We live what we offer as Northwest Montana elopement photographers & videographers.

Where there are wayyyy more cows than there are people.

Where driving 4 hours each way is a perfectly reasonable day trip. 

Where we learned videography and photography by documenting our day hikes in the Rocky Mountains and evenings fishing the Clark Fork River. 

You’ve likely stumbled upon our little corner of the internet because you’re a couple searching for a Northwest Montana or Glacier NP photographer or videographer to document your love story, and while we can DEFINITELY do that, we also want to know: 

Do you love the outdoors? Do you value traveling, making memories, seeking new experiences, saying “yes” as opportunities come up, and going with the flow? Do you value the messy in-between moments, the spit-out-your-drink-laughing moments, the spontaneously romantic moments over the perfect and planned ones? Do you crave meaning and authenticity as well as a freaking good time? 

If you just caught yourself nodding along as you read that, then you should really head over to our experience page to learn more about how we can serve you. 

Hi, I’m Shayna Lloyd - the creative behind Montana Diaries.

NW Montana and Glacier National Park Videographer & Photographer

I’m a videographer and photographer based in NW Montana and Glacier National Park, but you better believe I’m stoked to pack up my gear, and often my cute little fam, to travel all over the world telling love stories. I curate the most badass video & photo teams, and that often includes my husband, Brandon. We seek to live what we offer, meaning we prioritize traveling, hiking, time in the outdoors, and creating memorable experiences for our family.

Story-driven

We preach STORY FIRST. Always. “Reading books” was my ~entire personality~ as a kid — I was on that BELLE FROM BEAUTY AND THE BEAST grind. I’ve always known the powerful grip of storytelling, and my reverence for emotionally authentic STORY over everything else comes through in my video and photo work today.

Genuine

We’re all about documenting true-to-life moments and actual human connection. Real talk: The stiff, motionless, “stare at the camera and smile” posing isn’t our thing. 

Earthy

We draw inspiration from nature — from the Rockies, hidden lakes, the endless shades of green that you’ll only find in the Mountain West. Setting is vital to our work because how our couples move through the earth is a huge part of their story.
