Cou Cou Studio bio picture

Welcome to Cou Cou Studio ©


Cou Cou Studio is based in Missoula, Montana and provides wedding photography in Missoula and across the state.  At Cou Cou Studio © we believe in modern photos with stories to tell.  Happy, funny, breathtaking, ridiculous stories.  On a scale of importance from 1 to 10 we rate creativity with a 23.  We are obsessed with making clients ecstatic and consistently exceeding expectations.  We believe you share in our love of life, frivolity and fantastic photography.  And a day-in-day-out fascination with color, composition and artistic expression for good measure.

So let's start a conversation.  Let's start talking about what kind of images you believe in.  What kind of moments you want to freeze and how Cou Cou Studio © can be a part of them.  Every story has to start somewhere.  We hope yours starts with us.  You can also follow us on Twitter or fan us on Facebook.

The Meuter family made the trek up to Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park earlier this Fall for a family photo session.  They were as fun as always and after a quick rain shower, the weather was spectacular.  Photo shoots like this are always extra fun to me because you never know exactly what will […]

Ginny and Matt :: San Francisco Wedding :: Headlands Center for the Arts Part II

Outside my window right now it is a snowy, wintery, wet mess.  All the more reason it’s been so great to edit thru Ginny and Matt’s San Francisco wedding.  Beautiful weather and unseasonably warm temperatures were the order of the day for this sweet celebration at Headlands Center for the Arts.  No detail was left […]

Best of 2011 :: Montana Destination Wedding Photographer ::

It’s that time.  End of the year list time.  It’s one of those things that I love reading what other people have to say and then I procrastinate forever about doing my own.  I’m really lucky to consistently have great clients who I love working with every year.  And I’m normally so focused on what’s […]

Kari and her family were so much fun to shoot.  Despite cold temps and foggy/snowy weather this crew was still game for a photo session in the field outside their home.  It’s hard to go wrong with nice people, hilarious dogs, and Montana for a background.  Thanks for a great session guys!

Montana Portrait Photographer :: Monica and Teague ::

In short: Monica and Teague are ridiculously fun to be around.  Despite the rain, despite the cold, and despite being pretty drenched by the end of the shoot they were still up for running and jumping in the rain.  I had a great time shooting them running around at their home in Whitefish playing follow […]

:: love is all there is :: atlanta baby photography ::

Molly and Chip and their new little girl Hollis were such a treat.  Despite the fact that the air conditioning was out at their house in Atlanta (while it was 90+ degrees outside) they were great subjects and gracious hosts.  We had a wonderful time shooting around their new home.  Such a happy family.  Thanks […]
