photos that I love and I'm sure you will too!
How far will you travel?
As far as you'd like me to!
If you're wedding is located more than an hour from me, I'll get you a custom quote so I can come to you.
If you're looking for dreamy, romantic fine art imagery, but a well-organized and executed process, you're in luck. Let's schedule a consultation and see if this is the right fit.
