Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot

Hi! My name is Maelyn Bettinger. I’m a Montana wedding photographer with a deep love for real connection and telling love stories exactly as they unfold. Based in Montana, but always ready to travel. I work with couples who value authenticity, adventure, and meaningful moments over perfection. Whether you’re planning an intimate Montana elopement, a mountain wedding, or a destination celebration somewhere new, I approach every day with a calm presence and a warm, personal touch. My goal is for you to feel comfortable, seen, and completely yourself—so your photos reflect who you truly are, not just how your day looked. As a traveling wedding photographer, I believe the best images come from trust, laughter, and shared experience. From quiet in-between moments to the big, joyful celebrations, I document your story with intention, heart, and an eye for natural beauty—wherever your love takes you. Amavi Film is a wedding photography company based in Lolo, MT.
