Lexi Richardson
Owner
I was born and raised here in Montana, and I absolutely love it! I'm a huge fan of being in the mountains with my husband and our two little boys, and I take any chance I can get to head into Glacier National Park with my camera. My claim to fame is that my husband and I took 22nd in the World Wife Carrying Championships in 2018.

Lexi was just the absolute best photographer my wife and I could have imagine when we decided to elope in Glacier National Park in Montana. Given that my wife and I are from the re...
dwoods of Northern California, we didn't know the lay of the land out there so Lexi went above and beyond in taking us around the park and getting the most beautiful and stunning photos in Glacier. I'm still in awe of them and it's just mind boggling that my wife and I get to have these for the rest of our lives. Lexi Richardson's kindness and love for the art of photography was such a plus too. If you're planning on getting married in Glacier National Park or really anywhere in Montana or the world, go with Lexi. She will capture the moments you'll show your grandkids one day!

The minute we met Lexi, we knew that she was the perfect person to photograph our destination wedding. She is kind, funny and a joy to be with. We were so comfortable with her, our...
photoshoot felt like hanging out amongst friends! The photos she took were beyond stunning and captured us perfectly as a couple. Wether it was venturing into a lake (sandals and all) or hiking down a mountain side, Lexi was game for whatever it took to get the perfect shot! 5/5 stars isn't even enough to describe how strongly we recommend her as a photographer

I have spent a couple hours trying to complete this referral for Lexi. Every time my phone rings or I back out, my writing disappears. However, it is so important for me to say thi...
s and I continue to try.
I have been a professional wedding and corporate photographer for 35 years. When my youngest son announced his engagement, I knew that it would be difficult to find someone that would live up to my expectations.
The first time I talked with Lexi, there was an instant connection. I fell in love with her. Her passion for her business, her desire to know what our needs are, and her attention to detail was amazing.
The next hurdle was to pass my son‘s expectations. He also is a photographer and video producer. He also fell in love with her after talking with Lexi. So we hired her.
The wedding day finally arrived June 2025, Lexi showed up early and was ready to go. She was wonderful with our guests and the bride who was quite shy.
Lexi fit right into our crowd. The wedding was wonderful. A few days later, she sent us some sneak previews of the wedding. We knew that we would love the pictures.
Six weeks later we received all digital images in a website. My son and his bride were so happy, because they didn’t think she got a lot of the special things that happened, but she did. (She was inconspicuous) They were so happy.
Six weeks later we received all digital images in a website. My son and his bride were so happy. I was too.
If you are looking for someone who will fit in easily, and is candid and will capture the moments of your special day, hire Lexi. She’s amazing.

WOW- Lexi Richardson is truly the most amazing photographer there is!!! From the moment I reached out, I felt extremely assured about my visions & it just made me excited for the s...
ession! We originally hired her to do our engagement photos in glacier national park, but then changed our mind and decided to elope in the park!!! With only a month to make this all happen, Lexi assured me that it was still plenty of time to check all of the things off of the list (NPS permit, marriage license, hiring an officiant, etc) and told me step by step what I needed to do! Because we eloped and it was just my husband and I, we found it extremely important that the two people that would be there (photographer & officiant) would be amazing, as they were a huge part of our special day!!! When the day finally came, and we met Lexi for the first time, I knew we made the right decision! She is extremely personable, bubbly, caring, & obviously extremely talented! She helped us with poses and we didn’t feel awkward ONCE! Not to mention, the 30 day turnaround time is admirable and we were so grateful we got to see our memories within a month after getting married! The photos are literally breathtaking, and I’m extremely grateful to have these to look back on and it wouldn’t have been possible without Lexi. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer that pays attention to the details- that wants to make your vision happen, andddd knows all of the good stops in Glacier! Thank you Lexi!!!

a million gem, would be an understatement. We clicked instantly as soon as we started messaging and she took ALL of my stress away in the planning process. I hardly had to worry about anything for our elopement because she had it all handled! Well worth the 12 hour drive to get married in Glacier and have Lexi as our photographer. Trust me, we will be back and hiring her again because I cannot get enough of our photos!! Oh and her personality… it’s infectious!!! Truly amazing person and photographer!! I would recommend her a thousand times over!!

Lexi is absolutely wonderful, she went above and beyond to make our wedding dream come true! We originally reached out to Lexi with an idea (knowing it would be a stretch), and she...
assured us with no doubt our dream could become a reality. Lexi ventured on a strenuous hike with us to the top of a mountain peak in Glacier National Park and did an outstanding job capturing the most wonderful day of our lives. Lexi is professional, exceptionally creative, and timely in the delivery of the photos. I must say, she did an AMAZING, job. The most difficult part was choosing which to print and display in our house!! I look at them everyday, and I am so grateful we chose Lexi as our wedding photographer. 10/10 recommend!!
