WILD SUMMIT PHOTO
Montana & Glacier national park Elopement Photographer capturing love in wild places
Hellllo, I'm Kim!
Welcome to Wild Summit Photo! Thank you so much for stopping by, I am so happy you're here!
I’m an elopement photographer who feels most at home on mountain trails, dipping in alpine lakes, and chasing golden light in wild places. When I’m not photographing epic elopements, you’ll find me hiking, camping, or planning my next road trip. Basically, if it involves the outdoors and a little adventure, I’m in!
I specialize in helping couples have a FUN & STRESS FREE wedding day. Whether we’re exchanging vows on a glacier overlook, popping champagne on a lakeshore, or dancing barefoot in the woods, I’m here to help you take a bit of that stress of your shoulders and guide you through it all.
If you’re dreaming of a wedding day that feels like an unforgettable adventure instead of a formal event then you’re exactly where you need to be.

"The photos Kim captured are breathtaking. Everyone who sees them says they look straight out of a fairytale. Kim has such a gift for capturing the stunning beauty of Glacier and placing her clients within that beauty."
- Kayla & Jacob Willett
Big Bend was the spot I knew I wanted photos at but the weather had other plans with heavy fog. Kim handled it so professionally by quickly using an app to check visibility across the park and adjusted our plan to find the most beautiful clear spots on the east side. On the way back, the fog lifted, and she made time for us to swing back to Big Bend which I'm so incredibly grateful for!
a few reasons Why Eloping might be perfect for you.
Eloping allows couples to share their vows in a more private and intimate setting, focusing solely on their connection without the presence of a large audience. I find this extremely helpful for those who might be introverted.
Eloping is often more cost-effective than hosting a traditional wedding, as it eliminates many of the expenses associated with a larger ceremony and reception. Plus, you can make a vacation out of it!
For couples who value adventure and romance, eloping offers the opportunity to exchange vows in unique and picturesque locations, creating a memorable and romantic experience. And no, you don't need to be an extreme outdoor enthusiast to have an adventure elopement!
REDUCEd stress
Planning a smaller elopement is generally less stressful and time-consuming than organizing a large wedding. Less lists and moving parts to keep on track. The best news is, I am here to help you every step of the way!

some recent elopements
My husband can feel a little awkward around the camera, and I am a bit goofy, but she made us feel comfortable and was able to get us to laugh and relax enough to get some incredible shots!!
The end of our day brought pouring rain and wind and Kim didn’t even hesitate- she pulled the rain gear on from head to toe, grabbed an umbrella and got those shots for us! We have only seen the sneak peeks so far and are seriously stunned that it’s us and that they’re ours. She captured our love and moments from the day incredibly but also the beauty of Glacier too. If you want someone down to earth, who will gladly adventure with you and produce breathtaking photos for your elopement, we Cannot recommend Kim enough!!
