Where is the Ranch located? 


Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch is located nine miles south of Stanley, Idaho on Highway 75. Guests who aren’t local typically fly into Boise, Idaho and take the three hour scenic drive to the Ranch. Renting a car is recommended for guests who fly in, especially for off-ranch adventures in the Sawtooths. An hour north of Sun Valley, ranch guests are close enough to explore downtown Ketchum as a day trip, or explore Sun Valley as a stopping point on the trip out to the Ranch.

To plan an unforgettable Stanley wedding, couples will need to collaborate with some off-site vendors such as a wedding planner, wedding photographer, floral designer, etc. to bring the vision to life. With Sun Valley/Ketchum and Boise being the largest cities nearby, both are great places to look for wedding vendors.

I’m Becky, a photographer based in Boise, Idaho where I live with my favorite guy and our son. I love photographing weddings—the celebrations that mark the beginning of lifelong stories that are so significant. Being invited into the most personal celebrations and intimate stories is one of my greatest privileges as a photographer. Beyond amazing locations and beautiful details, I love photography because of the people. Camera in hand, I simultaneously get to know people and give them the gift of seeing a deeper part of themselves and the people they love. 

Get to know me or send me an inquiry, I’d love to connect with you!

Wedding photography is my heartbeat. For me, it holds the perfect tension between creativity and authenticity, observation and connection. In front of my camera clients transform to friends, and behind it you'll usually find me tearing up, cheering you on, or holding my breath because of the raw goodness of the moment at hand.
