Alaska, with all its wild beauty, is a photographer’s dream. And Mackenzie of Arctic Rose Photography gets to live that dream in photographing brides and grooms against the state’s stunning backdrop. Today’s featured couple, Abby + Kyle, flew cross-country, all the way from Florida to spend their honeymoon in Alaska — and to have their bridal portraits taken.

"We took the 45 minute drive up to Murphy Dome where we then embarked on an adventure: Alaska style,” said the photographer. "We hiked through the unstable, squishy, moss covered ground until we were all dripping in sweat. When we finally rounded the corner and trailed up the last peak, we decided it was all worth it. The hills rolled for miles as the Alaskan midnight sun kissed the earth. Abby and Kyle helped each other along the long trek with loving embraces, giggles and a hint of dancing.”

What an amazing adventure to capture such equally amazing photos! You can see Abby wearing our Madison James MJ316 gown in the gallery below. Happy Wedding Wednesday!
