About

Your wedding day doesn’t slow down for missed moments, bad weather, or tight timelines. Neither do I.

I’m a professional wedding photographer and filmmaker specializing in weddings, elopements, and adventure-based celebrations. My background in the military and law enforcement trained me for logistics, pressure, and precision—skills that translate directly into managing complex wedding days without chaos.

I don’t stage moments. I anticipate them. I build timelines around light, movement, and breathing room so your day flows naturally. When things change—and they always do—I adapt without stress so you don’t have to.

My style is true-to-color, cinematic, and grounded in storytelling. You receive full galleries. No image caps. No travel fees within Montana. No gatekeeping.

If your wedding involves terrain, weather, emotion, or unpredictability, you’re in the right place.

Joe is awesome!

Joe did an amazing job for us! Pictures turned out great, he also did our ceremony. He gave us different locations to choose from, had weather forecast, was super flexible, and thoughtful. He made our special day a real joy. We appreciate you Joe! I'd highly recommend utilizing his services for your dream wedding in Whitefish, MT.

The photographer that does it all

Choosing Joseph as our photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding in Montana! He exceeded all of our expectations, paid attention to detail, focused on our priorities and vision, and executed the photos perfectly. I am so grateful we have beautiful and timeless photos to remember our special day. Everything was professional from planning, to executing, and receiving our photos. He gave us amazing recommendations, was personable and professional with planning and details, and came well prepared on our big day.

Hiring Joseph was like hiring a dear and trusted friend.

was immediately impressed with Joseph because he was quick to respond and easy to communicate with and showed up on time. From our first meeting I knew Joseph was going to be great to work with. He listened to and heard the vibe we were going for. He made excellent suggestions but was never pushy. He went over and above when he guided us through the wedding rehearsal. On the wedding day where excitement and emotions were running high, Joseph was calm and patient. It felt like we’d hired a long time friend to do the photos. I would certainly recommend Joseph Mayden Photography for any of your photo desires.

Best wedding photographer!!

Joe exceeded our expectations as our photographer, he did our engagement shoot as well as our wedding and did an amazing job! Very professional and easy to work with. We did not have a wedding coordinator and had to do our wedding rehersal the day of the wedding and Joe was a massive help in making sure things ran smoothly and everyone knew what to do. He ran around all day for us capturing every moment. It was a hot day and he was able to wrangle up both our families and get photos done quickly. All of our pictures came out beautifully, a perfect mix of candid pictures and posed. We got many compliments on his professionalism from guests and family as well.

Beyond amazing experience!

Joe did the most fantastic job we could have hoped for and more. I was told about him by a friend of mine. We met to discuss details after emailing what his fees were and what to expect. It was very professional, but instantly felt like old friends. We both don't like pictures, but he made us feel at ease. We would recommend him to anyone who needs a person who takes amazing photos that capture the special moments of your day. Thank you for endless memories!

Amazing photography session

We had the pleasure of doing a couples photo session with Joe and he made the experience so fun and easy! Getting professional photos done can sometimes feel awkward but he made us so comfortable and directed us on how to pose for the photos yet still made it feel like "us". Thanks Joe, for capturing memories we will cherish for a lifetime! :)
