Cody, WY Wedding Photographer & Filmmaker

Alpenglow, aspens and venues where the view is the decor — Cody weddings reward a team that plans for altitude, weather and light.

Wedding photographers & videographers in Cody

Mountain weddings near Cody change their minds: a storm at three, a clear sky at five, alpenglow for ten minutes after that. We keep timelines flexible, keep an eye on the ridgeline, and are already standing where the light will land.

Olivia Layne Studios works nationwide with senior photographers and filmmakers, travel already included and a calendar kept small on purpose, so every wedding gets a first-team crew. If we have not worked your exact venue yet we visit it before your day — light, timing, logistics — so nothing about Cody is a surprise on the morning of.

The light in Cody

The hour you choose for the ceremony decides what your photographs look like, and that hour is specific to Cody. A June sunset here lands at 9:02 PM with golden hour from about 8:18 PM; by October the sun is down by 6:32 PM, a difference of 2 hours 30 minutes inside a single wedding season. Begin a Cody ceremony near the times in the table and the vows, family portraits and couple portraits all happen while the light is still soft and in front of you.

Where couples marry in Cody

The Cody venues couples ask us about most. We will not pretend to have worked every one of them, so when a venue is new to us we visit before your date and plan the day from the room itself: where the ceremony light falls, where family portraits hold up, and how long the walk from getting-ready to first look really takes.

Questions couples in Cody ask us

Do you charge a travel fee for weddings in Cody, WY?

No. Olivia Layne Studios works nationwide and travel is part of every collection, so a Cody wedding is priced exactly like one in our own neighbourhood.

Do you offer wedding videography in Cody as well as photography?

Yes. Every collection comes as photography, film, or both from one team. Combined coverage starts at $3,100, includes a complimentary engagement session, and gives you one timeline instead of two vendors competing for the same light.

Not every venue in Cody, and we would rather say so. When a venue is new to us we visit before your date and plan the ceremony light, the portrait spots and the walking time between them.

Soft, true-to-colour frames — several hundred edited photographs you own outright.

Films

Highlight film and extended edit cut from your own vows and toasts, raw footage included.

Photo & Film

One team for both, one timeline, and a complimentary engagement session.
